stampin' buddies

The best kind of stampin' is stampin' with a buddy!!! My son joined me for a live video of a shaker card that my friend Bonnie Sanche did using the Painted Poppies suite and we had a blast!!  

Future Stampin'up demonstrator...I think so!

Getting things ready!

This is my new light box! I finally set it up and started shooting! It is fantastic and I highly recommended one to anyone who needs to take good pictures of items. The set up was super easy, it comes with 4 different colour backgrounds and I just added some wood themed 12x12 which fit perfectly inside!! 

So now my pictures are better lit and look fabulous!!! 

Things are coming together!!

Things are getting EXCITING!!!

I am really loving learning about on-line sales. My Krafty kits are coming along but today I directed my focus to my on-line store. Yuuuup!!! I'm gonna have an on-line store where you can purchase cards, home decor, customized anything and any other really neat Krafts I make that you MUST have 😁

Wanna know as soon as it goes live?

Go to my site KraftyKristaW.ca and fill out your email address... Then I will send you an email right before it opens so you can have first pick! 

Here's a sneak peak!!!!

Krafting Kits coming soon!!!

So, part of moving my business on-line is making Kits to mail out to people who want them. So I hunkered down and got busy creating the first one! This krafty kit uses Stampin'up's super cute Birthday bonanza suite which is perfect for any birthday and includes 12 card bases and all of the supplies!!! 

This Krafty kit will be available for purchase from my Shopify and has the option to add the stamp set and memento ink pad. I will have a you tube video making all of the cards so you can follow me step by step. 

Perfect for kids to make or you to put together one krafternoon! 

I got to create today!!!

Amongst the craziness of staying home 24/7, home schooling my 3 boys, cuddling and walking my dogs and giving my husband the space he needs to teach on-line there has been almost no time to create. That changed today! Crafting does a ton for my anxiety so today I made it a must do on my list and I'm so glad I did. Today went waaaaaaay better than yesterday and I wasn't completely done by 3. I am even excited for tomorrow! 

It amazes me how healing and therapeutic crafting can be. So in all of this craziness, get crafty and get creative!!!

Kards for kindness are on their way!

I was too excited to wait (even though the mail won't be picked up until tomorrow around noon) so I walked to the mailbox and sent my Kards for Kindness on their merry little way! 

Some are traveling close and some are traveling farther but they are literally the only things allowed (or should be) travelling right now. I hope they bring smiles across the miles!!! 

Stay tuned for my next adventure! 

Kards for Kindness

So, I did my second live video yesterday for my friends and family on Facebook asking anyone who wanted me to send kindness in the mail to message me their address and it will be there shortly. I was shocked and amazed at how many people responded. My heart is so full!!! 

Sooooo, I spent my krafternoon choosing cards, writing in them, addressing them and sending them and I've never felt better. 

Kards for kindness will remain for as long as I am krafting!!! 

Let me know if you want to recieve one!

The Adventure Begins!

Well, in light of the current pandemic I have been forced into on-lining my business.  I’m not going to lie, I’ve been looking into doing this for quite sometime I just never took the plunge.  So here I am now, you are all my witnesses...I’m Diving in!!!

So far I am just getting all of the necessary tools on-line and off.  So far I have found a payment venue, on-line store and laptop thanks to my friend Renato.  I have more work to do but I’m excited for this journey...time to go Next Level!
