Hand Made Cards

March Madness Cards & Bingo

Get Ready For An Awesome Card Making Event!

Are you ready for the Madness? This is the best kind…we have card making with a goodie bag of current Stampin’ Up! products, pillow gifts, door prizes, game prizes and a crazy amount of food and fun! Join me at the Lynde Lodge, 2500 Rt 2, in Hermon Maine on March 8.

Card Making, Games & Prizes

Besides regular Bingo (for Stampin’ Up! prizes galore), I love to extend the gift giving with Let’s Make a Deal for even more winning potential, and in between rounds of Heads or Tails. No matter what your “skill level” or “luck at winning”, you will be a winner at this event.

Pick Your Event Price

It’s Your Lucky Card Making Game Playing Day

My in person stamping events typically draw in less than 20 stampers. That means the odds of winning at my event are greater.

And at my in person events, the prizes are bigger and heavier {hey, this saves me so much on shipping! My Online Bingo prizes need to be more “postage friendly” 😉 }. Make sure you have room in your vehicle to haul away your goodies from the day.

Maine March Weather Factors

March in Maine…right?! We never know what the weather will be during this tricky time of year. Snow, ice, rain, wind? Any of those situations are possible.

So what if we don’t have the perfect day to venture out of the safety of our homes? Due to the time of year this event is occurring, I have changed my “Can’t Make It Refund Policy” for March 8.

If the event occurs as scheduled and you are unable to attend at the last minute, you have these options: pick up your goodie bag locally, pay to have it shipped to you, or receive a refund of your event price minus a $5 transaction fee.

If the event is canceled due to inclement weather (hey, this is Maine and I am rolling the dice–something that you may be doing for real at my fun filled games event!), you have these options: get a full refund of your event price, or attend this re-scheduled event at a date to be determined.

Bring These Items to the Cards & Bingo Event

Wondering what to bring to this stamping event?

• Your basic tool kit, adhesives, bone folder, scissors, etc

• A paper trimmer

• Extra Cash to purchase additional Bingo Boards

• A stamping wish list to use if you win the Grand Prize for FREE product

You may also want to wear your lucky socks…or whatever it takes to win!

This event is being held at Lynde Lodge in Hermon Maine with plenty of room, so bring a friend and stamp the day away with us. 

With the amount of games and prizes involved, you are sure to be a winner! And the good memories you will make will be priceless…especially if you love playing games as much as I do!

January 2025 Card Maker Club

New Year, New January Card Maker Club For You!

Maybe this is the year you start out with a very special card making experience! While it is true you could join Card Maker Club at any time, January is a great start for new beginnings. In fact, when you are a member for 6 consecutive months, you will get a special thank you gift from me.

Club Members Save On The Featured Bundle

When you are a member of the Card Maker Club, you get to decide if you would like to add on the bundle to your monthly kit, at catalog price. This saves you shipping and tax (I pay that for you!). I will invoice you separately for the bundle price, and ship it to you in your monthly kit.

New To Club? Expect a Surprise Gift

I have been working on making Card Maker Club better than ever. There are lots of new things in store for 2025, so if you have been a member of Card Maker Club for awhile, look forward to some fresh changes to make it even more amazing!

If you are brand new to Card Maker Club, signing up for the first time (or coming back after a long time), look for a special Welcome Gift in your first Card Maker Club Kit.

Card Maker Club is Better With Friends

We all know that sharing our favorite experiences is better when we do it with a good friend (or two!).

Don’t let your friends miss out on this. In fact, when you both receive your kits, you could gather together and start stamping. You can have your own little creativity party, the hard work of card making is done for you with this monthly kit subscription. That means full fun ahead!

A new perk to my Card Maker Club is a Referral Program. When your friend stays in club for 3 consecutive months, you will get a Referral Gift from me. Just let me know if you have a friend signing up.

Wreath of Blooms Kit Class

Are you ready to get creative with the Wreath of Blooms Kit Class? This in person AND/OR to-go class features the Wreath of Blooms Kit, by Stampin’ Up!.

The Wreath of Blooms Kit is lovely in the original hanging wreath design. But, you will find that by adding additional die cut elements (included with the class) and framing it (included with the class), the end results are spectacular!

Wreath of Blooms Kit

The Wreath of Blooms Kit is included in the class, and we will be using it on 2 of the 4 class projects.

Because I always love to add more to my projects, I am including an assortment of die cut and punched cardstock that will enhance your framed art. All this hard work is already done for you…just assemble!

The Wreath of Blooms Framed Art

You will receive a new-in-package white wooden frame as part of this class, along with the Wreath of Blooms Kit and additional leaves and nature elements.

Also included are the following: Petal Pink Cardstock mat, White Cardstock mat, and DSP mat. The DSP mat will vary on selection, but any of these 3 designs are perfect for this framed art masterpiece.

Wreath of Blooms Gift Box

Besides the beautiful Wreath of Blooms Kit framed art, this class has more in store for you! You will also be making a delightful gift box.

The box assembly is easy (it even has a gift card holder in it!). You will use the “bow-like” flower from the Wreath of Blooms Kit for the topper on this box.

The cardstock, DSP (selection may vary) and die cut tag are ready for you to use. Stamp your own sentiment, adhere the elements, and get ready to gift this clever item!

Wreath of Blooms Kit Class Cards

While I love good projects, I am still a cardmaker at heart. So this class has 2 easy to make cards, perfect for beginners and lovely for advanced stampers, too! Once again, all the hard work is done for you. All you need to do is stamp your sentiments and assemble.

Hello Friend Card

The Hello Friend Card features a Calypso Coral Cardstock base. The designer series paper is doing all the fancy work for you!

Chose a sentiment stamp from your collection for this card. You will receive the ribbon, but embellishments and a White Cardstock Insert are not included.

Lots of Love Card

The Lots of Love Card features a Petal Pink Cardstock base. Your kit will contain a piece of Petal Pink Cardstock that is already embossed.

And the punched pieces are part of the kit too. Just add a stamped sentiment and your own embellishments. If desired, you may also add your own White Cardstock insert.
