Creating Kindness Blog Hop: New Catalogue Favourites

Hi everyone! I am so happy to have you here with me today! If you are new to my blog, my name is Carolynn Sander. I am a Canadian Stampin' Up! Independent Demonstrator from Calgary, Alberta. I have exciting news to share with you all! Stampin' Up! has just released the new 2017-2018 Annual Catalogue! As well, the Creating Kindness Design Team is launching our 1st around the world blog hop today. What is the Creating Kindness Design Team you ask? We are a group of Stampin' Up! Demonstrators from around the globe who have come together to inspire you to create kindness through cardmaking and papercrafts. In addition to the blog hop today, there is also a video hop component! Make sure to visit my YouTube channel (link posted below). Within the YouTube video description there will be a list of video links that one can click through in order to see all of the videos that are part of today's papercrafting adventure! I hope you enjoy today's hop, as well as all of the fun new products that Stampin' Up! has released with the new catty!


So let's get to it! The card that I created for today's hop showcases an amazing stamp set from the new catty entitled "Ribbon Of Courage". This stamp set is extraordinary! In fact, the stamp set itself was designed by Patty Bennett. Patty is an American Stampin' Up! demonstrator who was the 9th demonstrator in the history of Stampin' Up! to achieve 1 million dollars in sales! Way to go Patty! As recognition for her achievement, she teamed up with Stampin' Up! to create this wonderfully meaningful stamp set! Thanks Patty! Here's my first creation with this set! I'm sure I will be inking up this one many times over!



I decided to use the stained glass technique on today's card. If you are a regular visitor to my blog, you may remember this pretty gem that I shared a couple of weeks back. It also flaunts the stained glass look.

  4. This stamp set means a lot to me. I just literally was diagnosed with cancer in March and had my mastectomy 2 weeks ago. When I saw this stamp set in the new catalog, I knew it'd be the first one on my list. Beautiful card you designed. Do you mind if I CASE it?
