Yesterday was the Stampin’ Up! Day of Service and I enjoyed a fun and relaxing hour watching a Facebook Live with Sara Douglass, CEO of Stampin’ Up! and her family at home making Covid -19 cards using sayings on the Share Sunshine PDF download. I made several cards, sometimes taking inspiration from Sara’s instructions and sometimes my own, and afterwards I made more cards. And after dinner, I made even more cards!

These cards were supposed to be kept simple and since I was making a lot I just wanted to mostly make basic cards. I have a few that I may go back and put maybe a few embellishments on, but I may not!

If you missed the Facebook Live yesterday with Sara, you can still watch the replay today or at your convenience on Facebook HERE. I would suggest that you watch her previous Facebook Live where she explained how the cards are designed, how to cut your designer paper, etc. You don’t have to follow her designs, you can do your own, too. You don’t have to use these greetings on the Share Sunshine Download, you can use your own.

This is a great way to use up some of your retiring or retired designer paper before the new papers come out June 3 in the new Stampin’ Up! catalog! Sara shows an easy way to cut your paper so you can make several card designs that are simple enough for any stamper and then you can embellish if you like.

This is the Follow Your Art Designer Series Paper but other papers would be nice too. This paper has a great discount on it so go grab a package! Sara also used some embellishments in the Follow Your Art Embellishment Kit which is also discounted! The kit includes felt accents, charms, linen thread, paper clips and the cute box.

Sara’s intention was that we stampers can #SpreadSunshine with our cardmaking skills and then send them to friends, family, frontline workers, nursing homes, neighbors, wherever you like.

You might enjoy just watching the Facebook Live video from Sara and her family even if you don’t have time to make cards right then. It’s always fun to see new ideas and see what cards other people are making!
