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.

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.

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!!

  • Trusty Tools ‘Toolbox’ Treat box with video & free project sheet!

    Happy Valentine's Day! 

    I had to try my hand at making a treat box using the Trusty Toolbox designer paper. So I came up with this & shared it on last week's video here.

    Trusty Toolbox Save

    Isn't it adorable?  It holds quite a few candy treats plus there's room for a gift card too. I plan to give this to my husband today.

    I decided to change it up a bit and added a pegboard (made with the Trusty Tools' dies seen here) to the back of my second box.

    Trusty Toolbox with pegboard Save

    The tools in the box are cut from the Trusty Toolbox designer paper seen here. You can use the Trusty Tools dies for some of them as they coordinate wonderfully.  But honestly I fussy cut most of them. 

    Trusty Toolbox Save

    Details:

    • The box is 3 1/2" wide and the 1 1/2" deep & high. The pegboard is 4 1/2" tall. 
    • The 'Celebrate' greeting is from the Thoughtful Moments dies & emboss folder seen here.  My new favorite! I added ink after I cut the word out using my brayer very, very gently. *watch the video to see how
    • There are two handles glued back to back in the center. 
    • The tools are adhered to the front, center layer and the back to give depth & interest to the box. 
    • The tool designer paper on the front & sides are also from the Trusty Toolbox designer paper from our Sale-a-Bration catalog.

    Aren't they just adorable?!  What a great little treat to give to the guys?  And why not the gals too?

  • A special Trusty Tools Double-box fun fold card – free project sheet & video tutorial

    We made this fabulous men's fun-fold card at my January Card Clubs; I also shared it on last week's Live video too.  

    Trusty Tools Club Jan Save

     

    It features Gray Granite, Crushed Curry, Poppy Parade & White plus a bit of our Holographic specialty paper for the wrench die-cut.  

    This double box fun fold card can be positioned two ways – horizontal like this or vertical where the left box is the bottom. 

    A few details:

    • All 3 die-cuts on the front are from the Trusty Tools bundle & die set.
    • The neat textured Gray Granite layer is Metal Place 3D embossing folder. 
    • The tool designer paper is the Trusty Toolbox 12" DSP – seen here.  It's free during Sale-a-Bration with any $50 purchase.  I'm actually surprised they haven't run out of it yet!!

    If you order the Trusty Tools bundle you can earn the coordinating Trusty Toolbox designer paper FREE! It's $54.75 for the bundle.
