Stampin' Up! Everyday Occasions Cardmaking Kit - a real deal!

Everyday Occasions Cardmaking Kit (134797) by Stampin' Up!I
(Sorry, somehow this post did not get published so it is out of order.)

I was not impressed when I saw the flyer for this kit, but that all changed when I had an opportunity to use this kit to make samples for a friend's class.  This kit will be on my next Stampin' Up! order, because it is lots of fun and the cards really come alive in real life!  Add the fact that it is a great deal because it includes a terrific greetings stamp set (at least $14.95 value), two ink spots (Basic Gray and Island Indigo) ($2.00 each/$4.00), and a clear acrylic block to hold the stamps ($5.00). Those are conservative $ amounts that total $24.00 for items that can be used over and over.  In reality it costs only $5.95 or less for supplies and you will get more than enough to make 20 cards.  All you need to have on hand is a scissors, adhesive and glue dots. Stampin' Up has made that easy,too, by offering a bundle which includes these necessities - Everyday Occasions Cardmaking Kit Bundle (137497) which you can see at the end of the post.

This post will show you the kit, and the next post will show the cards I made.  (Actually the one below this)

This is what you get in the Everyday Occasions Cardmaking Kit. The first photo shows the 5 sheets of die cuts, die cut silver glimmer paper, die cut white card stock, doilies, and some precut printed cardstock for layering. I missed the twine, buttons, Arrow shaped cute clips, and Stampin' Dimensionals - you can see part of that in the upper left corner.
 Here are the 20 card bases and the envelopes

 The bundle includes the Everyday Cardmaking Kit (135877), Snail adhesive, Mini Glue Dots and Paper Snips 
I will be back with the samples! (Actually, they got posted first!!)
