Be sure to visit all of the participating stampers to gain a host of crafting inspiration. Look for a list of hoppers at the end of this post.
Trucking Along Easter Card
For today’s post, I created a fun Easter card using Stampin’ Up!’s Trucking Along Bundle. This super fun bundle with the truck image is most often associated with Christmas and the holidays. But I wanted to extend the use of this truck. It’s now carrying Easter eggs!
The Trucking Along Bundle is part of Stampin’ Up’s Online Exclusive offerings. You won’t find these products in catalogs, just online. Click here to check them all out. There are some really fun products you’ll want to get your hands on.
Here are some details about this card:
Balmy Blue card stock base measuring 8 1/2 x 5 1/4 scored and folded at 4 1/4
Lighter Than Air Designer Series Paper measuring 5 1/4 x 4
Balmy Blue panel measuring 4 1/4 x 3

Welcome to Team Stamp It’s February Blog Hop! Thanks for joining us. This month, we feature handmade greeting cards and projects with a spring theme. Be sure to visit all of the blogs on the hop and leave a comment. You could win a Confetti Birthday Card Kit.
Everyday Details for Spring
My post today showcases Stampin’ Up!’s Everyday Details stamp set. Find it in Stampin’ Up!’s January-April 2024 Mini Catalog. To me, the bird nest symbolizes spring. I paired it with a spring sentiment found in the February Paper Pumpkin kit. (Another spring sentiment can be found in the Excellent Eggs stamp set, also available in the spring mini catalog.)
Here are the measurements for the card:
Lost Lagoon card stock base measuring 8 1/2 x 5 1/2, scored and folded at 4 1/4
Poetic Expressions Designer Series Paper measuring 5 1/2 x 3 and 3 x 4 1/4
Basic White die cut circle with largest Everyday Details Dies
Stamped nest in Memento Black ink and colored with Boho Blue, Lost Lagoon, and Crumb Cake Stampin’ Blends Combo Packs
Springtime Greetings sentiment from February 2024 Paper Pumpkin stamped in Lost Lagoon ink
Lost Lagoon 1/4″ Bordered Ribbon
Lost Lagoon gems from the Tinsel Gems Three-Pack
Here’s another card design created with the same elements, but with a different layout. In the card below, I use the Perennial Postage Dies in addition to the other card making products listed above.
