Great cards made with the Celebration Expression Memories & More pack

April 3, 2026

I hadn’t touched the Celebration Expression Memories & More cards yet; so I found an hour or so to create these:

Aren’t they fun? These printed Memories & More cards come in both 4″ X 6″ and 3″ X 4″ cards. They are discounted and retiring! See them here. I did use the ‘Memories & More cards and envelopes’ as the card bases which made it super simple. These cards are a nice size – 4 1/4″ X 6 1/4″ which is larger than our traditional size. They are now in the last chance list and retiring soon!

You’re likely wondering where the greetings came from. And I didn’t stamp a thing! Each of the greetings came from the Saying Something Ephemera pack. These are fabulous! They’re also discounted, in low inventory right now and will likely retire soon. See them here.

I’ll share these cards in sets of 4 next:

I did add a few layers of card stock on these cards to bring some solid backgrounds to the greetings. I also added some rhinestone gems & ribbons – Balmy Blue gingham, Timid Tiger 1/4″ and Bubble Bath 1/8″ ribbons.

It was so much fun to simply play with the cards, layering them or adding CS strips here & there. What a perfect way to create without a lot of product. This would be perfect to take to a crop or crafty play day with friends.

Cool technique for a background made with our new shimmer brushes

May 28, 2026

Take your new Shimmer Brushes for a test drive with this darling DIY background idea. Stampin’ Up! posted this card idea; what a super neat plaid background!

Save

Here’s how you do it:

Step 1: Draw diagonal lines on Basic White Cardstock using the Barely Blush Shimmer Brush. (Use the Clear Block F as a guide.) Apply light pressure to create fine lines; increase pressure for thicker lines.

Save

Step 2: Rotate your cardstock and (using the Clear Block F) draw additional lines to create a plaid pattern.

Save

Step 3: Decorate your sparkling background with images, sentiments, and embellishments, then adhere the finished piece to the card base.

Save

We now have 5 colors of these Shimmer Brushes in each of our new In Colors. See them all here.

I hope this technique inspires you to try it. I think you could also do it with our Wink of Stella on any color CS.

More Team swaps!

May 26, 2026

Here are a few more of the Team swaps featuring brand new catalog products.

Jacki created this striking card with the Scalloped Blooms bundle seen here.

Save

Her colors include Melon Mambo, Black & White. Those scalloped circle dies are so fun aren’t they? The leaf die-cuts are from the Delicate Whispers dies seen here.

Next is a striking card made by Joan: She chose to highlight the Scenic Coast DSP.

Save

She also used the Relaxing Waterside bundle seen here. Love that chair! As you might guess, it’s a fun fold ‘bridge card’.

Save

Super cool! To make this card you’ll start with a 5 1/2″ X 8 1/2″ card base, scored at 4 1/4″. Now use the paper trimmer to cut up to the score line on each side at 1 1/4″.
The DSP is 2 3/4″ X 4″ and on the sides it’s 1″ X 4″. There’s also a lower and an upper strip that is 5 1/4″ X 1″.

Save

Great cards ladies! I’ll share more later this week.
