Hugs for Love Valentine Drop Down Gift Box

I have seen the idea for drop-down gift boxes in many places and wondered how difficult it was to create one.  So I sat down, did the math, and found a simple design I love, just in time for Valentine's Day.

Today, I am CASE-ing the catalogue!  CASE is an acronym for Copy And Share Everything, and it's when you see something you want to recreate (in part or in whole) and then share your creation, giving credit to the original creator.  This stunning beauty using the Floral Delight Suite was created by one of the talented designers from Stampin' Up! and you can see the original on page 37 of the January-April 2025 Mini Catalogue.

This fun-shaped card is one of the free products you can choose as part of the Sale-A-Bration promotion.  It's the Rainbow Celebration Kit, a bright and joyful all-inclusive card kit!

So, I have been playing with some of the beautiful products offered in the Sale-A-Bration promotion.  I already shared the Toadstool Gardens Designer Series Paper and Adhesive-Backed Sequins on a fun toadstool thank you card, but the stand-out Sale-A-Bration product (in my opinion) is the oh-so-cute Friendly Seagulls stamp set.

Hello

about me

I am a stay-at-home mum with three adult children and a wonderfully supportive husband.  My creative timeout is stamping, creating and giving handmade greeting cards.  When I was introduced to Stampin' Up!® over fifteen years ago, I quickly fell in love with their high-quality, coordinating products and loved creating with them.  Soon after, I became an Independent Stampin' Up!® Demonstrator and discovered that I also enjoy sharing my paper crafting knowledge with others and inspiring their stamping creativity.

I would love to hear from you.  Don't hesitate to contact me if you want the latest catalogue, need papercraft supplies (we ship nationwide), wish to attend an upcoming event, or want information about joining my team.

The new mini catalogue is HERE - woohoo!  Today we welcome an inspirational collection of new products from the January-April 2025 Mini Catalogue.  This is hands-down my favourite catalogue release of the year and I am so excited to share it with you!  But wait, there's more...

Ngā mihi o te tau hou!
HAPPY NEW YEAR!

A New Year is like a blank book and the pen is in your hand.  This is your chance to write a beautiful story for yourself.

I love the Book Treat Boxes - they are a good size for sweet treats, gift cards, and flat ornaments.  I used so many for Christmas gifts, but they are perfect for gifting all year round.

I hope you have a joyful time gathering and celebrating with family and friends today.  As Mother Teresa so aptly said, "It's not how much we give but how much love we put into giving".  So, I hope there is a lot of love in your household today.

May you all know the blessing of the One whose birth we celebrate today.

Meri Kirihimete!
MERRY CHRISTMAS!
