National Stamping Day - Creativity In Motion!

As I mentioned in mid-August, Close To My Heart made the Creativity in Motion bundle available a little early. They wanted everyone to have plenty of time to order and receive their purchase prior to the National Stamping Day virtual event on Saturday, September 19th. During the FREE Facebook Live event we will be creating 12 cards, 3 each of these 4 designs.

National Stamping Day—Creativity in Motion Facebook Live

Be sure to visit the Facebook Event page and mark yourself as "Going" to the event. There is a two-fold benefit to submitting an RSVP: 1) you will be reminded of the event as it gets closer and 2) this is the only way to entered to win prizes.

The two items which launched early are the Creativity in Motion Event Bundle and You Brighten My Day Stamp Set. I'm told the Brighten My Day stamp set will not be used in the creative projects, but some techniques will be taught using this set.

I created my first animated card last week and it was much easier than it looks and was so much fun to create. I will be sharing that card when I participate in a Creativity in Motion blog hop later this month.

I imagine this concept might be a bit to wrap your head around. I have to admit that I was a little nervous sitting down to create my first card, but some very clear instructions came with the bundle and it was much easier than I anticipated. If you have any questions about this card style/technique, please feel free to reach me via the contact form to the right.

Have a fantastic week!
