More Thoughtful Journey showcase cards!

Today I'm sharing the other two cards Judith made with the Thoughtful Journey Suite.  I shared three yesterday and am so proud of the fabulous projects she created!

This stunning fun fold card is incredible!  I loved it so much I had to case it.

I made a different version along with a video tutorial too.  Click here to see it and the free project tutorial too.  I am not providing measurements here in this post since they're in the link above. 

Here's the front view of her card:

She used the pretty Thoughtful Wishes bundle seen here. It's on sale now – 20% off in June!

I'm not surprised that the pretty Thoughtful Journey designer paper is unavailable right now. I featured it in my June card kit to go posting next week.  It should be back around June 24th.

Next is the last card in her bundle of gorgeousness.

Do you see how she fussy cut a second layer of designer paper and another set of flowers to pop up over the first?  Great technique!  I love how she added attention to the greeting with a frame made from the Perennial Postage dies seen here.

Thank you sooo much for sharing your creativity with us Judith!

• 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.

  Save

  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!

• 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.
