Good morning and…HAPPY HAPPY HAWWWWMP DAY!!! Hope your week is going well – it is here. Although we’re doing taxes (yes – for 2022 – we ALWAYS file on the extension! 🤷♀️) so…you know. THAT’S fun! Bleh.
When I’m in the throes of taxes – I have no creative mojo. I just don’t. I can’t get the left side of my brain to engage at all. But…RIGHT Brain needed a break. Enter….All Inclusive Kits! 🙂
I’d just received the new Christmas Everywhere Kit so…it was the obvious choice for having a little crafty-time!
I found everything in the kit that I needed to make eight nine pretty cards – including a Lost Lagoon ink spot, a great Christmas sentiment (and TREES) stamp set….
…an acrylic block and a huge sheet of Stampin’ Dimensionals! Hint: cut those dimensionals in half and you’ll have a ton of leftovers for another project!
That’s something really cool about our All-Inclusive kits – EVERYthing you need is there, making them perfect for new crafters, traveling, sharing or gifting! 😎
I sat down and had the cards together in just a little over 30 minutes. That’s what I call instant gratification!!
Do you see the Palm Trees?? Love!
There are three designs – and I went right with the directions for the first one that I did. Wanted to get a feel for the kit!
The tree die cuts all have little Real Red rhinestones embedded in them – you just pop them out of their sheet and pop them onto the card front!
The colors in this kit are perfect for Christmas – Granny Apple Green, Lost Lagoon, Pecan Pie, Pretty Peacock, Real Red!
I moved to the second and third designs – and decided to pull in some palm trees and cacti! Check out the bling on the cactus pots!
All the cards got some trees in Lost Lagoon ink on the inside…
…and I also stamped the front of the included envelopes.
The inside of the envelope flaps are pre-decorated for you.
I ended up with several different iterations of the trees on the fronts of the cards – and I love how fun they all are!
These were super easy to put together – and here’s the proof in this short video from Stampin’ Up!
So – I hope this kit is on your list now – if it is…head over and pick one (or three!!) up right quick!
You can see ALL of the kits currently available in the Kits Collection By Stampin’ Up! in the online store here. The kits are available for anyone to purchase, you don’t even need a subscription! 🙂

Finn Fan Fix
When I have a big box of mail – we stick a note in the mailbox and then leave the front gate open. Our nice mail lady drives up and takes the packages.
She’s pretty good about tooting her horn when she pulls up – but…we were in the living room, DOING THE TAXES! – and didn’t hear her.
But…Eagle-Ear Finn DID!
woof.
Yeah – it was about that loud. We actually thought he was dreaming…
woof.
Thinking maybe he WAS actually alerting on something…we headed to the door.
Yup!
Wayne took the mail out – while Cujo kept an Eagle-Eye on…the door. He’s got a LOT of “eagle parts”, apparently….
That wasn’t really working, though. What if Dad was in trouble?!
THAT’S better!
I got your Six, Dad!

Such a cute kit! Love the fun colors and the designs are perfect! Love that there are palm trees and cactus that you can use too! Good thing that Finn was on duty…you never know when that mail lady is going to do something suspicious. They’re almost as sneaky as cats and squirrels! 😉
YES! That’s it exactly – got to watch them EVERY second! Thanks, Amy – it’s a really cute kit! 🙂
Adorable Christmas cards, Mary! I love how easy the kits make it to create beautiful cards!
Finn is keeping watch I see…good boy!
It really is a good kit! And yep – he’s a very good boy, indeed! :). Thanks, Carol! 🙂
Mary, I thought I was the only one that did that. I would rather give blood than to do taxes. I did get mine to my accountant last month. Every year I say I’m going to get them in early…I think my accountant would go into shock.
I KNOW we’d get audited if we did it early. The SAD part is that this stress is in ORDER to give it to the accountant…🤷♀️🤷♀️. Sigh. Thanks, Sandi! 🙂
