May Stamp Club: Strength & Hope

Hi Stampers,
As part of their Making a Difference program, Stampin' Up! is proud to partner with The Breast Cancer Research Foundation in the Strength & Hope Campaign, and will donate $2 from the sale of each Strength & Hope set and digital kit to The Breast Cancer Research Foundation (BCRF).  For more information about this organization, visit the BCRF website today.

This is the digital version....

In honor of this program, here are our May club projects...

The card measures 3x6 when folded and is cut from a piece of 12x12 cardstock.  Cut cardstock to 3x12 and fold in half.  It will fit in a "bill paying" envelope.  You can get 4 cards from one sheet of 12x12 cardstsock or 48 cards from a whole pack.  The idea for this card came from Stampin' Success, a rubber stamping magazine Stampin' Up! sends to its demonstrators each month. Supplies used:  Strength & Hope stamp set; Baseful Blue and Whisper White cardstock (cut to 2 3/4 x 4 1/2);  Blushing Bride, Bashful Blue and Rose Red Classic Ink; Blushing Bride Stitched-Poly Ribbon. 

This is a Butterfly Easel Card.  It stands up by itself. 

 Here's what the "easel" will look like from the side...

We all know people who have been touched by some form of cancer.  As stampers, we really can make a difference in the lives of others by sending hand-stamped notes of love and encouragement to people who have been touched by this horrible disease.  Don't forget to send encouraging notes to the caregivers--they need encouraging too!  Supplies for butterfly card:  Friends 24-7 stamp set; Blushing Bride, Whisper White cardstock; Blushing Bride and Concord Crush Classic Ink; Stampin' Dimensionals; 1" Circle Punch.  Bye for now, Maria
