The Stamps of Life April 2021 card kit was released on April 15 and I’m super excited to share with you the 10 cards I made with the kit, but first, let’s talk a little about the kit…. This kit corresponds to the monthly stamp and die set called Birdbath2Stamp as well as the add-on set, MoreBirdbath2Stamp. Here’s a picture of everything that is included in the April Card Kit.
The April card kit is called the “Remember This” collection. The color pallet for this month is Cherry, Bubblegum, Lemonade, Mint Chip, Blue Jay, Sky, Pixie, Grape, and Powdered Sugar. This kit comes with 12 cardstock sheets — one in each color plus four Powdered Sugar cardstock sheets.
The paper pad is the Remember This Collection and comes with 24 double-sided sheets of patterned paper. It also includes several birdbaths, birds, and butterflies that can be die cut with the shadow dies from the Birdbath2Stamp Dies. In total, there are 8 birdbaths, 24 birds, 12 butterflies, and 2 sets of bushes that can be die cut from the paper pad to be used on your cards. These die cuts make for quick and easy cards because they are already colored for you!
The card kit also comes with a Remember This word die, epoxy dots, flower rhinestone stickers, chipboard, two ribbon, a sentiment stamp set with two small birds and matching dies, idea card, a set of envelopes, and a large storage envelope to put everything in. There is also an extra FREEBIE die from Stephanie. Woo Hoo!
Below, I have a video showing the unboxing of the card kit and my design process for all 10 cards I made with the card kit. I also have links to all of the supplies used for my cards at the very end of this post.
