Here are the components of the kit, including the consumables, stamps and ink spot.

I like to think about what will I do with this stamp set, once I make the kit up. So that is where I try to focus my alternate projects. Here is what I came up with for this month:

I love the fun elements, the cup reminds me so much of camping.  I could see these used on a camping, or hiking scrapbook page.

IDEAS Blog Hop: Fast & Fabulous Little Monkey

Hello friends!! It is time for the May IDEAS Blog Hop! The IDEAS team is made up of Stampin' Up!  demonstrator from all over the globe. We pick our monthly theme, then create based on it. Our theme this month is "Fast & Fabulous".  I love simple and quick cards, so this is right up my alley!! I used a 6" x 6" one sheet wonder to make 4 fast cards. They are all similar, so don't take a lot of thought, but different enough that the recipients wouldn't think they were massed produced.

Here is a collage with snapshots showing  a peek at the different projects: 

The "Fast & Fabulous" Tutorial Bundle has projects from 11 global demonstrators. It  includes complete instructions for over 30 projects. More than 50 pages of instructions have color photos, imperial and metric dimensions, and complete supply lists. 

My actual tutorial designs are secret and exclusively shared in the tutorial.  But, here is a bonus project, not included in the bundle. It uses the same stamp set and Designer Series Paper, but is a completely different design: 

I think easel cards are fast and they truly are fabulous. It is just a different twist to a regular sized card, but definitely gives it a little WOW factor! 

Would you like a copy of the tutorial bundle to use personally or even use the projects in your classes? I have several ways you can obtain our IDEAS tutorial bundles:

1. Place a $35 order with my online host code, KDSTP9KS. Click here.

2. It is free for all of my team members, join here.

ICS Blog Hop: Spring has Sprung....Garden Birdhouses

 

Hello friends! Thanks for joining the Inspire Create Share team for our "Spring is Sprung" Blog Hop! I know some areas are still experiencing cold weather, and some are still getting snow, but I hope you feel a little more "springy" after you hop through with us. 

Here is my card using Garden Birdhouses. Birds in my yard, flitting around and singing, always make me think of spring. 

Unfortunately, Garden Birdhouses is retiring, so grab yours before it is gone!

I love the textured shimmer paper. It is slightly corrugated, and it has just the right amount of shimmer to it too! It comes in 3 colors and the best part is, it iscarrying over into the new 2023-2024 Stampin' Up! catalog, so grab a pack now and start creating with it!

Let's hop over to Janey's blog and see what she has created to share with us.
