No Matter the Weather Kit

I’ve been crafting with Kits Collection kits this week. These All-inclusive kits come with everything you need to sit down and start creating immediately. There are many kits to choose from for many different occasions and styles. I love that you can put the Kits together just as they are or you can add other Stampin’ Up!® products to make them even more versatile.

My projects today were created with the No Matter the Weather Kit and Flowering Rain Boots Bundle. Confession time – I have had this kit for some time. I made one card to use as soon as I received it, then set it aside. I’m kind of glad I did because I had lots of fun incorporating the Flowering Rain Boots bundle with the kit.

I started with punching out all the pieces of the No Matter the Weather kit and stamping & die cutting images from the Flowering Rain Boots bundle. As I was creating the cards I add in a few other great products to give them my own special touch. I used the Messages die for a few of the sentiments, the Cloud punch and from Sale-A-Bration the Sunshine & Rainbows DSP.

For these cards I snipped the boots images that was included in the kit so that I could add in the pretty flowers.

The next few cards i created similarly to the cards as they are in the kit. I changed the label or stamped the sentiment directly onto the card.

The next few cards feature the Flowering Rain Boots Bundle as the main element while still using some of the kit elements.

I hope you enjoyed my cards and are inspired to create with the Kits Collection. All the Stampin’ Up! supplies used to make my card are available in my online store. Simply click any of the product photos below!

Sentimental Swirls For You

I have another card for you that showcases my favorite stamp set in the Jan-June 2022 Mini Catalog, Sentimental Swirls. As well as my favorite DSP in the Friendly Hello Bundle, from the Sale-a-Bration brochure. I created this card for the Luv 2 Stamp Group Wednesday Weekly Challenge.

The layout of my card is a great way to use multiple patterns of DSP. I used Multipurpose Liquid Glue to attach them to a Basic White Thick Cardstock cardbase.

The flower and leaves in the Sentimental Swirls stamp set are 2 step stamps and coordinate with the Flowers & Leaves Punch. I stamped the outline of the flowers in Petal Pink, Pool Party and Fresh Freesia, The leaf outline is stamped in Granny Apple Green. Using the solid image of the flowers and leaves I stamped the ink off on my grid paper first before stamping the flowers and leaves. I love how they turned out.

I die cut the Basic White label using the Sweet So Sweetly dies. The For You sentiment is stamped in Tuxedo Black Memento Ink. I added it to my card with Stampin’ Dimensionals, and glue dots to add the flowers and leaves. I brushed the flowers with a Wink of Stella and added a few Elegant Faceted Gems. Leave me a comment below to let me know if you like my card today.

I’d love to be your Stampin’ Up!® Demonstrator. All the Stampin’ Up! supplies used to make my card are available in my online store. Simply click any of the product photos below!

January 2022 Customer Thank You Cards – Sentimental Swirls

Thank you for joining us for our Stampin’ Up!® Demonstrator Training Program Monthly Blog Hop! We are so happy that you could join us today for this blog hop for ideas and creative inspiration. We are a group of Stampin’ Up!® Demonstrators from around the world that are taking part in training that is helping us to build a successful Stampin’ Up!® business and reach some goals we have set. We really appreciate your support.

You may be starting here or have come from another blog – either way you can find the link list at the bottom of this post so that you can see every blog post and idea today.

My Thank You Cards this month feature 2 new products, The Sentimental Swirls Stamp Set available in the Jan- June 2022 Mini Catalog and the Friendly Hello Designer Series Paper from the Friendly Hello Bundle available in the Jan-Feb Sale-a-Bration Brochure.

Using the Friendly Hello Designer Series Paper, I cut 2 Patterns for the card front. Stacking them together to cut them at the same time, I put them on my Paper Trimmer to cut them diagonally.

Using the largest card from the Assorted Memories & More Cards & Envelopes pack as my card base, I attached 2 different patterns of the DSP I cut with Multipurpose Liquid Glue. I love the look of the 2 patterns together on the card front. Cutting them together made it very easy to match them up so they fit together nicely when I put them on the card front.

I die cut the label in Basic White with the Tasteful Labels dies. Using my new favorite stamp set from the Mini Catalog, Sentimental Swirls, I stamped the Thank You in Fresh Freesia. The butterflies are stamped in Granny Apple Green and Petal Pink on the label. Then I decided to stamp them again and fussy cut them out to add with Stampin’ Dimensionals.

I used the Fresh Freesia Open Weave Ribbon to add to the back of the sentiment with some Stampin’ Seal adhesive. Then I used the Foam Adhesive Sheets, cut a square and put that over top of the ribbon. This will keep the label from sagging and the ribbon in place. If you haven’t tried the Foam Adhesive sheets yet, give them a try. They are very easy to cut to whatever shape you need, and give a little extra support to whatever elements you use them with.

After attaching the label to the card, I added the extra butterflies that I fussy cut. I like the extra dimension of adding them with Stampin’ Dimensionals. I couldn’t resist adding a Wink of Stella to the to make them shimmer. For the finishing touch, I added a few of the Opal Rounds to the cards.
