2022 Blessing Box with Stampin' Up! Gathered Wheat Bundle

2022-Stampin-up-gathered-wheat-mini-box-and-cardsThe Blessing Box has become a tradition for me to share with you and here's the 2022 version created with the Stampin' Up! Gathered Wheat.

The idea behind the Blessing Box came to me when many would often tell me how much it meant to receive a card from me.  And, when my brother told me he'd kept every card I'd ever made for him.  It made me think about those who never receive a little "paper hug" in the mail.  How could that be changed even if only for just a few?

And, so, the Blessing Box was created.  A little box that holds 3 x 3 or smaller cards with a kind phrase, a verse from God's Word, or an uplifting message...just a random act of kindness.  There is no signature, no credit; just sharing in hopes that it will be a blessing in someone's day.

Below is the video featuring this year's Blessing Box. Here's hoping you are inspired to create one of your own.

Stampin-up-gathered-wheat-blessing-boxIn case you missed it in the video, here's a tip: Color white or light-colored ribbon with Stampin' Blends Alcohol Markers to get the coordinating color for your projects.

Here is the list of supplies used for this Blessing Box.


Thank you for your support! Each time you place an order through my online store,  it supports my business and allows me to continue sharing!  I am grateful to serve as your demonstrator.

Now that you have the know-how, make your own blessing box like this one made with Stampin' Up! Gathered Wheat and make a difference!


YouTube Premiere- Stampin' Up! Gathered Wheat Blessing Box

YouTube Premiere(13)

This evening, we will be creating my 2022 Blessing Box featuring the Gathered Wheat Bundle.  We have made a version of this blessing box for several years and I hope you will create one this year! Watch the video premiere tonight to hear the story behind this project. 

Mr. Brown and I will be in Branson this evening so one of my team members, Kristen Martin, will be with you in the chat.  Please tell her hello and be sure to leave a comment. ;)

Bay Window Fun Fold with Gathered Wheat Bundle

Stampin-up-gathered-wheat-fun-fold-bay-window

Today's project is a bay window fun fold created with the Gathered Wheat Bundle (English) [159843] that was featured during this week's LIVE video over on my Facebook business page and also on YouTube. 

This bay window fold is really easy to do. The biggest challenge can be the cutting and the scoring details but don't let that scare you. Just measure twice before you cut or you score. This card will be well worth the extra time and effort that you put into it.

The Gathered Wheat Bundle from the Stampin' Up! Mini Catalog has some beautiful gratitude sentiments. The fonts are also very pretty.  I think you would really enjoy using this during this season of thanksgiving.

Take a look at the video below. I've taken the liberty of starting it at the point where the demonstration of this card begins. Enjoy and then read on for a few details.

Lisa's Inklings:

  • Card base is cut 4 1/4 x 11 and scored at 3/8, 1 7/8, 3 5/8, 5 1/8,  and 5 1/2.
  • Designer paper is cut 4 1/8 x 6 and scored at 1 3/8, 1 5/8, 1 3/8, 1/4, and 1 3/8.
  • Use scraps of other papers to stamp and/or die-cut. For specifics, refer to the video.

Stampin-up-gathered-wheat-thank-you-card-fun-foldThe simple wheat design is enhanced with two colors of ink...Crumb Cake and Crushed Curry.

It's your turn to try this fun fold with the Gathered Wheat Bundle so create your own and post it over in the comments under this card on Ink and Inspirations with Lisa Brown on Facebook.

Let's get our holiday cards ready with the 2022 Christmas Online Class Series from Lisa Brown, Ink and Inspirations.


2022 Stampin' Up! Christmas Card with the Framed Florets Bundle

Stampin-up-fun-fold-fitting-floretsToday's project is another 2022 Stampin' Up! Christmas Card idea using the newFramed Florets Bundle (English) [162407]. These are non-traditional colors for the holidays taking the cur from the Fitting Florets Designer Series Paper [161814]. If you’re looking for a paper that transcends and extends the festive paper crafting season,then you’ll love the Fitting Florets 12" x 12" Designer Series Paper! This botanic beauty has touches of the Christmas season—mistletoe sprigs, gorgeous gingham, red berries—but also all-occasion florals and petite patterns. Plus, this color scheme is one you can use for a sophisticated twist on Christmas gift tags, or for birthdays and special occasions all year long. Whether you’re fussy cutting floral designs or creating beautiful card fronts, this is a paper you can use no matter the season!

This card is a great little fun fold card with a belly band.  You can see the how-to video HERE.

Framed-florets-fun-fold-christmas-cardHere's a peek at the inside with the Christmas greeting.  The Night of Navy is a pretty contrast to the Polished Pink.  These

Here are the supplies used to create this project:

Stampin-up-2022-christmas-card-framed-florets

The Framed Florets Bundle comes with everything you need to create handcrafted cards with detailed, elegant frames! Just die-cut the frame and the elegant stamped floral images. Finish off with a heartfelt sentiment and some color and you have a card they’re sure to love!

Try this fun fold Christmas card for 2022 with the products from the Fitting Florets Collection from Stampin' Up!


Gift Tag or Card Idea with Stampin' Up! Framed Florets

Framed-florets-tag-gift

You know how we love sharing gift ideas here on Ink and Inspirations and here's another one dressed up with the Framed Florets Bundle (English) [162407] that was released this week from Stampin' Up!

This time, we are creating a tag that you can use as a card front or embellish a simple gift. This little package was purchased for this project specifically in mind for the Thanksgiving season here in the United States. When you add a fancy tag, much like this one,  just a simple package of dinner napkins that can be used during the holidays becomes something special. It really makes for a pretty presentation.

Doing this also eliminates the need for gift wrap and is just very welcomed by those who receive it as it's such a functional gift.  This project was featured on my YouTube premiere this week, so I wanted to share it here in case you missed it. Let's take a look at the video tutorial.

Lisa's Inklings:

Framed-florets-gift-tag-card

As mentioned in the video, these two gift packs are going to our granddaughter's teachers.  As a former public school teacher, I would have loved a little gift such as this one. These new products from the Fitting Florets Collection are beautiful. Here is another idea HERE.

Here are the Stampin' Up! supplies used for this project.  When you order from me, it allows me to continue to share here on the blog and social media.  Thank you in advance!

Let me know if you make a gift tag such as this one and how you plan to use it in the comments below.  Thanks for stopping by today for this gift tag idea with Stampin' Up! Framed Florets Bundle (English) [162407].

It's a birthday card that utilizes the Framed Florets bundle and the Fitting Florets Designer Series Paper [161814]. The set of dies included in this bundle is just beautiful. They contain three oval shapes that you can mix and match for your projects.
