I have teamed up with the 3 fabulous ladies to bring you 12 weeks of Christmas tutorials! Christmas is coming soon, it’s only three months away Have you started your shopping spree, or are you waiting till it is a little closer to the date? I’m busy making cards for Christmas, with stamps and ink and paper. I love to receive handmade gifts and cards and I know many others do as well. I keep all the cards that I receive, they are precious to me and I know how much effort they take, and how they are made with love and art.

I hope you enjoy the first of the tutorials I am sending out! I also invite you to join my facebook group, Create With Maxine, where I share my passion for all kinds of crafts. Every month, I will do a random draw for cards or projects that you post on my page. It doesn’t matter if they are not made with Stampin Up products or if they are not paper crafts. I welcome any kind of creative expression that you are working on right now. I would love to see your amazing creations and celebrate your crafty skills. 😊

The Stampin Up’ year runs from Oct 1 – Sept. 30 so some of my team and I got together and celebrated our year end with a team meeting, make n takes and recognition. It was so much fun getting together and sharing lots of laughter and fun. I loved being able to recognize ones on my WhimsINKgals stamp team but not all of my team is local so I was able to mail out recognition gifts and make n takes to the ones that live farther away.

I think we all enjoyed ourselves! Oh, I did I forget to mention there was cake too, Tiramisu and a vegan chocolate cake!

“Being a Stampin’ Up! demonstrator is like having a bunch of permanent stamping buddies.”
