Quick & Easy Gift Packaging

Hi There,

I love how Stampin' Up! creates products that make life easier. Here's a short video showing how you can make gift packaging fast and fun!

Everybody needs a quick option for wrapping Christmas goodies and gift this time of year, so you'll want to stock up on the Gusseted Cellophane Bags (item #142001). Just pop a treat or gift into the bag and simply add a ribbon and tag to dress it up! These food-safe 6" x 17" bags come in packs of 25.

Don't forget - we've got lots of ribbons to choose from for just the right match!
And those tags? I've got a class for you! Check out my events at Keriout.stampinup.net and I'll be Inkin' with you, soon!

Thanks for Inkin' of me,

Outside my comfort zone!

I've been skeptical about making special fold cards until this one! I saw this tutorial on SplitCoastStampers website and when I read that the finished size fits in a regular envelope, I gave it a try. I hope you like my results as much as I do!


I grabbed the Serene Scenery Designer Series Paper Pack and went monochromatic on my own design! Inks are Delightful Dijon and Early Espresso. Stamp sets are Vintage Leaves & Wetlands.

What supplies would you use to make your Gate Fold card?

Dare to be Different!

Have you had a good look at the Stampin' Up! Holiday Catalog since it's debut on September 1st? Wow - It's filled with great products, isn't it? There's also many, many creative stampers out there who come up with unique and fun ideas for these stamp sets so, I have to share a couple with you.


This first one just too stinkin' cute! Lady Dee used the Cookie Cutter Halloween, which coordinates with the Cookie Cutter Builder Punch, Spooky Fun and Jar of Haunts. It's over the top! Look at all the detail! It's got to make you smile!

Next, is another combination of stamp sets to make a really beautiful card. Brian King used the Star of Light stamp set, Detailed Santa Thinlits Die and Red Glimmer Paper. Would you have thought to use Pool Party cardstock with Real Red for a Christmas masterpiece? It's another example of creativity at it's finest!

I love both of these cards. I hope you do too.


Do you know what you'd like to order from the Holiday and/or Annual Catalog to make your cards for any occasion? Get your Wish List together and place your order at my online store Here!

I'm still your Stampin' Up! demonstrator!

I am still your Stampin' Up! demonstrator! 

Despite the notice that you may have received stating that I'm no longer a demonstrator, I only dropped for 24 hours in order to re-sign up under Ronda Wade. 

I've made this exciting change so that I can have great support and even more ideas to share with you in my business. I still have my website, blog and facebook page and the only thing that's really changed is that because I've dropped and re-joined, you will have to create a new account on my online website - Keriout.stampinup.net

I know it'll be worth the effort to "re-create" your account on my online store.

I'm still hosting great workshops, fun classes and private parties where I hope you'll continue to join me in memory keeping, card making, home decor and gift giving events along side those you know and new friends, too! 

I will keep you informed of Stampin' Up! promotions, news, specials and to send you my event list to continue joining me in creating great works of "heart" together!

As Always, I'm available to answer any questions you may have and I hope to be "Inkin" with you soon!

Thanks for Inkin' of me,
