If you’ve ever tried to stay on top of birthdays, thank you notes, and all the little life moments that deserve a card—you know it can feel a little overwhelming. You’ve got the best intentions, but life moves fast, and your beautiful stash of cards sometimes ends up… just sitting there.
I get it. That happens to me too.
And now I am working to find a better rhythm. A simpler way to actually make, sort, and send cards with more ease and less guilt.
Let me introduce you to something I’m going to try.
It’s part creativity, part connection, and part peace of mind. A little weekend crafting, a spot to keep finished cards organized, and a soft nudge to actually send them out.
Stampin’ Up’s new Handmade & Heartfelt Kit totally fits this idea. It’s not just a craft kit; it’s a whole experience packed into one beautifully coordinated box:
- 10 cards in 5 designs
- A built-in card organizer
- Sentiment stamps like “Hello Sunshine,” “Thinking of You,” and “Wishing You the Best”
- Soft, calming colors (like Lost Lagoon and Petal Pink)
- Precut embellishments and an ink spot so you can start creating right away
It’s designed to help you slow down and reconnect—to creativity, to thoughtfulness, and to those little moments that really matter.
And here’s something even sweeter: this kit will be featured in World Card Making Day on October 4th! Stampin’ Up is hosting a FREE global online event where crafters of all levels can join in, craft together, and celebrate the joy of handmade cards.
If you’ve been feeling the tug to reconnect with your creativity—or even just get back into the habit of sending real mail—this could be your gentle reset. I know, I know postage can be expensive. These cards are designed to only require one forever stamp. Isn’t that awesome!
Whether you grab this kit or something from your stash, I hope you you’ll register for World Card Making Day…make space to create something that brings you joy and connection. Plus there is something special from Stampin’ Up! for those who join (FREE is always for us, right?).
Because handmade always means more.
