Cute as a Bug fun fold kit to go or PDF tutorial

January 16, 2026

Here’s the second kit to go I’m offering in January; the Cute as a Bug fun fold card kit:

Stampin’ Up! knocked it out of the park with this CUTE designer series paper! *see it online here It’s unique color combinations and whimsical critters make creating with it so enjoyable.

I created 5 different fun fold layouts and doubled them for a total of 10 unique cards.

The PDF tutorial includes step by step directions, photos, measurements and a supplies list. I also recorded a video tutorial exclusively to those who purchase it or the kit to go. This tutorial is just $16 and can be seen here.

The pre-cut kit to go can be seen here. Reserve it now and it will be mailed out later this month (likely around the 22nd of January).

The kit includes the following: 1/2 pkg of the Cute as a Bug DSP, a share of the Ladybug Garden epoxy gems, the Old Olive rick-rack ribbon and exclusive video link. It also includes 10 pre-cut cards! Everything is cut for you except your new designer paper. You’ll use the measurements in the PDF tutorial to do that; it’s easy! Then just assemble and add your stamped images to the greeting pieces provided. (Any greetings will work; feel free to use what you have).

My kits are super easy to complete. I get tons of compliments and repeat customers each month.

Need a new Stampin’ Up! Catalog? Plus an accordion fun fold card with video & free project sheet!

March 28, 2023
It's an exciting time for those who love Stampin' Up! products….. the new 2023-24 Annual Catalog can be seen online tomorrow (Wednesday) by current Demonstrators.

We get to see the newest 2023-25 In Colors, which current colors are leaving, which colors are filling in our color lines (it usually includes some returning In Colors and some brand new colors)!

Save

Wednesday I'll be announcing which colors are leaving along with the retiring list of the current/retiring Annual catalog products so you stay informed. Remember that these retiring items are while supplies last. Do NOT WAIT to order. I have many people who are disappointed that they missed ordering items they really, really wanted.

Save

*If you do not have a current Stampin' Up! Demonstrator and want a new Annual Catalog let me know by Thursday, March 30th. They are free to my current customers (those who've ordered from me within the past 6 months) or just $5 for me to send you one. You can pay via PayPal or Venmo.

The last Monday of each month I have a 'Stamp with Me' Live on my Facebook page here. A day or so before the Live I share the project we're making so those who want to stamp along with me can do so. Others can watch and create later.

After the video I provide a post where everyone who makes the project can share their version. All who do are entered in a drawing for a free prize from me. Click here to see all of the Floating Panel cards from February's Live.

This month I chose another fun fold card – an accordion card that really shows off both sides of your Designer Paper!

Save

I used the Awash in Beauty designer paper seen here. I also used the True Beauty bundle as well. See it here.

Save

The greeting tag is a die-cut from the Tailor Made Tags seen here. The ovals are from the Framed Florets dies seen here.

I created a free project sheet for this card too. Download Accordion DSP card project; March 2023

Here are the measurements:
- DSP 5 1/4" X 11 3/4" – score at 1 3/4", 4 3/4" and 7 3/4".
- Card base 4 1/4" X 5 1/2"
- inside stamped layer 2" X 5 1/4"
Save

I added an inside White layer to stamp and sign on. I used Melon Mambo & Old Olive markers to ink the flower bud image before I stamped and die-cut it.

Growth Takes Time with Radiating Stitches dies; & free project sheet!

March 27, 2023

On last week's FB Live I shared three cards featuring the new Online Exclusive products. A few are already out of stock but they are ordering more. You can see them all here.

Today's project features two of them. Radiating Stitches dies and Growth Takes Time stamp set.

Save

I chose to use the Sun Prints designer paper along with a Navy, Gray Granite & White color theme.

Heads up! The Sun Prints Designer Paper is on low inventory; I wonder if they'll run out of stock soon.

Save

I stamped the tree and greeting (Charming Sentiments) using Night of Navy ink. I did not color in the tree; sometimes it's okay to keep it simple. The ribbon here is the Navy bordered ribbon in the Spring catalog; seen here.  It's soft and easy to work with.

I used three of the Radiating Stitches dies on this card. See them here.

Save

I love trees so it was an easy decision to purchase the Growth Takes Time stamp set. See it here.

Two-Tone Flora with Elegant Borders dies & a FREE project sheet!

March 24, 2023
In preparing my make & takes for my March Team meeting I knew I wanted to focus on the new Online Exclusives. I looked at the samples online for the Elegant Borders dies seen here and found this card made by Stampin' Up!'s artists:

Save

I decided to use the Two-Tone Floral bundle instead of the Pansies and came up with this card:

Save

Using samples from our printed catalog or online store can make stamping easier. Use a layout, technique or color combo as your inspiration. My colors include Calypso Coral, Petal Pink, Soft Succulents and Poppy Parade.

Isn't that elegant border die gorgeous?! I also used to for the envelope flap edge. See the Elegant Border dies here.

Save

The upper and lower pieces of DSP are from the Pretty Prints; soon to retire from the Annual catalog. See it here.

Save

It includes some of my favorite colors – Bermuda Bay, Blackberry Bliss, Calypso Coral and Evening Evergreen.

I used the Stamparatus to stamp the die-cut flowers and leaves from the Two-Tone Flora bundle. Be sure to watch the video to see how.

Download the project sheet.

Measurements:
- Calypso Coral card base 5 1/2" X 8 1/2"
