The Monthly Mail Maker

I’m so excited to introduce you to The Monthly Mail Maker.  I've been thinking about this concept for weeks now.  If you've been with me for awhile, you are aware of my bumpy health journey these last couple of years. I recently just hit 8 months since my stem cell transplant for my leukemia. And as I've been thinking of this challenging journey, I've realized just how important crafting has been for me these last few months as I've been getting stronger in my recovery. I make a point of trying to do a little crafting each day.  Initially it was because I'm so immuno-compromised that I can't be around people which means I'm confined to home, walks around my neighborhood, or doctor visits.  I found that the more I crafted, the more inspired I felt. The more the creativity flowed.

I realized that crafting regularly could be just as therapeutic for you, too. But there are a number of reasons that stop us from having that regular dose of creativity.  Funds could be tight, limited time, space to store lots of supplies isn't available, you're not feeling inspired or maybe you're overwhelmed with too many options--there are a number of reasons to not make time for creating.  

I believe I have the answer!  My new Monthly Mail Maker! 

New and so exciting!  It’s an easy and cost-effective way to get regular crafting time each month.  It's not only a way for you to get happy mail each month, but also a way for you to create happy mail and send out 2 handmade cards each month.  Together we'll be spreading handmade love!

There are 2 options to choose from.

Both options contain a small curated supply of coordinating Stampin’ Up! products--enough to create 2 cards with minimal or no leftover supplies.  That means no storage space is necessary.  Because the items are all coordinating, you are guaranteed creative success.  It also gives you the ability to see and play with new patterned and specialty papers, embellishments, die-cuts and more without needing to make a large commitment.  Envelopes are even included so that you'll be all set to mail out your handmade creations once you’ve made them!

The Maker’s Mix lets you be in control of the creative journey. You put together the supplies as you desire.

Who is The Maker’s Mix perfect for?  Everyone!

• Are you limited on storage space?  This is perfect for you. You’ll have minimal to no leftover supplies.

• Are you limited on funds?  This is perfect.  It’s very reasonably priced.  Perfect for anyone on a budget.

• Do you like trying all the new products but don’t want the commitment of lots of leftover products?  This option gives you just a taste of new items.  No excess!

• Do you feel overwhelmed with too many craft supplies?  You’ll find with a more limited supply of products, you’ll feel more inspired to create.  You’ll also be less overwhelmed with fewer options.

• Do you enjoy a creative challenge?  By receiving a packet of coordinating products with no guide on what to create, you can get creative knowing you have what you need to create a successful card because everything goes together!  There are no rules.  And if you do want a guide—there’s an option for that.  Check out The Maker’s Manual.  It includes all the supplies in The Maker’s Mix PLUS a color step-by-step tutorial to create 2 handmade cards with the supplies.
