Stampin’ Up! A Look at Our Two New Kits – and Some Blog Candy!

Good morning and happy Friday – the LAST Friday of 2024.  Yikes – am I right!?  Can you believe it’s almost 2025? I’m a little gobsmacked by that – the year flew by!!

I recently acquired our two newest kits – and put them BOTH together soon as I got them in hand!  I really like them – and think you will, too!

The first one I put together was one of the Cherry Blossoms Treat Boxes Kits that I got.  Yes – I got TWO of them and….that’s some foreshadowing! 😉

When I opened the kit, I found everything I needed to make twelve really cute treat boxes!   That included a stamp set – and an Early Espresso Classic Ink Spot.

I decided to make all my treat boxes the same – and to use the “sweet baby” sentiment.  Since I’m thinking these would be great baby shower favors – and since I know that the impending tiny human is a boy – I did pull out my Balmy Blue ink pad to stamp the sentiments!  But all the rest of the stamping is in Early Espresso.

Now – in case you’re wondering – the boxes are 2″ x 2″ – with a “straight” height of 1 3/4″.  With the curved top – the height near the center is probably closer to 2″.  So – some candy and/or other little goodies will fit nicely!

I made all the tags and then put just one of the twelve boxes together – and will assemble the remainder when I decide on what to put inside!  The boxes get a little strip of included adhesive and then just fold together!

Once they’re assembled – there’s a pretty Cherry Blossom right on the top!

I think they’re going to be great party or table favors – and, with a different sentiment (“thank you” and “for you” is included) – would make for really pretty teacher or office-mate gifts!

I always like a how-do-I-make-it video so…here ’tis! 🙂

The second kit I assembled is the new Perpetual Beauty Calendar Kit!

 

First off, I used the Pretty Peacock Classic Ink Spot to stamp the names of the months on the included label stickers.   That’s the only stamping there is – everything else involves adding stickers to pre-printed pages!

With twelve decorated pages – there’s plenty of opportunity to use the pretty foliage stickers in Garden Green, Lost Lagoon, Misty Moonlight, Pretty Peacock and gold foil!

There ARE instructions on how to decorate each page but…you could for sure do your own thing!!

I started filling mine in soon as I got it done – some things are every-year-on-the-same-day and some…will be year specific.  So…I filled mine in in PENCIL!

And yep.  There’s a video for this one, too!

What beautiful kits! And they’re so easy to put together! Either – or both! – would be an awesome gift for someone you know.  Or…get them for yourself! 😎

You can head over to the Kits Collection to check out ALL the kits that are currently available – that’s the best way to see EVERYTHING!  But..if you just want to go straight to these new ones…here you go! 😎

 

 

And I figured this last week of the year might be a great time to give AWAY a couple of kits!
