by Jackie Bultje | Dec 6, 2021 | Christmas, Poinsettia Petals |
Hello stampers and happy Monday to you. Today’s card features a pretty pink poinsettia. I received this gorgeous card from my team member Liz Fields. Liz does beautiful work and she is now teaching “my” coffee and a card class together with Yvonne Macfadyen every week. I am so proud of these ladies for continuing the tradition and doing so very well with it. Please check out Liz’ business Facebook page Papillion Creations. Now let’s take a look at Liz’s card.
Pretty Pink Poinsettia
Before I show you the card, I want to share that you could WIN the poinsettia stamp set and dies if you subscribe to my YouTube channel and comment on one of the videos. Just comment here on my blog that you have done so. If you have already subscribed then you can share my blog post OR my videos on Facebook or Instagram and that will also get you entered into the draw.
Liz used the Merry Melody embossing folder and the Whimsy and Wonder paper as well as the Ornate Layers dies. Isn’t it beautiful??
At first glance I thought Liz had used a beautiful but retired embellishment in the middle of the poinsettia. I was wrong! It is a die cut using the Be Dazzling glimmer paper from saleabration!
Free Shipping Wednesday!
Just a heads up that there will be a rare one day only free shipping event on Wednesday. I will be traveling so you will need to place your own order online (I know you know how to do it!!) Please do use the current host code shown below.

by Jackie Bultje | Dec 3, 2021 | In The Moment |
Hello stampers and happy Friday to you. In the Moment is a brand new stamp set that feels like it was made just for me. Perhaps you will feel the same way when you see it. It resonated so strongly with me that I was inspired to create a class around it, and not just any class. Are you curious?
In The Moment Day Away Class
The images are all of a woman with curly hair. She is either drinking wine, reading a book or sipping a coffee looking out the window. Does that sound like me?? Not only do the images make it feel like this stamp set was created for me and about me, the words are also amazing and they hit home!
“You’re always so good to others, be good to yourself too”.
I sometimes forget to be good to myself. When I was creating with this stamp set, these words percolated through my brain and I think they found a good place to land.
“Sometimes the most productive thing you can do is relax.”
While I know this to be true, I was raised with a pretty strong work ethic and relaxing is not a word that applies to me very often. I do love the idea of relaxing, but when someone says have a relaxing weekend it can get my hackles up. That says a lot doesn’t it? Truth is, when we take the time to relax and recharge our batteries we can return to our work with more focus and energy and probably joy too!
This stamp set is the perfect one to build a fun class around, but not just any class. A day away with Jackie!! I am planning this class for a welcome back to Canada party. My expected date of return is January 29. On Saturday February 5 from 9:30 until we are finished you are welcome to come to my home and relax and be good to yourself. We will make five cards throughout the day and you will go home with a ton of products.

Day Away Cards
Here is the results of my time of play for my day away class. I love them so much and I hope you do too. A huge thank you to Marion Kuipers for inspiring me with her card of the Delft Blauw card with the lady reading in bed. I modified her card but that is what got my creativity rolling. Let’s take a look.

Each month you can get a coordinated pack of patterned paper with ten sheets of five different colours of cardstock, various ribbons and embellishments. Here is the Parcel in the Post for December, it is $25 for porch pickup or $32 mailed anywhere in Canada.

by Jackie Bultje | Nov 29, 2021 | Christmas, Peaceful Prints, starter kit, tags, Time of Giving |
Hello stampers and happy Monday to you. Today’s post features the Time of Giving Tags and Cards. The dies were definitely designed to fit tags perfectly, but I am thrilled to show you that they also work for cards and boxes. I had made my tags weeks ago and forgot to blog about them, but the cards today are inspired by fellow Canadian demonstrator Alanna Wharf. Let’s take a look at the tags first.
Time of Giving Tags
My colour palette for these tags is kraft, evening evergreen, real red and basic white. Classic country Christmas colours. I’m so glad that Stampin’Up! brought back kraft paper to our Holiday Catalog.
You can’t see it in the picture, but the red tag is made using our gorgeous Red Velvet Paper. The white velvet is also lovely with these dies.
Time of Giving Cards
When you use these tags as the focal point of a card, it also looks fantastic. I first used Alanna’s card as an inspiration using the smoky slate, basic black and red plaid paper from the Peaceful Prints saleabration paper.
The second card uses the same colour scheme as my tags: evening evergreen and kraft paper. I love the plaid paper behind the black tag. Thanks again Alanna Wharf @sleeplessstamper for the fantastic inspiration. It was one of those moments where you almost squeal with delight!
Parcels in the Post
What I love about my card is that it fits in perfectly with my Parcels in the Post theme for next month. You can still get your Parcel in the Post for $32 mailed anywhere in Canada or for $25 porch pickup in Chatham. Take a look at the photo below to see what is in it. Beginning next week I will be doing videos every Tuesday at 10am EST showing you various projects with this Parcel in the Post.
You can get your Parcel in the Post in two ways. E-transfer is preferred to jackiebultje@gmail.com OR you can use PayPal here.
More Ideas
A while ago I made some gorgeous tea light holders using these dies. Check out my blog post on that here.

by Jackie Bultje | Nov 26, 2021 | Awesome Otters, Blends, saleabration, starter kit |
Hello stampers and happy Friday to you. Today I am some super cute Awesome Otters cards for you. Awesome Otters? Where did you find them? Let me tell you.
Where Did These Awesome Otters Come From??
One of the perks of being a Stampin’Up! demonstrator (or discount shopper) is getting my hands on products early. Stampin’UP! also offers awesome events virtually and in person when circumstances allow. When you attend these events you can get certain products even earlier. There are LOTS of perks for getting the starter kit. Did you know that YOU could get in on this deal for an even better price this month? Offer ends November 30 but I will tell you more later. First let’s take a look at these cards.
Come and Play!
Otters love to play, and so can YOU! I am hosting a fun games evening with some simple stamping. You can make this very card and also win prizes and go home with a goodie bag. Check out my event here. It will be the last stamping event until February 1. You guessed it, I am going back to Holland to be with Gerard for seven weeks.
Another Way?
Is there another way to get this adorable stamp set for free AND early? The answer is a resounding YES! All you need to do is get the starter kit this month for a steal of a deal. Until November 30 it is only $100. You get to pick out any products you want for a total of $165. Then in December you can place an order including products from the brand new 2022 Mini Catalog and also get free saleabration items with every $60 purchase. Did I mention that you also save 20% on your own orders as well as earn that amount on any orders that you might get from people who you share your catalogs with? Get your starter kit here if you live in Canada.
A Few More Products
I took a photo of a few more stamp sets that I will be including as prizes at my Games Event on December 3. This event is a great way to get a sneak peek at the new products and also be able to play with them and win them. Everyone wins a prize at my events.
Thanks!
Thanks for joining me today and a huge thank you if you have also subscribed to my YouTube Channel. This morning I hit my goal of 4000 subscribers and that means I will be choosing one lucky winner who will get the Cabin Dies sent to them. I hope you have a super day and that you also seriously consider all the amazing opportunities that await you by getting the starter kit, joining my team and getting your very own discount and other exclusive perks.
