Beauty Abounds

Hello stampers!

When the new catalog was first released to demonstrators, I was pleasantly surprised to see the Beauty Abounds stamp set is carrying over for another year.  I really like the images in this set.  For today's card, I paired it with a sentiment from Thanks For The Laughs (which is retiring), and the brand new Ornate Garden patterned paper.

Last A Lifetime

Hello stampers!

There is a very elegant bundle in the January-June Mini catalog that may be overlooked.  The Last A Lifetime bundle consists the Last A Lifetime stamp set with sentiments in a beautiful script font and the coordinating Lasting Elegance Dies. 




I made the above card for a recent customer order for a wedding card.  It has a simple elegance, and the black and white color combo adds to the overall effect.

Even though this stamp set and dies are in the new catalog, through June 2, the bundle is available at a 10% discount!  Woohoo!

Mountain Air

Hello stampers!

Today we're revisiting a stamp set that is carrying over to the new Stampin' Up! 2020-2021 annual catalog.  Mountain Air is the stamp set.  It's bundled with the Majestic Mountain dies, but I've used the stamp set alone for my card.  The sentiment is from Rustic Retreat, another stamp set carrying over from the current catalogs.

Honey Bee Class By Mail

Hi everyone!

I think I have a class by mail for you this month that you will really like!  




Do you recognize that Golden Honey Specialty Designer Series Paper?  It's been sold out for months, but I have a couple extra packs and I designed this class around it to get that paper out into your hands!  

You will receive all the paper (cut to size) and die cuts to make two each of these four cards, including envelopes, plus a pdf with all the measurements and instructions!   That's 8 cards total!   This class by mail is perfect for all stampers - new and experienced!

The cost is $15.00 + $3.00 for shipping.  Local folks, I'll provide no contact porch pickup if you want to pick up your kit and save the $3.00 shipping.

I used the Honey Bee stamp set (#151527) to complete my cards.  That stamp set is available as a Last Chance Product.  Alternately, you can use any stamp set in your collection to complete the cards. 

To complete the cards as shown the only additional products you need are a black stamp pad, Crumb Cake stamp pad, yellow marker, and adhesive.

10 kits are available, so order soon!  Reserve your kit by sending your fee to paypal.me/MelanieCoverston

I know you're going to love this kit!

Beautiful Friendship Birthday and a free project sheet

Hi there stampers!

Beautiful Friendship was on my list of stamp sets to remind you will be in the new catalog that goes live on June 3.  I love the beautiful images in this stamp set.  

For today's card, I've stepped a little out of my comfort zone and used really bold colors for the flowers.  And, I have a free project sheet for you so you can make it at home!



I used the Birch background stamp to create the background.  Click here for the project sheet with all the details.  Note, the Stamparatus is very helpful for this card for re-stamping images to create the deep saturated colors.

Mom

Hello friends!

I sense that Mother's Day cards are bigger than this year than they have been for many years.  With so many of us isolated from so many that are important to us, it's important to connect however we can.  Today's card uses the same layout as the last card I shared.  Since this layout uses paper scraps, the exact measurements can vary from card to card based on the size of your available scraps.



And it's a no-stamping card!
