This is a card we’ll be doing in our Stampers Club (which I am contemplating renaming “Card Club”….anyway, I digress…). It’s a “sending love card” which could be used for Valentine’s Day or just to keep in touch with a friend.
I created this card with the Snailed It Bundle – which includes the Snailed It stamp set and the Snail Dies. I love the little envelope die! I used it to create three envelopes and then die cut a heart and the “letter” sized stitched rectangle to go inside. The stamp set has a cute cartoon feel to it – so I like that you can use some of the items to create a not over the top cutesy card.
For the club version of this sending love card, I focused on the die cuts, since I can include die cuts in the card kits. Stampin’ Up! regulations prohibit us from including any pre-stamped images in our kits, so for those club members who have the stamp set and bundle, (or non-club members who are seeing this card on the YamStamps site! LOL) my suggestion is to add the “hello” stamp to one of the little letters in the envelope, or to one of the strips of cardstock on the front of the card.
With the current stay at home regulations in Ontario, mailing cards is a great way to keep in touch while staying physically distanced – and you can get out for exercise by walking to the mailbox?! I will let you know that it seems that shipping may take a little longer than the usual due to the sheer volume of parcels in general that are being moved by the various companies – so you may want to keep that in mind. If you would like to use the Snailed It Bundle for your Valentine’s Day cards, you will likely want to place an order sooner rather than later. Plus if you order the bundle before the end of February, you’ll qualify for a Level One free Sale-a-Bration item since the bundle is just over the $60 product level! You can shop online from anywhere in Canada in the YamStamps Online Stampin’ Up! Canada store by clicking on this link or remembering the shortcut yamstamps.com/shop. The other option is to email me and I can place the order for you – you can either arrange to do a porch pickup in Burlington ON or I can have the order shipped directly to you in Canada. Trying to give you lots of options so that you can get fun new product to get crafty!
