Check out these cards made with the new Paper Tag bundle


I was thrilled to get this cute card in my swaps at the Disney trip. It's made by Kylie Henshaw from the UK. 

She used an embossing technique here; sponging colors on the white card stock first and then stamping and heat embossing the image in Black embossing powder.  What a fun card!  The bundle used here is the Paper Tags bundle seen below. 

This next card was made by Sara, the CEO of Stampin' Up!

This card was attached to this neat tote (seen below) that was one of our extra gifts on our Disney trip.  The colors include Pool Party, Lost Lagoon, Pretty Peacock and Strawberry Slush ribbon. The die-cut and greeting are from the Paper Tags bundle seen here.  

The tote was filled with lots of snacks and beverages. But you know how cats are with boxes or totes!  At the first opportunity Sadie jumped in and claimed it.

  • Diagonal Fun Fold with new products! Free project sheet & video too.


    Today I'm sharing a neat fun fold I hadn't made for awhile.  It's a diagonal fold that is fun and easy. 

     

    I used a few new, upcoming products from both the 2025 Spring and the 2025 Sale-a-Bration catalogs.  The greeting & punch are made with the Bright Borders set and coordinating To the Point punch.  The designer paper is the Toadstool Gardens 6" DSP from the SAB catalog.  It's free with any $60 purchase from January 7th – February 28th, 2025.  

    I made over 20 of them for a mail out swap I joined.  The colors include Melon Mambo & Granny Apple Green. 

     

    I share how to make it in the video here and seen below.  Basically it involves trimming off half of one side of the card base, flipping it and adhering it back to the card front.  The only confusing this can be adding your designer paper.  I suggest using a non-directional paper when trying this out.

    Below is the video if you'd like to see how to assemble this card. I also share a pretty Sophisticated Sled project too.

  • How to use the Sophisticated Sled bundle with free project sheet


    We made this pretty card at my December card clubs.  It features the Sophisticated Sled bundle from our Online Exclusives line. 

    I chose White with Boho Blue as my color combination.  The sled is die-cut from the Country Woods DSP. I also used the Painted Trees embossing folder seen here.  I added a bit of Wink of Stella to the trees. 

    I used stamps from the bundle for the greetings & snowflakes. 

    Before I played with the dies I thought they would be difficult to assemble.  But they're a breeze!  I hope you watch the video below for my tips. The skates are genius!  The laces slip into a slit in the skate die-cut for easy assembly.  

    See this gorgeous bundle here.

  • The Color Coach is back!


    If you struggle with coordinating colors the Color Coach can help.  It provides multiple ways to find the perfect combinations. 

    The Color Coach is Stampin' Up!'s version of the color wheel and is based on color theory—the combination of art and science that determines what colors look good together.

    One side of the Color Coach has all current Stampin’ Up! colors (except Neutrals) laid out with a spinning wheel in the center. This center wheel gives you monochromatic, complementary, analogous, and triadic information about our colors. The back explains each of these concepts, plus our range of neutral colors.

    It's $12.50 and can be seen here. 

    For example who would think Pretty Peacock and Pumpkin Pie would go together so well?  They're on the edge of complimentary colors but work wonderfully! 

    Below is a sample of an Analogous color combination.  SU created designer papers with shades of similar colors using our Full of Life DSP in the Annual Catalog. 

    Have a great weekend!
