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!!

    I used Black ink for the greetings and swirls and the In Color inks for the daisy. The Medium Daisy punch is part of a bundle with the Daisy Lane stamp set seen here. Remember that it will not be available as a bundle after May, 2020. Even if both items return in the next catalog, bundles always retire from one catalog to the next. 

    Here's the Lovely Lipstick version:

  • Best Dressed FB Live cards

    I made these 3 pretty cards during my weekly 'Stamp with Me' Facebook Live last night.  

    Best Dressed cards Save

    Each Thursday at 8 pm CT we'll finish 3 cards together in about 30 minutes.   Prep your pieces ahead of time using the measurements I provide and you'll be surprised how quickly you can make your cards!  Join me here: 

    I used the Best Dressed Designer paper seen here but you can substitute other paper, colors, stamps and punches. The stamped greetings are from the Peaceful Moments set here. I use this stamp set so much; the sentiments are wonderful.

    After the video many people share their finished cards. It's so fun to see what products everyone uses and how similar (or not) they are to mine. 

    Here are the details and close up views of these three cards:

  • Color Challenge with Seriously the Best with Ornate Frames

    My Flowerbug's Team had a color challenge this past month – to use Black and White with a 'Pop' of color.  Here's the card I made: 

    Seriously the Best Black White & Poppy Save

    This card literally took me 5 minutes to make.  Here's the steps:

    1. Cut a White card base 5 1/2" X 8 1/2"
    2. Cut the See a Silhouette DSP to 4" X 5 1/4".  Adhere to the card
    3. Die-cut two pieces a White 2 1/2" X 4"  stitched rectangle and a Black Ornate Frame.
    4. Stamp the greeting and leaves in Black Memento ink.  Add the flowers in Poppy Parade ink. Adhere to the card.
    5. Stamp the 'I miss you a lot' greeting on a scrap of White. Punch out with the Classic Label punch. Add with mini dimensionals.
    6. Add a few rhinestones. Done! 

    You can see the See a Silhouette stamp set here and the Ornate Frames dies here.  Remember that if you order any Ornate bundle from me in April you get a free 3 cards pre-cut kit!  Details below:
