My website has changed.

Hello friends.

As December is almost coming to an end, I like to wish you all a

Merry Christmas and a Creative and Healthy New Year.

I have a couple things to share about my small business:

My Stampin' Up! website has changed to: https://carlabosselaar_1.stampinup.net/

Please use this website if you like to contact me, place an order or like to RSVP for a class.

Starting January I will have three classes, the first 2 classes make the same projects:

Being a Stampin’ Up! demonstrator is so rewarding. Not only do I get to be creative every day, I also get to be a creative coach, offering fresh project ideas and encouragement to my customers and friends. For me, helping someone put together that perfect project for a special occasion is the best feeling in the entire world. After all, creating cards, scrapbook pages, and gift items is about more than just stamps and ink—it’s about sharing a part of yourself with the people you love.

Thank you for supporting my small business, I hope to see you in the New Year.

Take good care.

Happy Stamping,

• Whisper White is cut 5 1/4" x 4". 
• Designer paper is cut 10" x 4 3/4".
• Make a mark at 3/4" on one of the 4 3/4" sides.
• Turn and mark the other 4 3/4" side and 3/4". 
• Cut designer paper at an angle from mark to mark.
• On one of the diagonal pieces, start at the wide end and score at 2", 3", 5", 6", 8", and 9".
• Accordion fold on the score lines to make your drapery fold.
