Rainbow of Happiness Easel card with video tutorial

The other card we made at my February card clubs was this bright rainbow easel card. We have so many wonderful rainbow themed products right now.

Details:

• The rainbows and small clouds are die-cut using the Rainbow dies (currently unavailable through March 28th). 
• The rainbows are cut from the Ombre 12 X 12" Specialty paper in the annual catalog (seen here). 
• The clouds are punched using the new Cloud punch from either the Simply Ombre DSP, the Sunshine & Rainbows DSP or the Supple Shimmer paper. *The cloud punch matched the Sunshine & Rainbow DSP perfectly! 
• The stamped images are from the Rainbow of Happiness & the Celebrating You stamp set; both in the 2022 Jan-June catalog
• The DSP inside the card is the Sunshine & Rainbow paper from the Sale-a-Bration catalog; it's free with any $50 order. 
• They could add either raindrops from the Silver & Clear Epoxy Essentials or the Artistry Blooms sequins. 
• The frame was made by cutting a rectangle from a 4" X 5 1/4" Basic White CS with the Stitched Rectangle dies.  

Have you noticed this gorgeous glimmery specialty paper in the annual catalog?  It's perfect for rainbows & that touch of glitter.

You can see the glimmer better in this close up.

 See the DSP here; it's so happy & bright.  Remember it's retiring after Monday; the last day of Sale-a-Bration.  It's free with any $50 order.

They could add greetings inside the easel if they wanted to.  We used Night of Navy ink for all greetings.

• New Catalog Party Displays!

  January 13, 2026

  ---

  It was a bit chilly when I held my New Catalog Open House this weekend but I still had a great turnout. I teased them to come with the promise of some warm soup and beverage. I truly love seeing my customers and friends come and enjoy spending time with each other here. Friendships are a huge part of stamping!

  Here are some of the displays I created for the event.

  Save

  Many of the cards on my display boards are swaps I received. I participated in 4 different swaps and received over 100 cards back! I love swapping!!

  Save

  I place my cards in our clear envelopes so unfortunately there may be some reflection in the photos.

  Save

  I have two magnetic boards from IKEA in my studio I can add DSP to for easy displays.

  Save

  Unfortunately the Sweet Bugs stamp set is already out of stock! Darn; that will be a popular one! No worries though, it should be back later this month.

  Save

  The designer paper hanging at the top is the new Splash of Sparkles specialty DSP. You can see it here.

  Save

  One of my favorite suites is the Nature Walk seen here.

  Save

  Above are the Online Exclusives released in November. I had to include these in my display because I had so many great samples and some people had not seen them yet. You can see all of our Online Exclusives here. The only difference between these products is they are not in a printed catalog. They can be ordered at any time.

  Save

  Lastly are my two January kits to go on display. Lovely & Beautiful and Sweet Bugs – both are fun fold cards.
  You can get the details and reserve your favorite here. Or choose the PDF tutorials.

  I served a Mexican Street Corn White Chicken Chili soup that everyone loved. Here’s a link to it on Pinterest if you’re interested.

• New Catalog card swaps video

  January 12, 2026

  On last week’s Live video I shared lots & lots of my new catalog and Online product card swaps as I walk you through the catalog. I received many amazing cards with great layouts & fancy folds. I hope you watch it. Here’s the link.

  I held my New Catalog Party this weekend and it was a big success! It’s always great to see people I don’t get to see regularly.
  I had so many wonderful displays of new products and my card swaps too. I’ll share those later this week.

  I did receive a few of the new kits in our Kit Collection seen here. One I had to make right away is the Adopt a Pet kit. It’s adorable! Kids would absolutely love making & playing with these.

  Save

  Isn’t it cute? Here’s the link to it in the store. It’s just $15. Oh, the imaginative play children will have with these critters would be pretty special.

  Save

  In the video I also shared the many new Stampin’ Up! specials going on.
