July’s Card Kit to Go; the beautiful Expressions in Ink Specialty DSP!

The Expressions in Ink designer paper is stunning; I had to feature it in my July cards kit to go!  The cards in this kit show it off beautifully. 

This pretty designer paper has been unavailable for the last month; Stampin' Up! expects to have it this week.  I'm sure hoping they're right!

    2022 SAB join Save

    During our Sale-a-Bration promotion (ends February 28th) you can choose $125 in product of your choice for just $99.  Plus TWO free stamp sets too!  In addition to that the Starter kit includes a free Paper Pumpkin kit, business supplies and catalogs too. 

    I polled my Flowerbug's Team to ask them why they joined when they did. 

    Top 5 reasons my gals chose the Stampin' Up! Starter Kit:

    1. A good deal
    2. Continuous discount
    3. Love of Stampin’ Up! products
    4. See new products & catalogs early (cannot wait!)
    5. Ordering regularly anyway

    You may think you have to 'sell' or hold events.  Or order a bunch of items to have on hand.  Nope!  Here are some myths you might have about being a Stampin' UP! Demonstrator: 

    Myths:

    1. You have to sell.  Or hold classes.  Nope! I call my gals who simply enjoy the discount ‘Happy Shoppers’.  
    2. It’s a commitment.  Wrong. You can quit ordering at any time. Enjoy it while you can and end when you want. There's no pressure from me or Stampin’ Up! to do more than you want to.
    3. You have to join in swaps or group activities. It's your choice.   
    4. I don’t have time.  You're in charge! Spend as much time as you want on this hobby; nothing has to change.
    5. I’m not creative enough.  Case & copy anything you see online or use any of my free tutorials.      

    Here are some Facts:  

    1. To stay active, you need $300 in orders/sales each quarter.  But with the 20% discount you’re really paying just $240 out of pocket!  But you get the benefits of the full $300. WOW! And you're taxed on the lower amount; not the full $300. 
    2. Your first quarter is waived so you do not need the $300 in orders until the end of June. That means you can pre-order from the new 2021 Annual catalog that starts in April.  New In Colors!
    3. You get all of the benefits a customer does; including free host rewards and we get our discount on top of special promotions.
    4. Plus we get extra $$ income if our orders/sales are over a certain amount each month. That includes our own orders!

  • An amazing flower from the Ladybug Builder punch? Yes!

    I have been sharing many cards made with the Hello Ladybug stamp & punch bundle in the last few days.  I've gone a bit crazy with it lately!  If you missed them scroll to the next few posts before this one or watch the video here to see most of them.  

    I've seen a few samples of flowers made with the Ladybug Builder punch and had to try one myself.  I love the dimension you get when you curl the 'wings' a bit!

    It's definitely a 3D type flower; maybe suited best for a box or gift bag.  Wouldn't that be pretty!

    I punched 'wings' from the Ladybug Builder punch from our Simply Marbelous designer paper.  This paper is free during our Sale-a-Bration promotion through February 28th.  See it here!  

    SIMPLY MARBLEOUS 6" X 6" (15.2 X 15.2 CM) DESIGNER SERIES PAPER Save

    It's my top favorite item in our Sale-a-Bration catalog!  I love that each sheet is monochromatic on both sides; many shades of the same colors. Don't miss out on this amazing paper. 

    I used quite a few punched wings to make these flowers.  Start with a 1 1/2" – 1 3/4" circle punch as a base to add them to, working your way from outside towards the center.  Be sure to curl them first with a bone folder.

    This card is also a unique fun fold I'd never seen before.  I used our Stitched Rectangle dies to cut a partial window in the front fold.  You can get my tips on achieving this fold in the video seen here or below.

    I used the Basic Patterns Decorative Masks seen here for my background.  Our blending brushes make this a breeze.

  • How to make a bumblebee with the Ladybug Builder punch

    This month my Flowerbug's Team's swap theme was cards featuring an animal, bug or bird with a unique fold.  I decided to use the Hello Ladybug bundle for mine. Click here to see the bundle.  I changed the ladybug into a bumblebee!

    I shared how to make this card on last week's Facebook Live.  It's now on YouTube as well.  Click here to see it and two other cards featuring this cute Ladybug Builder punch.

    You may have seen this done before; it's so simple if you have some Black & White designer paper.  I colored the white stripes with a Dark Daffodil Delight Blends marker.  I used the Ladybug Builder punch to punch out the body circle and added it to the main Black Ladybug body.  

    Then I punched out wings from Vellum.  I made them double wings by folding a piece of vellum in half and punching so the fold was intact.  The wings are adhered with a few mini glue dots.

    Details:

    • I used the Beautiful Shapes dies seen here for the hexagon shapes.  
    • Designer paper is the All Together 6 X 6" black & white paper seen here. 
    • The Bumblebee hexagon is textured with the Hive 3D embossing folder.
    • That hexagon embellishment on the greeting was pink. It's one of three colored in the Adhesive-backed Hexagon gems in the 2022 Jan-June catalog. I colored it with the Dark Daffodil Delight blends marker.

    This is an easy fun fold card to make.  And it makes great use of your Designer Paper – you can get 2 fronts from each 6 X 6" piece or 8 fronts from a 12 X 12" piece of paper.
