Kickstart your creativity with All Things Stampy’s NEW Kits by Mail

Craft Kits Stampin Up Butterfly Bijou

Have you seen these beautiful papers from the new Butterfly Bouquet promotion? Would you believe these cards are made with just the Butterfly Bijou Designer Series Paper, and the only stamps I’ve used are greeting stamps? Ok, oops, I used a little dotty background stamp on the left one too.

What I’m clumsily trying to say is that even though the Butterfly Brilliance stamp set is currently on back order in the UK, you can still watch the butterflies flutter by on your cards by cutting out the images from the Butterfly Bijou Designer Series Paper. 

And with this in mind, I am very excited to bring you a new range of All Things Stampy exclusive kits – launching this month with a butterfly theme.

Each month I will be offering UK-based crafters a different Kit By Mail, featuring a range of top quality Stampin’ Up!® products hand-picked by me to help you create beautifully co-ordinated projects.

Please note: This is NOT a club. There is no monthly commitment; just purchase the kits which take your fancy as and when you choose. 

 Craft Kits Stampin Up Butterfly Bijou 

Each kit will contain half a pack of Designer Series Paper, at least eight sheets of co-ordinating cardstock, some ribbon and embellishments. It will not contain stamps or ink, although you are of course welcome to add these if you wish.

Plus, if you purchase the kit you will receive access to project ideas to help you get the most out of your new supplies.

Who are these kits for?

✂️ Crafters who enjoy having co-ordinating products at their fingertips
✂️ Crafters who like to ‘try before they buy’, without committing to full-sized packs
✂️ Crafters who want it all but the budget won’t stretch to the whole catalogue!
✂️ Crafters who are overwhelmed by choice
✂️ Crafters who need a little help designing projects
✂️ New crafters who are still building up their supplies
✂️ Crafters who love receiving happy mail!

How it works

Each month, normally on the 1st, I will announce the kit of the month and take orders for one week only. Kits will cost £20, including postage to anywhere in the UK. 

Once the supplies arrive with me I will post them out to you. A link to the PDF of project ideas will be emailed to you on the same day.

March Kit By Mail

My first Kit by Mail is a celebration of spring and features the brand new Butterfly Bijou Designer Series Paper. This beautiful new collection features colourful butterflies and some very lovely wood-grain paper.

Craft Kits Stampin Up Butterfly Bijou

The kit contains:

  • Half a pack of Butterfly Bijou 6”x6” Designer Series Paper (four sheets of each design)
  • Half a pack of Natural Touch Specialty paper, cut down to 6”x12”
  • Half a pack of Matte Black Dots
  • 2 metres of Bumblebee Gingham Ribbon

Here is an example of what you could make using the supplies in the kit. I’ve die-cut the Basic White cardstock using Stitched Shapes Dies and stamped with the Peaceful Moments greeting stamp set. Everything else you see is part of this first kit.

This card, too, was made from the kit, with the addition of some stamped spatters (Friends Are Like Seashells, which just happened to be on my desk) and a Peaceful Moments greeting. Using the butterflies on the edges of the paper like this means you get the absolute most value out of your Designer Series Paper and don’t have to throw those ‘half butterflies’ away!

There will be lots more card ideas and tips with this kit, so if you would like to order one, please click here to get started.

Introducing Stampin’ Up!®'s new Butterfly Brilliance Collection

Butterfly Brilliance Brilliant Wings Stampin Up

Did you get a glimpse of spring at the weekend like we did in Derbyshire? It was glorious and provided hope for better, warmer days ahead.

One thing to look forward to when the weather warms up is the return of butterflies to our gardens, and a new collection of products from Stampin’ Up!® attempts to bring those sunnier days forward a little.

It’s called the Butterfly Brilliance collection and features some gorgeous products which work together brilliantly but also stand alone.

Project inspiration

First take a look at some of the beautiful projects you can make with this collection.

The products



Butterfly Brilliance Brilliant Wings Stampin Up
 
First of all there is this amazing Butterfly Brilliance stamp set which is actually just one huge stamp, although you could cut it up into individual butterflies if you wish... and are feeling brave.

To coordinate with the stamp, although they work well alone, too, are the Brilliant Wings dies. This is a huge set of 12 dies; one big one cuts the stamped images all in one go (one great reason NOT to cut up your stamp!), and separate dies cut out patterned wings and much more.

The stamps and dies are, as usual, available as a bundle at 10% off.

The perfect accompaniment is this gorgeous pack of 6"x6" Butterfly Bijou Designer Series Paper. Again this fits the dies perfectly...

If you look carefully at this photo you’ll see you can cut out the butterflies all in one go using that big die. The reverse sides of the DSP have stunning watercolour washes and subtle designs.

And what’s this? Natural Touch Speciality Paper, with the pattern, texture and colour of natural birch. Simply stunning.

If you want the whole lot – and why wouldn’t you? – you can buy it all in one go with one code, for speed.You’ll get the special bundle price for the stamps and dies, plus the Designer Series Paper and the Speciality Paper on top.


If you are in the UK and would like to order, please visit my store and, if you use the March host code HYEBNWP3, I’ll send you a thank you gift in April!
