I stamped the image twice and then fussy cut two of the flowers out and added them to the card with some dimensionals to add a bit of depth to the simple card. The sentiment is from a Close to my Heart retired set called With Love. Visit my website here for a full list of the supplies.

I am in love with Stampin’ Up!’s new Country Flowers bundle! I designed the card with the bundle to send to my new team members as I like to them a card and a little gift when they sign up. I thought this card would be a perfect way to celebrate them and their new adventure as a Stampin’ Up! demonstrator. (If you’d like some info on joining my team and the great Starter Kit promotion this month, feel free to visit my New Demonstrator FAQ page here.)
Today we are celebrating my dear friend Amy McGrew’s milestone of achieving
her 1,000th YouTube subscriber with a video collab. Because Amy has a bright and cheerful personality and loves bright colors the 9 papercrafters
who are participating are all creating a project with a bright and cheerful theme.
My project highlights the masking technique to create this cheerful floral
card. I walk you through the process step by step to create this card and then
show a couple other variations. Be sure to check out all of the other
YouTuber’s videos as well. You will find a link to each of their channels in
the description section at the bottom of my video.
Watch the video below to see the full process.
Here is a side view of the card so you can see the dimension a little better. You can even turn this type of card into a shaker card by adding some acetate and some confetti or sequins inside!
Here is a card I made using the die cut letters.
Of course I had to use the same technique to make a card for Amy.

Have you ever seen the movie You’ve Got Mail? There is a scene where Meg Ryan who plays Kathleen Kelly, says, “Don’t you think daisies are the friendliest flower?” I love that movie and I love daises. I DO think they are the friendliest flower and they make me happy!
This cheerful card was created using the Cheerful Daisies dies. I love how the multiple layers give the card so much dimension. I also used the Embossed Brick embossing folder for the background. The sentiment is from the Happy labels stamp set, which I believe is now retired. Click here for a full list of all of the products used.
This month's project kit is a set of 10 cards using Stampin’ Up!’s beautiful
Layered Floral 3D Embossing Folder, Simply Said stamp set, and the new In
Color Stamp Pads. In this class you will learn how to create two different
effects using the same technique. 5 cards will be monochromatic and the other
5 will have a fun pop of color. There will not be a local class this
month, but you can order the non-consumable supplies (embossing folder, stamp
set, etc) on my website
here and then I will
send you a package with pre-cut cardstock, (10) card bases and envelopes, and
the instruction guide absolutely free!

Close to my Heart Products
For former CTMH Makers and Customers
As many of you know when Close to my Heart decided to close their doors, they worked out a special deal with Stampin’ Up! to carry their limited supply of new products. Because they have a very limited supply, they are only able to offer them to former Makers and customers who had a valid email address on file with CTMH!
In order to purchase these limited edition products, visit my website here and make sure that you use the same email address that you used with your Close to my Heart account.
Each month through September, SU! will release new CTMH products. The May release is a bright and fun collection called Enjoy the Ride.
Visit my website here and search for Close to my Heart to see what products are currently available.
As many of you know, my new creative adventure as a Stampin’ Up! Demonstrator starts on May 1st. What you may not know, is that one of the exciting things that Close to my Heart has arranged as they prepare to close their doors, is for many of the new products that they designed for upcoming releases to be available through SU! instead!
How and when can you order? You will be able to order these CTMH designed products on my new Stampin’ Up! website www.lisa.stampinup.net. Once you are on my new site, simply go to the menu, select “Shop Products,” then click “CTMH Product.” The new products will be released throughout May, June, July, and August as they become available starting on May 1st. To make sure you are able to purchase the new collections, you will want to set up your online shopping account on May 1st.
Who can purchase the items? These products are only available to former CTMH Makers, VIP customers, and customers who had an online account with Close To My Heart. This is because Stampin’ Up! was only able to acquire a certain number of products from Close To My Heart for release. And while this is an exclusive offer, these Close To My Heart product quantities are limited and while supplies last.
Are you a CTMH VIP Customer? All former CTMH VIP's will receive a FREE new 2024-2025 Stampin' Up! annual catalog with their first order in May! They don't have a VIP program YET, but they still want to let our former VIP's know they are special!
Enjoy the Ride Paper Collection The first collection that will be available is called Enjoy the Ride. It is a super fun collection and is expected to sell out quickly! It includes a paper packet, sticker sheet, dots, two-toned cardstock, cardmaking stamp set & thin cuts, scrapbooking stamp set & thin cuts, a scrapbooking workshop kit, and a cardmaking workshop kit. Remember, these products will not be available until May 1st on my new website www.lisa.stampinup.net but you can set up your online shopping account on May 1st. Be sure to order anything you want right away on May 1st, because, unfortunately, we anticipate the buying frenzy of CTMH products will continue.
Here's a sneak peek at the Enjoy the Ride Collection...
Remember, these products will not be available until May 1st on my new website www.lisa.stampinup.net. To set up your online shopping account, you will want to click the heart icon in the upper right corner of the page (next to the shopping cart.) Then click “Create a new account” on the bottom. Make sure to use the same email address that you used for CTMH so you will be eligible to order the CTMH designed collections. Note: If you do this before 5/1/24, it will not show me as your demonstrator. If you place an order after 5/1, you can then choose me as your demonstrator.
