4th of July Birthday

Hello Everyone!

I'm eager to share a recent project that I put together for a friend of mine who's birthday is on the 4th of July. I always have fun putting her little gift together!


I C.A.S.E.'d (copy and share everything) Erica Cerwin for both the cupcake box and the card. They are a similar version of what she has created. You may take a look at her creations here.

Most of the products that I used to make the projects are using current products but there are a couple that are not current. Below is a list of products I used:

In Color & Celebrate Sunflowers To-Go Class

Welcome to today's post!

I'm super excited to bring to you my first To-Go class that features the new 2020-2022 In Colors and the new Celebrate Sunflowers Bundle from the 2020-2021 Annual Stampin' UP! Catalog.


The class kit will include ten (10) project kits for 5 cards and 5 3-D boxes plus the full color step-by-step PDF tutorial. 

Each class kit will arrive at your front door sorted and organized by project. I will do all the scoring, punching and cutting for you (other than what needs to be done with your new Sunflowers Dies). This kit is a great option so you can put these together at your own pace!

You will need to be sure you have Memento Black ink, a Black Stampin' Write marker, a Die Cutting machine (such as the BigShot), and the following Adhesives: Stampin’ Seal (the new replacement for SNAIL), Tombow, Stampin’ Dimensionals and Mini Glue Dots.

This To-Go class has three (3) options you can choose from:

Option 1- $79

This is the full kit and includes:

  • Celebrate Sunflowers Stamps and Die Bundle ($51.25 value) 
  • 1 pack of 2020-2022 In Color 6"x6" designer series paper
  • 1 pack of 2020-2022 In Color enamel dots
  • 10 Make and Take packets 
  • Full step-by-step PDF of instructions

Email me to register for Option #1


Option 2- $35

This is the option for those who already own the Celebrate Sunflowers stamp set and coordinating Sunflowers dies. You will need them to complete your projects so only choose this option if you already own the bundle.  

  • 1 pack of 2020-2022 In Color 6"x6" designer series paper
  • 1 pack of 2020-2022 In Color enamel dots
  • 10 Make and Take packets
  • Full step-by-step PDF of instructions


Option 3- $15

PDF only - This is the option if you want to cut your own card stock and already own the products. If you purchase the PDF Only option, e-mail me and I will provide you with a PayPal invoice. Once the invoice is paid, I will send you the PDF file to your e-mail account.


Please Note:

  • All class kits and included products will be ordered and prepared together after the deadline. This is a pre-order only and per SU! policy, I do not have product on hand ready to ship. Because of this, it takes about 1 week after the deadline for me to order, cut, prepare and ship all the class kits.  Class Kits can only be mailed within the United States. If you live outside of the US, you may still purchase the PDF. 

Registration is NOW open and will close on June 26th

Expected shipping date of all kits is on July 10th.

2020-2021 Stampin' UP! Catalog is LIVE

Hello everyone!
I'm ecstatic to show you the brand new 2020-2021 Stampin' UP! Annual Catalog!!! Click on the image below to access the PDF version of the catalog.
Stampin' UP! continues to amaze me with their amazing products and beautiful samples!

World of Good
As a Stampin' UP! demonstrator, I had the opportunity to play with a few products, just like the World of Good suite from pages 24-26 of the catalog.

I made the card below using the Beautiful World stamp set as a thank you note for my supervisor. I simply love the overall theme of the Suite and the classy look to it!
If you look a little closer to the left side of page 25, you'll see where my inspiration came from.
You may not see it very well, but that 1/4" Early Espresso Faux Suede Trim/ribbon below the "Thank You" feels amazing and I love the finishing touch to the card.


Below is the inside of the card.

The link below is a list of supplies that I used for this card that you can add to your Online Order.

Celebrate Sunflowers
The Celebrate Sunflowers stamp set is a part of the "Flowers for Every Season" suite from page 10-13 of the new catalog. This is one of my favorite stamp sets in the catalog! It's so cheery and lovely altogether. Look at that Designer Paper!!!
Below is a gift card holder that I CASED from Erica Cerwin, which I found on Pinterest. I made this as a thank you gift for my son's 1st grade teacher.


I used the exact same measurements that she used except my theme is different.
  • Box bottom- 4 3/4" X 5" Bumblebee Cardstock, score the long side at 2 1/2"
  • 2 1/2" X 1 1/4" Whisper White Cardstock
  • 2 1/2" X 1 1/8" Bumblebee DSP
  • Box top- 5 1/4" X 3" Bumblebee Cardstock, score the short side at 1 1/2"
  • 5 1/8" X 1 3/8"  Whisper White Cardstock
  • 5" X 1 1/4"  Bumblebee DSP
  • Inside card holder- 3 1/4" X 4" Bumblebee Cardstock
  • 3 1/8" X 3 7/8" Whisper White Cardstock
I used all new Stampin' UP! products except for the "Pull Here" at the top the card. This is a stamp set by Honey Bee Stamps called One-of-a-kind. This stamp set is perfect for interactive cards like this one.

The link below is a list of supplies that I used for this card that you can add to your Online Order. Please note that I did use the Pigment Sprinkles which have retired.


Resources
I would like to share a resource with you that I created: The 2020-2021 Designer Series Paper Coordinating (DSP) Colors Sheet. I use this often when I'm planning a project that uses the DSP . Another thing I use it for is when I look for coordinating colors since it helps me visualize those colors together.
I recommend printing off this sheet on some good paper with a high print quality so you can view the colors as close to their actual color.

It’s a bundle bash! If you have been thinking about becoming a Stampin’ Up! demonstrator, now’s the perfect time to join.
