New Catalog Open House & BOGO is Saturday! NEW product shares are up!


I hold an Open House event with each new catalog release by Stampin’ Up! It’s a wonderful time to gather my friends and customers together and to get the new catalog in their hands. They’re always excited about these because I make a BIG DEAL over the event.

I love to show off our new products with displays and samples. I gather door prizes, free cards to give with orders, door prizes and an array of yummy food.

It’s Saturday at my home studio from 11:30 – 1:30 pm and will include a BOGO this time.

It shocks most people when they hear this, but I do not keep any of my Stampin’ Up! products from year to year. I just don’t have time to use it. So I price my retired products and put them in my garage for the sale. For each dollar you spend on my retired products you can pick out NEW items for free! Basically they are getting either one for FREE. It’s a wonderful deal for them and I can clear out my stash to make room for more. Win, win!!

If you’re near me in Minot, ND I hope you’ll come to the event. Even though I hold multiple card clubs each month I have lots of customers I only see a few times a year. It’s so neat to watch my gals gather together & catch up. I love it!

I’m also offering my Designer Paper and Embellishment shares to locals and long distance customers!

I know many who like to get a sampling of everything so they know what they want to order more of. It’s a great way to go. There’s nothing like seeing the new products in person!

Reserve your DSP share here. It includes 65 sheets of 12 different papers from the 2026 May-August catalog; all in 6 X 6″ size. You can double your share and get all but one in 6″ X 12″ size. Click here to reserve a double share.

Details:

– This share includes all NEW papers in the summer catalog; not any Online Exclusives.
– The shares will be ordered and filled in order of purchase. It may take up to 2 or more weeks to receive them.
– if products become unavailable I may wait to ship the share until all are available.
– This share includes a printed list of card stock/paper colors in each designer paper.
– it does include 6 specialty papers. It does not include the Luxe White or Everyday Essentials Mix & Match DSP.

Here are the details on my new Embellishment share:

There are 8 different gems included in this share. You’ll receive a portion of each with a total of 186 different embellishments! All are shown above except the Loose Anchor trinkets. There will be 3 of those included in the share.
*You can double this share if you’d like.

The cost is $15 for locals (add $4 for shipping). No additional shipping is needed if you add this on to your DSP share above; I’ll combine shipping.

Reserve your embellishment share here.

Get both! You can opt in and get both shares here.

  • Make up to 24 great cards with this easy layout!


    I created 24 wonderful but super easy cards on this week's Facebook Live video.  I featured the same template but switched it from vertical to horizontal for each set of 12 cards.

    I chose to use the new Pattern Party host Designer Paper because of it's versatility and fun color combos.  You can see this paper here. 

    I kept these cards super simple but you could easily add more layers if you'd like.  Here's a close up of two of my favorites:

    Above is Crushed Curry card bases paired with the adorable Pattern Party black and white side of this fabulous Designer Paper.  I used both the Friends & Flowers and the Sunny Sentiments stamp sets here.  The flowers are colored in with Blends markers. 

    Here are all of the landscape cards; I love this stamp & punch bundle!  

    And next are all of the vertical cards.  I stamped the flower image from the Friends & Flowers on either White or colored card stock and colored them in with either Blends markers or Wink of Stella; or both!  Simply add a greeting strip and some rhinestones.  So easy!  


    The above set of cards is the exact same layout as the landscape cards; just flipped vertically!  I love the versatility of this design!  This is the same designer paper as well, but on the colorful side.  The reverse is all black & white patterns.  

    The images are from the Friends & Flowers stamp set.  The greeting strips are about 3/4" X 3". 

    Think how quickly you could make a stack of cards using this easy layout!  Below is the video to get my tips and see the cards better. 

    Remember that my perk for ordering over $50 in July is a stack of twenty 4" X 6" Designer Paper that includes at least 12 sheets of this Pattern Party DSP.  It's enough to make all 24 cards shown and more!  And the  more you order the more free Designer Paper you'll receive!
