Stampin Friends November 2023 Blog Hop - Tags, Boxes and Bags!

 

 
 

Welcome to the Stampin Friends Blog Hop!

If you are in the U.S.A, Happy Thanksgiving!!  Yesterday, we stuffed ourselves until we couldn’t move and had to unbutton our pants, lol.  (Did you?) And today we are at our end of this years Blog Hop!  It’s always a sad day, but even it went into December, I would be too busy to contribute!

 

This month’s Blog Hop is all about tags, bags and boxes, just in time for all the December Holidays where most of us will be giving lots of gifts. I can’t wait to share with you the Pop-In Zoom Class I just had on this exact topic.  The class was called Tags & More and we made 4 different giftcard holders and 10 tags using to of the Christmas Tag kits available through Stampin’ Up!

So…if you are following along the hop, you have arrived from Maureen’s Blog. Be sure to read through my Blog, comment below and continue to Jo’s Blog. If you get lost along the way, no worries, you can find a list of Blog Hoppers at the end of each Blog. ENJOY!

 

MATERIALS USED – Giftcard Holders

Kit: Love, Santa Tag Kit  |  158375  |  $22.00 

Cardbase: Basic White 7” x 5”

DSP Layer: 3.5” x 5”

Envelope: 2 5/8” x 3 5/8”

Cardstock Layer: 2 5/8” x 3 1/4”

Tools/Accessories: Baker Twine and Ribbon, Rhinestones, etc

Ink: Polished Pink, Bumblebee, Just Jade, Poppy Parade, Night of Navy, Momento Black

 


 

INSTRUCTIONS:

1.  Adhere the 3.5” x 5” DSP to the cardbase front.

2.  Trim the long edge of the envelopes to 3 1/4” and seal them. This will be the pocket for the giftcard.

3.  You can run them through with an embossing folder (see GC 1 and 3) or cover with cardstock (see GC 2). Adhere to card front.

4.  Place tag piece over the envelope and accessorize.

5.  For image 4, I cut a slit towards the top of the tag.  I then used strips of foam tape around the edge of the tag and adhered it to the cardbase.  This enables the tag to pop off the card front and a giftcard can slide through the slit but not fall out the sides or bottom.  For this card I also used gold accent pieces that did not come from the kit but it is/was a Stampin’ UP! product.

 

MATERIALS USED – Tags

Kit: Festive Tags Kit  |  162485  |  $13.00

Ink: Polished Pink, Lost Lagoon, Just Jade, Real Red, Poppy Parade, Flirty             Flamingo, Night of Navy

Dies: Celebrate with Tags and Bonanza Dies

 

INSTRUCTIONS:

1.  These tags are designed to have three layers.  To show you how to extend these amazing kits and get a better bang for your buck, I separated most of the two base layers. I then created the second layer out of coordinating cardstock, velum and DSP.

 

2.  Here are all the tags I created.  There are a total of 10 different tags. So, with this kit and some cardstock or DSP you have laying around, you can triple the kit and make 30 tags!!!  You do not need to buy new things achieve this, any holiday stamp set, and paper will do! 

 

3.  The following images, show the pieces that each tag used.

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

So, this ends our Blog Hop for the year!  Get ready for new and exciting things to come in 2024!  And of course thanks for taking this Blog Hop journey with me!  Comments of any kind (well hopefully nice ones, lol) are greatly appreciated.  When you are done be sure to hop on over to the next blogger, Jo, on the list!

See you in 2024!

Stampin’ w/Tiziana November 2023 News


You blinked didn’t you…I told you NOT to blink….Happy November…let the festivities begin!!!!

I do not have many classes scheduled for the next two months, but I do hope you can come to one or two that I do have going on!

I NEED TO SEND OUT A GREAT BIG THANK YOU TO THE FOLLOWING:

   First, TO ALL THAT HAVE PLACED ORDERS WITH ME

   Second, TO ALL THAT COME TO MY CLASSES

   Lastly, TO ALL THOSE THAT HOST CLASSES/WORKSHOPS WITH ME (Katie!)

Without you all I would not be able to keep doing what I love…and let me tell you I really LOVE WHAT I DO with Stampin’ Up! 

I would love to bring back some things that we as demonstrators would do all the time and that is bringing back Hosting Parties!  See below for how this works, and if you are interested or want more information, send me an email.  They are a lot of fun especially for GIRLS NIGHT OUT because Paint Nite is soo overrated, lol!  Oh and no need to be creative or have creative friends, anyone can take part!


HOW TO BE A HOST (IT’S EASY!)

STEP 1: Tell me you want to host a party. (I’ll be excited. Trust me!)
STEP 2: Let’s set a date and make a plan.

Want to hold a party in your home? What kind of project would you like to create? Many hosts prefer to make cards, but we can also have fun putting together gift packaging, tags, scrapbook pages, and more. Like pre-designed kits? In addition to our Paper Pumpkin kits, Stampin’ Up! catalogs always feature kits with cards and projects that are precut and ready to assemble.
Just tell me what works for you. I can walk you through the options and we’ll create your party plan together!

STEP 3: Invite your friends.

I would be happy to help you decide how to get the word out and what to say. Use whatever method works best for you: postcards, social media, email, calls, or texts.

STEP 4: Get the party started!

Here’s the best part. Have fun with your guests making beautiful projects.

STEP 5: Enjoy your rewards.

As a host you can earn free products, get discounts, and order exclusive products (only available for our hosts) with our Stampin’ Rewards program. For example, if your party sales are $150, you’ll have $15 to spend on whatever you’d like. It’s Stampin’ Up!’s way of saying thank you.

STEP 6: Keep crafting
If you had fun, why not start planning your next party right away? Or—if you’d like to enjoy even more benefits—purchase a Starter Kit to sign up as a Stampin’ Up! demonstrator. You can even use your Stampin’ Rewards to help you purchase your kit.

 
NEW ONLINE EXCLUSIVES Get ready for some NEW Online Exclusives, the future of shopping. And a great opportunity for new experiences! You won’t find these products in any catalog, which means we can keep up with the times and release new items regularly to match the times.  Ordering begins November 7th!  See attached PDF for some of the items that will be available…but keep in mind there will be a lot more!

INTELLECTUAL PROPERTY INFRINGEMENT ACTIONS

 

Just an FYI: Stampin’ Up! continually battles theft of our intellectual property in the form of knock-off stamp sets being sold through various online platforms. Thus far in 2023 our ongoing efforts have resulted in 73,398 infringing stamp sets being removed from various e-commerce sites.

We also recently became aware that Dollar Tree is selling stamp sets created using our copyrighted artwork in their retail shops in the United States and Canada, and we have commenced aggressive legal action to stop them from selling these counterfeit products.

We are grateful for your ongoing help in identifying counterfeit products, including those found at Dollar Tree or any other physical retail location, and reporting them to us at infringements@stampinup.com.
