Bee My Valentine sneak peak projects! With a free project sheet


There's a new bundle coming in January with the 2024 Spring catalog!  It's called 'Bee My Valentine' and it's super fun!

I LOVE the builder punch and how versatile it is.  The large heart shape is for the wings, but could be used as a heart too. The small heart works on it's own or for the antenna. The bee body could be a word bubble!

We made this adorable card at a recent Team gathering called OnStage @ Home. 

The colors include Poppy Parade, Pool Party, Daffodil Delight, Black & White. The bee wings are made from our Vellum cardstock, colored with Pool Party ink by pressing the ink pad directly to the paper. I heat set the color with a heat tool before I stamped the wings in Black. Vellum does not absorb ink quickly so heat setting with a heat tool can be necessary.

You can spy a few new products here – the Bee Mine designer paper (side strips) and the new Poppy Parade ribbon. 

I made a bunch of them to use as thank you cards:

  • Slim Sayings bundle is so versatile!


    Here are a few more samples featuring the Slimline Sayings bundle that is retiring this month.  See yesterday's cards here. 

    This first card features the Hues of Happiness designer paper. 

    The pretty ombre design in the Hues of Happiness DSP is beautiful with the beautiful die-cut design.  I used the Tailor Made Tags for my greeting layers and stamped the 'one' on a piece of So Saffron to make it pop. 

    Here's the Slim Sayings stamp set; I love this greeting set so much. The variety of fonts and occasions are so versatile.  

    The card on the right below is simply three colors of card stock – Navy, Soft Succulent and Just Jade.  I cut out one in each color to be able to make 3 cards!  Just mix & match to fill in the center with the chevron pieces. 

    Measurements:

    • Card base 8 1/2" X 7 1/4" scored at 3 5/8"
    • die-cut 3 1/2" X 8 1/2"
    • DSP 8 3/8" X 3 3/8"

    Here are some wonderful samples from Stampin' Up! with this unique bundle. See it here; but don't forget that the dies are sold separately at 50% off right now.

  • Fabulous card made with the Slim Card dies; they’re 50% off!


    This is one of the cards we made at my May card clubs. It features the Slim Sayings bundle in the retiring Jan-June catalog by Stampin' Up!  

    However, right now the dies are on sale at 50% off with the Last Chance list. See everything on sale here.  

    My card base is White and I added a piece of Sun Prints Designer Paper behind the chevron die-cut.  Scroll down for measurements and the video too. 

    Did you know we have Slimline Envelopes that perfectly match these dies and a typical slim line card?  They carried over into the new Annual Catalog too.  They come in 3 colors; White, Smoky Slate & Soft Succulent. See them here.  

    I used the Slim Saying stamp set along with the Nature's Prints bundle from the new 2022-23 Annual Catalog.  See the Slim Saying stamp set here and the Nature's Prints bundle here. 

    At club they chose either a birthday card or a graduation card; it works for both. And some made theirs into a wedding or anniversary card! 

    The Slim Saying stamp set & Slim Card dies are both retiring and are while supplies last.  I'll be sharing more cards with this bundle today on my FB Live here at 11 am CT and also this week right here on my blog.  

    Measurements:
    White card base 8 1/2" X 7 1/4" scored at 3 5/8", White for die-cut 3 1/2" X 8 1/2", greeting 4 1/2" X 5/8"
    • Soft Succulent for greeting layer 3/4" X 4 1/2" & scrap for leaf die-cut
    • Smoky Slate scrap for fern die-cut
    • DSP 8 3/8" X 3 3/8"

  • I’ve got more ideas yet! Botanical Layers bundle cards with video


    I challenged myself to use each pattern of the vellum included in the Lovely Layers vellum.  You can see it here; you get 60 sheets in the pack!  It includes 4 different prints and many sheets of plain vellum too. 

    This first card has a printed circle on it.  The easy solution was to add a die-cut wreath.  I used three sets of dies here; the Natural Prints, Amazing Thanks & Hydrangea dies.

    My colors are Parakeet Party, Fresh Freesia, Black & White.  The vellum in the kit is 1/4" larger than the 4 3/4" X 3 1/2" white layer. 

    Remember that it helps to place a White layer under your vellum to see it's true color.  

    Here are two cards; both using the Lovely Layers Vellum.

    For this card I textured it with the new Quatrefoil Tile embossing folder.  Embossing vellum is a wonderful way to add it to your projects; it's texture and opaqueness is so beautiful. 

    The colors are Polished Pink & Parakeet Party.  I used the Poppy Moments and Natural Prints dies for the greenery and the Nature's Prints stamp set for the stamped leaves and greeting.
