Stampin’ Up! Secret Garden

Happy Thursday to You!

I’ve got a lovely card for you today for this week’s Thursday Time Out and it uses the great Secret Garden Bundle.  I do love how Stampin’ Up! always create products that coordinate to make things easier for us!  You wonder how they can improve on that but they have by ‘bundling’ products together and giving you and me a little extra discount if we buy them in the bundle!  Did you know if you buy bundles that you save 15% on the price if you’d bought them separately?? How cool is that??

Here’s the Secret Garden Bundle ….

Now as an example if you were to purchase the Secret Garden stamp set in Wood and the Framelits you’d pay $87.90 and the bundle is just $73.95 so you’re saving nearly $14! What a great saving!

Where’s the card??

Here’s this week’s Thursday Time Out card using Secret Garden Bundle …

Recipe:
Stamps: Secret Garden, Wonderful Mother
Paper: Calypso Coral, Whisper White
Inks: Jet Black Stazon, Calypso Coral, Tangerine Tange, Old Olive
Accessories: Big Shot, Scallop Circle Bigz die, Circle Scissor Plus (retired), Secret Garden Framelits, Aqua Painter, Sponge Daubers

This is such a sweet Mother’s Day Card and very easy to make!  For such a special occasion one really needs to make a special envelope and here we have the card with the envelope which I’ve made from whisper white and used our wonderful Simply Scored Diagonal Plate …

It’s so good now to have the tools that make making your own envelopes so easy to create! If you would like to learn how to create your own envelopes and boxes using the Diagonal Plate be sure to contact me to book in for your Stampin’ Up! Party.

Now just because you are so special and it’s Anzac Day and all I have a little tip just for you!

I do so love the bundles like I said earlier however once I finally find my stamps I then have to go searching for the matching framelits … or vice versa!

So here’s an awesome little storage tip for you ….

I simply get some magnets from Officeworks and pop them on the inside of the cover of the Stamp Set case so now all I have to do is find the Stamp Case and I dont need to look any further!  The magnets come with adhesive on the back so it’s even better!

Now I know you are looking at those stamps and saying boy she hasnt even put them together … well I have!  I keep the full sheet of rubber that comes with the set and remove the backing so it clings to the box. This way I can see quickly if I’m missing a stamp in the set – which comes in very handy at Workshops and Classes! It also keeps the stamps neat and tidy too! I just wish I’d thought of this when I first started getting clear mounts as it would come in very handy with the Teeny Tiny Sentiments which has something like 30 little greetings in it!!

So I suppose that’s two tips for you today!

Remember you can order these products direct from my Online Store or you can email or ring your order through to me – either way is good!
