Kim made this amazing card for our April Team swap:

She combined new and current products for this beautiful card cased from Karen Hadler. That beautiful textured flower is from an upcoming bundle called Opulent Oasis. It includes a new die that textures; it’s called Textured Impression dies. I’ll share more details on this new product soon. It will be released on May 5th in the 2026 May-August catalog.

The designer paper is called Lovely & Beautiful and can be seen here. The pretty leaf die-cut is from the Nature’s Symphony dies.
Here’s how it looks once opened:

So many layers!! The card stock colors include Old Olive, Petal Pink and Fresh Freesia.

Measurements:

– Olive card base 11″ X 4 1/4″ score at 2 3/4″ & 5 1/2″, second piece – 9″ X 3 34″ scored at 3″ & 6″

  Last weekend we held our monthly Team swap and Lori made this super cute card. 

  

  It's a vertical book binding card fold.  I love how this fold allows you to show off so much fun products like the DSP and the embossing folder. Her turtle & balloon are fussy cut from the Turtle-y Cute DSP.  

  

  She used the Turtle-y Cute suite seen here. So many fun elements! Unfortunately the Turtle Textures embossing folder is currently unavailable.  

  

  Measurements:

  • Base 8 1/2" X 5 1/2" score 1 3/4", 3 1/4" & 4 1/4"
  • yellow is 2 5/8" X 5 1/2"
  • green textured 2 3/8" X 5 1/4"
  • DSP 2 pieces at 3/4" X 5 1/4"
  • white inside 2 1/8" X 5 1/4"

• Fun Team swaps with new In Colors!

  May 13, 2025

  ---

  Today my husband and I are off to Orlando for the 2025 Stampin' Up! incentive trip.  We're pretty excited to be there and see all of our SU friends. *less than 1% of SU demonstrators earn the incentive trip each year and I am so blessed to be one of them!  Thank you all for your support!!

  Sharon made this super fun card for our May Team swap. She used all 5 new In Colors!

  

  The circle die-cuts are from the Spotlight on Nature dies seen here.  These dies are a 'must have' in my opinion.  I love how she used them as the focal point of her card.  She was inspired by a purchased card she received and is using this card to introduce the new in colors to her customers.  She used the Plaster Painting embossing folder on the White layer. 

  She added even more dies to the inside!  

  

  ~~~

  Next is a pretty card made by Marla. She chose to feature the Beautiful Gallery suite seen here.  

  

  She die-cut the pretty leaves with the Beautiful Motifs dies seen here. These dies are pretty special as some of them only cut out partially which allows for some neat effects. 

  Then she cut a frame from the Gallery Blooms dies seen here.  Once she added the Secret Sea frame over the Cloud Cover die-cut she pulled a few of the leaves to the front, over the frame edge.  Genius!  

  The designer papers are from the Beautiful Gallery 6 X 6" DSP stack seen here.  And even her gems are from this suite! 

  Here's the inside view.  

  

  Measurements:

  • Card base – Vanilla – 8 1/2" X 5 1/2" scored at 1 1/2" & 4 1/4". 
  • DSP on the inside left 2 5/8" X 5 1/2", on the right 1 5/8" X 5 1/2" 
  • Cloud Cover layer is 2 1/2" X 4"
