I’m so excited to finally share our new July release! It’s filled with products to help you create beautiful backgrounds, interactive cards, elegant foiled accents, and handmade projects you’ll love creating and sharing.
From intricate new Stencils 360™ designs and playful MiniSpins™ to coordinating stamps, dies, foil embellishments, toner designs, and my brand-new 360 Calm & Create™ online course, I hope this collection inspires you to explore new techniques and enjoy every moment at your craft table.
To celebrate launch day, I thought I’d share a new card featuring the Blossom Sprinkles 8″ stencil. I paired the soft floral background with a MiniSpin™ to create a fun interactive surprise. It’s such a simple design, but the little spinning image adds so much charm!
Below you’ll find a closer look at everything that’s new to spark your next project. I can’t wait to see what you create!
After months of designing, testing, creating, and making cards, I’m so excited to finally share a little more preview of what’s arriving this Wednesday, July 29.
This collection has been especially meaningful to create. It brings together intricate 360° stencil designs, coordinating stamps and dies, beautiful interactive elements, and something completely new for Sunbird Spark…
✨ Our very first online course!
I can’t wait to show you everything.
A Collection Designed to Inspire Creativity
This release is all about possibilities.
Whether you love clean and simple cards or detailed layered designs, you’ll discover new ways to create with the Stencils 360°+™ system.
Inside the new release you’ll find:
🌸 Brand new 360° stencils
✨ Coordinating clear stamps and dies
🎡 MiniSpins™ interactive spinners
💛 New layering stencils
💌 Beautiful sentiments and embellishments
One of my favourite things about these products is that they’re designed to work together, but each one also stands beautifully on its own.
Every Card Tells a Different Story
One of the greatest joys of designing new products is seeing how everyone interprets them differently. The same stencil can become a bold geometric background, a delicate floral, or an elegant focal point simply by changing colours, spacing, or layering techniques.
Over the past few weeks, I’ve been having so much fun creating with the new collection. Here are a few of the projects I’ve made so far. I hope they spark ideas for your own creations!
As I was making these samples, I kept discovering new combinations, different spinning intervals, and unexpected colour palettes that completely changed the look of each design.
I hope they inspire you to imagine what you’ll create too.
Introducing Our First Online Course
One of the biggest milestones for Sunbird Spark is something I’ve wanted to create for a long time.
360° Calm & Create™
This isn’t just a cardmaking class.
It’s an invitation to slow down, enjoy the rhythm of creating, and experience how simple repeated patterns can become surprisingly calming.
Throughout the course we’ll create four mandala-inspired projects while exploring themes of:
Balance
Present
Flow
Breathe
Whether you create cards every day or simply want a peaceful creative session, I hope this course becomes something you return to again and again.

At first glance, the bold piano keyboard design instantly catches your eye—but look closer, and you’ll see how thoughtfully everything is layered.
The keyboard was created using the Musical Keyboard die, designed to make slimline cards effortlessly stand out. Its long, clean shape makes it perfect for creating striking focal designs, especially for music-themed projects .
Eileen took it a step further by blending a smooth rainbow gradient behind the keys; transitioning from warm sunset tones into cool teal blues. The result feels like music flowing across the card.
🦸♂️ A Touch of Superhero Magic
What makes this card extra special? The tiny superheroes bringing the scene to life.
The characters come from the My Superhero stamp set; a playful 24-piece clear stamp set perfect for adding personality and storytelling to your projects .
From the flying bunny to the masked bear, these little heroes turn a simple birthday card into a joyful, imaginative moment, like they’re celebrating right along with you.
