We’re making explosion pop-up cards!!


On my Stamp with Me Live I shared these cards and how easy it is to make an explosion card.  

These cards look pretty ordinary from the front but there's a surprise inside; see below:

Isn't it cool?  And it's super easy to do.  It's a 6" square of designer paper that you fold in halves with a bone folder. No measuring at all!  

Here's the template for the explosion card. 

Here's a masculine birthday made with the Plaid Tidings designer paper and Many Mates stamp set.

These are so fun to make.  And you can add a bit more fun to the card by adding in some confetti, punched pieces or sequins to the inside.  What a surprise they'll enjoy! 

Join me here on the 2nd & 4th Mondays at 7:30 pm Central Time.  You can either watch or prep your pieces to create right along with me!  

Here's the video:

  • Price changes in the upcoming Annual Catalog


    The new Annual Catalogs are starting to arrive to Demonstrators this week.  Hopefully those I've ordered for my customers will start arriving within the next few weeks.  

    Pre-order is happening now for Demo's. We are able to order a select list of new products (starting Tuesday, April 2nd). It's so exciting to get brand new products in.  I've been creating cards for swaps this month and I'm loving these new colors, gems, ribbons, stamps & bundles!

    Did you know that you can get some of these exciting new products now too?  Just add them to your starter kit! Click here to get started and enjoy a 20% discount on all future orders!  

    Our beautiful new In Colors are a favorite choice to add to a Starter Kit:

    No one likes to hear that prices are going up. I know that. Unfortunately like everything else right in our world lately Stampin' Up! has cost increases.  Unless they pass this along to us….. well, you know what could happen and we don't want that!! 

    Below is a list of the price changes occurring in the 2024-26 Annual Catalog. If you need any of these products I suggest you get them now; in April! 

    Click here to see & print the list.  Download 2024-2025 ANNUAL CATALOG PRICE INCREASES

    I am stocking up on many of my favorite colors of card stock this month.  I'm also grabbing more envelopes too. 

    Remember the Last Chance sale starts next week, Tuesday, April 9th. It's tempting to wait to order some of these items.  But already there are several items out of stock/sold out.  So if you NEED something I suggest you get it now! See these lists here.

  • April’s Paper Pumpkin is ‘Delicate Wings’ and looks amazing


    I thought I'd share some sneak peaks of upcoming Paper Pumpkin kits.  

    April's kit is called Delicate Wings


    Did you know that you are in charge of which kits you receive?  Once you purchase a pre-paid subscription or subscribe you can opt out of any kit you do not want. Stampin' Up! shares what's coming up each month so you can decide if you want it or not.  You have complete control!

    You're also eligible to purchase any of the refill kits or add-on's SU offers. See them all here. 

    *Plus when you subscribe with me, LeeAnn Greff, you'll qualify for a FREE tutorial each month.

    • This tutorial PDF is filled with 10 or more alternate ideas for additional projects you can make with each month's kit (includes photos & instructions) – making your kit go a lot further!  *see example photo below

    Here is more info on how Paper Pumpkin works:

    A MONTHLY CRAFTING SUBSCRIPTION

    EVERYTHING YOU NEED IN A CRAFT BOX

    One issue crafters often run into is feeling overwhelmed by their project. Lack of inspiration, proper supplies and crafty know-how might discourage you from even starting a project and unlocking your creative potential!

    This never happens with a craft subscription box from Paper Pumpkin. That’s because everything you need for your project is included in your monthly art box. All you have to do is open it up and get started. You’ll be able to make cards, treat bags, gift boxes and so much more with your monthly art box subscription.

    BUILD YOUR STAMP COLLECTION

    Among the items in each Paper Pumpkin monthly craft kit is a reusable rubber stamp. So after you’re done creating your monthly craft, you’ll have a valuable stamp to add to your collection. You even get a free clear stamping block with your first craft box. Plus, you get a different color ink pad every month as well.

    PRINT & VIDEO INSTRUCTION MAKE CRAFTING EASY

    Even the craftiest among us worry that we’ll have trouble understanding how to do a project, or that we’ll make a mistake. You never have to worry about that with Paper Pumpkin! That’s because not only does each monthly arts and crafts box come with clear, easy-to-understand printed instructions, but we also upload a video to YouTube so you can watch a professional guide you through the craft.
