A Big Move!

Monday, July 28, 2014

Change has been coming to my family for quite a few months!  We have made a huge move across Canada and we are now living in Toronto!  Although we miss our friends and family immensely, we are loving everything that the big city offers!  Our new place is super close to the lake and is so walkable!  Love it!


I've also made the decision to pursue my Stampin' Up! career full-time!  I loved my job in Edmonton so much but this was definitely the right decision for this part of my life.  Can't wait to see where it will take me!

I've started planning my classes and workshops for the next few months!  Click here to see the full schedule!  Classes offered will be great for beginners to experts!  Message me to register because space is limited!

Here are some pictures of our new place!  Come and visit!!  



Here is the future craft room!

Over the next couple months I will be tweaking the blog so please be patient!  I hope to get it looking prettier and update all the links of course!  In the meantime, if you have any questions or would like to place an order, click here!

Stampin' Up Convention 2013!

Wednesday, July 17, 2013

Stampin' Up! Convention has finally arrived!  I have anxiously been awaiting it for...the past year, LOL.  My flight from Edmonton to Salt Lake City was filled with Stampin' Up! demonstrators.  Then I spent a lovely day with our group doing some shopping, eating, and walking.  The weather here is HOT and it feels like a real vacation!  


Tomorrow marks the first official day of convention!  We are going to tour the Stampin' Up! headquarters and distribution center and have our opening session.  Last year when they opened the doors to the opening session it was magical.  My hope is to be able to do a quick video of the entrance!  Cross your fingers and wish me luck!

I'll be trying to post as often as I can throughout my stay in Salt Lake City!  Check my Facebook page for updates too!

Stampin' Up! Custom Stamps

Monday, November 12, 2012

Did you know that Stampin' Up has an incredible selection of custom stamps!  Everything from address stamps in different fonts to Monograms!

I recently purchased a brand new Monogram stamp perfect for Christmas tags, cards, and presents!  There is still lots of time to order your personalized stamp before Christmas!  Click http://www.stampinup.net/esuite/home/karolina/ to order yours or email me karolinastamps@gmail.com

Here are directions on how to mount and use your personalized stamp:




In your order you will receive a wood block, your stamp and sticker for your block.


First, you need to trim your stamp.  I used Stampin' Up! paper snips to do so because they are extra sharp and pointy!


Next, you need to mount your stamp on to the wood block.  Also, trim your sticker to fit on your block.


Lastly, stick your label on to the block!  Voila!

I would suggest using a Stampin' Write Marker on your stamp if you are using it on tags or cards.  Bonus...makers are inexpensive and a great way to boost your colour selection!  If you are using your stamp on the outside of an envelope (ex. address stamp) then I would strongly suggest you use StazOn ink.  It is a solvent based ink and the ink will not run if wet, which is really important if you are mailing your card during rainy or snowy seasons!  Gently tap it in the ink so that the stamp doesn't get too inky.  

Happy Stamping!

Traditional Touches Christmas Card

Monday, October 8, 2012

It's getting to be my favourite time of year...Christmas card making season!

I think it's wonderful to update traditional Christmas cards by using non-traditional colours.  It's a modern update!


Here I am using 2011-2013 In-colour markers to ink the Traditional Touches single stamp.  I'm also using some lovely silver glimmer paper and paper from the Designer Series Paper Stack (2011-2013 colours).  Add some rhinestone accents and you are set to go!  Simple, elegant, and modern!  Just my kind of card!  And...you will be seeing this one in this year's Christmas Card Stamp-A-Stack classes!

French Foliage Falling Leaves Card

Tuesday, September 25, 2012

I've got a special treat to share!  This beautiful one layer card is made by my good friend Meghan.  The colours remind me of the trees here in Edmonton! 

Meghan masked the area where the Thank You is stamped and used some random stamping to get the falling leaves effect. 




Thanks for sharing Meghan!  Keep sending me those beautiful cards!

Here's what you will need to recreate this beauty:

Vanilla card stock
French foliage stamp set
Elegant thank you stamp
Ink Colours: More mustard, pumpkin pie, cherry cobbler and always artichoke
Extra large decorative label punch for masking

Swap Card on Stampin' Up Boards!

Sunday, September 16, 2012


Ok, I am so excited!  I was checking out pictures of some Stampin' Up! Regional Conventions in the US and saw my swap card on the Halloween Board!!!  It feels awesome!  Here is the post I had for my swap card:


Here is the swap I brought with me to Convention.  Now, I have a confession to make.  I actually kept forgetting to make swaps because work and family life was getting very busy.  So the day before leaving, I enlisted the help of my mom to pump out a whole bunch of swaps.  Here is the creation we made.  I love it!!


Those who know me well know that I have not been super fond of Halloween BUT since having my girls, I have slowly started to enjoy it more through their eyes.  But since seeing the Googly Ghouls set in the new Holiday Catalogue coming out on August 01, 2012, I am loving Halloween themed cards!

There are so many sneak peeks in this card!  Wood grained embossing folder, GOOGLY EYES!!!, new sanding blocks, and new Core'dinations paper in Early Espresso!

This card will put a smile on anyone's face who opens it in the mail!

Leave your comments here!  I want to know, is this card cute or what??  :)
