Birthday Organizer

Kim — Wed, 28 Sep 2011 21:52:20 +0000

I am so excited to share my first of top 10 gift ideas for the holidays. A hand made gift is a gift that comes from the heart. I love to shower gifts to people that have touch me one way or another. Plus, I was looking for a way to organize birthday's for people that are special to me. I finally found a concept that is great to organize birthday's. Seriously it was in our Stampin'up! Catalog on p.181. It's the birthday Calendar available in english or en francais, Calendrier des anniversaires. Of course mine is decorated with the beau chateau designer paper to match my studio. But guests will be able to decorate it in the designer paper of their choice. I will use 4 different stampin'write markers to register my special birth dates. Marina mist for demonstrators on my team, Soft Suede for my customers, Early Espresso for family and pretty in pink for special people that have touch me one way or another. So at the end of every month, I will look at the next month coming and if there are 6 birthdays during that month. I will stamp my birthday cards and organize them to mail out. Behind every month will be a pocket holder to place my cards awaiting for postage.

This album includes the 12 months and measures 5 1/2" x 14"

Tomorrow night a couple of guests are coming to decorate this wonderful calendar. I still have 3 spots left so you can join us if you want. Demonstrators are welcome too:)
Can't Make it, book your own party and let's get together to make this great holiday gift idea with your girlfriends.

Hostess Gift from Convention

Kim — Thu, 04 Aug 2011 01:42:37 +0000

Busy busy as a bee, as I was uploading pictures on my new computer, I realized that I have been very busy: Convention, Vegas, Tony and I celebrated our 10th anniversary in July, finally had my open house with the launch of the new catalogue, we attended Tony's uncle's 60th birthday party and his cousin's wedding and I celebrated my birthday last Friday. Thanks to all of you for posting happy birthday on Facebook. Actually, if the Facebook wishes were stamped, handmade cards, I would have had 150 of them:) pretty impressive! On the downside, summer is half done and we haven't been around, Tony and I made a list of 30 things that needed to be done around the house. We realized that our busy schedule was not going to cut it. So my dad is helping us out and started today to do the things on the list. I am so grateful and the girls are super excited that he's around too:) I love watching the girls pitching around and helping him out.

I have so many projects that I want to show you. Having all these events to attend in July made me stamp a lot. And now it's time to post some of them here. First, I wanted to post my hostess box and matching cards that I presented at convention. I created the box from a soap box from a hotel and just changed the size to fit a 3×3 card. Simple Right?

If you would like one of these, there are 4 options to receive Kim's Hostess Set:

1- Book a Party with me

2- Place a online order with me + Bonus get VIP service

3- Join my team, I would love to share this opportunity with you

4- Place a comment on my blog and I will draw 1 of these

Good Luck!

Personally for this project I preferred using the marker because I colored in the images and left the bee out of the stamp set to replace it with a butterfly

Technique Class to Go

Kim — Tue, 28 Jun 2011 19:48:16 +0000

Thanks so much for all the emails and horror stories about computers. I love to read your emails + it made me feel a little better:) While I'm in Greece, my computer is a little off, they haven't tuned it back to what it was before the crash. I will be paying them a visit for a quick fix, since when I get home, I leave just a few days later for Stampin'up! Super Convention. Although I did loose some of my favorite pictures for my Convention Presentation, I do have a back up plan. Good thing that I adapt easy!

Since a few of you inquired about the technique to go book that I have for grabs, here is a sampler of what it looks like.

In your kit to go you get 20 techniques like these and instructions + a 6×6 linen album and it includes your shipping.

It's a wonderful class for your clubs, workshop sampler if you are a demonstrator.

It's a wonderful Resource Book if you love rubber stamping.

I always like to add my special touch to these samples and carry my books around with me to talk about my love for rubber stamping. If you have thought about joining as a demonstrator, then click HERE, I will help you with YOUR goals!

I’m back

Kim — Sat, 19 Mar 2011 21:03:48 +0000

Yes I did win over my husband. We went to Mexico with the kids. It was the best family time ever:) I so needed to stop time and enjoy the kids as they are growing way too fast. No snow for a week was lots of fun. Walking in my flip flops was the best. The girls did ask Tony if we could stay longer, sadly the answer was no:(

I was so honored to be nominated as a stylish blogger award by so many of you and will past it on to my favorite blogs before the weekend, I promise! Mostly, I was honored to be selected from Shelli Gardner as a winner for her Sale-a-bration creative challenge When I arrived home from Mexico, I received the best welcome home email! Shelli chose my project, thanks Shelli, these challenges keeps us inspired. I promise to share by the end of the day. So much to do, I am rested and pumped and ready to create!

Hugs,

Spring cleaning continues…

Kim — Sat, 05 Mar 2011 22:09:27 +0000

By saying I will post, you are really pushing me to clean up my studio. Thank you for all the compliments, and suggestions. I have already changed a few things. There was also so many questions, ranging from paint color, where I got my pieces of furniture, to where I got my vintage coffee cups… You have to take in considerations that I have been a demonstrator x 4 1/2 years and a stamper since Stampin'up! has started in Canada. Some of the pieces I bought on my own, some are in storage for a dear friend and the rest of them, my husband bought for me on different occasions like Christmas and my birthday etc. He owns a construction business in Toronto, well actually Mississauga, Ontario and when December comes, I go with him to the big city for his staff's Christmas party and one of my first stop is Pottery Barn:)

This is my favorite Stamping spot! It gets crazy messy. Actually, I haven't seen it look like this in a long time! In the summer I get the Ottawa river view! Right now, it's a view of ridiculously huge snow banks:( Anyway, it's the perfect spot to create! In my baskets, I store all my products.

On the opposite side is where I store all my big shot dies, I love that stampin up has added these box for die storage. They come in 3 different sizes: Small die box #122219, Medium die box #122220 and Large die box #122221

I found this vintage piece of furniture and it's one of my favorites in my studio. Right now it stores my clear stamp sets but my goal is to display my 3D creations.

I hope you are enjoying part two, of my stamping space. You can view part one here. I still have 2 more spots to share, one is where my guests and downline stamp and the other is my office. My office is the worst place. I am so not good with paperwork. Maybe you should give me a few suggestions on how to get organized there, Pretty please…

My friend Veronique came to stamp with me this afternoon. We came up with a beautiful gift for a dear friend of hers with a matching card. I can't wait to share with you tomorrow.

If you would like to stamp with me, book a party with your friends or check out my class schedule, or join my team and you can attend my classes and monthly meetings, I would love to stamp with you!

Spring Cleaning

Kim — Wed, 02 Mar 2011 06:04:27 +0000

It's been almost 1 Year since Shelli Gardner, ceo and co-founder of Stampin'up! & her daughter Sara came to my studio because I was one of the winners of a workshop of a lifetime. More pics HERE. Get to read how I won the challenge. Although, I didn't make many changes in my studio then, I did tidy it up for two of the most wonderful ladies. Well lately I have been slacking on the cleaning and creating a little too much. So since I don't get to host with Shelli and Sara, I said to myself that I needed to tidy up again! Even if they are not coming for a visit anytime soon:(

So in the next few days, weeks I promise to share pics of my studio and how I am organizing it to make it more functional for me and my clients. And if I get really excited, I will even give you a tour via video! So, are you excited & ready? I will start with my first pics tomorrow or I could say today since it's 1am and I can't sleep! After all, I do need to tidy for Melissa's workshop in the next few hours! It reminds me, I have a few more dates left for a party with your friends, and there are only 30 days left before sale-a-bration ends.

So book now and you and your customers could qualify for free products!

Ok it's now lunch time, I did manage to take a few pics. Here is my coffee station. Not for me, I don't drink coffee and never even tasted it. It's the coffee and tea station for my class and workshop attendees! They get to chose their favorite blend. And below, in the baskets are all my punches. Yes, I have to thank a dear demonstrator friend, Trina who suggested it. The decor element above the piece of vintage furniture is called Très Chic, and comes in different sizes and colors. You only get to see part of it in the picture.

My ribbon & button station. I love how my furniture has frosty windows:) So you don't get to see the mess inside! And I love Stampin'up! definitely decorative products. The white daisies are called Upsy Daisies #117927. Check it out on the right in my definitely decorative brochure.

And this piece of furniture is where I store my ink pads and wheels. I hope you like my first mini tour in my studio. If you haven't seen my kids stamp room click here. Wait there is more, this is just a teaser,(wink)

Better yet, come to my next class to view the changes in person and bring a friend!

Please share a comment on how you get organized in your stamp space and I'll have a handmade blog candy for one of the post!
