Daisy Lane It's Time to Shine

Hello and welcome to my blog; today I am going to be sharing with you a card that uses a new stamp set from the 2019-2020 Stampin' Up! Annual Catalog (which goes live on June 4th at 12 pm MT Time).  This is also the stamp set that I picked to use for my Online Class this month.  I am using the New Daisy Lane Stamp Set.  This is a fun set and coordinates with the Daisy Delight Stamp Set that's in the current catalog as well as the large daisy punch.  When this set goes live it will also have a new matching punch (Medium Daisy Punch) as part of a cost saving bundle.  Here's a look at my card.

I picked the colors for my card today from the Perennial Essence Designer Series Paper.  This pack of designer series paper is very artistic and the designer actually studied Monet Paintings and then hand painted the designs where they where photographed and then turned into this lovely paper you see today.  Just a little fun fact for you.  Any way back to the card.  I stamped the large Daisy (twice) from the set and used my large daisy punch to cut that out.  I added the designer series paper to a piece of Blackberry Bliss cardstock cut at 4 1/8 x 5 3/8 and then attached that to the card base.  Oh I forgot to mention my sentiment was stamped directly on the lovely designer series paper in Blackberry Bliss ink.  I thought it was such a wonderful mix of sentiments for a friend to get in the mail. I added some punch out sprigs (using the sprig punch returning to the new catalog) in Daffodil Delight & Blackberry Bliss.  I popped the daisy up on a stampin' dimensional and that was pretty much my card.  The card base is a piece of Flirty Flamingo cut to portrait size (in the us that's 4 1/4 x 11 scored at 5 1/2).  

I love that this stamp set coordinates with both stamp sets and punches we already have in the catalog.  That makes it not only do double duty but it gives us way more options to pick from without a lot of extra cost.  This set is my Featured product this week so you will be seeing a lot more examples of this stamp set.  Plus if you sign up for my Daisy Lane Online Class you will have seven more card ideas to go along with the ones I share this week.  Deadline to sign up for the class is the 4th.  

To tie in the envelope I used a strip of the matching paper and attached it to the front.  I still have room to write the address and the post office still has room to run it through their post machine without interference.  Which is good.  I love to make the envelope coordinate when I can by either adding a little of the matching designer series paper or by stamping.  You shouldn't be sending a naked envelope use those scrips of dsp you have that matches your card.  I also used a strip on the inside of the card as well to help tie it to the front.  

That's all for me this morning I have another post for you this afternoon so make sure you watch for that.  Remember to add the Daisy Lane Stamp Set onto your wish list, you are going to love it.  The new Annual Catalog goes lives tomorrow!  Wow it's been such a long awaited time.  I also wanted to mention I have kicked off my three month Sizzlin' Summer promotion so you can check out those details here and earn a chance to win a prize from the Holiday Catalog in September.  

Thanks for dropping by I planning to get back to the normal schedule soon. 

Happy Stampin'

May 2019 Paper Pumpkin Kit Hugs from Shelli

Hello and welcome to my blog; today I am going to share with you the projects from the May 2019 Paper Pumpkin Kit and give you a little sneak peek of the June 2019 Kit.  The May create was inspired and co designed by Stampin' Up!'s Co-Founder Shelli Gardner.  Shelli has a very classic style to her projects and she loves heat embossing so I was surprised that this kit didn't have a little embossing with it.  But everything else was so Shelli.  This was a super fun kit and was the first kit to be offered in the international market.  Which was very special for everyone.  I shared a few alternative projects for this kit yesterday for the A Paper Pumpkin Thing Blog Hop.  I will link that post here.  The blog hop yesterday was so fun and all the projects were wonderful you will differently want to check them out.  Here's a look at the cards from this month's kit as intended.

The May Kit focused on four note cards each with a different design.  You made three of each design.  I used some of mine to create my alternative cards in yesterday's post.  The May kit also came in a special box, which is so pretty.  I can also tell you that the kit coordinates with the Bird Ballard Suite in the upcoming Catalog.  Paper Pumpkin is such a great deal, you get everything in the box that you need for each project.  All the instructions on printed in the flyer on the inside.  You also get a exclusive stamp set, ink spot, and all the components for the cards.  Here's a look at what came in this month's kit.

That's a lot of product for such a small price point.  Starting in June the Price for a monthly kit will be $22.00 per kit with the monthly subscription.  You can also purchase Paper Pumpkin as a gift for someone with one of the Prepaid Subscriptions.  The Prepaid Subscriptions are as followed; 1 month $21.00, 3 months $63.00, 6 months $114.00 (you save $1 per kit), and 12 months $220 (you buy 11 and get the 12th month free with this option) you do have to pay the shipping costs & taxes with the Prepaid Subscriptions up front , where with the monthly subscription you are only paying taxes. 

June Kit Sneak Peek: 

The June kit makes it easy for you to scatter sunshine this summer—whenever, with whomever.  Not only do you get 16 fun-sized, beach-themed cards and envelopes, but you also are provided with an exclusive carrying case so you’ll always have your cards on hand to share wherever you go.  And don’t forget the exclusive stamp set and ink spot that completes every Paper Pumpkin kit!

If you would like to get the June Kit you have to sign up by June 10th.  And you will be all set to get this fun box of creativity in your mailbox each month.  Click here to sign up and join the fun.  

I hope that you have enjoyed this little look at the May kit, make sure you check out yesterday's post with the alternative projects.  If you want to join the fun once again make sure you sign up for the June Kit by June 10th, after the 10th you are signing up for the July Kit.  Thanks for dropping by today.
