Rustic new home card using Stampin Up!’s Humble Home bundle

Stampin Up Humble Home rustic card idea

The Humble Home stamp set and coordinating punch from Stampin’ Up!® are so versatile. 

I’ve already used them for three very different cards for Christmas and thank yous. 

It goes without saying that this useful Stampin’ Up!® bundle will also work for birthdays.

For today’s blog post, I have used the Humble Home bundle for a new home card, which is perhaps the most obvious choice.

Make scrapbooking easy with card kits - yes, card kits!


Stampin Up easy scrapbooking from card kits


Since Stampin’ Up!® took over the troubled Close to My Heart scrapbooking business earlier this year, I have started scrapbooking again after a break of many years.

Happily, the takeover and launch of a new range of exciting Stampin’ Up!® scrapbooking products coincided with three new babies in the family, giving me LOTS of photos to scrapbook.

Having said that, it's a myth that you need children and small babies to justify scrapbooking; you can scrapbook your holidays, days out, family occasions, and even your day-to-day life.

But I have pledged to create two albums by Christmas, so am sticking with the baby and toddler theme.

How to turn around lots of pages quickly? Kits!

And not just Stampin’ Up!®’s fabulous new scrapbooking kits. I have a few part-finished Stampin’ Up!® card kits so decided to see if I could use these to make quick and easy scrapbook pages.

Short answer: yes you can!
