Easy Diagonal cards; Stamp With Me tonight at 7:30 pm!

This week I'm highlighting some of the cards I've recently made on Facebook Live.  With two a week there's a lot! 

Here are the cards for tonight's Facebook Live 'Stamp with Me' here. 

Save

I chose the pretty Misty Moonlight & Seaside Spray combination for these cards.  I love the two toned look of these In Colors together.  When you add White for a pop of brightness they really shine!  

Join me here tomorrow night.  Prep the pieces, gather some supplies and we'll stamp together! 

I used the Queen Anne's Lace stamp set seen here in Misty Moonlight, White & Seaside Spray.

• 3 new kits by Stampin’ Up! now available in the store

  April 17, 2025

  ---

  Stampin' Up! released 3 new kits in their substantial Kit Collection this month.  Two are cards and one is a beautiful bouquet of paper flowers.  

  Save

  You can find each of these kits and many more on this link.  Even though I am an experienced crafter I love working with kits.  It's a lovely break from thinking and planning.  But if I want to be creative I can still jazz up the kits.

  My favorite is the Paper Bouquet kit.  I ordered two – one for my daughter for Mother's Day.  What a perfect gift!

  Today I'm sharing the cards we made at my March card clubs.  I also shared it in last week's video.

  I featured the Thankful Garden bundle from our Online Exclusives.  This bundle includes a stamp set, coordinating dies and the set of 5 masks.  Click here to see it online.

  I shared quite a few helpful tips on using these masks in the video here.  Using them with our Blending Brushes truly makes you feel like an artist!  You get the multi-colored & layered effect so easily.

  The greetings here are from the Unbounded Love stamp set.  My colors include Fresh Freesia, Black, Lemon Lime Twist and Balmy Blue.  

  Can you notice the 4 differences between the cards below?  Which one is your favorite?
