Oooops!

I'm sorry. I thought I could connect our currant inspirational catalog and Bloom your way mini, but, alas, I didn't do it right! Meanwhile you can copy and paste my shopping addy in your browser and shop from there.
Happy krafting!

Happy New Year!
As 2016 comes to a close and we get ready to embark on a new year I find myself questioning myself. Am I ready to commit to a full time craft blog? Do I have what it takes to keep a blog fresh and interesting? It's pretty daunting. I would love for Kitty's Krafty Korner to take off and bring new followers, but I'm hesitant....am I ready? Can I do it? Well, I am ready to bring out a new me!
I love this crafting business and community. I want to bring my ideas to a blog. I want all my followers to get as excited about Fun Stampers Journey as I am. I loved this company from the minute I held my first catalog. Deeply etched red rubber stamps for a great stamped impression. Hybrid inks, pigment and die based. Wow. Bundles. Stamp and die bundles that will make your imagination run wild. 2 die cutting machines to help you out. Both have a magnetic platform. Splashes and inks to add another dimension to your projects. Embellish your projects with ribbons, gems, pearls, buttons and more. So much. I get excited just talking about it! And the benefits! Oh my. Why wait for a once a year sale? Get 1 free specifically chosen item free  with every $50.00 purchase. Yes. FREE. It all adds up to a terrific hostess party.
When your ready to join the journey, please, loo me up. I'd love to help you succeed.
Thanks

Whew! What a busy few weeks. The 4th of July weekend was a whirlwind. House full of company and my daughter and her boyfriend was here so I got to spend her birthday wuth her! She's a firecracker!
I'm slowly picking up new Fun Stampers Journey iitems so I can start offering up some classes. This company has so many fun, fresh items I find myself dreaming of all the possibilities. From the bright card stock and inks to sprays and silks. Beautiful patterned papers (what great price,too!), stamps with matching dies. Planners and pocket albums. Oh, and jewelry! There is something for everyone. And a stamp for all occasions.
Soon I will post some pictures and promotions.
Enjoy the long days of summer. Until next time krafty peeps,
Marlene

I can't believe I've been away from my blog for so long! So much has been going on and I've been juggling a bunch of stuff (work and health wise) but I'm ready to get back to the crafting blogasphere and let you know what I'm up to.
First of all, I have never been exclusive to any craft company....until now. I am a coach for Fun Stampers Journey! I saw the catalog and fell in love. Stamps, dies, paper, cardstock, inks, and so much more. The colors are fantastic. The inks are a fusion of pigment and dye. And the stamps are red rubber that stamp beautifully. More about that as I gather my supplies and get busy.
So, this week is all about graduation cards. I've been asked to make 5 cards in 3 different school colors. I loved the whole process. I've been scrapbooking with my friend Becky. Her oldest graduated this year and she is trying to get her albums in order. I've really enjoyed the time spent working with her.
That is about it. I'll be getting some help with my blog to better serve anyone who wants to check out my Fun Stampers Journey website and my Plexus site. When those sites are up and running I'll post a link on my blog.
Thanks and happy rafting everyone!

It's been a busy few months. Had 2 new babies born  on my husbands side of the family and our triplet nephews turned 4. Their mom made them each an awesome cake from Sesame Street so I thought bags to match would look cute and they were a big hit!

Next up are a couple of gift bags for Valentine's Day. Really cute and quick to put together. Papers from Target and trim is from Joann's

Wow! It's been a busy 2 months around here. Tomorrow I send the yearbook for my son's school off to the printer and then I can get back to my krafty korner and get busy! In my last post I promised pics of decorated bags.......here are a few:

I made a couple baby shower cards, I can only find the card for a baby boy, but I'll keep looking.

And my dad turned 72 today so we had a little party for him yesterday and I made a birthday banner for him: I used CTMH Art Philosophy for the banners cut at 6". The scallop was also on that cart cut at 4". Happy Birthday was cut from Birthday Bash as was the party hat.

Wow! I can't believe how how fast time flies. It's already one week into 2013 and I'm just getting back to my blog. Christmas was great, loved all the time home, little sad to be going back to work this week but if I'm going on another scrapbook retreat in a few weekks I'm going to need a little extra cash!
Over vacation I discovered I LOVE to decorate bags. You know the kind you can pick up at Michael's or A.C. Moore 12 to a pack. So much fun and they turned out beautiful. I will post pics in a day or two.
I've been asked to make up a basket of homemade all occassion cards for an auction at my son's school. Pretty excited about that! I love when people appreciate my efforts. I love making cards, bags, pages and just re-doing something to make it beautiful and to have people ask for my services is a wonderful feeling.
Now, I better get back to the krafty korner and make something beautiful!
Happy krafty peeps :)
