Using only the Heirloom Arrangements kit stamp set, the included Pecan Pie Stampin’ Spot, and leftover pieces from the card kit, I created five more cards by only adding five notecards and corresponding envelopes.
You can see how I used the grid stamp to add some interest to the backgrounds.
I hope these inspire you! I can't wait to see what YOU make.
The Heirloom Arrangements card kit makes eight beautiful cards! I made all eight cards mostly following the directions, and in part two I will show you what I did with the leftover pieces. NOTE: You do NOT have to follow the directions unless you want to!
The kit comes with beautiful botanical die cut pieces, frames, and tags to mix and match.
Pecan Pie Stampin' Spot (included) coordinates perfectly for a vintage look.
I love how everything you need is contained in the small box that the kits come in!
Not pictured, but I stamped the moth inside each card and added it to the envelopes also. Don't forget to decorate your envelopes!

NO FOOLING! One thing that I love about Stampin' Up! is that they provide products for all levels of crafters and/or crafting experiences! The So Much to Celebrate card kit is so easy to put together that you don’t have to have any experience whatsoever to create nine beautiful cards (three each of three designs). I would definitely consider myself a very experienced paper crafter, and I still enjoy how fast and easy these kits come together to create lovely cards.
Who needs congrats/best wishes cards this season? I love the soft colors and gold foil accents.
The preprinted sentiments are available in four languages, so get fancy and use one of them!
Thank you to all of my friends/customers/team members who have supported me over the years and especially in this last year as I've transitioned to Stampin’ Up!. I’m excited to announce that thanks to your help, I’ve promoted to Silver demonstrator status!
This beautiful pin arrived in the mail today, and I will be wearing it with pride.
This card design is a favorite of mine, and I had fun making these as part of my swaps for Stampin' Up!'s recent annual convention, OnStage, in Raleigh. I used the Unbounded Beauty DSP with Peach Pie, Shy Shamrock, and Petunia Pop stampin' pads. I used the Nested Essentials dies for the focal sentiment and fussy cut the flower and leaves. A few In Color shimmer gems finished off the card.
Because of the supplies I had on hand, I ended up making two versions of this Floral Delight thinking of you card. Both are top-fold cards using the Sentimental Park stamp set and dies. The first one uses Old Olive and Daffodil Delight.
Which card do you prefer?
These two cards came together, literally from scraps from my messy desk! I ended up cutting the Beautiful Butterflies hybrid 3-D embossing folder panel into four three-quarter inch strips that I mounted on Beautiful Bokeh DSP. I had fun with the Beautiful Butterflies bundle (stamps and die cuts) for both cards. I added some Itty Bitty Bokeh Mix to the card front.
