Sea Turtle Stamp Set

Sea Turtle Card Class

Welcome to your Sea Turtle Card Class! This week, I am using the Sea Turtle Stamp Set by Stampin’ Up!. This stamp set is a stand alone item, as there are no dies or a punch to go with it.

But, there is a really cool feature to this one! The stamps in the Sea Turtle Stamp Set are Reversible Stamps. Wondering what that means?

These stamps are meant to work both on the front to get a detailed image, and flipped over to the back (or smooth side) to get a shadow image. It is really awesome to play with these, and you can check out my live demo where I did just that by clicking here.

The Sea Turtle Stamp Set

The Sea Turtle Stamp Set claims to have 8 stamps in it…and it does. But it also doubles in value because of the Reversible style, making it16 stamped images.

Reversible stamps are very similar to two-step stamping. However, instead of using 2 different stamps to create an image, you are able to use just one stamp, front and back!

The only downside to this feature is that you have to clean your stamp off between flipping it back and forth to use both sides. I find the Simply Shammy is the best way to do this! Make sure you have one (or two!) in your craft room.

Bigger Than Expected Stamps

While the front cover of the Sea Turtle Stamp Set shows smaller images of both the front and back of each stamp, inside the stamp case there is another story! When you flip this stamp set open, you may be surprised to see the real size of each stamp! I just love the big turtle!

Easter Bunny Card Class

Easter Bunny Bundle

Your Weekly Card Class From ME

Welcome to your Easter Bunny Card Class! This week, I am using the Easter Bunny Bundle by Stampin’ Up!. This bundle is currently unavailable to purchase, because the Easter Bunny Punch is on backorder.

So why am I holding a weekly class based on product you can’t currently buy? First of all, it is the first day of spring. Bunnies seemed like the perfect subject.

And secondly, the Easter Bunny Bundle is making a come-back. It is scheduled to hop back in stock on May 15, which means it will also be a carry-over item from the January-April Mini Catalog into the new 2023-2024 Annual Catalog.

Sad we aren’t covering flowers this week? Check here to see my last class, which featured the Sentimental Park Bundle.

The Easter Bunny Stamp Set

The Easter Bunny Stamp Set is made up of 15 photopolymer stamps. But the best part about this stamp set really is the bunnies themselves. You get 3 of them, all in different adorable poses. One of the bunnies coordinates perfectly with the Easter Bunny Punch.

The Easter Bunny Punch

While the Easter Bunny Punch remains on backorder, there will be a day in the future for its return. In the meantime, you can always fussy cut the bunny image if you prefer. The lines of the stamp are simple ones without too many odd angles.

During my live card class, I shared how you can use the bunny punch so that the bunny faces in different directions when punching cardstock or designer series paper. You just need to punch the back of your DSP to get a bunny who faces left. Otherwise, stamp and punch (or just punch) to get a bunny that faces the right.

Sentimental Park Card Class

Sentimental Park Bundle

Your Weekly Card Class From ME

Welcome to your Sentimental Park Card Class! This week, I am using the Sentimental Park Bundle by Stampin’ Up!. This set is part of the Regency Park Suite Collection, in the January-April 2023 Mini Catalog. As part of a suite, there are a lot of amazing components that we get to explore…and we did experiment with the Petal Park Bundle just last week!

The Sentimental Park Stamp Set

Just like the Petal Park Stamp Set, the Sentimental Park Stamp Set is also photopolymer. However, this stamp set is heavy on the sentiments! And not only lots of sentiments, but lots of sizes and fonts too.

You will also find some great two-step stamping style flowers in this stamp set too. And who doesn’t love flowers? Another great thing about this stamp set is that it coordinates so nicely with the…

Sentimental Park Dies

I love coordinating dies! I am able to quickly die cut my stamped images for a polished and professional look.

But these Sentimental Park Dies have a secret super-power! There is a way to layer the sentiment pieces and line up the stitched outlines by interlocking them. I shared those details during my live card making class, which you can see here.
