🦋 Create Beautiful Cards with the Butterfly Garden Kit

Posted on February 27, 2026 by sharon

If you joined me on Facebook Live today, you’ll have seen just how gorgeous and easy the Butterfly Garden Kit is from the Stampin’ Up! Kits Collection!

This all-inclusive kit is perfect for those days when you want to create something beautiful without pulling out your entire craft room. Everything you need comes right in the box — making it ideal for beginners, busy crafters, or anyone who simply loves a quick and satisfying creative session.

What’s Included in the Butterfly Garden Kit?

This kit creates 9 cards in total —
✨ 3 different designs
✨ 3 of each design

Inside the box you’ll find:

Pre-cut card bases
Coordinating die-cut pieces
Embellishments
Adhesive
Step-by-step instructions

It’s truly a “grab and craft” experience. No stamping, no measuring, no guessing — just relaxing creativity.

Perfect for Quick Crafting

One of the things I love most about the Kits Collection is how convenient they are. Whether you’re crafting at the kitchen table, taking supplies away on retreat, or fitting in a little creative time between life’s busy moments, this kit makes it simple.

The butterfly imagery is soft, fresh and uplifting — making these cards perfect for birthdays, thank you cards, or just sending a little happy mail to someone special.

Stepping It Up – Simple Changes, Big Impact

During my Facebook Live, I also shared how you can easily change up one of each card design to make it your own — even with an all-inclusive kit.

Here are a few ideas I demonstrated:

Rearranging the die-cut elements for a different layout
Adding extra dimension with foam adhesive
Layering elements in a new way
Swapping sentiment placements

It just goes to show that even when everything is provided for you, there’s still room to let your creativity shine!

If you already have a few extra supplies in your craft room, you can easily step these up even further — but you absolutely don’t need to. The kit is beautiful exactly as designed.

Who Is This Kit For?

🦋 New crafters who want everything ready to go
🦋 Busy creatives who love convenience
🦋 Anyone wanting a thoughtful handmade card stash
🦋 A lovely gift idea for a friend

It’s also a wonderful way to introduce someone to papercrafting without overwhelming them.

If you missed my Facebook Live, make sure you head over and watch the replay to see the alternative versions I created. I love showing how you can take something simple and add your own little twist!

If you’d like to get your hands on the Butterfly Garden Kit, you can order it through my online store and have it delivered straight to your door.

Happy crafting! 🦋✨

Happy Happenings Kit

Posted on February 25, 2026 by sharon

There is something so satisfying about opening a kit and knowing that everything you need is right there in the box — and the Happy Happenings Kit delivers exactly that.

This all-inclusive kit contains:

A stamp set
Ink spot
Clear stamping block
Pre-cut card bases and elements
Adhesive
Envelopes
Step-by-step instructions

And it makes 9 beautiful cards ready to celebrate life’s special moments.

Why I Love the Happy Happenings Kit

The Happy Happenings Kit is perfect for both beginners and experienced crafters. If you’re just starting out, you’ll love that it includes the stamps, ink and block — no extra supplies required. If you’re more experienced, you’ll enjoy the flexibility to make the designs your own.

The sentiments in this kit are versatile and uplifting, making it ideal for birthdays, congratulations, thank you cards and everyday celebrations.

I Changed Up the Designs!

While the instructions give you gorgeous layouts to follow, I couldn’t resist adding my own little creative twist.

That’s the beauty of a stamping kit — once you have the stamps and ink, you can:

Change the placement of elements
Add extra stamping for background detail
Flip layouts horizontally or vertically
Layer pieces differently for added dimension
Create alternative designs using the same supplies

I love showing that kits are not just “assemble as shown” — they are a starting point for creativity.

Perfect for Crafting at Home or With Friends

The Happy Happenings Kit would be fantastic for:

A relaxed craft afternoon
Gifting to a friend who wants to try stamping
Taking along to a retreat
Having on hand for quick cardmaking sessions

Because everything is coordinated, you get professional-looking results every time.

If you’d like to see how I changed up the designs, be sure to check out my latest video and let me know which version you prefer — the original layout or my alternative creations.

Creativity doesn’t have to be complicated — sometimes it just starts with opening a box and saying, “What if I tried this instead?”

Lots to Love Kit

Posted on February 23, 2026 by sharon

The Lots to Love kit is a fabulous kit in Stampin’ Up!’s Kit Collection.

If you’re looking for a quick, beautiful, and completely stress-free crafting experience, the Lots to Love Kit is such a joy to create with! I went live on Facebook on Friday to put this kit together — and let’s just say it was a little more “creative” than usual in more ways than one.

With my internet down, I had to stream the live using my phone instead of my normal streaming system. But you know what? Crafting is all about adapting and getting creative — and this kit made that part easy!

One of the things I absolutely love about the Lots to Love Kit is that it’s a non-stamping kit. That means:

✔ No stamps
✔ No ink
✔ No stamping blocks
✔ No prior experience needed

Everything is ready to go right out of the box. The pieces are pre-printed, pre-cut, and beautifully coordinated — all you need to do is assemble.

This makes it perfect for:

Beginner cardmakers
Crafting with kids or friends
Taking to a retreat or away on holidays
A quick creative session when time is short

It’s truly cardmaking made simple — but still stunning.

Why I Love the Lots to Love Kit

The designs in the Lots to Love Kit are fresh, modern, and full of warmth. The layering pieces create dimension without needing any special tools, and the colour palette is beautifully balanced.

What I especially enjoyed during today’s Facebook Live was how relaxing it felt to just assemble. No measuring. No die cutting. No decision fatigue. Just opening the box and creating.

Even though my setup wasn’t my usual polished system, the kit really shone on camera because the designs are already so thoughtfully put together.

Perfect for Busy Crafters

As someone who juggles a full schedule, I truly appreciate having something in my craft space that I can pull out and complete in one sitting. The Lots to Love Kit gives you that instant creative satisfaction without the prep work.

It would also make a beautiful gift — either assembled cards ready to give, or the kit itself for a crafty friend.

Watch the Replay

If you missed the Facebook Live, you can catch the replay over on my YouTube Channel but I’ve also listed the video below for you.

If you’d like to add the Lots to Love Kit to your collection, you can shop it through my online store. It’s a wonderful addition to your craft stash — especially if you love quick, coordinated, no-stamp projects.

Let me know in the comments — do you enjoy non-stamping kits, or are you a stamping-is-a-must kind of crafter? 💕

Birthday Sparkle Kit

Posted on February 16, 2024 by sharon

Create glittering birthday cards and gift tags with the Birthday Sparkle Kit! This kit includes six cards and six gift tags. Create each project with the included stamp set, die-cut paper pieces, and twine. It also includes other elements such as glitter stickers, pressed wood picks, coordinating envelopes, and gold foil paper pieces! It’s easy to create each project for your recipient or get ahead on your crafting for the year by making quick multiples. Either way, you’ve got a special paper craft that your recipients will love!

When I was looking at this kit before I went live I had a thought that I could make one of the cards into a shaker card. And that is exactly what I did with 2 of the cards. I kept one the same but I added some window sheet, strips of dimensionals and some shaker embellishments and created shaker cards. You can see the shaker elements in the image below. I’m so very pleased with how they turned out. What do you think? Will you create shaker cards with this kit too?
