Save money with my zero waste shaker card and tags

Budget crafts Stampin Up zero waste shaker card tags

Do you want to know how to save money on your Stampin’ Up!® projects? I am here to help you get the most out of everything you buy, and already own.

As the cost of living crisis deepens worldwide and, it seems, particularly here in the UK, I want you to know that I’ve got your back. I have lots of ideas to help you make your Stampin’ Up!® supplies stretch further, based on years of being a frugal crafter who hates waste and wants to save the planet. 

Today I want to show you my zero waste shaker card and matching tags. Other than the card base itself, everything you see here is made from scraps of Stampin’ Up! cardstock and Designer Series Paper, leftovers from other projects or kits, or actual waste.

MORE Spruced Up Stampin' Up card ideas

Stampin Up UK Ireland Spruced Up card ideas
 
 
This week I am returning to the Spruced Up bundle from Stampin’ Up!® for some more bright and funky Christmas cards.

But first I am happy to tell you it’s a really BIG day at Stampin’ Up!® today (Tues 4th Oct) with lots happening to get excited about.

🇮🇪 The biggest news for us in the UK is that Stampin’ Up!® is launching in Ireland! We are so happy that our neighbours on the Emerald Isle can finally enjoy Stampin’ Up!® products and I am looking forward to helping Irish crafters find what they need and maybe even join my team.

To coincide with the launch in Ireland (and in Belgium), there are TWO amazing offers, whether you want to shop or join.

Spruced Up Stampin' Up card ideas

Stampin Up Spruced up card ideas

I’m a relative latecomer to the Spruced Up bundle from Stampin’ Up!® but then I’m a relative latecomer to Christmas cardmaking this year.

But after being seduced by all the gorgeous samples on Instagram, I was excited to receive my stamps and dies last week and got to crafting immediately.

The most amazing thing about the Spruced Up Outline dies in this bundle is that many of the dies – both trees, the parcel, baubles and snowflake – not only cut out the shape but create an outline too.
