I am sharing a few more swaps from the wonderful members of Kim’s Paper Krafters.

Enjoy!

One of the really fun aspects of creating and stamping is sharing creations and ideas with others. At our recent team meeting of Kim’s Paper Krafters, we held a team swap for those who wanted to participate. I’m sharing four of the cards today and will share the others in a couple of days.

Enjoy!

One of my favorite aspects of Stampin’ Up! products is that they can be used to make a variety of fun and fresh projects. Here, I pulled together a combination of products to create gifts for my team members.

I started with a small notebook I found at Target (three little notebooks for $1). I covered them with different designs from the Floral Boutique Designer Series Paper. I trimmed the notebook edge with a strip of the coordinating Floral Boutique Washi Tape. I used the Layered Letters Alphabet to create a monogram for each of my team members and affixed it to the front of the notebook.

I then packaged it with coordinating Stampin’ Up! products. I cut a 6 x 6 matching piece of DSP and guided it into the 6 x 8 cellophane bags. I created a tag using the Perfectly Wrapped stamp set — embossing the sentiment in gold. A Gold Binder Clip holds the tag and Gold Sequins add a touch of elegance. Inside, I included a Project Life Journaling Pen.

These small fun gifts are just a small perk of being a part of my team, Kim’s Paper Krafters. Interested?

See the stamp set above? It will be included in the August Paper Pumpkin kit. What’s Paper Pumpkin? It’s a monthly kit delivered to your mailbox each month. The fun red box includes everything you need to create that month’s project. Usually, the kit is a surprise, but this month, Stampin’ Up! offered a sneak peek. Not only is the stamp set revealed, but we know it’s going to be a set of greeting cards.

Today is the first day you can order Thoughtful Branches, a new versatile and fun stamp set with coordinating dies from Stampin’ Up! This particular card features an Elegant Eggplant hydrangea but you can also create a variety of trees and flowers. The sentiments are fabulous! I CASEd this card from several samples I’ve seen online. It features two layers of the hydrangea. the bottom flowers are die cut from Elegant Eggplant card stock. For the top layer, I stamped Elegant Eggplant ink onto Perfect Plum card stock. A swipe of Wink of Stella gives it a great shine. I also love the Elegant Eggplant Baker’s Twine.
