Quick Notecard idea with the Banner Sayings bundle

January 20, 2026

I needed to send a few special cards to my Team members this weekend and so I created these cute notecards:

The large piece of designer paper is 4″ X 3″ and the bottom strip is 4″ X 1″. I added a 1/4″ strip of textured Coastal Cabana between them (I found it in my scraps).

I chose to make notecards because the package I was sending their prizes in was narrow and these fit perfectly.
Did you know we carry pre-scored notecards with envelopes? The package includes 20 cards and 20 envelopes for just $10. You can see them here.

I chose the Hobby Haven designer paper because of it’s colors and ‘hobby’ themed prints. See it here. It’s part of our Online product selection.

I decided to feature the Banner Sayings bundle for a few reasons. It’s quick with the coordinating punch and the greeting I chose fit my needs perfectly. Click here to see it. The new Triple Banner punch was out of stock for weeks! But now it’s back.

Totally different looks from the same Friendly Hello designer paper. You can go soft or bold with it!

On the top right I added the stamped image from the Friendly Hello stamp set (part of the free bundle during SAB) and on the top left I added a few die-cuts from the Tropical Layers dies seen here. I think they coordinate wonderfully.

Easel Calendar with a post it box; made by Melissa

January 29, 2022
I LOVE sharing what my friends make. Shout out to Melissa who made this adorable, bright & happy Easel Calendar for her club friends this month.

She searched for a tutorial and actually found one I did last year! She added a box for a pack of post-it notes too!

She used the Pattern Party host paper seen here or on page 171 of our Annual catalog. I always encourage my hostesses to choose this paper; it's the BEST deal! It's valued at $30 but hostesses can choose it for just $18 as part of their hostess benefits. Tip: Everyone earns free benefits on orders over $150; even Demonstrators!

This is the type of information I want you to know before placing an order. I want to maximize your value and get you the best deal on our products that I can! *please contact me before ordering so I can help you!

It's a huge pack of 48 12 X 12" sheets with fun, colorful patterns on one side & Black & White on the other. It's my favorite DSP in the whole book!

Measurements are below. Or watch the video here.

Rainbow of Happiness shaker card with video tutorial

January 28, 2022

I played with the Rainbow of Happiness bundle on Facebook Live earlier this week. Here's a neat shaker card I made:

Shaker cards look difficult but they're fun AND easy! Watch the video below to see how it's done.

The Rainbow of Happiness bundle is 10% off in our Spring catalog. See it here. I just noticed it's on low inventory. That means when they run our it will not be available again until the product is restocked. That Global Shipping issue you know!!

It's hard to see in the photo above but the paper inside the shaker is our Rainbow Glimmer specialty paper from the annual catalog. I share a neat trick to get these rainbow die-cuts in place in the video below or click here.

Here's a close up of another:

Here are some details:
- The large rainbow is made with the Brilliant Rainbow dies – it's part of the Rainbow of Happiness bundle.
- The small clouds are die-cut from our Supple Shimmer paper & the Rainbow dies
- The sequins & beads in the shaker are from the Sparkle & Shine sequins
- I used our Foam Adhesive strips on the back side of the White die-cut piece to raise it and keep the shaker pieces in place.
- The large clouds are punched with our new Cloud Punch. One is punched from the Sunshine & Rainbows free DSP during our Sale-a-Bration promotion. See it here.

The card above on the left has a cloud bank made with our Border Basic dies and our new Supple Shimmer paper. Stampin' Up! is terrific at coordinating their products so incredibly.

The shaker card is the first project I make in the video below. Click on it to watch!
