Sneak Peek of new products with a sketch for inspiration


On last week’s video I shared three cards featuring a new designer paper coming out in November. It’s called Brushed with Beauty.

My colors include Very Vanilla, Mossy Meadow & Calypso Coral. The stamp & dies bundle is called Words of Beauty and is part of the Brushed with Beauty suite. Demonstrators (& new team members) are able to order it early but you can see and order these new products on November 4th. They’re part of our Online Exclusives – new products released every other month.

This layout was inspired by a sketch. Every month my Flowerbug’s have a creative challenge involving sketches or a color combo. This will be our November sketch inspiration. Sketches are a fabulous start to creating a card or scrapbook page. And they’re just an inspiration. As you can see I did not use a circle but the die from the Label Me Grateful dies seen here. I also flipped the center rectangle on it’s side.

The Words of Beauty bundle will be a great option for greeting phrases. It includes two large sets of dies with the words ‘just’ and ‘because’ and then plenty of words to create your greeting. Plus the die I used with the word ‘because’ below is one of three in the package.

You’ll notice the new packaging in the photo below. All new stamps & dies will be in these envelopes. Also all new stamps will be clear photopolymer and not red rubber.

Here’s the free project sheet for this card; click here to print or download it. Did you know I have a category at the top of my blog where you can see lots of these? They’re great inspiration and include many fun fold cards.

I hope you’ll try this sketch layout. It’s a fun one! When you do, please share your project in my FB group here. We love seeing what everyone makes!

Below is the video for this card and two more – all featuring new & upcoming Stampin’ Up! products!

  • Around the Bend with the stunning Fine Shimmer paper


    Here's another sample of the Around the Bend bundle. This time I featured the Dainty Flowers DSP from Sale-a-Bration and the Fine Shimmer specialty paper. 

    The Fine Shimmer specialty paper comes in three colors – two 12 X 12" sheet of each in Soft Succulent, Gold & Fresh Freesia. You can see it here.  

    I cut the curved layers and the leaves in the bundle from the Soft Succulent sheet.  Because this specialty paper is slightly thicker than most papers I added a shim of copy paper in my sandwich.  It helped a lot!  

    Below you can see this Around the Bend bundle.  I think the curves are totally unique from anything we've had before.  I evenlike the greetings! 

    You can choose from Photopolymer (clear) or Cling (red rubber) when ordering this stamp set or bundle.  There are several with this option in the 2023 Spring catalog. See it here.

    I made a bunch of these for our January card swap with my Flowerbug's Team. We hold an optional swap each month with a variety of themes. This time was to use products from the Sale-a-Bration or 2023 Spring catalog. 

    You can see another pretty card here using this same bundle. 

    Below is the video where I made this card; it's the 2nd project.

  • A pretty Tri-Fold card with the Around the Bend bundle – video too


    I created this pretty card for last week's FB Live video.  I featured 3 cards with the Around the Bend bundle.  This might be my favorite. 

    The colors include White, Soft Succulent & Petal Pink.  The Around the Bend bundle can be seen here.  It was one of my top picks from the Spring catalog. 

    Did you know there are a few stamp sets in the 2023 Jan-April Spring catalog that are available in either Photopolymer or Cling rubber?  You can choose which one you'd like!  Love this option.  I believe they are offering the choice to see what we prefer and if it's feasible to offer both.  

    Here's how it looks open.  I added a piece of Evening Evergreen under the die-cut front flap to show off the pretty, delicate dots & curve.  I trimmed the edge of this Evergreen layer with a paper snips.  

    Here are the measurements: 

    • White 5 ½” X 11” scored at 4 & 8”
    • Soft Succulent 5 ½” X 4 ¼”
    • Evening Evergreen 5 ½” X 2 ¾”

    The flowers & leaves are also from this bundle.  I added the large flower & leaf layer with Dimensionals so it caught the upper flap, holding it closed.  

    Below is the video where I made this card; it's the third and last project.

  • Gorgeous cards in the Enjoy the Moment card kit or tutorial


    I knew I wanted to feature this pretty designer paper called Enjoy the Journey for a card kit to go but I wasn't sure quite how or where to start!  

    But once I decided to go with scenic and silhouette cards they came together wonderfully!  *this dsp is also available free with a $50 Stampin' Up! order through February. 

    I am thrilled with these cards; they're gorgeous!  I included quite a few fancy folds too. 

    The kit to go  includes 1/2 pkg. (6" X 12") of the Enjoy the Journey DSP, a share of both 3 twine combo and black matte dots, 10 envelopes, the pre-cut cards including die-cut & punched pieces and you'll receive the PDF tutorial free.  

    I also have the PDF tutorial only available if you do not want the pre-cut kit.  However the kit is the best deal; you receive $20 in product (before tax & shipping) plus the 10 pre-cut cards for just $28!  

    Opt in here for the card kit by February 19 to get it.  Or choose the PDF tutorial here instead.  This kit is mailed out at the end of February via Priority Mail.  The PDF tutorial will be send to you via email immediately after payment. 

    Add on the Happy Labels stamp set or bundle at an extra 10% off!  And if the total ($20 for the kit, $24 for the stamp set + more added) adds up to $50 or more you can choose a free Sale-a-Bration choice too.  Contact me here for this option. 

    *You will need the following to complete your cards:

    • Black ink and greeting images (I used Happy Labels)
    • a paper trimmer to cut your new DSP, adhesives, optional embossing folder

    Add on any other kit in my shop and save on shipping.  I have a second beautiful, new kit available here with the Texture Chic cards & envelopes.  See all of my kits here.
