Two February Card kits; first is the serenely beautiful Sand & Sea

Here are the beautiful set of cards featuring the Sand & Sea suite for my February cards kit to go. 

Save

Each month I create a unique cards kit around a group of current Stampin' Up! products.  You receive around $20 in products and it costs just $28 with the pre-cut kit and PDF tutorial!  

Besides the pre-cut supplies for 10 cards (including the punched and die-cut pieces) you'll receive the following:

• 1/2 pkg of Sand & Sea designer paper (6" X 12")
• Blushing Bride & White twine
• a share of new Opal round gems
• a share of adhesive die-cut shells
• the PDF tutorial which includes measurements, supplies, photos and step by step directions. 

**This kit does not include stamped images.  I used the Friends are like Seashells stamp set; you could use what you have or add it on to your kit. If you want either the stamp set or the bundle you can add them to your kit at an extra 10% discount! And you get a Sale-a-Bration choice then too!

*You'll also need your own ink. I used the following colors: Blushing Bride, Sahara Sand, Misty Moonlight & Pear Pizzazz.  

Order here to receive a kit by February 20th.  Or choose the PDF tutorial only here. 

*The kits should be mailed out at the end of February via Priority mail; barring any back-ordered items. 

*The PDF tutorial is emailed to you immediately upon payment.

Add my second kit in February and save on shipping!  I'll post details tomorrow but here's a peak both together!

• Flowers for Every Season

  June 11, 2020

  ---

  The Flowers for Every Season paper pack is the only 6 X 6" papers in the new Stampin' Up! Annual catalog.  Many people love the 6 X 6" papers; they find them easier to cut into for some reason.  

  I decided to use them for last week Monday night's Stamp with Me video.  Here's a link to it on Facebook. 

  Save

  This is one of my favorite I made so far with this paper; I love the new Misty Moonlight in color.  Paired with Night of Navy and White is quite striking in my opinion.  Monochrome cards can be so soothing! 

  I also used the Small Bloom punch, 2020-22 In Color Enamel Dots and the Pick a Punch. 

  Measurements:

  • Card Base 5 1/2" X 8 1/2"
    DSP 3 1/2" square and 1" X 3 1/2"
    CS layer 5" X 3 3/4"
    CS strip; textured 3/4" X 4 1/4"
    Greeting banner/punch

• Blossoms in Bloom cards; it’s pretty even without the die-cuts!

  June 10, 2020

  ---

  Today I'm sharing cards made with the Blossoms in Bloom stamp set.  It comes with a gorgeous set of dies too but today it's all about the stamps. 

  First is a pretty card made by my friend Ruth Bingle.  I always love her swap cards! 

  Save

  She used the triple time stamping technique.  This is where you cut out three layers of descending sizes of card stock and stamp on them all at the same time.  

  Her White layers are from smallest to larges: 2" X 3 1/4", 3" X 4 1/4" and 4" X 5 1/4".  The Bumblebee layers are 2 1/4" X 3 1/2", 3 1/4" X 4 1/2" and the card base of 5 1/2" X 8 1/2".  This is a fun technique to do with many style of stamps to create your own background.  

  Next is a sweet & simple card I made combining Bumblebee with Gorgeous Grape. 

  Save

  This stamp set is one of those where you stamp once and get multiple hues of color; all with one inking!  Love this so much! 

  And last is a card where I stamped directly onto the designer paper. 

  Save

  This is the In Good Taste designer paper seen here; it's full of amazing photo realistic textures like wood, tile and textiles.  My colors are Early Espresso, Flirty Flamingo with a touch of Bumblebee. The dies are from the Tasteful Labels dies seen here; my top pick for the most used/versatile dies so far!
