NOTES OF KINDNESS

I took out one of my Stampin’ Up! ® Kits yesterday to make some cards.

The great thing about one of these All-Inclusive Kits is that it supplies everything needed to make, in this case, 20 cards (5 each of 4 designs).

So, I made one each of each design. I felt like a beginner stamper again – ink, stamps and paper and designs that were easy to follow.

It reminded me of how my paper crafting experiences have introduced me to new techniques and ideas – and how my crafting supplies have grown.

As a paper-crafter, I have evolved. From easier projects with step by step instructions, I began to change up designs and add my own touches. Because I had a wider range of skills, tools and supplies; I was crafting more often and my projects became a bit more involved. I was no longer a beginning (occasional) stamper but became a casual (more often, with more supplies).

Over time, and with more experience, most of the projects I create are now more complex – I am now an avid paper-crafter.

After making the first set of four cards, I decided it was time to step it up … and then step it up again …beginner, casual and avid projects.

Let me know what you think of these projects.

Thanks from popping by … happy stamping.

These are the products I used for these projects.

If you live in Australia, you can order any of the products through me.
