Wreath of Blooms Kit Class

Are you ready to get creative with the Wreath of Blooms Kit Class? This in person AND/OR to-go class features the Wreath of Blooms Kit, by Stampin’ Up!.

The Wreath of Blooms Kit is lovely in the original hanging wreath design. But, you will find that by adding additional die cut elements (included with the class) and framing it (included with the class), the end results are spectacular!

Wreath of Blooms Kit

The Wreath of Blooms Kit is included in the class, and we will be using it on 2 of the 4 class projects.

Because I always love to add more to my projects, I am including an assortment of die cut and punched cardstock that will enhance your framed art. All this hard work is already done for you…just assemble!

The Wreath of Blooms Framed Art

You will receive a new-in-package white wooden frame as part of this class, along with the Wreath of Blooms Kit and additional leaves and nature elements.

Also included are the following: Petal Pink Cardstock mat, White Cardstock mat, and DSP mat. The DSP mat will vary on selection, but any of these 3 designs are perfect for this framed art masterpiece.

Wreath of Blooms Gift Box

Besides the beautiful Wreath of Blooms Kit framed art, this class has more in store for you! You will also be making a delightful gift box.

The box assembly is easy (it even has a gift card holder in it!). You will use the “bow-like” flower from the Wreath of Blooms Kit for the topper on this box.

The cardstock, DSP (selection may vary) and die cut tag are ready for you to use. Stamp your own sentiment, adhere the elements, and get ready to gift this clever item!

Wreath of Blooms Kit Class Cards

While I love good projects, I am still a cardmaker at heart. So this class has 2 easy to make cards, perfect for beginners and lovely for advanced stampers, too! Once again, all the hard work is done for you. All you need to do is stamp your sentiments and assemble.

Hello Friend Card

The Hello Friend Card features a Calypso Coral Cardstock base. The designer series paper is doing all the fancy work for you!

Chose a sentiment stamp from your collection for this card. You will receive the ribbon, but embellishments and a White Cardstock Insert are not included.

Lots of Love Card

The Lots of Love Card features a Petal Pink Cardstock base. Your kit will contain a piece of Petal Pink Cardstock that is already embossed.

And the punched pieces are part of the kit too. Just add a stamped sentiment and your own embellishments. If desired, you may also add your own White Cardstock insert.

Courage & Faith Card Class

Courage & Faith Card Class

Courage & Faith Stamp Set By Stampin’ Up!

Welcome to your Courage & Faith Card Class! This week, I am using the Courage & Faith Stamp Set by Stampin’ Up!. This stamp set is new to the 2023-2024 Stampin’ Up! Annual Catalog. I will be sharing these wonderful cards and giving you how-to assemble tips during my live cardmaking class on Monday, July 31, at 8pm EST on The Maine Stamper FaceBook page.

Typically, I focus on a bundle for my Weekly Card Class From Maine. This week, I am using a stand alone stamp set, meaning it does not have a specific punch or dies that coordinate. Instead, I chose the Elegant Edge Tag Topper Punch to use with my stamps.

Want to see another card class featuring something unusual with items in the 2023-2024 Stampin’ Up! Annual Catalog? Click here.

Courage & Faith Stamp Set

The Courage & Faith Stamp Set are red rubber cling style, and contain 10 stamps. This amazing stamp set is inspired by Million Sales Achiever Natalie Travis. I love that the sentiments are scripture based. You will also use the leaves and spots stamps for an abundance of projects.

The Elegant Edge Tag Topper Punch

While the Elegant Edge Tag Topper Punch doesn’t exactly “go with” the Courage & Faith Stamp Set, it actually goes with…everything!

The channel to feed your cardstock or designer series paper into is 2″ wide. You may punch just 1 end, or flip your paper and punch both for extra flair!

Christmas Card Class Series, July 2023

Christmas Cards In July

Are you dreaming of a White Christmas, even though it is only July?

There is snow better time to start working on Christmas cards than right now. And I am kicking off my Christmas Card Class Series in July of 2023!

Trucking Along Bundle

This month’s Christmas Card kits feature the Trucking Along Bundle by Stampin’ Up!. This new bundle was just released as part of the Online Exclusives. If you were lucky to get this bundle at its debut, you have all you need to create the July Christmas Cards with me!

If you did not get the Trucking Along Stamp Set or Builder Punch, don’t worry…they will be back in stock. Contact me to help you place your order! You have plenty of time to get yours before the Christmas season is upon us. These card kits will wait, once you have them in hand.

But, if you aren’t interested in the Trucking Along Bundle at all, please use these card kits and whatever stamps, punches and dies make you happy to create with! The Trucking Along Bundle is not required to use the July Card Kits, just some creativity!

Christmas Card Kits

This new series features a set of monthly Christmas Card Kits (3 unique designs each month with a different Stampin’ Up! Bundle used), plus a full pack of embellishments and a full bolt of ribbon, delivered right to your door.

You will also receive an email with a PDF Card Recipe tutorial for each card. Use your tutorial for assembly, and save the directions to cut more card kits on your own at any time.

Your July Kit Consumables

For the July Christmas Card Kits, you will receive a full bolt of the Real Red & Gold Dotted Ribbon, along with the Adhesive Backed Sparkle Gems, in Champagne, Black and White. Use them on your Christmas Card Kits and beyond! The value of the embellishments alone is over $17.

The July Christmas Card Kits feature colors like Crumb Cake, Mossy Meadow, Smoky Slate and Real Red for a Natural or Country Christmas Theme. See the photo above for an idea of what you will be getting this month!

Christmas Card Class Series, July – November 2023

This brand new card class features my favorite type of card to make: Christmas. Each month, I will choose a different Stampin’ Up! Bundle, color theme, designer papers and embellishments to create 3 unique card designs. When you order your kit by the 24th of the month, you will be getting that month’s kit, shipped on the 25th.

Look for sneak peeks of the upcoming Christmas Card Class around the first week of each month. By the end of all 5 months, you will have 15 Christmas Card designs, 5 different embellishments and 5 bolts of unique ribbon, plus a great jump start on your own personal hand made Christmas Cards!

Wonderful Thoughts Card Class

Wonderful Thoughts Card Class

Wonderful Thoughts Bundle By Stampin’ Up!

Welcome to your Wonderful Thoughts Card Class! This week, I am using the Wonderful Thoughts Bundle by Stampin’ Up!. This bundle is a brand new release in the 2023-2024 Stampin’ Up! Annual Catalog. I will be sharing these wonderful cards and giving you how-to assemble tips during my live cardmaking class on Monday, July 10, at 8pm EST on The Maine Stamper FaceBook page.

Did you know that when you purchase a bundle, you automatically save 10%? When in doubt, buy the bundle. Nothing is more irritating than buying just the stamps or just the punch (or dies) and going back later to purchase the other half of the bundle.

Want to see another card class featuring some bright and fun colors with items in the 2023-2024 Stampin’ Up! Annual Catalog? Click here.

The Wonderful Thoughts Bundle

Wonderful Thoughts Bundle

The Wonderful Thoughts Bundle by Stampin’ Up! features the Wonderful Thoughts Stamp Set and the Wonderful Thoughts Dies. As mentioned earlier, by ordering the bundle (both stamp and punch together, (item #161494) you will save 10%.

Now, you don’t have to buy the bundle! You could purchase just the Wonderful Thoughts Stamp Set (item #161899) and have 14 meaningful phrases to use on your projects at any time. The dies are specific in shape to trim each sentiment (and more!), so purchasing just the Wonderful Thoughts Dies (item #161491) probably isn’t in your best interest.

Masking For Beautiful Backgrounds

items for masking techniques

This week our Card Class is also a Technique Class! We are exploring ways to use both the Masking Paper (item # 155480), and the Decorative Masks, Artistic Mix (item #159178).

There are a lot of ways to use either or both of these amazing products to create beautiful art in your creations. For this class, I am focusing on colorful assorted Ink Pads and Blending Brushes. When you create your cards at home, choose any color combos that you love!

Live Card Making Class On Monday

Every Monday at 8pm EST, I am live with your weekly card making class on my FaceBook page, The Maine Stamper. I create 3 beautiful cards and share tips and techniques along the way. This class serves as your tutorial when you receive your FREE card kits in the mail and need to put them together.

These adhesive backed embellishments are the “Little Black Dress” of gems. They go with everything!
