I've shown you kits in the past because they are a great value, a fantastic way to introduce someone to card making and come with everything you need, delivered right to your mailbox! Now there is an even bigger reason to be excited about the kits from Stampin' Up! - they are on sale during the month of August, 2023 (up to 30% off!)!!!
In this video, I am showing the Forever Friends Kit, which makes eight cards in two designs. The envelopes have beautiful green foil stripes and the cards feature a floral design. There is a little bit of stamping but not many pieces, so the cards go together quickly.
The kit comes with everything you need (except scissors) - here are the two card designs. The one difference is that I used more coral thread in the second card to add just a bit more color than the loop like the first card.
Although the kit comes with the Night of Navy Spot, it coordinates with these additional colors: Petal Pink, Calypso Coral, Daffodil Delight, and Old Olive. In the video, I show how you can soften the look of the cards by using some of the other ink colors. This is a nice way to customize your kit if you want to. I also used a bone folder and Mini Glue Dots for these cards, which do not come with it. I show a close up of what I did on the inside of each of them too - I stamped in the corners to leave more room for writing. You can move the position of the sentiment, or change up the orientation of the cards - both simple changes that will give you just a bit more variety.
I know this isn't my typical video where I show my original designs and often a technique, but I didn't want to miss the chance to share with you the fabulous opportunity to purchase kits this month for a great discount! And just think - you could do some early Christmas shopping! I bet you know a few people who would love to get one!
