Spring Catalog display boards

January 26, 2024

I thought I'd share some of my display boards featuring Spring Catalog products. I've heard back that you enjoy these so here you go…..

First up is the Hot Air Balloon and Bee My Valentine projects:

Save

Remember that many of these are swaps and are not made by me. I like to group cards together that use the same stamp set or designer paper.

Here is the Hot Air Balloon dies display. See the Hot Air Balloon bundle here.

Save

Next is the Perennial Lavender suite plus the Hills of Tuscany stamp set on the lower left.

Save

Here's a close-up of the Perennial Postage dies I put together. These are fabulous! See them online here.

Save

Next is the Nature's Sweetness suite that features two bundles!

Save

Below is the die display I created that is part of the Notes of Nature bundle seen here.

Save

Below is the Lovely & Sweet dies display; see that bundle here.

Save

I featured both of these bundles in a recent video seen here. Everyone loved the projects!

The Lovely Lavender Paper Pumpkin kit is stunning! *get a pre-paid subscription & earn free SAB choices!

January 25, 2024
I received my January Paper Pumpkin kit yesterday and for the first time ever, I sat down and finished the entire kit! Here are my cards.

Save

The original kit makes 8 cards and 4 tags. I added 4 card bases and a few extra coordinating cardstock strips and ended up with 12 cards! They released the add on kit for the Lovely Lavender card kit today; it's just $11.50 and you can see it here. It comes with everything but the stamp set & ink spot!

*I love these cards so much I'm featuring the add-on kit in a card kit to go in February!

Here's another alternative idea I made with the kit:

Save

I used our Deckled Circle dies and the new Love of Spring 'add-on' dies for Paper Pumpkin subscribers. The 'love' and the label die-cut are from these dies! These dies can be seen here and are just $12.

I textured the white circle with the Exposed Brick embossing folder and added a 3/4" Garden Green strip to the Highland Heather card base. The twine is from the kit and the gems are our new Fine Shimmer Purple gems.

Save

If you aren't a Paper Pumpkin subscriber I want to consider it. The kits are worlds better than they were in the past. I love receiving one every month and having easy creative projects I can do when I have free time. No planning or prep; just creative fun!

Save

Here are your choices when subscribing to Paper Pumpkin:
1. Purchase a 1, 3, 6 or 12 month subscription here. *get free Sale-a-Bration choices through February!!
2. Subscribe to receive a kit each month here.
I highly recommend getting the 12 month pre-paid choice. When you do, if you add just $57 more to the 12-month subscription, you'll get 2 more for a total of 6 ($50) SAB choices + $36 hostess rewards + extra $30 hostess rewards! It's a pretty good deal!

Save
Did you know that you are in charge of which kits you receive? Once you purchase a pre-paid subscription or subscribe you can opt out of any kit you do not want. Stampin' Up! shares what's coming up each month so you can decide if you want it or not. You have complete control!

*Plus when you subscribe with me, LeeAnn Greff, you'll qualify for a FREE tutorial each month.
- This tutorial PDF is filled with 10 or more alternate ideas for additional projects you can make with each month's kit (includes photos & instructions) – making your kit go a lot further! *see example photo below

Gorgeous Rocker cards with a video tutorial & free project sheet!

January 24, 2024

Here's another special card I shared on last week's Live video. It's called a 'rocker card'.

Save

The pretty roses are from the Softly Stippled designer series paper – seen here in our Sale-a-Bration catalog. I fussy cut the roses on the upper circles and colored them with Pool Party ink and a Wink of Stella. I love coloring with my Wink of Stella as it adds a beautiful shimmer. Watch the video below to see how.

It's made with our Deckled Circle dies seen here. There are a ton of them in the set – 14 sizes! They carried over from our Holiday catalog and can be seen online.

Save

For the card base I used the second from the largest die; it's almost 5 1/2" wide. Once you cut it, score it in half at 2 3/4".

Of course you'll use the next size down for the front half layer and the inside.

I post at least two of these free tutorials each week! I hope you'll subscribe to my blog. Go to the right side and click on 'get email updates'. Then you won't miss a thing!

The second sample was made with Calypso Coral & Pebbled Path. It seems like Pebbled Path is a perfectly beautiful color to pair most of our soft colors with.

My greetings are from the Softly Sophisticated bundle seen here. It's paired with a beautiful embossing folder and is free with any $100 purchase from Stampin' Up!.
