Christi's Creative Crew: January Tutorial Medley Group

I have been honored to be asked to join this group of talented demonstrators from all over the USA.

Each month we create a step by step tutorial for you on select stamp sets, and then we are allowed to share these tutorials with our customers who place an order or to the gals on my team.

For January I chose the set LITTLE LADYBUG

LITTLE LADYBUG is the cutest stamp set ever! and the only way that you can get it is if you hold a workshop/party AND if your sales reach $300.00 At that point you would get this stamp set for FREE.

In fact, Stampin' Up! has a set of dies to cut out those cute little ladybugs and the flower, plus there are a couple bonus pies as well. Starting February 4th you can purchase these dies.

So here is my card - a fun fold card that I plan to use in an upcoming Card Club Class
