Every year I do Grandma's Christmas shopping for her. I go over to her house with the wish lists from the Grand babies in the family and we talk over what she wants to get for each of them. This year we when got to the girls we decided it would be fun for Grandma to share her stampin' love with them! We were told Little Laura was into Crafty things (a girl after my own heart) and I had seen an idea online to create a "Make Your Own Stationary Kit" so that what do did for her.

I know the girls are not reading this so it's ok to post πŸ™‚ … but Mom's if you're reading – be surprised on Christmas!!

We decorated a pink tin with a Decor Elements Flower. Then we filled the bucket with

  • Note Cards with Envelopes
  • Pixie Pink Classic Ink
  • Stampin' Around Handle with Pixie Pink ink
  • Always in Bloom Wheel
  • and A Personalized Princess Stamp

I created one sample card and included it so she had one idea to spark her creativity. With a little help from Mom to remove the cover and slide the wheel ink into place and open her ink pad she's ready to stamp!

After we put together Laura's kit we though it would be fun to create a similar kit for Brittany. She's a little older than Laura so we came up with this idea…

We decorated the same Pink Tin with a Decor Elements flower and for Brittany we included

  • Basic Black Classic Ink
  • Friends Rock Stamp Set
  • Love Bug Stamp Set
  • Bright Colors of Sticky Notes

Again I stamped a few samples to get her started. She can stamp with the ink onto the Sticky notes and she's ready to leave a note to her friends!

I choose stamp sets that she can also stamp on white and color in with markers or colored pencils if she wants to make note cards as well.

Here's her gift all packed up…

This gift idea would also be great for Birthday or Easter. How fun would it be to put together an Easter Basket out of these kits? E-mail me if you would like help creating a stamping kit gift for your Little Princess.

Happy Stampin'
