Ready to spread your wings a bit? Try the Tags & More add on kit. Item 149652 $9.00 to make 10 tags and accessories. You can use the block and ink from the Looking Up Card Kit or add on the Delightful Day Stamp set. Item 149466 $15.00 and the Pretty Peacock full sized ink pad. Item 150083 $7.50. Toss in some other accessories if you want. And boom. You have now made cards and tags. Buy all the supplies with one easy item number. Item 152864 $48.50. (stamp set, Delightful Day, Clear Block C, Pretty Peacock full sized ink pad, Mini Pizza Boxes in white, Tags & More accessory kit, Stampin' Dimensionals - must for any crafter)
Here is another way to quickly and easily make handmade cards or other paper crafting projects - use the Magnolia Lane Cards product suite. Item 152868 $45.50.
Magnolia Lane Cards from brochure
The product suite, as I like to call them, includes the Magnolia Blooms stamp set, Clear Block D, 2 Stampin' Spots, Magnolia Lane cards and more, and some SNAIL adhesive (refillable). Of course you can order each item separately, as you can do also with the Tags and More Product Suite Kit.
The Magnolia Lane Cards Suite coordinates with a full product suite in the Annual Catalog, starting on page 36-39 in the 2019-20 Annual Catalog. Or HERE for the online resources.
The brochure does a far better job than I can do, walking you through expanding your supplies and skills by adding on stamp sets where you get to design your own projects by adding in just a few new supplies. Then you can step up to coloring in your images and punching out images. By now I bet you are really feeling creative and successful.
Note: The items in the brochure are available for online purchase, but are not directly listed on the website. Just type in the item number in the search field of the online store.
Another simple and easy way to start creating is to subscribe to Paper Pumpkin! Stampin' Up!s monthly box subscription service. Creativity delivered right to your door. Each month you receive a stamp set, an ink spot (remember what those are? see above), adhesive, and all the supplies pre-cut and scored to make the months kit. Kits vary from cards and envelopes, to tags, to gift packaging, home decor, and more. $22.00 each month, or prepaid subscriptions in 1, 3, 6, 12 months save even more. Learn more here.
