Since three of the nine gold rings in the kit are small enough to stay up towards the neck of a bottle, you can make three wine bottle tags and still have supplies left for more projects. (I’ll share my other ideas soon.)
All you need to do is create three of the larger ornaments per the kit directions (or with a slightly different combination like I did). Then tie the gold cords extending from each of them to the smaller gold rings.
Write messages on the back sides. Then slide them down over the tops of the beverages you are gifting. You are all set to give a beautiful yet simple-to-put-together gift.
Below is a visual list of the products I used. You can shop for them by clicking the links.

Welcome to our All Star monthly blog hop for the Unbounded Beauty Suite! We are excited to share even MORE ideas than what we are offering in our exclusive Video Class Bundle this month.
I’ve created this “die art” empathy card using every product in this suite collection. If you know what punch art is, then you know why I’m calling it die art. Both are basically the art of using shapes to make new unintended images.
For reference this post from 4/9/23 shows ways to create a bunny and a bee using the now retired Ladybug Punch. And an FYI…I did die-art for my video class project, too! So you’ll want to get your hands on that bundle.
A few hours ago I shared live on YouTube and on Facebook step-by-step directions for creating this card with the suite products and other Stampin’ Up! products shown below in my products list. And now I’m sharing that video here in my blog post. Be sure to watch the video by clicking here (or you can just click on this image below if you are already on my blog post), scroll through the close-up photos that follow, check out the measurements & products list below, and then let me know if you have any questions.
Click here to access and download a printable “measurements & supplies” sheet.
Measurements…
Basic White Thick Cardstock
4-1/4” x 11” scored parallel to the short side at 5-1/2”
Petunia Pop Glimmer Paper
(2) 3/4” x 4-1/4”
Scrap for punching heart
Unbounded Beauty Designer Paper (background)
(2) 1” x 4”
Unbounded Beauty Designer Paper (peach)
Here are more photos of the unique card. Dimensionals are such a great adhesive. That small amount of lift gives just the right amount of shadow.
Here is the inside which is pretty plain. But I still thought I should share. Feel free to fancy it up a bit.
Did you get your hands on this month’s bundle of video classes featuring products in the Unbounded Beauty Suite? Each month’s Video Class Bundle includes photos, imperial and metric measurements, complete product lists, and links to instructional videos for twelve projects designed by our team of Stampin’ Up! demonstrators from around the world. And they are exclusive to those who earn them or purchase them.
I hope you enjoyed what I shared!

Here are a couple more Drawer Boxes that I created with the Humble Home Bundle. This time my boxes feature the beautiful new Regal Winter Designer Paper.
For a complete list of products I used to make these, scroll down to get to my Products list. Each product is linked to where you can find them in my online store.
Here are the basic measurements…
Blackberry Bliss or Night of Navy Cardstock
2-7/8″ x 11″ scored at 3/4″, 3-5/8″, 7-1/4″ and 8-1/16″
4-1/4″ x 4-1/4″ scored on all four sides just under 3/4″
Scrap for punching small heart
Pretty In Pink or Boho Blue Cardstock
2-3/4″ x 2-3/4″ (top layer)
2-5/8″ x 2-5/8″ (inside layer)
Scrap for punching home
Regal Winter Designer Paper
2-5/8″ x 2-5/8″
Basic White Cardstock
2-1/2″ x 2-1/2″
Scrap for punching home
Ribbon
3″
Here is a close-up of the Blackberry Bliss & Pretty In Pink box. I used full Pretty In Pink ink to stamp the large heart on the white house. This punched house is layered onto a punched Pretty In Pink house and then added to the top of the box with Dimensionals. A small Blackberry Bliss heart is glued onto the center of the stamped heart. And I added a Blackberry Bliss Regal Foiled Dot.
And here is a close-up of the Night of Navy & Boho Blue box. I used stamped off Boho Blue ink for the large heart on the white house (notice the house is flipped the other direction this time?). This punched house is layered onto a punched Boho Blue house and then added to the top of the box with Dimensionals. The small heart in the middle is Night of Navy with a Night of Navy Regal Foiled Dot.

Welcome to our monthly APPT blog hop to showcase our August 2024Time for CakePaper Pumpkin kit alternate projects! See what I have to share.
Then check out all the other blogs in the hop for additional creative ideas that my fellow Stampin’ Up! demonstrator friends shared.*
For those of you not familiar with these kits, they get delivered straight to your mailbox in the months of your choice. Inside are all the supplies you need AND the directions for assembling the kit cards/projects designed. Here are the intended cards designed for this August 2024 kit. (Click here for a link to Stampin’ Up!’s how-to video.)
I’ve already shared some other alternate projects using the contents of this kit on August 23rd. Be sure to visit to see all the cards I was able to create with one set of supplies from each of the three kit cards.
Today my projects include three note cards, two fun fold cards, and a 12×12 scrapbook page layout. Lots of stuff, right? Usually I share this many projects with a how-to video. But I can’t fit that in this week. So I’m hoping that my tips and extra photos below will give you all enough information if you wish to recreate any of these. I did use a few extra products outside the actual kit. Those extra items are listed below and linked to where you can find them in my online store.
The great thing about these kits is that after you’ve used up all the consumables, you end up a great stamp sets and inks to keep on using. So let’s focus on the stamp set for these first three note cards. I’ve supplemented those stamps with many of the basic recommended Top Ten Crafting Essentials shown on pages 16 & 17 of the 2024-25 Annual Catalog and also added in the Layering Leaves Stamp Set, the Bough Punch, White Glimmer Paper, Iridescent Pearls, Every Celebration Dies, a Blender Pen and Wink of Stella.
For this first card, I fussy cut sticker scraps from the kit to get the outline of the “Hooray.” And then after adding this to the card put the tiny sticker pieces back in place using the Take Your Pick Tool
I stamped the balloons, and then used a ruler and pen (I had a fun green ball-point ink pen) to add the “strings.” Then I adhered the die-cut glitter word to finish it off. Cute and simple.
For the second one I masked the top and bottom of my Layering Leaves sentiment image, inked it up with Shaded Spruce ink, pulled the tape away and inked up the remaining top and bottom with the Granny Apple Green and Real Red inks to get the tri-color effect.
I created the candle flames with the stamped, punched out, and trimmed down leaves from the Layering Leaves set. After stamping them with Daffodil Delight ink, I used a Blender Pen to add more yellow color within. Then I added Wink of Stella for a bit of shimmer.
For the third notecard I used my Grid Paper as a guide to stamp the longest candle multiple times across the 2-1/4″ x 3-1/2″ piece of Basic White. I used all the remaining colors of ink spots in the Classic Assortment except the Basic Gray. And for the little “glow” image I used the Coastal Cabana color which was lightened by stamping onto scrap paper a couple times first.
My first of my two fun-fold cards is a bridge fold card. The measurements you’ll need are:
Night of Navy Cardstock: 8″ x 4-1/4″ scored in at each end at 1-1/4″ and 2-1/2″
Basic White cardstock (for the back): 2-3/4″ x 4″
Kit candle paper: four tall pieces 1″ x 3-3/4″, one short piece 1-1/2″ x 5-1/2″, and the center front piece 2-3/4″ x 3-3/4″
This photo below shows well where I got the all the pieces from the kit candle paper. The gaps are where the tall 1″ x 3-3/4″ pieces originated.
If you’ve never made a bridge fold card before, the video from my 10/24/17 blog post is a good one to watch. Be sure to stamp the pieces before attaching them. Here are lots of view of the finished card from the front, top, and back and then flattened down in both directions to fit inside an envelope.
The second fun-fold card has a bit more detail. First you’ll want to prepare more candle flames with the Layering Leaves set and Bough Punch. But this time stamp the “flames” in Wild Wheat to coordinate with the kit candle paper (the left over candle paper from the bridge fold card). Stamp this leaves image at least four times to get the 16 candle flames.
The measurements you’ll need for this card are:
Night of Navy Cardstock: 4-1/4″ x 10-3/4″ scored parallel to the short side at 1-1/4″ and 6-1/2″
Basic White cardstock (for the back): 4″ x 5″ for the inside layer
Kit candle paper: 1-7/8″ x 4″
Pink kit card base: 1-1/4″ x 4-1/4″ for the lower front “cake” and 1/2″ x 2-1/4″ flipped over for the sentiment strip
White Glimmer Paper: 3/4″ x 4-1/4″ scrap for die-cutting “frosting” and 9/16″ x 2-3/8″ for sentiment strip layer
Fold the Night of Navy card base into a “matchbook” fold, add the Basic White layer to the inside, and staple shut the bottom 1-1/4″ high flap (rough part of the staples to the front). Add the 1-7/8″ x 4″ kit candle paper to the bottom of the front flap of the card.
FYI…When designing this card I thought I made a mistake, because I initially cut my candle paper (that leftover piece from the last card) to 4″ wide. But then I realized it was a blessing in disguise. Because by using the two remaining scraps I was able to trim them up to overlap the ends and make the candles all within the borders of the card. Yay! So yes, now do that same thing.
Now attach the flames and the sentiment strip.
Adhere the pink “cake” flat to the bottom 1-1/4″ high stapled flap. Adhere the “frosting” with Dimensionals. Attach the pearls.
It’s so fun how the candles appear to be “in” the cake, right?! A matchbook fun-fold card is perfect for this. Now open the front flap…
…stamp the inside sentiment and adhere the tucked in fork.
Getting tired yet? Sorry…I just couldn’t stop creating with this fun kit!
Here is my last idea…my 12×12 scrapbook page layout.
The measurements you’ll need for this project are:
Basic White Cardstock: two sheets of 12″ x 12″
Night of Navy Cardstock: three that are 3-3/4″ x 5-1/2″ and six that are 3-3/4″ x 3-3/4″
Boho Blue Cardstock: <1/4″ x 11″ for the tall candle in the middle of the left page
Kit candle paper: 3-3/4″ x 5-3/4″ on the left page and then the rest of it to on the right page with the white area removed.
Kit “cake” card base: cut into two pieces
Cut the “cake” card in two pieces: 3″ x 5-1/2″ and 5-1/2″ 5-1/2″ and prepare all the other pieces described in the measurements above.
Stamp the long skinny Boho Blue strip to create a tall candle.
Position everything in place as shown and attach. I used a sticker from the kit for the Hooray, but you could die-cut this with the Every Celebration dies if you ran out of stickers. (The white piece under the Petal Pink tag is another tag flipped over.)
All of the Rose Gold cord is tacked down with rolled up kit glue dots. 🙂 Putzy, but worth it.

So I thought I’d create with some of the new goodies that are already in my possession so you could see these products up close and personal. And I came up with some fun little boxes.
I just showed live on YouTube and on Facebook about an hour ago step-by-step directions for creating these cute Drawer Boxes (with Card Tops) from the new Humble Home Bundle, the Choose Happy Stamp Set, Woven Golden Leaves, the Birch Wood Embossing Folder, Red & White Peppermints, and other coordinating Stampin’ Up!® product. And now I’m sharing that video here in my blog post. Be sure to watch thevideo by clicking here (or you can just click on this image below if you are already on my blog post), scroll through the close-up photos that follow, check out the measurements & products list below, and then let me know if you have any questions.
Products I used… See below for a complete list of products linked to where you can find them in my online store.

Are you ready for a mass load of cards? I took the different sentiments from the Saying Something Ephemera Kit and the different images from the Something for Everything Ephemera Kit (one set of each of the images),…
…a full pack each of the Sunny Springs and the Calming Creek Mix & Match Cards/Envelopes, some cardstock for the extra card bases and layers, and some Adhesive-Backed Metallic Gems and… I created 40 cards total!
I only needed a half pack of each of the ephemera kits because you get two of everything in each. All the Mix & Match cards I kept as is. So I had 10 card bases set to go. Then I added 30 more card bases from Basic White, Basic Black & Basic Gray cardstock. All the Mix & Match envelopes I cut down to become patterned paper layers. Here are the measurements.
Measurements…
Basic White Cardstock
(10) 5-1/2″ x 8-1/2″ scored parallel to the short side at 4-1/4″
(14) 4″ x 5-1/4″ (inside layers on eight gray and six black cards – the ones with the 1-5/8″ x 5-1/4″ & 3-1/4″ x 5-1/4″ envelope layers)
(6) 4-1/8″ x 5-3/8″ (inside layers on two gray and four black cards – the ones with the 4-1/8″ x 5-3/8″ envelope layers)
Basic Gray Cardstock
(10) 5-1/2″ x 8-1/2″ scored parallel to the short side at 4-1/4″
Basic Black Cardstock
(10) 5-1/2″ x 8-1/2″ scored parallel to the short side at 4-1/4″
Mix & Match envelopes
4-1/8″ x 5-3/8″ from each front (10)
1-5/8″ x 5-1/4″ from what is left over of the flap after cutting the front (10)
3-1/4″ x 5-1/4″ from each back (10)
Because I cut up the Mix & Match envelopes to use as paper, I’ve included a full pack of 40 Basic White Medium Envelopes below in my Products list. You’re gonna need those. (See below for a complete list of products I used to make these cards. All products are linked to where you can find them in my online store.)
Here are the cards I made with the full Mix & Match card bases.
Here are the cards I made with the 4-1/8″ x 5-3/8″ Mix & Match envelope layers.
Here are the cards I made with the 3-1/4″ x 5-1/4″ Mix & Match envelope layers.
And here are the cards I made with the 1-5/8″ x 5-1/4″ Mix & Match envelope layers.
In the rest of the photos you can see the full cards outside and in.
I’ve sorted them by the Mix & Match card and envelope pairs. If you see a little shadow under an ephemera piece, I’ve attached it to the card with Dimensionals or Mini Dimensionals.
You can also see where I’ve added the Adhesive-Backed Metallic Gems. Not every card has them, but you would certainly have enough from one pack to embellish a couple more cards.
Some ephemera such as the “hey” and “friend” pieces needed to be adhered with glue. So I squeezed out a bit of Multipurpose Liquid Glue onto a Silicone Sheet and used a sponge to pounce the glue lightly on the back sides to make the words sticky everywhere.
One of my favorites is this bird and feather card. Most of the images and sentiments were pretty easy to match up.
I’m pretty happy with almost every card. But I have to admit, it was a challenge to put the images and words together when it came down to just having a few pieces left to work with. The Thanks and Yee Haw cards shown below are ones that I may have done differently. Hahaha!
But it was a fun challenge over all! My goal was to use up all the ephemera pieces that I could and not have any left overs.
I think I did. But I can’t remember! Hahaha. If you decide to recreate these cards, message me to let me know which pieces (if any) I didn’t end up using.
Isn’t it crazy all the variety that you get with these ephemera packs?
Which cards are your favorites?
For all you demonstrators, this could be a great class idea, too! And guess what? You’ll all want to get your hands on these products so you can use them for the free World Card Making Day virtual event that Stampin’ Up! is hosting on Saturday, October 5th.
During this event, you’re invited to craft along and make five simple cards. If you’d like to participate, you may want to have the following supplies on hand so you can recreate the cards being demonstrated.
There are new ephemera packs and a new set of cards/envelopes that will debut in the September-December 2024 Mini Catalog on September 4th. I hope to create with them and share soon!
Thanks for stopping by to see what I had to share today.
