Look what I made - Share Sunshine!

Hello friends!

Last Thursday Stampin' Up! held an employee Day of Service event and invited demonstrators and customers to stamp along online. We used the Share Sunshine PDF Download (click here to see my blog post about it) to make cards to send to loved ones, frontline workers, etc. The PDF is available through June 2nd.

I mostly used my paper trimmer to cut the greetings and sentiments that I wanted to use on my cards. I did cut a few out using dies and punches, but not many.

I followed along on Facebook with Sara’s CEO Facebook page. If you were unable to participate in the live craft party, the replay is still available to view any time on Sara’s Facebook page.

I made 17 cards! I gave a few to my office mates and mailed many more. I used my favorite retiring designer series paper (DSP), Woven Threads, and mostly already retired embellishments. Without any further ado, here are my cards. 









It's not too late to make some cards! You will need card bases, Designer Series Paper, a printed copy of the Share Sunshine PDF Download (which can be purchased here), embellishments, adhesive, and scissors or a Paper Trimmer. There is an instruction sheet for Sara’s four-step cards, which includes a cut map for your Designer Series Paper (any Designer Series Paper will work). Note: A full package of 12" x 12" Designer Series Paper will be enough to make four kits (20 cards). You can find the instruction sheet here. 

If you do make cards with the PDF, please share. I'd love to see what you created!

Stamping is fun!

Make a Difference - Share Sunshine

Hi friends!

I have some news to share!
 
As always, Stampin’ Up! is committed to making a difference in our global communities and caring about people first. As part of their Making a Difference program, they’re offering an opportunity to support organizations that are helping COVID-19 frontline responders and communities vulnerable to the pandemic through the purchase of a digital stamp set, Share Sunshine.

When you purchase the Share Sunshine PDF download, Stampin' Up! will donate 100% of the proceeds to COVID-19 efforts. (Click here to see all the images in this stamp set.)


The Share Sunshine PDF Download is a digital stamp set that’s packed with both lighthearted and heartfelt sentiments and imagery relevant to the unique COVID-19 and social distancing situation we’re currently experiencing. You can use the download in your cardmaking and papercrafting projects. Simply print the imagery on cardstock and cut it out using a paper trimmer, punches, or dies. Since we are physically distanced from each other, now is a perfect time to share sunshine with our friends and family by sending cards! Buy the digital download here. This stamp set will be available through June 2, 2020.

The following charities are the sole beneficiaries of each purchase—that means every cent goes to these organizations:
