Exciting news, kit lovers!

This month Stampin’ Up! has added two brand-new all-inclusive kits to the Kits Collection: Shaded Petals and Washes of Gratitude.

And you know I’m always just a little bit excited when new kits arrive.

If you love quick, easy crafting with everything included in one box, these could be right up your alley.

Shaded Petals Kit

The Shaded Petals Kit is a little different from previous kits, and I think that’s what makes it so fun.

Want your floral projects to look effortlessly hand-painted without actually needing to be a watercolour expert? This kit does the hard work for you.

Simply layer the precut petals, add soft shading with the included Sponge Daubers, and finish with coordinating sentiments. The result? Beautiful dimensional flowers that look far more complicated than they really are.

Perfect for cards, tags, and little giftables.

Kit Details

  • Makes 9 cards (3 each of 3 designs)
  • Folded card size: 10.8cm x 14cm
  • Colours include Calypso Coral, Daffodil Delight, Garden Green, Gold and Highland Heather
  • Sentiments included in Dutch, English, French and German

What’s Included?

  • Calypso Coral and Highland Heather Stampin’ Spots
  • Step-by-step instructions
  • 9 printed envelopes
  • Precut paper pieces
  • Foil sentiments
  • Embellishments
  • Sponge Daubers
  • Adhesive

I love that this one gives you a fun technique feel without needing to drag out your whole craft room.

Washes of Gratitude Kit

If soft watercolour florals are more your style, the Washes of Gratitude Kit might be calling your name.

This kit is all about creating thoughtful thank-you cards with gorgeous watercolour-style designs and delicate floral layering. It has a softer, elegant feel and would be lovely to keep on hand for those moments when you need to send a heartfelt thank-you.

One feature I really love? The coordinating envelopes have a printed inner flap, which makes the finished cards feel that little bit extra special.

Because let’s be honest… pretty envelopes make happy mail even better.

Kit Details

  • Makes 10 cards (5 each of 2 designs)
  • Folded card size: 14cm x 10.8cm
  • Colours include Calypso Coral, Darling Duckling, Flirty Flamingo, Peaceful Pine and Secret Sea
  • Sentiments included in English, French and German

What’s Included?

  • Step-by-step instructions
  • 10 printed envelopes
  • 10 printed card bases
  • Printed precut paper and vellum pieces
  • Sequin embellishments
  • Adhesive

This one feels like the perfect kit for anyone who loves soft florals and easy elegant crafting.

Which One Would I Choose?

That’s the tricky part.

Shaded Petals feels a little more playful and technique-based, while Washes of Gratitude leans into soft, elegant, heartfelt crafting.

Honestly, I can see a place for both.

And if history tells me anything… I’ll probably “need” both too.

Missed Last Month’s Kits? They’re Still Available!

If the new June kits aren’t quite your style, don’t forget the May releases are still available too.

And they’re both still worth a look.

Pretty Party Kit

If you’ve got birthdays, anniversaries, or celebrations coming up, the Pretty Party Kit is full of bright cheerful colours and party vibes.

Think coral, pink and purple balloons with touches of gold foil confetti for that extra sparkle.

It’s basically celebration in a box.

Includes:

  • 9 cards
  • Stamp set
  • Clear block
  • Cajun Craze Stampin’ Spot
  • Printed envelopes
  • Adhesive

Serene Scenes Kit

The Serene Scenes Kit has a completely different feel—calm, peaceful, and perfect for those harder-to-make masculine cards.

It’s ideal for Father’s Day, congratulations, thank-yous, or simply having a card on hand when you need one.

The watercolour-style landscapes make these feel thoughtful without being fussy.

And I love that the sentiments are designed for both inside and outside the card.

That’s one less thing to think about.

Includes:

  • 9 cards
  • Stamp set
  • Clear block
  • Gray Granite Stampin’ Spot
  • Printed envelopes
  • Precut paper pieces
  • Adhesive

Why I Love the Kits Collection

One of the things I love most about the Kits Collection is how simple it makes crafting.

They’re perfect for:

  • Brand-new crafters just starting out
  • Busy crafters short on time
  • Experienced crafters wanting quick and easy projects

No measuring.
No cutting.
No hunting through your stash for supplies.

Just open the box and create.

And honestly… sometimes that’s exactly the kind of crafting session we need.

Don’t Forget Paper Pumpkin!

And if you love kits, don’t forget about Paper Pumpkin.

Paper Pumpkin is Stampin’ Up!’s monthly subscription kit that lands right on your doorstep, with shipping included.

Each month is a surprise (which is half the fun) and it’s perfect for anyone who loves quick and easy creative time.

Subscriptions close on the 10th of each month, so if you’d like this month’s kit, make sure you subscribe before then.

It’s a little bit like crafty happy mail… and who doesn’t love that?

Remember to check the Last Chance List

In my previous post I highlighted that a number of my favourite kits are currently on the Last Chance section see if your favourite kits are retiring. So be sure to check the list. I’d be sad if you missed out. I’ve included these as well as the four kits mentioned above at the bottom of this post. So just click the picture and that will take you straight to my online store.

Until next time… happy creating!
