Love & Courage Sunflower

October 09, 2025

Every year Stampin' Up! creates a product to be part of the Making A Difference Campaign, this year it is the Love & Courage stamp set. The stamp set was designed to honor those fighting breast cancer, with a bold sunflower image and caring sentiments. This set can be adapted for anyone fighting cancer. Stampin' Up! will donate $3 to breast cancer organizations for each stamp set sold. Look at page 4 of the September - December 2025 Mini Catalog for more information.

Saturday, we created this card using this stamp set.

It is a simple flap fold card and using a Stamparatus makes creating the center image easy. I cut the stamp in half and placed each half on a separate stamping plate. If you do not have a Stamparatus, any stamp positioner will work.

Center the die cut and its stamped image on top of the Pecan Pie card stock and adhere.
