See 2 ways to use the new ‘Crafting with You’ bundle in my video

On my weekly Live video I shared two, well actually three ways to use the incredible Crafting with You bundle seen here from Stampin' Up!  It's new in the 2023-24 Annual Stampin' Up! catalog.  Here's one of them:

Crafting with you Bubble bath Save

It's perfect for the seamstress or quilter. I couldn't resist making a card featuring some of our frequently used tools – like the paper trimmer and die-cutting machine….  

Crafting with You Azure Save

This set has so many options for crafters! It has an easel & paint brushes, yarn, embroidery hoop, sewing machine, paper crafting etc.  It's loaded!  

Crafting with you both Live Save

These cards feature TWO of our newest colors in our color families.  Left is Bubble Bath and right is Azure Afternoon.  I used Smoky Slate, White, Black and a bit of silver on my cards.  

I stamped my large white layer with the same ink as the card base and because it was a little busy I added a layer of vellum over it.  Then a stamp of Bright & Beautiful DSP before I added the textured 3" circle.  The circle also helps tone down the busy background.

A few neat tips on this card: there are two different baskets you can add items to including the yarn, paint brushes, spools of thread or even flowers.  

Crafting with you Bubble Bath Save

I show how to make the scissors in the video.  You need to cut out two; one in black and one in silver.  Trim off the silver ends and add them over the full, black scissor die-cuts.  

CRAFTING WITH YOU BUNDLE (ENGLISH) Save

For the paper crafting card I stamped the greeting on a strip of White cardstock and inserted it into the paper trimmer.  Love that the die-cut leaves this option for us.  The black 'knob' on my trimmer cuts out separately so you can add it in place as you like.  They thought of everything on this set!!

  • Sending Love Artist of the Month – party 2

    Here are the second set of Sending Love cards by our Artist of the Month – Donna.  See the first batch here.   

    First up today is a fabulous fun fold card.  

    Sending Love mailbox Save

    I often forget to cut apart my sentiment like this.  It sure adds a playful note!

    The cute grass and mailbox die-cuts are all from the Sending Love bundle seen here.  The stamp set & dies are returning in the new Annual catalog but they will no longer be a bundle at 10% off. 

    SENDING LOVE BUNDLE (ENGLISH) Save

    It starts out as a vertical card with this cute mailbox scene.  But when you open it…… you get a horizontal card!

    Sending Love mailbox Save

    I only opened the upper flap in the photo above.  You can see how it turns from a vertical card to a landscape card.  Here's what it looks like fully opened.  I love that you can read the greetings either way!

    Measurements:

    • Balmy Blue card stock – 2 pieces at 10 1/4" X 4 1/4". Score each in at 4 3/4".  Then mark at 4" and score from that mark to the outside corner.  The two pieces are adhered together in the center (under the large white layer) 
    • White – inside is 5 1/4" X 4", side triangles started out at 3 3/4" square; cut in half on the diagonal.

  • Artist of the Month showcase: Donna with the Sending Love bundle

    Donna chose the Sending Love bundle for here 'Artist of the Month' showcase.  

    Today I'll share half of the cards she made and the other half tomorrow.  

    Sending Love Coral Save

    This one is a favorite of mine. There's something about the color combination. Vanilla with Lost Lagoon & Calypso Coral. And her coloring!

    Next is a card that looks just like a postcard!  

    Sending Love Coral Save

    She stamped a background on the Starry Sky 'Postcard' layer then added the best 'faux' postcard over it.  Below is the inside view: 

    Sending Love postage inside Save

    Next is her amazing slimline card; it's a huge WOW!

    Sending Love postage inside Save

    Isn't this an amazing scene?  She used Azure Afternoon, Granny Apple Green, Gray Granite and the In Color DSP. She created the hills with the Basic Borders dies seen here.  They're half off right now at just $17.40 instead of $29.  I've used these so often and am very sad they're retiring.  

    Border basic dies Save

    The cloudy sky was created by using the cloud/scalloped Basic Border dies as a mask (top die seen above). She also used the Give it a Whirl dies seen here for the stitched cloud die-cuts; they're just $19.50 and were $39.  The 'Sending' die-cut greeting is from the Sending dies seen here.  They're also on sale for $19.80.
