You might have heard the Stampin’ Up! packaging for the stamps and dies are changing. I have just received my first order with the new packaging so I thought I would put together a review so you can see it.
The video is on my Youtube now or you can see it below.
I would love to hear your thoughts and especially how you will store your stamps and dies now.
On a side note: If you prefer the clear DVD cases for your stamps you are able to purchase additional cases to convert your stamps. Or you can purchase additional clear envelopes to store them that way (starting in November).
Adding this Thumb Image below so you can PIN it to come back to.

I’m making up some little Thank You Cards to send out to my lovely customers when they order. For the cards recently I have been using some “left-over” bits.
This one I was playing around with the Sunflower Embossing Folder. I fussy cut one of the sunflowers. I was going to add it to a previous card and then it didn’t work out. But not to waste it. I add it to this little Mini Card.
I had a small scrap piece of the Florals in Bloom Paper and trimmed it down for the front of the card. The sentiment from Simply Said set was stamped on some Lemon Lolly card.
I will share some more of these Mini Thank You cards very soon.

I have been meaning to show some more cards with the Sunflower Embossing Folder. I shared a number of the cards in my recent video but it might be good to see them close up.
This one is more a distressed looking card.
I embossed with the folder on a piece of the “wood” look pattern from the Nests of Winter Paper pack. You could use any similar print.
Then you can add your colouring. This one I used the Ink Pads and Blending Brushes then assembled it on the card base with a piece of Old Olive card off-set a little. I think curling up the edges of the embossed piece might have given a more distressed look.
I have had so much fun with this Embossing Folder. I hope to get back to you again soon with some more card projects soon.
If you missed it you can see the video of 5+ Ways with the Sunflower Embossing Folder -> HERE.

Sunday Suites with the Traditions of Christmas Suite. If you love the classic red and greens for Christmas and the Holly and Poinsettias then you will love this.
The Traditions of Christmas SuiteCollection includes:
Traditional Labels Bundle
Christmas Greenery Bundle
Traditions of Christmas Specialty Designer Series Paper
Real Red 1/2″ (1.3cm) Shiny Ribbon 10 Yards (9.1m)
Traditional Sparkling Sequins 240 adhesive-backed pieces 60mm each of 4 colours. 4mm, 5mm, 6mm.
The Traditional Labels Bundle contains individual sentiments that can be used together or by themselves and not just for Christmas so it is a versatile one. But I do like the Dies set with this one with the different shape dies.
The Christmas Greenery Bundle contains the poinsettia and greenery stamps and has coordinating dies to diecut the images plus a number of different shaped leaves to create Christmas floral arrangements.
The Traditions of Christmas Specialty Paper has touches of Gold through it which is really striking. It has the classic Christmas flowers and leaves like the Poinsettias and Holly. The paper is 12″x12″ with colours of Cherry Cobbler, gold, Old Olive, Pool Party, Real Red, Secret Sea.
The Traditional Wreath Embossing Folder. Note this Embossing Folder is very large. It is 6″ x 6-1/4″ (15.2 x 15.9 cm). So bigger than your standard Card Size you would just have a touch of texture on it. It is pretty though with lots of detail.
The Real Red Shiny Ribbon is very shimmery which really adds a delicate, soft touch to cards and gift packaging. In addition there is the Traditional Sparkling Sequins.
Here are some samples with these gorgeous products.
Are you a Classic Red and Green with the traditional flowers and foliage. This will be for you. See it more -> HERE.

I couldn’t resist. I recently got the Festive Friends Bundle. They are cute characters in this one BUT for our Hot Christmas time in Australia with many heading to the beach I couldn’t help but make the snowman a Sandman.
I remember so many times at the beach when I was young creating big mounds of sand and decorating it with seaweed for hair and added sticks and shells. And at Christmas time you did add a Santa Hat. Such fun memories.
So the Festive Friends snowman became a Sandman. Not too many shells or seaweed on this one but still all dressed up for Christmas.
The Sandman was coloured with the Stampin’ Blends and the shells were from the Notes and Totes Dies set. The paper worked well with it. This was from the Peaceful Garden Designer Series Paper pack.
I had a lot of fun colouring this character. I have created with the other characters too so I will get back to you soon on those ones.
This is the Festive Friends Bundle. It has some fun little additional elements too with the trees and snowflakes and a tag shape. See it more -> HERE.

I have been playing a lot with the Sunflower 3D Embossing Folder and experimenting with the Two-Tone cardstock. So I put them together.
Here are 2 cards that I created. Some nice sunshine-y yellow to brighten your day.
For this one below I cut a piece of the Daffodil Delight Two-Tone Cardstock just slightly smaller than the front of the card. Then I cut the piece in half and flipped one half. I put the pieces together in the Embossing Folder and embossed them. I lightly sanded the embossed cardstock to reveal the white. I adhered them to the front of a white Card Base and added a simple sentiment.
We made this card recently in my local class playing with the Two-Tone Cardstock. If you are a Wollongong local I would love you to join in our classes each month. Contact me to find out more about them.
On this one below I cut a piece of the Two-Tone Daffodil Delight and embossed that. I lightly sanded the piece and added it to a white card Base. The sentiment heat embossed in white on black card and the Granny Apple Green leaf gives a ‘POP’ to the card.
You could do this in many other colours too. Hope you get to try it out.
Happy Crafting,
Jenny
