I paired it with the new Sale-a-Bration paper called Dandy Designs. It's 12 X 12" and has 48 sheets. It's free with a $100 order during our Sale-a-Bration promotion; January 5th – February 28th.
When figuring out my card swap I came up with two different cards. The left card is simple but shows off the images and DSP. The card below on the right is a fun fold card.
The center panel on the right card above and the card below slides up and down; I call it a Vertical Slider card. It's not attached to anything but 'catches' on both sides of the center gatefold design with three circles or squares adhered to the back. It's so easy! Here's a linkto the video on how to make it.
I decided to fussy cut one carrot on each card and pop it up with Stampin' Dimensionals. It took a little time to do 22 of them, but worth it in my opinion.
Here's a photo of all 22 cards I made for my swap. I love the colors for the carrots – Mango Melody & Granny Apple Green – I think they're perfect for them.
You can earn this stamp set free during Sale-a-Bration – January 5th – February 28th. Any $50 order and it's yours! Stay tuned for more sneak peaks this week.
Below is a video tutorial with another version of the vertical slider card:
I chose to use Coastal Cabana, Daffodil Delight, Night of Navy & Bermuda Bay. It's available as a kit to go or choose the PDF tutorial here. The tutorial includes directions for 4 different sets of cards; all using this wonderful template.
The kit to go is the best deal; it includes the stamp set, printed template on White CS & the pre-cut cards. Contact me here to order it.
I have a ton of Valentine's swaps I want to share with you too. Most of these are made by my stamping friends. I cannot give credit to all of them as their post-it or business card was lost as my local customers browsed through them.
My friend Susie Wood made this adorable Hello Ladybug card. She used the Checks & Dots embossing folder on the Red layer.
This cute card lost it's post-it so I cannot give credit. I love how the panels are cut apart but the Sweet Talk designer paper still shows it's pattern.
This next card is so cute!! It was also made by my friend Susie Wood. I love the chalkboard effect of stamping on Black with White Craft ink. Nuts & Bolts is the stamp set & the Gingham embossing folder was used on the background.

There will be a change in Paper Pumpkin pricing going forward. Here's what Stampin' Up! has recently stated:
Despite Covid’s continued strain on the global economy, Stampin’ Up! has been working diligently to maintain the lowest possible price for our Paper Pumpkin subscription box, including absorbing costs to prevent price increases. However, as we continue to see greater cost increases to raw materials, shipping, and overhead, we have made the decision to increase pricing in order to maintain the high quality and value of the monthly kit. On 1 March 2022, Paper Pumpkin kits will see a slight increase in price.
But, there is a way to get the current prices for Paper Pumpkin and save money going forward. Prepaid codes–both redeemed and unredeemed–purchased before the 1 March price change will maintain their full value. No additional payment will be required.
So here's my suggestion for you:
Purchase a pre-paid subscription in February for 3 month, 6 months, or 12 months and get it at the current lower price for that entire time period! Go here to order yours.
Plus with a pre-paid subscription you can earn free Sale-a-Bration choices at the same time. It's a WIN WIN choice!
And besides the free Sale-a-Bration choice you'll also receive free gifts (Gingham embossing folder & a calendar kit!) from me with your online order in February. See details below.
