I chose to feature the stunning Season of Green & Gold specialty designer series paper seen here online. It's filled with shades of green with gold foil accents and is part of our Online product line.

I cased my friend Susie Wood who made the card on the left below:

She used the Regal Flora designer paper in Cherry Cobbler with Blackberry Bliss. So very pretty! Find more projects by my talented friend from Iowa here on her blog.

I love this neat fold!

Details:

The pretty gold die-cut is from the Peaceful Season bundle seen here.
The greeting is from the Something Fancy stamp set seen here
The leaf die-cuts are from the Delicate Forest dies seen here

Look at the extra details inside too. Wedding cards are fun because you can go over the top a bit! This gorgeous card will be given to my youngest son who's getting married this week. I'm so thrilled for him and his fiance'. We're excited to welcome her into our family!

It used a pieces of designer paper measuring 12" X 5 1/4" that is adhered to a card base of 4 1/4" X 5 1/2". It's scored at 2", 4", 8" and 10". Then the corners are folded down. Here's the simple template I drew:

Sweet Encircled with Love Valentine’s card

January 27, 2026

Tracey created this striking card with the Made with Love designer paper:

I love the abstract designer paper pieces she added to her White layer. Then to make sure the greeting was the focal point she added the top square of DSP. Perfect!
This is a great example of taking leftover pieces of coordinating DSP and layering them up. A great way to use scraps!

She used the Encircled with Love stamp set seen here along with the 1 3/4″ & 1 7/8″ circle punches. Her colors include Real Red, Flirty Flamingo with White which she got from the pretty designer paper.

Your card inspired me to look at and use my DSP scraps Tracey! Thank you.

This fun fold looks difficult but it’s quite deceiving. It’s really so simple to make; I hope you try one! I’m a bit obsessed with this fold!

The Friendly Foliage bundle is a big favorite of many since it came out in our Online store a few months ago.

Finally! We’re getting a new Stampin’ Positioner!

January 23, 2026

Stampin’ Up! has created a new Stampin’ Positioner for us! Since they had to take the Stamparatus off the market we’ve been waiting for a new tool for perfect stamping. Well, it’s now here!

Save

As you can see in the photo above it’s a brand new design. It has two clear plates, easy to use magnets and a brand new ‘press’ type mechanism.

Right now for those who are a Demonstrator, it’s available to pre-order until February 2nd for $49. After that, the new Stampin’ Positioner will be added to the Starter Kit FREE in February!

The cost of the Starter Kit is $99 and includes $125 in product of your choice. But in February, they’ll add in the new Stampin’ Positioner to ALL Demo’s starter kits!

This is super exciting for us Demo’s now and also for those that join in February!

It sounds like the general population will have to wait to get theirs…. but they promise it will be available sometime later this year to everyone.
