Handbag packets!

Stampin' Up! UK Business packet

I am an independent Stampin’ Up!® demonstrator, this means that I create beautiful things with top quality card stock, ink, and rubber stamps, and share them with you! (and teach a few classes, hold a couple of parties, and attend a shed load of craft fairs!)

I recently attended a Stampin’ Up! organised training day (back in May!) and one of the demonstrator presenters (Rhoda Macpherson) presented this idea of keeping packets in your handbag, to introduce to people what it is we do! I LOVE this idea, I have carried business cards since I became a demonstrator, and even though they are hand-stamped, they didn’t really say what it was I am all about! So, thank you Rhoda, this now have pride of place in my handbag (and on my display table at classes, and on the front of my stall at fairs!)

These use the Sketches Dots Tag a Bag Gift Bags. You know my love of the Tag a Bag kit items by now! Check out page 151 of the Annual Catalogue for some great gift packaging ideas, including pre-cut and scored boxes, a variety of bags and even labels and tags. They are awesome!

I paired the bags with some more detailed business cards, featuring not only my contact details, but also some information about me and what I do. This information is printed onto Whisper White card stock (yes it sales through my printer without any issues) and matted onto a piece of Bermuda Bay. They had to have some stamping too, so I grabbed out one of my current favs, Endless Thanks.

Stampin' Up! UK sketched dots tag a bag business cardsI have been loving the colours from the Cherry on Top Designer Series Paper stack – Bermuda Bay, Crushed Curry, Cucumber Crush, Hello Honey, Pool Party, Tip Top Taupe, Watermelon Wonder and Whisper White – and so I have used these colours here too!

Tag a bag…… of a card!

Stampin' Up! UK tag a bag endless thanks

I have previously mentioned my love for the Tag A Bag Accessories kits, I even have a video on the latest one (available HERE!).

They are just so versatile. Not only do I use them to label gifts, but I use them to label things in my craft room (those sticky strips are awfully handy!) and I even use them to make cards! And they only cost £7.25!

This card also features the Endless Wishes Stamp set, with the sentiment stamped in Calypso Coral onto one of the pieces from the kit. I also stamped some leaves behind the doily but they are a bit tricky to see, even up close.

What a simple, cute, quick card!

Love it!

Tag a Bag

I haven’t featured these kits for a while on the blog, although I use them all the time! I was so excited to see a brand new Tag a Bag Accessory kit in the new Annual Catalogue.  This time featuring Blushing Bride, Calypso Coral, Crushed Curry, Garden Green and Night of Navy. The kits are designed to help you add the finishing touch to gifts and treats but I use them all over!

The kit includes 10 large tag bases, and 10 tag building layers, over 18m of linen thread! doilies, Dimensionals, 10 gorgeous gold paperclips and 5 adhesive strips in Calypso Coral.

I have to say I use these adhesive strips all over! they make great labels, and my embossing powder containers are marked up with a piece with the colour of embossing power on the strip!

I will be using this kit on some projects really soon, but I wanted to give you a look at what you get for just £7.25! first!

What’s you go to item in the new catalogue?

12 Tags of Christmas – Under the Tree

Time once again for another tag!

I will openly admit to cheating this week, but I think these tags are awesome!

Stampin' Up! UK Under the Tree 12 tags of christmas

This tag uses the Under the Tree Tag a Bag Accessory Kit, and nothing else! (well, except the matching stamps!)

I have mentioned my love of the Tag a Bag kits offered by Stampin’ Up! and this tag demonstrates perfectly why they are so great! The kit comes with 10 of these, for just £7.25! each present I send this year will have one of these – adding a nice tag means you can use really cheap wrapping paper and no one notices because they see the effort that has gone into the tag – except here it hasn’t taken any effort! perfect!

This tag uses one large tag base, a builder tag stamped in Early Espresso using the Trendy Trims stamps, an Early Espresso clothespin, and some Crumb Cake bakers twine!

Simple!

12 Tags of Christmas – Merry….

Its Monday! And in the lead up to Christmas, that only means one thing…… its time for another 12 tags of Christmas!

Stampin' Up! UK 12 tags of Christmas Seasonally Scattered

This tag is super duper simple!

The tag base is a 2″ x 6″ piece of Whisper White cardstock, punched with the Scalloped Tag topper punch.

I just adore the Seasonally Scattered stamp set, I will be so sad when it leaves us in January, but for now I’m planning on using it for as long as possible! So I used the Merry Stamp, in Real Red Ink, its just so beautiful!

I added some sparkle (I’m sorry, the picture does NOT do this one justice at all!) by dotting my 2-way glue pen around the image, and added some lovely glitter. I don’t use glitter all that often, I love sparkle but I generally opt for jewels and rhinestones over glitter, but every time I bust out the glitter I remember how much I love it, and wonder why it doesn’t get used more!

The string on this tag is the white bakers twine from the Tag a Bag accessory kit from the annual catalogue.

12 Tags of Christmas – Merry and Bright!

Hello!

Welcome to another instalment of the 12 Tags of Christmas!

This week I used the Good Greetings stamp set (still FREE on any order of £200! until the end of October!) and the Under the Tree Tag a Bag Accessory kit!

Stampin' Up! UK 12 Tags of Christmas

I just love the Tag a Bag Accessory Kits, we have several over the annual and seasonal catalogues. They are just so handy, and include 10 gift tags for just £7.25! Awesome!

So, this tag also uses two pieces of DSP; the green is a piece of Under the Tree Specialty DSP, with the brown being from the Trim the Tree paper stack. I love both these packs of DSP! The specialty paper is really thick (and is awesome for boxes and 3D items) and the little paper stacks are super handy for card fronts and other cute projects (hint hint!)

Stampin' Up! UK Scallop Tag Topper Punch

 

So, to create this tag. The green piece of 2″ x 6″ and punched using the Scallop tag topper punch. And the brown piece is 2″ x 3″ and punched with the same punch. The sentiment from that Good Greetings set, is stamped on one of the builder tags from the Tag a bag accessory kit, attached with a dimensional. Instead of using twine or ribbon this week, I’ve used one of the pegs from the Tag a bag accessory kit – they are just so cute!

12 Tags of Christmas! Festival Style!

Well, we’re really getting into it now! 11 weeks to go!

This tag is uses the Festival of Trees Stamp set – well, it is Festival of Trees week here @ StampinByHannah!

Stampin' Up! UK Festival of Trees

I made these tree using 3 of the stamps from the set – the solid tree shape, and the two complimenting stamps; the tree and the baubles! Made in two colours – traditional; using Pear Pizzazz, Old Olive and Real Red, and a non-traditional colour way of Soft Sky, Lost Lagoon and Smokey Slate!

I love these tags. The tags themselves are super simpe – 2×6″ Very Vanilla cardstock, punched at one end using the Scallop Tag Topper punch.

Easy Peasy!

 

 

Thanks for reading,

see you again tomorrow for more ideas using the Festival of Trees!

Festival of Trees Week!!!!!

Well Hello there! Welcome to StampinByHannah, and to Festival of Trees Week!

I love this stamp set! I have already made so many cards with it, used it in workshops, and had a go a little viral on Pinterest! Yay! and seeing as its Stampin’ Up! European Convention this coming Weekend (and I cant go 🙁 ) I thought I would celebrate blog style – with an awesome week of awesome cards!

Stampin' Up! UK Festival of Trees Under the Tree

I love this colour combination – its just so festive! The cardbase is in Garden Green, with a card front using the Under the Tree Speciality Paper (great for boxes with the gift box punch board to!) The Tree is stamped in Garden Green on one of the builder tags from the Under The Tree Tag a Bag Accessory Kit (which is also where the other tag and the bakers twine is from!).

That super cute sentiment is from a limited edition stamp set, available until the end of the month, if you place an order (or host a party) of over £200. I love it, it has a collection of lovely holiday sentiments all in this lovely handwritten font

 

 

Check back tomorrow for more cards using Festival of Trees

12 Tags of Christmas!

Hello there!

Can you believe it! There are 12 weeks left until Christmas! Time to sort the Cards, Presents, and food!!!!

As you have already seen, I’ve made a start on my Christmas cards, so I was thinking about something we could do, to celebrate the 12 weeks of Christmas! when the Scallop Tag Topper Punch arrived on my desk!

So, I introduce to you….. The 12 Tags of Christmas….. coming to you each Monday between now and Christmas!

Stampin' Up! UK Espresso Trim the Tree Tag Good Greetings

 

So, most of the tags in this series use the Scallop Tag Topper Punch, and so to fit in the punch each tag is 2″ wide. This tag uses two ‘tags’ at 2″ x 6″ one in Early Espresso cardstock and one in a piece of DSP from the Trim the Tree Designer Series Paper stack. I love these DSP stack, there are two in the annual catalogue and one in the current seasonal – with sheets measuring 6.5″ x 4.5″, and they have loads of really cool patterns and are great for card fronts and sweet little gifts!

Stampin' Up! UK Espresso Trim the Tree Tag Good GreetingsAs well as the Scallop Tag Topper punch this tag also uses the Modern Label punch, and this cute greeting from Good Greetings (our StampinByHannah product of the month! see HERE!)

The twine for this tag comes from the Under the Tree Tag a Bag Accessory Kit, you get loads and loads of Crumb Cake bakers twine (along with a heap of other goodies) for £7.25! LOVE!

Check back next week for more Tags!
