I love that they give us a hint about what we'll receive each month.  This lets subscribers decide if they want to get it, order an extra or opt out.  I spy wood rounds, flowers and pinecones.

This May kit includes:

• All the supplies you need to create 9 card, 3 each of 3 designs, plus 9 coordinating envelopes.
• A 7-piece all-occasion stamp set that celebrates good friends and great adventures!
• 1 Copper Clay (new In Color!) Classic Stampin’ Spot.
• Twine and die-cut accents
• FREE stickers to put on your projects or anything you want—water bottles, laptops, coolers, and more!
• Finished card size: 4-1/4" x 5-1/2" 
• Coordinating Stampin’ Up! colors: Boho Blue, Copper Clay, Daffodil Delight, Moody Mauve, Mossy Meadow, Pebbled Path, Wild Wheat

Subscribers also get to add on the Exploring In Color cards & envelopes this month.  They're available while supplies last.  

What a fantastic deal!!  I always get these; the value is incredible!  18 cards and 18 envelopes for just $10. To me it looks like all these pretty cards need is a greeting to finish them off. See them here.

It's one of the perks of being a subscriber.  They offer us some fun add-ons now & then.  I also like that we get to order kit refills if and when they become available. Refills of the monthly kits are usually $11 and include everything in the original kit except the ink spot & stamps.

• 3 cards with my ‘Life is Beautiful’ MDA stamp set!

  July 16, 2020

  ---

  You may have spied my stamp set in a previous post, but I haven't shared much yet!  You can be sure I will be posting quite a few projects with it.

  If you didn't know, it's a stamp set I helped create as a perk of achieving a Million Dollars in sales in my career with Stampin' Up!  It's so cool to have my name posted under the stamp set in the upcoming 2020 August – December Stampin' Up! catalog! 

  I shared three technique cards using the Life is Beautiful stamp set on FB live last week.   I did upload it to YouTube so everyone can watch. *see below 

  Save

  The top left card is created by stamping and heat embossing the leaves with White embossing powder.  Then coloring over with Blends alcohol markers.  Such a cool effect and actually fun to color too.  The dark card stock covers most mistakes if you go off the image a bit. 

  Save

  The colors are Bermuda Bay, Black and Mango Melody.  The pretty label tags are die-cuts from the Tasteful Labels dies seen here. 

  I wanted to have a play with a rainbow style card using the distinktive dots in the set.  

  Save

  I used Gorgeous Grape, Poppy Parade, Daffodil Delight, Granny Apple Green, Bermuda Bay and Pacific Point here.  The greeting is from another MDA set called Ridiculously Awesome. 

  Next is a simple baby wipe technique.  

  Save

  I stamped the tree twice to create a wider trunk and more branches.  The colors here are Coastal Cabana, Soft Suede with Granny Apple Green and Pretty Peacock dots.

• Accordion Style Fun-Fold card with video

  July 15, 2020

  ---

  Here's another easy fun fold card that shows off all sides of your designer series paper.  And uses up thin strips too! 

  I made them during my weekly 'Stamp With Me' Facebook Live last week.  

  Save

  I chose to use the Brights 6 X 6" designer paper pack and the Many Mates stamp set.  

  Save

  Aren't they fun?  The back is flat and does not open.  You could include a full card base on it instead of a flat piece if you'd like.  I will write or sign the inside on the larger White part.

  You might notice there are dots around some of the punched pieces.  I used my Blends markers to add that fun detail.  I also colored in some of the words on the greetings too.  This stamp set is fun! 

  When you adhere the greeting on the front add adhesive to just the very top flap. 

  Save
