Wouldn’t you love to have some Panda Friends alternate craft projects to make so you can go beyond the basics?! The Stampin’ Up! The Panda Friends kit has so much potential, and even more so when you add a few extra cardstock colors and some adorable treat boxes! <br><br></br>

Let me show you the 4 cards I made, along with coordinating treat boxes that were perfect for the cookies and card class that I held. <br><br></br>

It was an instant connection when I first came across the gingerbread image within the Stampin’ Up! Sending Cheer Dies. The moment I spotted that gingerbread image, I knew I wanted to transform it into a delightful hula girl card. I think I’ll be making a lot of Gingerbread Hula Girl cards this Christmas!<br></br>

On October 21, 2023 we hosted an in-person Spirit of Giving stamp camp after a considerable hiatus. It was so refreshing to be back in person and contributing to a wonderful cause—the Make Lemonade Project which is a local charitable organization. Supporting this great cause was our primary mission for this stamp camp. We also created some lovely holiday projects with items from the Beary Cute suite. <br></br>

How cool would it be to learn how to make a mini origami star fold card? This card even fits in our standard medium-sized envelope! <br><br></br>

I got together with my friend and teammate demonstrator, Zeny Lucey, the other day. Zenny taught me the MOST AMAZING CARD—the Origami star fold card!! It was a card made out of 12 x 12 card stock and shaped like a star! At first, I thought it looked like a card that would be out of my comfort zone to create however, with a few simple instructions, I made my first star fold card and it made me so happy!

I think you’re going to really enjoy making this Faux Side Step Card! This card is in the family of ‘fun fold cards’ and even though the card may look hard to make it’s actually very easy. <br><br></br>

During a recent visit to Hawaii, demonstrator Lynsay Mahon blessed me with this really cute faux side step card—the card with the ship shown in the post. <br><br></br>

I was anxious to make this fun fold since Lynsay said it was simple to create. I wanted my card to be full of spring colors so I chose the Stampin’ Up! Cottage Rose stamp set and various colors of Stampin’ Blends (alcohol markers) to make a beautiful spring floral scene. <br><br></br>

Check out the video tutorial and the three card samples I have to share with you. I can’t wait to read your thoughts about this card and what stamps or dies you plan to use for your card!

Don’t miss the video where I show you how I took the small leaf image and reversed the stamp on the block so it would create a solid heart-shaped flower.
