If you wondered how to use the cool Stampin’ UP! Days to Remember calendar stamp in the NEW Annual Catalog…this is the post for you! Think how cool it will be to personalize a card for a special event!!!
HAHAHA…30 DAYS HATH SEPTEMBER….
I WAS TOO INTENT ON THE TECHNIQUE AND MISSED THAT!!!
And…not sure what year that September 21 will be on a Monday…what calendar was I looking at?!?!? I see in the video when I said September 21 was on a Tuesday, I mistakenly put September 1 on a Tuesday to start the calendar…
Here is a video showing how unbelievably easy it is to make the calendar!!!!!
Of course, the Stampin’ UP! Flowers of Friendship Punch Bundle colored with the Stampin’ Blends alcohol markers is perfect to decorate the calendar image. I used the NEW In Colors Polished Pink, Fresh Freesia, and Soft Succulent.
Two cards for two sweet friends…Let’s just make sure they get in the mail, Cindy!
Everything you need to make a card markng a special event or to make a 12 month mimi desk/purse calendar:)

Kit contains enough supplies to create 9 cards—3 each of 3 designs—and coordinating envelopes. The all-inclusive kit includes printed card bases, die-cut paper pieces, embellishments, adhesive, and more.

*My Active Paper Pumpkin Subscribers (who receive their monthly kit through me) will be mailed, by the end of the month, an alternate card/project.
Here is an alternate card I made with the April 2021 Paper Pumpkin called “So Cool”. I found some cute card kits from Sale-a-bration from about four or five years ago and put them to use!
I love how I can use my stamp sets from my Paper Pumpkins long after the supplies are used up in the kit. And I find myself using the neat embellishments/supplies on other cards other than my kit cards, too! Great to have on hand for a craft fix with everything at my fingertips!
My Stamparatus came in handy on this card- quick and easy stamping. I used Hinge Stamping to easily make a design with the sentiment. You can see how to do this in the video below I made a while back. And since I was stamping on a pattern paper card stock, if I needed to “re-stamp” the sentiment, I could easily stamp it again in the same place.
This week I showcased the Stampin’ UP! Hand Penned Suite…and this card shows even more! The Stampin’ UP! Hand Penned Memories and More Cards and Envelopes are AB-SO-LUTELY gorgeous! I used the Basic Borders Dies to cut off a small portion of the bottom of the card front.
The Basic Border Dies are so awesome! SIX dies that can cut up to the 6″ size of the Memories and More Cards!
I adhered a strip of the Stampin’ UP! Hand Penned Designer Series Paper to the bottom of the inside of the card.
OMGosh…I used the NEW Tailor Made Tags Dies for the sentiment, too! The sentiment can be found in the Stampin’ UP! Quiet Meadow stamp set. The Penned Flower Dies became the focal point of the outside with some 2021-2023 In Color Jewels.
See how cool the Stampin’ UP! Tailor Made Tags Dies are….
Here is a card using the Hand Penned Suite in the NEW Stampin’ UP! 2021-2022 Annual Catalog.
It’s a super easy fun fold to make especially since It uses the Stampin’ UP! Hand Penned Memories and More Card Pack- no stamping was done on this card at all! Check out the video I made:
The sentiment and the focal image in the circle are stickers in the Stampin’ UP! Hand Penned Memories and More Card Pack. A few Black Matte Dots add a little decoration to the front of the card in addition to the stunning watercolored Hand Penned Designer Series Paper.
Thanks for buzzing by, friends…
