The Share What You Love, Gotta Have it All Bundle is HUGE. I mean there is so much in it, including 3 FREE items!
The card I have for today is a fun fold (a fairly common one, but fun none the less) and is so pretty. It also shows that you can use Whisper White and Very Vanilla on the same project and it can work. If you pick the the right elements it really does work, don't you think?
The Embellishment kit that is FREE with the Bundle has some really cute items in it, and they are perfect if you want to put a quick, but really cute card together. I followed the lnes of the large label bu punching the corners with the 1/2" circle punch, it works perfectly for making the shape follow through to the mat layer. Take a look at all the products and Bundle options by clicking on the picture below.
How quick is that to put together? Some quick scoring, some pieces of Specialty Designer Series Paper, add some embellishments and you are done!

I have said it before, but if I see a bandwagon going past, I am very happy to jump on board and the Impossible Card is one of those.
I have seen a number of projects using this fun fold, but from what I can find, this originates from a card trick, not from a crafting trick. All I know is that it is really clever and incredibly easy as fun folds go. I have seen some quite complicated ways of measuring and cutting, but the only two measurements you really need are the middle on both edges, everything else you can just do as you wish. In the video I show you a variety of sizes, so do take a look at these.
I have given you the dimensions of the card I made further down this post, so you can take a look at these if you are more comfortable measuring everything. I used the Share What you Love Suite for the second version of the card. Remember that as a customer you can get the Early Release Bundles, which each include FREE products, between 1st and 31st May, so not too long to wait - click the picture below for all the details.

I had resisted buying the This Little Piggy stamp set, but now that I know we have it for another year, I have succumbed.
It is very cute, and historically my crafting has not been, but the more I embrace 'cute' the more I like it. I thought I would take a slightly different spin on this set (and apologise for the pun on this, which is coming!) and make a spinner card (you see, I told you a pun was coming!)
I love making these, they are really not difficult and need only two bits of special equipment - a couple of small coins, in my case two 1p coins. The slit is easy to make with the Classic Label Punch, the rest of the card is a standard, fairly clean and simple, card design.
I have used a mixture of carrying over and retiring products, all of which are available in the UK at the time of posting this. Obviously as products retire and go out of stock you can substitute others, so there is no excuse to not give this really easy and fun card a try.

Are you getting excited to see all the goodies coming in the new Annual Catalogue? I know I was excited to see everything when I went to OnStage a couple of weeks ago, and I was able to order some of it immediately, so you must be super excited!
Well, you could get your hands on some of the new items in just a few days (well actually you could get them now, but more of that in a bit). Stampin' Up! are releasing the very special Share What You Love Suite early, starting on 1st May. To help show you what is included in that Suite and just how versatile it is, I will be bringing you a few projects using some of the products over the next couple of weeks. This is the first:
The two cards are the same fold, but the closures and detailing are quite different; this is definitely one you will want to watch the video.
The Suite is available in 3 Bundles and they each include some FREE products, which is just wonderful. They could all be added to a Starter Kit (in fact they could be added to a Starter Kit NOW and then you would be able to get your hands on even more NEW product early with the Demo only Pre-order starting on 2nd May!!!). If you were to add the largest bundle to the Starter Kit, because of all the free products in the bundle, you could get over £150 of product for just £99 including free P&P!!! The details of the Bundles are here (this will open a pdf in a new window):
The video showing how to make the card and how I measure the pieces is just below. I am not icluding all the dimensions on this post as the video explains that I don't always have actual measurements, which allows a bit more flexibility in design. I warn you that it is one of my longer videos, but does include lots of additional information.
