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!

  • Unique Silver & Gold Designer Paper technique ideas with video!


    I played with the Silver & Gold Designer Series Paper on this week's FB Live and this is one of my favorite projects: 

    My goal was to share different ways to add color to this pretty metallic themed paper.  for this card I used our Water Brushes and our 2022-24 In Color ink.  I filled the water brush with water, using the largest brush, added a wash of four of the five colors.  

    This card layout is one referred to as the Stack & Cut technique.  You start out with at least 2 pieces of Designer Paper measuring 3 3/4" X 5" and cut using the template below.  It's so easy and is a fabulous way to showcase your designer paper.  

    The sentiment is from the Amazing Phrasing stamp set – a free choice from our Sale-a-Bration catalog.  This stamp set is free with any $100 Stampin' Up! order.  See all of the Sale-a-Bration free choices here.  

    If you want either of these products why not take advantage of my BOGO sale and get free products from me with our purchase.  You'll still get New products from Stampin' Up! but also get to choose from my big bunch of retired Stampin' Up! products.  See details below, or view them all in my two albums here on my FB page.  

    Here's the video to see how it's done.  Click on the photo below.

  • CUTE Butterfly Kisses Card Kit to go or Tutorial


    I chose to feature the Butterfly Kisses designer paper for one of my August card kits to go.  It's so colorful & bright!  

    I created 2 each of 5 different cards; a few are special fun fold designs.  I find it quite enjoyable to create when I gather products that 'work' together so easily.  I let the colors in the DSP guide me and added Starry Sky ribbon & Fun Flowers resin shapes for accents.  

    If you like these cards you have a few options; get the pre-cut kit to go with the PDF tutorial or just the PDF tutorial only.  

    The pre-cut kit includes the following: 

    • All pre-cut pieces including punched or die-cuts
    • 1/2 pkg of 6 X 6" Butterfly Kisses DSP (you'll cut using the directions)
    • a share of Starry Sky Metallic Woven ribbon
    • a share of Fun Flowers Resin Shapes
    • The free PDF tutorial – photos, step by step directions, measurements & a supplies list

    Choose the pre-cut kit here or the PDF tutorial here.
