Craft is back this Christmas with Stampin’ Up!
Stampin’
Up!, the U.S originated crafting company, is challenging Kiwis to bring back
homemade cards this year – for a unique and meaningful gift.
Whether
you’re looking for a creative outlet, a task to occupy your kids or you’re
wanting to save on cards this year, Stampin’ Up! has the creative inspiration
to get you started.
Stampin’ Up!
is an 19 year-old, direct sales company which designs and manufactures an
exclusive selection of rubber stamp sets, colour coordinated papers, inks and
accessories, used to create everything from personalised cards and invitations,
to scrapbooks and home décor ideas.
Making your
own Christmas card doesn’t need to take as long as you might think. Here are
some of Stampin’ Up’s top tips for Christmas card making:
- Think outside the square. Find materials from local environments such as
the beach to give your cards the ultimate Kiwi Christmas feel. Shells and
textured sand make effective designs when mounted on card
- Get your kids to make the cards for you!
Let them loose with a variety of materials and see what they create!
- Use photos to do the hard work for you. A
simple photo from your album can be reproduced in black and while and make
a striking image on a personalized card.
- Paint is a great resource for making hand or
footprints on a card or doing fingerpainting (even if it’s a bit
abstract!)
- Get a Christmas stamp set to use for all
your cards and tags. You can use a two-step process with light and dark ink
colours to create contrast or get watercolour inks and stamps from
Stampin’ Up! to create a soft effect.
In the
spirit of Christmas, Stampin’ Up’s very own demonstrators are available to you
as creative coaches. They’re happy to come into your home and share ideas and
projects with you and your friends and family – for FREE! For information on
this service call 0800 202 722.
As well as
producing an innovative range of craft products, Stampin’ Up! offers Kiwi’s an
exciting new business model, giving those who enjoy craft the opportunity to
earn money while doing what they love.
