Last of the Team card swaps featuring new products


Today I’m sharing the last two swaps from May; our theme was to use new Summer catalog products.

This first card was made by Ginny. She cased a card made by Chelle Scott.

She used the Fern & Flora bundle seen here. Who doesn’t love ferns!? Stampin’ Up! did an awesome job on these dies.
The colors here are Mossy Meadow, Old Olive and Peaceful Pine.

And look at that gorgeous embossing folder – called Fern & Flora 3D folder is stunning! See it here.

Next is a pretty card made by Paula who featured the Valley in Bloom Designer Paper.

It’s a book binding card fold. Start with a 11″ X 4 1/4″ card base; score at 4 1/4″ & 5 1/2″. Adhere the ‘binding’ area down.
Her colors include Blackberry Bliss with Granny Apple Green. She added some of the new 2026-28 In Color butterflies too.

This designer paper is simply stunning; it’s so soft and yet detailed at the same time. See it here.

Here’s what she did on the inside. The dies are so pretty!

Here’s the Lily of the Valley bundle that includes these beautiful dies.

Thanks for joining the swap gals; LOVE your cards!

  • Balloon Festoon surprise slider card with video tutorial


    I shared this CUTE card on last week’s Live video. We made it at my May card clubs:

    It features the Balloon Festoon bundle seen here and the Beautiful Ordinary Life designer series paper. Both are in the 2026 May – August catalog by Stampin’ Up! They pair up wonderfully together!

    It might look like a simple fun fold card but look how it opens:

    The inside greeting layer slides out when you open the front of the card. It’s super easy! Watch the video below to see my tips & tricks on this card fold.

    My colors include Pool Party, Crisp Cantaloupe, White & Daffodil Delight. I used the colors in the Beautiful Ordinary Life DSP as a guide.

    Here’s the free project sheet for this card; click here. Feel free to download it to print or save in your files for later.

    Below is the video tutorial; I hope you watch it! There’s a second card I share as well; I’ll feature that project in tomorrow’s post.

  • Cool technique for a background made with our new shimmer brushes


    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!

    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.

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

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

    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.

    I have one Mystery Box left!

    Message me before you order to be sure it’s still available.
