Welcome to the March Maui Achievers Blog Hop where I’m sharing a Mother’s Day card.
Welcome to our monthly Maui Achievers Blog Hop. We’re a group of Stampin’ Up! demonstrators from around the world who have achieved the Stampin’ Up! bonus of the Maui trip. We want to celebrate this achievement by organizing a monthly hop which helps us to continue to inspire you creatively.
You may be starting here or have come from someone else’s blog – either way there’s a list at the end of this post to help you move around all the different blogs and get many amazing ideas. We all have our country listed – so if you’re looking for a demonstrator these are top demonstrators in their country and would love to help you with your Stampin’ Up! shopping or if you’d like to join our Stampin’ Up! teams.
This time of year brings a lot of different events and holiday to celebrate: Easter, graduations, weddings, Mother’s Day, and Father’s Day. Even though we may not be able to celebrate this events in person at this time, we can definitely send a card. I chose to feature a Mother’s Day card.
Maui Achievers Blog Hop: Mother’s Day Card
I actually made two cards for this hop. I can’t decide which one I like better. Please leave me a comment and let me know which card you prefer. I love, love, love the designs and color scheme of the Best Dressed 6 x 6 Designer Series Paper stack. And, the coordinating stamp set, Dressed to Impress offers the Mother’s Day sentiment and the pretty flowers. That’s where I started for the inspiration. I found a layout I like and went to work.
All of the Designer Series Paper comes from the same package. It’s fun to see the difference in the card by playing around with the different designs. I stamped the flowers in Stazon ink and colored them with a blender pen and the following colors: Old Olive, Daffodil Delight, Highland Heather, and Blackberry Bliss.
See a list of the products I used to create these cards at the very end of the post, after the list of blog hoppers. Be sure to visit all of them and leave a comment.

Happy Tails Treat Cups
Hello Stampers!
I had a really fun in-home class this week featuring Stampin’ Up!’s Happy Tails Bundle—the stamp set and coordinating Dog Builder Punch. For each class, I love to give everyone a welcome treat. Most often, it includes chocolate. But dogs can’t have chocolate, so I prepared a treat for all of our four-legged friends out there.
This project uses Stampin’ Up!’s Sweet Cups. There are 10 undecorated cups in each package for $8.50. That’s a great bargain. You can then decorate them any way you like. To help you add Designer Series Paper to the bottom of the cup, Stampin’ Up! released a PDF template. Contact me, and I’ll send you one via email.
I printed the template (recommended at 100 percent), trimmed out the pattern, placed the pattern over my Designer Series Paper, and then hand cut. I rolled the piece around the cup and adhered with Stampin’ Up!’s Tear and Tape.
For this cup, I used the Botanical Butterfly Designer Series Paper, available free as a Sale-A-Bration item with a $50 purchase (before tax and shipping). At first look, you might think this paper features only butterflies, but the flip side offers some great basic, black-and-white designs.
For a look at all of the products I used in today’s treat for your pup, look at the thumbnail graphics below. Click on any of them to be taken directly to my online store where you can shop 24/7.
The Happy Tails Bundle is offered at a 10 percent discount (for $31.50) when you purchase it as a bundle.
Please let me know if you have questions. I’m happy to help!

Feb 16, 2019 | 2019 Sale-A-Bration, Gallery, Painted Seasons, Thank You Cards |
Hello Stampers!
Stampin’ Up!’s Sale-A-Bration just got even better! Remember, for every $50 and $100 purchase, you get to choose a free and exclusive item from the Sale-A-Bration brochure. And there are some really fun products that you’ll be able to use in your craft projects. Selections include stamp sets, Designer Series Paper, some luscious foil paper, and more.
Today, Stampin’ Up! added more new products to the mix. For a $50 purchase you can select either the All Adorned stamp set or the Country Floral Dynamic Textured Impressions Embossing Folder. At the $100 level, you may choose the Painted Seasons Bundle: a Distinktive stamp set and coordinating package of Designer Series Paper. (Hint: Beginning March, there will be a matching framelit set available for $28.)
I’ve created today’s card using both the stamp set and the paper. I’ve also included a sentiment from a set (Kindness & Compassion) found in the Annual Catalog.
Thanks for stopping by today! If you haven’t participated in Sale-A-Bration yet, what are you waiting for? Who doesn’t like free?
I’d love to help you place an order!
Kim
