So many fabulous Kit choices – Paper Pumpkin or those in the Kit Collection


One of my favorite product lines Stampin' Up! is excelling at is their kits. There are quite a few options but a favorite is Paper Pumpkin.  Each month we get a sneak peak of the coming kit. We all have an option of getting one each month or purchasing a pre-paid subscription.  I usually get a pre-paid during Sale-a-Bration so I earn free product at the same time. 

We have until the 10th of each month to opt in for the coming kit. That's tomorrow! This month it's the Sunshine & Smiles kit; it coordinates with the Rain or Shine suite in the current Jan-June mini catalog. 

They had offered a pair of die-cuts that match the stamps in this kit but they sold out.  

Opt in here to subscribe to monthly kits – remember you have full control of which kits you receive. Skip a month or cancel.  Or choose a pre-paid subscription here. When you get a pre-paid for 3 months or more you can choose free Sale-a-Bration choices too!  At least through February 28th.

You might not realize Stampin' Up! has an entire collection of kits in the online store.  They call it the Kit Collection.  


The photo above includes just some of the kits available!  See them all here.  These kits are all inclusive which means almost everything you need is included in the kit to complete them.  

I recently made the cards in the Saying Thanks kit and LOVE how they turned out!

You can see this kit here.  It is a non-stamping kit with 9 cards & envelopes.  It's just $13 and would make a fabulous gift!  Everything comes in this kit; I believe all you need is a scissors.  

Another new and exciting kit is the Wreath of Blooms kit. 

Everything you need to make this kit is includes but they do recommend hot glue to adhere the flowers to the wreath.  It's about 8" around and costs $13. See it here.  

You might also like to know that my favorite kits – the Birthday Organizer kit – is back and available again.  It was so popular they ran out.  

This photo includes my 'jazzed up' cover and a few extra cards I made for a kit to go. I have sold out of this kit now but you can still get the original kit from Stampin' Up! here. The full kit includes the card organizer and 12 birthday cards & envelopes for just $25.  

You can see it here.  It's another 'all inclusive' non-stamping kit that most people would love to organize their cards.

  • Two pretty ‘Fancy Border’ card swaps by my Flowerbugs


    Here are the last two swap cards made by my Flowerbug's Team for our 'Fancy Borders' swap in April. 

    This first card was made by Sharon. She used the Textured Chic DSP (retired/sold out) and the Around the Bend bundle seen here.

    Love the multiple curvy scalloped borders!! Her colors include Petal Pink, Soft Succulent and Calypso Coral. She also used the Two-Tone Flora bundle seen here.  This is returning in the new catalog but it will no longer be a bundle at 10% off.  

    ~~~

    Next is a white on white card made by Ginny.  What an elegant card!  

    She used the Fern 3D folder and two sets of dies – Border Basics and Stylish Shapes. Simple & gorgeous. 

    See the Basic Border dies here:  I love these dies; they're so versatile.  I'm so glad they are carrying over into the new Annual catalog.

  • Two more ideas with the Border Basics dies


    Continuing on to share team swaps featuring fancy borders here is a unique card made by Paula.  I would never have thought of this!

    She used the Abigail Rose Designer Paper for her card front and the Basic Border dies for her lower edge.  The retiring Harvest dies seen here(discounted to $15.20 from $38) are the flowers on the front.  She cut the front flap with the dies as well as the back card base!  So cool!  

    The front flap is 2 5/8" wide.  Her card stock is Crumb Cake.  Love the brass butterflies inside!  

    ~~~

    Next is a pretty card made by Mary using the Sending Smiles bundle.  The stamp set & dies are carrying over into the new Annual catalog but they will no longer be a bundle at 10% off. 

    She used the same exact die as Paula did above; the Basic Border dies are wonderful!   

    Her colors include Fresh Freesia, Navy, Granny Apple Green and Daffodil Delight.  She also used the pretty Brass Butterflies on her card front.  

    The Designer Paper is the Hues of Happiness DSP from the Annual Catalog but it's sold out now. 

    See the Basic Border dies here:  I love these dies; they're so versatile.  Luckily they are carrying over into the new Annual catalog.

  • 2 more great card ideas with the Basic Border dies!


    Before you get to the projects today I want to let everyone know about the current shipping delays. Stampin' Up! had their highest sales day ever on April 4th – by almost 20 times the average!  Wow!  They are quite behind and have added extra staff and longer hours to get caught up.  So if you're wondering where your order is, it's coming….it will just be about 8-10 days longer than normal.  

    ~~~

    This week I'm sharing our April card swaps from my Flowerbug's team. It's so fun to see what they make; everyone has their own unique style.  I LOVE swapping with them!  

    Annette chose the Beside Me stamp set for her card. She is a master at coloring and sponging.  

    Her colors include Blueberry Bushel, Basic White & Black. The Blueberry Bushel layer is textured with the Timeworn Type folder; the greeting die-cut is from the Stylish Shapes dies. 

    She cut two curves for her card; one with the Basic White layer and another with a Black layer.  She colored the image in with Blends markers.

    Next is a neat card made by Karen who also used the Basic Border dies seen here.  

    She used the die to cut off the edge of her card and then used that second piece to create a 'vertical window' for her By the Bay specialty designer paper. This pretty paper is discounted on the Last Chance List.  See it here. 

    Her greeting and die-cut layers are from the Something Fancy bundle in the Spring catalog.  It will be in the new Annual catalog but no longer as a bundle at 10% off.
