Stampin' Up! New Annual Catalog Launched!

Hey there! Welcome to my refreshed blog! I've been away from regular blogging for more than a year (maybe almost two? I'm afraid to look) but in spite of that several of you have still been checking on me and ordering from me, and for that I am grateful.

LOTS of stuff, good and bad, has been happening in my life during this time, including my youngest daughter and her family of 9 (she and her hubby, plus 7 kiddos) lived with us for almost a year and a half. The experience was both extremely good, (I loved spending that much time with my grandchildren!) but while not bad, it was stressful at times. I was just too distracted to stamp much, let alone blog.

The family has been moved into their newly-built home since September, and after a busy holiday season and babysitting schedule for some of my additional grandchildren, I am finally ready to get back to stamping more and sharing with you. I had my 19 year-old granddaughter, Ava, create my blog refresh, and I am excited to share it and the 2025/26 New Annual Catalog with you!

By now most of you who have been ordering from me during the past year should have received your copy. Stampin' Up! mails them for me, but they do use Bulk Rate, so I am aware some of you are still looking for yours in your mailbox. If you have not received yours from me, please just comment here on the blog or send me an email: [email protected]

You can also comment below or email me with your "MUST HAVES ASAP" from the catalog. I can help you set up your online account in my store if you don't have one already. When you do go to place your order, be sure to click the "Get Started" box that will come up when you first enter your account. Stampin' Up! recently changed their Rewards Program from "Host Rewards" to "Rewards for Everyone". This means anytime your order is at least $20 you will start earning Rewards in the amount of 10%. Your Rewards will be kept safely in your online account until you are ready to use them (each reward expires one year after you place the order) You can use them as you go or save them up for a big order, it's all up to you! So many of my stampers are excited about being able to benefit from their own orders! While I will still be doing workshops and stamping classes, now everyone will get to benefit from their own orders.

Next, I do have a card I created recently with New Annual Catalog goodies:

This card is pretty easy. I used both dry embossing with the Stampin' Cut & Emboss Machine as well as heat embossing using Versamark, Basics Embossing Powder, and the Heat Tool.

I used the Beautiful Gallery Suite Collection found on pages 52-57 of the New Annual Catalog. Have you seen this beautiful suite?

I have included in the Product List below all of the possible supplies you can order to create this card. You will not need to order everything on the list, just what you want. If you want to go the easy route, simply click the "Add All To Cart" button at the bottom of the list, then delete what you don't want to order from the cart in my Online Store:

Stampin' Up! Nested Friends!

Hey there! I am very happy to be back today to share with you a card I created with the Nested Friends Bundle of stamps and dies:

I adhered a strip of designer series paper to a layer of Pear Pizzazz card stock, then embossed with the Cane Weave 3D embossing folder for the background of the card.  The nest layers is cut from Crumb Cake and Kraft 6 x 6 card stock, accented by Pear Pizzazz leaves. All of the die cuts are created with the Nested Friends dies. I splattered the eggs, cut from Basic White card stock, with Tahitian Tide ink flicked from a Tahitian Tide Stampin' Write Marker.

I cut the Tahitian Tide-stamped greeting, from the Nested Friends stamp set, with a Sending die.

Inside images are also all from Nested Friends. This stamp set is not on the Last Chance List, but is also not shown in the new Annual Catalog. It will be available in my online store after the new catalog goes live on May 2nd.

Stampin' Up! Seaside Bay Beginner Card!

Hey there! My timing is still off, but at least I'm getting a post out there for today!

The card I want to share with you today is the beginner version with the Seaside Bay stamp set. When I was thinking of how I wanted to make my three cards to share with my team (and with you!) I planned to stamp directly on the By the Bay 6" x 6" Designer Paper, which I received in my first pre-order back in early November. However, I couldn't find the paper anywhere, so I decided to just use the stamps from the set along with the Oceanfront stamp set to create my cards, which is more of a beginner technique anyway!

I started with a Very Vanilla Thick Card Stock base, 8 1/2" x 5 1/2", scored and folded at 4 1/4". I used the "portrait" presentation as shown. I then did my stamping on a 4" x 5 1/4" layer of regular (thinner) Very Vanilla. I stamped Oceanfront images with Pale Papaya, Balmy Blue, and Crumb Cake ink to look like the ocean, sunrise, and sand. I stamped the sandpiper (from Seaside Bay) with Crumb Cake ink, then stamped him again over the first stamping with Soft Suede ink because he was too pale. I didn't get the second stamping exactly over the first, but I decided I liked it that way because these little birds never stay still for long and the "blur" looks like he is moving. I stamped the sea grass (from Oceanfront) with Pear Pizzazz ink. I stamped the sand image from Seaside Bay all around the outside edge of the layer.

"Heartfelt Sympathy", stamped with Soft Suede, is also found in the Seaside Bay set.

"thinking of you" is from the Season of Chic stamp set. The baby sandpipers are stamped with Crumb Cake.

I will be back tomorrow, hopefully in the morning, with the Casual stamper Seaside Bay card!

Stampin' Up! Soft Seedlings!

Hey there! Today I have a fall-ish card I created with the Soft Seedlings stamp set! I love fall card making! My favorite colors are the dark rich colors  of fall, and I love creating cards with them. The colors I used today are Soft Suede, Pumpkin Pie, Cajun Craze, and Very Vanilla.

I used a super-easy technique to combine Pumpkin Pie and Cajun Craze on the leaves. I stamped the leaf and seeds with Pumpkin Pie, then dragged the Cajun Craze ink pad directly on the inked stamp before stamping on the Very Vanilla layer.

I accented the leaf and the greeting with Champagne Rhinestone Basic Jewels. I added 1/2" x 5 1/4" strips of  Metallic & Shimmer 6 x 6" Specialty paper to the top & bottom of the vanilla strip before adding to the card front with dimensionals.

Inside I breathed on the leaf stamp to re-moisten the leftover ink to stamp in the opposite corners. The Cajun Craze stamped sentiment is also from Soft Seedlings.

I created a second version with a design added to the right side with one of the Artistic Mix Decorative Masks and a Blending Brush with Pumpkin Pie ink.

I think I probably should have used a lighter touch with my Blending Brush so the "hello" would show up a little more. I'll remember that next time I use the masks over a greeting.

It's hard to see in the pictures, but I embossed a 4" x 5 1/4" layer of Soft Suede with the Leaf Fall 3D embossing folder for both cards. One card I left the embossed layer as it came out of the folder . . .

and the other card I used the Blending Brush to add Pumpkin Pie ink to make the raised design show up better. Can you tell which card is which? Which one do you prefer?

Stampin' Up! Simply Fabulous from Julia!

Hey there! Today I have a simply fabulous card from my friend from my Demonstrator Council days, Julia Mazur! Julia used the Simply Fabulous stamp set with 2022-2024 In Colors to create a super-simple but wonderful card!

This card requires no Stampin' Cut & Emboss or fancy embellishments. The colors she used of Starry Sky, Parakeet Party, and Sweet Sorbet do all the work!

This is such a great all-purpose card! Julia used only images from the Simply Fabulous set with Starry Sky, Sweet Sorbet, and Parakeet Party ink. She used a couple of the designs from the 2022-2024 In Color Designer Series Paper, and put it all on a Starry Sky card base. This card didn't need much in the way of embellishments, so she just added a bow tied with Sweet Sorbet Baker's Twine and adhered with a mini glue dot!

The Simply Fabulous stamps are photopolymer (clear) which makes them easy to line up!

She even added fun stamping to the front of the envelope! Love it!

Stampin' Up! Apple Harvest!

Hey there! Today I have the full Apple Harvest card I shared a sneak peek of yesterday. I used the Apple Harvest Bundle (stamp set & dies, available while-supplies-last or until September 30th) with Gingham Cottage Designer Paper. I used a new-t0-me-fold, the center pop-out fold, shared recently by Wendy Cranford with a card base of Garden Green!

 After stamping the apple branch and blossoms with Tuxedo Black ink I then used Real Red, Shaded Spruce, Soft Suede, So Saffron, and Flirty Flamingo Stampin' Blends Markers to color. After cutting out with the coordinating Apple Blossoms die, I colored around the edges with a Light Gray Granite Stampin' Blends and added touches of Clear Wink of Stella to the redness of the apples.

I stamped the greeting, included in the Apple Harvest set, with black ink and then cut with the label die included in the Apple Blossoms dies. I added a small bow tied with Black & White 1/4" Gingham Ribbon.

There are so many pretty images in the Apple Blossom set to color!

After stamping and coloring the largest apple image I used the Gray Granite Stampin' Blends to line around it. I also ran the same marker around the outside of the sentiment layer to give the look of another layer. I decided to leave the sentiment layer free of any words so I can add a personal note later.

Here are the clickable links for the card supplies found in my online store. Remember, the Apple Harvest Bundle and the Apple Blossoms Dies are only available while supplies last!

Stampin' Up! Dragonfly Garden from Martha!

Hey there! We are still waiting on Alisa's baby to make his appearance! I know a lot of girls these days allow themselves to be induced as soon as the doctor will schedule it, but Alisa has always had a different approach. She believes it is better for her and her baby to wait until the baby is ready to come. Now, granted, she has always had uncomplicated deliveries. I was unable to be present for her last two, Cyndal was born the morning Mark & I got off the boat from a Stampin' Up! Alaska cruise, and Avara was born during Covid lockdown. If all goes as planned I will be able to be present for Atreyu's birth. I was in the room for Oakley, Lando, and Ivory's births, and each one was so special. Alisa's doctor has stated that all babies are born by 42 weeks and 6 days and yesterday was 42 weeks, so come on Atreyu!

Note: This post may be my last for a couple of weeks, or my posts may be sporadic during that time. I will be busy helping with Alisa's older 5, as well as cooking and laundry. I will be sleeping at her house on the couch, and her internet is not good as she currently lives out in the "boonies" in a metal-sided and roofed house. So please don't give up on checking my blog!

The card I'm sharing today is one I received from a member of my team, Martha Swift. Martha is sweet lady and an exceptionally classy stamper. She used the Dragon Fly Garden stamp set and Dragonfly Punch for her creation:

Martha created a frame by cutting designer series paper with a Stitched Rectangle Die, adhered a window sheet to the back of the paper, then mounted it on the card front with the white stamped layer underneath, with Foam Adhesive Strips. She used Rich Razzleberry and Mint Macaron Stampin' Write Markers on the flower image to get both colors with one stamping. She also stamped and punched the Dragonfly with the Dragonflies Punch to mount on the stamped white layer with dimensionals.

The greeting, also stamped with Rich Razzleberry ink, is also from the Dragonfly Garden set.

Stampin' Up! Butterfly Kisses Sunny Splash!

Hey there! My card today is my last in the series with the Butterfly Kisses 6 x 6 Designer Series Paper pack. I felt like these two prints together had a tropical look to them, so I decided to combine them with the Sunny Splash stamp set!

I stamped the swimsuit on Basic White with Parakeet Party ink, then cut with the Stylish Shapes oval die. I set the outside white ring aside for a future project and then cut Calypso Coral with the same die to use add the frame around the suit. I added the suit oval with dimensionals and the outside frame with tiny slivers of dimensionals. I added an Iridescent Rhinestone for some bling on the suit.

For the background I adhered two strips of Butterfly Kisses designer, the flowered print is 2" x 5", and the Parakeet Party diagonal lined print is 1 3/4" x 5". I embossed the layers with the Cascading Ruffles 3D embossing folder before adhering to the card front. I added a couple more Iridescent Rhinestones for a bit more sparkle.

I stamped the greeting with Calypso Coral ink on a 3/4" x 2 5/8" Basic White strip, then cut one end into banner points with Paper Snips. I adhered this also with dimensionals.

Inside I embossed the Parakeet Party layer with the Cascading Ruffles folder again, adhered, then added a 1" wide strip of Butterfly Kisses to a white layer stamped with the sentiment with Calypso Coral ink. I then used a Scalloped Contours Die to cut the sentiment layer before adhering. I stamped another sentiment from Sunny Splash on the envelope flap.

Stampin' Up! Tri-Accordian Fold Lovely You!

Hey there! Today I have a tri-accordion fold card for you, created with the Lovely You stamp set and Butterfly Kisses 6 x 6 Designer Series Paper! This fold is perfect for the Butterfly Kisses Designer Paper, as it has so many pretty and coordinating prints to choose from! To create this fold, you start with a card base (mine is Fresh Freesia) of 5 1/2" x 11, scored at 4 1/4", 7", and 9 3/4".

I stamped the greeting from Lovely You with Calypso Coral ink, then cut with a Fabulous Frames die. This die cuts in two pieces, the smooth oval you see here as well as an outer oval that looks stitched. I decided to just use the smooth oval. After cutting I used Parakeet Party and Fresh Freesia Stampin' Write Markers to ink the flowers and stems to stamp around the words. I don't use my markers enough! Ever since I started purchasing the Stampin' Blends Alcohol Markers I haven't used my Stampin' Write Markers much, but they are perfect for adding color directly to red rubber cling stamps! After I stamped the greeting oval and cut it out, I adhered to the middle fold of the card with dimensionals, overlapping the edge of the front fold to help hold the card together. I added a bow tied with Fresh Freesia 3/8" Open Weave Ribbon and a Iridescent Rhinestone to finish off the front.

Inside I added a 4" x 5 1/4" layer of Butterfly Kisses Designer Paper, then cut Basic White with a Scalloped Contours die to stamp with more Lovely You images.

I used the same marker-direct-to-image technique to stamp the envelope to coordinate with the card.

Stampin' Up! Hope & Prayer!

Hey there! Today's card is a bright and cheerful "thinking of you" card with the new Hope & Prayer stamp set and Butterfly Kisses 6" x 6" Designer Paper. I let the designer paper prints I chose determine the colors of the card: Basic White, Parakeet Party, Calypso Coral, and Fresh Freesia.

The Basic White Thick card base is 8 1/2" x 5 1/2", scored & folded at 4 1/4".

The Parakeet Party layer on the front and the inside you will see later is 4" x 5 1/4"

The Butterfly Kisses designer paper sections are:

2 1/4" x 3 1/4"

2 1/4" x 1 3/4"

1 1/2" x 1 3/4"

1 1/2" x 3 1/4"

I cut butterflies (I do not own the coordinating Best Butterflies stamp set yet) from coordinating Butterfly Kisses designer paper using Brilliant Wings dies. I adhered with a glue dot and added a Parakeet Party In Color Matte Decorative Dot.

I stamped a phrase from Hope & Prayer with Calypso Coral ink, punched with the Double Oval Punch, and adhered with dimensionals.

 I cut the smaller butterfly from Butterfly Kisses designer paper with another Brilliant Wings die. I added another Parakeet Party In Color Matte Decorative Dot just like I did on the larger butterfly.

Inside I stamped another sentiment from Hope & Prayer with Calypso Coral ink on the 3 1/2" x 4 3/4" Basic White layer. I cut another small butterfly and added with tiny dots of liquid glue.
