Stampin Up Sweet Storybook. Using the Leaves on Projects

The SWEET STORYBOOK BUNDLE is a new stamp set and coordinating thinlets in the new annual catalogue.  I have been using this bundle in lots of different ways and today I am concentrating on the leaf foliage stamp.

This first card uses the foliage stamp simply stamped in Mint Macaron and the little flowers stamped at the end of each one of the fronds in Calypso Coral with a couple die cut in Real Red for a little dimension.  The sentiment from the set is die cut with the rectangular die from the same thinlets.

For this card we stepped it up a bit by adding some die cut flowers from the COLOURFUL SEASONS stamp set and coordinating dies.  For this card I stamped the foliage stamp from the Sweet Storybook, stamping off once to get a subtle tone and then using the STAMPARATUS in my opinion the best positioning tool on the market, stamp around the edge of the card.  The card I used was 4.75" square with a matt of Tranquil Tide 5" square.

The stamp and die cut two of the leaf foliage images, they stamp and cut in a pair, one in Tranquil Tide and the other in Lemon/Lime Twist.  With our PAPER SNIPS, perfect sharp pointed and easy to use craft scissors, cut the leaves apart and then place in a wreath around the card and stick down using dimenionals to some height and interest.  Arrange the flowers around the card and then add a sentiment of your choice in the middle.

One of the best things about Stampin Up products is their versatility. One stamp set and coordinating die can create so many different projects.  This is why I love being a Stampin Up Demonstrator, sharing all these lovely things with you all.

Here are a couple of videos using the Sweet Storybook in different ways. Enjoy and please look at subscribing to my YouTube channel and blog as I post regularly and love sharing new ideas with Stampin Up with you all.

Stampin Up Sweet Storybook and the Stamparatus, toadstool and mouse.

The Stampin Up STAMPARATUS is the perfect positioning tool and I must admit I use it most of the time as it saves me time in my stamping and I love how I can get all my stamp aligned at the same time just by rotating the plates, and the hinge step makes making duplicates so easy.  Want to know what I mean? then just watch the video below.




SWEET STORYBOOK I just adore.  I have always loved anything to do with nature so a stamp set with leafy foliage, toadstool and mice are right up my street.

I'd like to give a big thank you to my subscribers on my YouTube channel for their lovely comments and this video is for everyone who wanted a toadstool to be used.  If you haven't already subscribed to my channel then please do so you don't miss any of my videos.  I have 54 already there and try a post a couple of time a week and will always try and come up with ideas and styles you might not have seen anywhere else.

If you missed yesterdays video then here it is again

and here is the finished card from this project

Happy stamping and enjoy your day. I am grateful to each and every one of you for your support of my videos and blog. Thank you x

Stampin Up Sweet Storybook and the Stamparatus.

The STAMPARATUS is in my opinion the best positioning tool on the market and I use it all the time.  Always get a perfect stamped image every time is one of the great benefits.

Today's project is the video for the lovely card I posted the other day using the SWEET STORYBOOK











The foliage leaves are just perfect to frame any card whether it be flowers or just a large sentiment and of course the little mice make a perfect nature card.

This is one of the things I love about Stampin Up products they can be used to make so many different cards and projects.  Stampin Up quality is extremely high and each set has been carefully designed to ensure it can be used in many different ways making every piece great value for money.

Stampin Up Sweet Storybook

Feeling really excited as my order from the new annual catalogue arrived today.

SWEET STORYBOOK is the most delightful bundle of stamp set and framelits and this is the first project I made.


I absolutely adore the leaves which I stamped in Tranquil Tide and Mint Macaron. The little flowers and heart on the sentiment used Calypso Coral and the little mice in Crumb Cake and Sahara Sand.

This is the bundle and shows you all the different pieces.

As you can see the leaves die cuts two and stamps two at the same time but die cut separately so you can use them in different ways on a project (as I did in the card above.

This peep through card is the example in the catalogue and shows how all the elements come together for this lovely card.



As you can see on my card I have given the card a country nature feel, by taking four of the leaves and putting the mice separately tucked into the foliage.  The sentiment and rectangular die give a more grown up feel with "for my little squeakheart".

Subscribe to my blog as I will be showing more projects over the coming days and will get a video up with this great set by Friday (if you haven't already subscribe to my YouTube channel as I have 53 videos with some fun ideas and techniques.

Havent got a new catalogue yet? let me know and I will send one out to you FREE of charge.
