CRAFTDOC

The Heart & Home Suite is perfect for all season crafting. To me it feels like grandma’s summer garden or a warm, comfortable quilt. A few of the coordinating items are retiring in June, but both bundles are in the new Annual Catalog. At a Stampin’ Up! virtual event and at our last craft retreat, I enjoyed crafting with this collection – here’s what I made.

These 3 cards were designed by Stampin’ Up! staff for demonstrators. We did some layering and some coloring with ink and sponge daubers.

After the virtual event I made a few additional cards. Paper piecing is featured in the first one, and white heat embossing in the other two.

At the craft retreat I played with the Memories & More. It was so easy to layer on some doilies with the pre-printed cards.

My crafting table mate showed me how to make these beautiful cards by dry embossing both the background and the hexagons and sponging on some ink. Don’t you love those realistic bees? And the back of all the designer series paper (DSP) is a rustic wood paneling – perfect for the background.

I also dry embossed the DSP with the folder in the first card and added some white hexagons to the second.

I hope these vintage designs inspire you in your crafting endeavors. Click on the photos below to see the individual products that I used and don’t forget to check out the specials this month in my store.

Happy crafting,

Kim Wilson
