The Sending Smiles bundle is so versatile! Check out these two projects.


Last week I shared three projects with the Sending Smiles bundle seen here.  I think it's one of the best choices in the new Annual Catalog by Stampin' Up!  

I also wanted to use the Pretty Prints designer paper and chose the Bermuda Bay sheet in the package.  I also wanted to use one of the new In Colors and settled on Sweet Sorbet. 

Next I had to choose a coordinating color to soften these two vibrant colors and settled on Blushing Bride.  I was so surprised how well these colors combined!  

The next thing that inspired this layout was a card sketch we have been working on in my Flowerbug's Team group.  As you can see I changed the main image to be on the angle.  

Sketches are one of my favorite ways to get inspiration on card layouts. 

Measurements:

  • Card base 5 1/2" X 8 1/2" scored at 4 1/4"
  • DSP 4" square
  • White 2 3/4" square
  • Sweet Sorbet 2 7/8" square
  • Glimmer paper strip 3/8" X 4 1/4"  

Can you see that the flowers are darker in the center and lighter on the outer petals?  I inked the flowers in Sweet Sorbet ink and stamped off once.  Then I used a sponge dauber to add more Sweet Sorbet ink to just the center.  You can see this technique in the video here.  

This next card was a make & take at my New Catalog Launch party a few weeks ago.  I wanted to have a cute but easy card they could make featuring our new In Colors.  

They were able to stamp the flowers easily and perfectly with the Stamparatus. You can see how it's done in the video below.  

One of my favorite thing about this bundle is how versatile the greetings are; so many possibilites! 

Measurements:

  • Card base 5 1/2" X 8 1/2" scored at 2 1/8" & 4 1/4" 
  • White layers are 3 3/4" X 5"
  • Starry Sky is 3 7/8" X 5 1/8" 

And here's the video; click on the photo below to watch these two cards and one other too.

  • Double Flap fold with Branching Out with video & free project sheet


    I shared this card on last week’s Live:

    It features the new Branching Out bundle from the 2025 Holiday catalog from Stampin’ Up! See the bundle here.

    My colors include Early Espresso with Old Olive, Pecan Pie & White.

    It opens with two flaps; one on the right opens first. Then the left does too. As you can see I textured the Olive layer with the Birch Wood 3D embossing folder. The notched frame dies are included in the Branching Out bundle.

    The designer paper on the left is the Need for Tweed seen here.

    I created a free project sheet for this card. Click on the following link to print or download it. Branching Out Double flap card

  • Autumn Garland Kit


    I love this autumn garland kit!  I made it for my open house display and am in love! 

    I’ll show my own photos soon but wanted to share the video for it here.  It took me about 1 hour and 15 minutes to make and it’s huge & gorgeous!  I had many extra leaves left. The copper leaves and acorns add beautiful accents.  

    It comes with everything you need but hot glue. 

    You can see it online here.

  • Holiday Catalog Open House displays!


    Saturday I held my new catalog launch party & open house.  I had a wonderful turnout!  Best thing was how much they loved the new products I displayed.  Here are some photos of my projects and swap cards:

    These first few photos show the autumn themed products including the Gathering Together suite and the Autumn Toile sweet. 

    Next is the beautiful Lights of Aurora, the Fluffy Squirrel and Amber Autumn projects: 

    This next photo shows the display in my studio wall.  I always have multiple packs of designer papers hanging on the wall or on my magnet boards.  

    Next up are a few displays with Holiday themed products: 

    I loved playing with the new Joyful Days Memory & More cards. Such pretty pine themed cards!  

    I hope you enjoyed seeing some of my new Holiday displays.  I love holding these open houses because I get to see customers & friends I don’t see regularly.  And I get to cook for them too, which I totally enjoy!
