Here is a great option for boredom busting and sending some love through the mail to those we aren’t able to be with while we are practicing social distancing over the coming weeks.
For April, Stampin’ Up! has created a fun, family appreciation themed card kit that would make it easy for you to share your hearts with those you love most: mom, dad, daughter, son, sister, and brother.

This little background stamp (151612/152201) was one that I missed until a new friend at the table pointed it out to me – when I took a closer look at it I couldn’t believe I’d missed it.
I could see why she was excited since it looks great just as is, but when color is added to it. Wow!
Here are a few cards created with simple stamping using this bouquet of flowers. This first one is simply striking with it’s Pacific Point and Basic Gray combination and it shimmers since the large rose has been colored with the Wink of Stella Glitter Brush (141897).
If you don’t recognize it the bit of texture on the bottom was added with the Parisian Flourish 3D Embossing Folder (151474) and that sentiment has been punch out using the Label Me Lovely Punch (151296) and matted on vellum.
This next card is done in Lovely Lipstick – simple but striking
And this final card – the stamped image is Embossed with Black Embossing Powder on our Shimmer White Card stock. Matted in Grapefruit Grove and Basic Gray – a quick swish of the Aqua Painted to add the Grapefruit Grove around the focal point and your done!
The Shimmery White Card stock (101910) adds just the right amount of shimmer and is wonderful for water coloring since it is a bit heavier. If you haven’t given our Shimmer White Card stock you really should give it a try – you’ll love it!

This stamp set is filled with beautiful sketched images, sentiments using a lovely font and is perfect for your favorite coloring technique.
Today I wanted to share this lovely card I received that uses our Stampin’ Blends to color these lovely images.
Done using the Calypso Coral, Soft Suede, Crumb Cake and Petal Pink Stampin’ Blends. Texture was added with our Basket Weave and Texture 3D Embossing Folders. (Speaking of our wonderful 3D Embossing Folders – Did you know we have a special 3D Embossing Plate that you can use to make sandwich for embossing quick and easy when using your Big Shot or other Die machine? We also have replacement cutting plates available too.)
And here is another card I’ve shared with you earlier using this set. This time using bold Rich Razzleberry and Cherry Cobbler Stampin’ Blends inspired by the Poppies Designer Series Paper.
The options are endless since you can use the coloring method of your choice and each coloring tool you choose will give you a different feel which makes it a lot of fun to create with!
Are you at home? With the request that we stay in place, you’ll need a way to fight the boredom . Why not think about stamping? And of course staying connected with our family and friends by sending a card? Just because we have to be physically apart doesn’t mean we can’t reach out to others through different methods, like a phone call or sending a card. Not only will you brighten someones day, you’ll feel better too!
And of course I have class options that will allow you to still create while at home – check out my kit to go options found on my Calendar of Events or contact me today to learn more. Or my new Virtual Class option that I shared with you last week.

This Suite is one of my favorite in the Mini Catalog and here are some more cards made using the products from this suite for you today.
This first card is a fancy fold, called the 4 fold card.
When opened it’s like a little book – so much fun. Check out the beach chair from the Seasonal Layers Dies. Soooo cute!
And here is a fun card done with the In the Tropic Dies.
Can you see the texture on the pineapple? The Tropical Oasis Designer Series Paper was used to cut out the die, giving it a lot of texture – so simple, but it packs a wow factor.
And this last card is perfect for a retirement, thank you, or special trip
Do you like these cards? How can this bright, cheerful suite of products not make you smile with their tropical feel? If you love this suite as much as I do, why not take a class with me that includes the Timeless Tropical Bundle and more?
Tropical Oasis product based Class for April – when you sign up for this class you’ll not only get to make some fun projects, you’ll receive the Tropical Oasis stamp set, dies and trinkets all for one low price. Basically it is a free Class AND when you reserve your spot before March 25th for this class you’ll get to choose a Sale-a-bration product too! You can find all the details on my Calendar of Events HERE. You’ll want to save your spot today either for my LIVE event (that will be held at a later date) or for the Kit to Go.

So what do you think? Want to join me for class? Click HERE for my Calendar of Events and more information on my Saturday, April 11th Class now.
Please Note: With the quickly changing information we have been receiving I wanted to let you know that I will not be holding my LIVE events through the end of April. This is a step I didn’t take lightly, but one I feel is important to help do my part to protect not only my family, but also my stamping friends too.
That being said, as we all practice sheltering in place in different ways across the US, I know that stamping can be a positive way to reduce stress during this stressful time. So I’ll be making some modifications to my classes and offering them in a different way! While I have been offering Kits to Go with my product based classes already, I’ll be introducing my Virtual Class option too. I’ve already sent this out in my Newsletter today, but I’ll be sharing more information with you soon here on my blog.

Love the water or know someone who does? Then the By the Dock Bundle (153817) found in the Mini Catalog might be right up your alley since it is filled with some great images that will bring to life the lazy days of summer and time on the water.
The font used for the sentiments is lovely too and what a great option for the guys in our lives. I think it is great that this Mini Catalog has some wonderful masculine set choices for us.
The Layered with Kindness stamp set coordinates with 2 great new punches that are wonderful for all kinds of projects making it a great choice. Check out this first card where the set has been teamed up with the Best Dressed Designer Series Paper (151319) to crate a soft and sweet birthday card.
and how about this card that uses the lovely sentiment as it’s focal point?
Same set, same punches, but such a different feel to the cards, don’t you think?
Today I’m highlight a project using the Special Someone stamp set (151643) which contains some wonderful little animal images along with some all occasion sentiments.
And great news through the end of March (or while supplies last) you can order a coordinating die set for this stamp set!
The Special Day Dies (153587) are part of the Coordination Product Release and who doesn’t love being able to cut things out easily?
Here is a fun card using the Special Someone stamp set
And here are a couple more for you. Aren’t these little animals adorable?
