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. 


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!

  • Dressed to Impress Best Dressed Triple Fold card


    The retired list will be out this afternoon.

    Stop back in to see it or click here to see it all in my store.

    Here's the Best Dressed fun fold card I promised you yesterday.  (See the Ornate Garden cards here.) 

    Look at this cute fun fold card!  See how the paper matches up across the three panels?  So clever! **Watch the video here on Facebook. 

    This card is standard 5 1/2" X 8 1/2" but you score it at 1 1/2" and 4 1/4" to get the triple fold. 


    The best part of this fun fold card is how it makes the most of your designer paper!  Each card uses one piece measuring 5 1/4" X 6".  Cut the Best Dressed paper into three pieces; the first (left) piece at 2 3/4" wide X 5 1/4" tall, the middle piece at 1 1/8" wide and the right (inside) piece at 2 1/8" X 5 1/4".

    Those three pieces add up to 6" across!  What a great way to use your designer paper! You can make 4 cards from a 12" sheet! The white layer inside the card (for writing or stamping onto) is 5 1/4" X 1 3/4". 

    I added a pretty die-cut border cut from the Ornate Borders die; love the eyelet detail on it!  The set of dies are currently unavailable but should be back in stock in early May.
    The greeting layers are cut using the Stitched Nested Labels and the flowers and leaves are stamped and fussy cut. The colors are Old Olive and Purple Posy. 

    The stamps are all from the Dressed to Impress stamp set seen here. 



    The die-cuts here are from the Stitched So Sweetly dies from the mini catalog; also currently out of stock and unavailable.  They should be back in next week. The colors here are Lovely Lipstick and Mint Macaron. 

    See the entire Best Dressed suite of products here.

  • Ornate Thanks & Ornate Borders with a clever fun fold idea


    I shared these two pretty cards on my Facebook Live last Tuesday. (Click here to see my page.)  I made another version using the Best Dressed designer paper.  I'll share those tomorrow. 

    They are made from a standard 5 1/2" X 8 1/2" piece of card stock but you add a second score to it.  It's scored on the long side at 1 1/2" and 4 1/4".

    The best part of this fun fold card is how it makes the most of your designer paper!  Each card uses one piece measuring 5 1/4" X 6".  Cut it into three pieces; the first (left) piece at 2 3/4" wide X 5 1/4" tall, the middle piece at 1 1/8" wide and the right (inside) piece at 2 1/8" X 5 1/4".

    Those three pieces add up to 6" across!  What a great way to use your designer paper! You can make 4 cards from a 12" sheet! 

    The white layer inside the card (for writing or stamping onto) is 5 1/4" X 1 3/4".  I used the To a Wild Rose stamp set for the greeting. The leaves and greeting die-cut are from the popular Painted Labels dies (now available again!!!) 

    Here's a close up view of the greeting.  It looks like I heat embossed it right?  

    I didn't but it is sparkly!  I used the Wink of Stella pen!  It's fun to trace the stamped greeting; it's large enough that it was easy to do. 

    You can find this pretty Ornate Garden specialty paper and the entire Ornate Garden suite of products here.  

    This card base is Terracotta Tile; one of our 2019-21 In Colors.  I paired it with Mint Macaron card stock.  

    I added an extra Ornate Border trim on the inside of the card too.  You might be able to spot more Wink of Stella on the designer paper and I added it to the die-cuts too.  See that pretty Terracotta Tile ribbon?  It's part of the Ornate Garden ribbon combo pack with Old Olive.  Gorgeous soft 1/4" ribbons! 

    The label and leafy die-cuts here are from the To a Wild Rose bundle seen here.

  • Two days left and they’ll be gone!


    The retiring list is coming out this week Wednesday and these bright and vibrant In Colors will be gone within hours!  They're the 2018-20 In Colors seen on page 164 of the Annual Catalog. Click here to see everything available in these colors; there's a lot! 

    Be sure to order by Wednesday before they're gone!  

    I created 5 cute cards; one in each color using the Daisy Lane & Sweetly Swirled stamp sets.  These cards are going out to my family this week.  

    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: 

    Details:
    Main cards 5 1/2" X 8 1/2"
    Black 3 1/2" X 4 1/2"
    White 3 1/4" square plus 3/4" strips for greetings
    In Color DSP 1" X 3 1/4"


    Products used:

    Sweetly Swirled & Daisy Lane stamp sets, Retiring 2018-20 In colors plus Black ink, Daisy punch, Faceted gems, In Color ribbons & In Color enamel dots

    See the Retiring In Color items here while supplies last!
