Good Tuesday morning stamping friends. How are you doing today? The Heat is on here in NJ. We’re hitting the 100’s this week. My bones are finally warm LOL. Are you getting excited for tomorrow yet? You can finally purchase the new products tomorrow from the July Online Exclusives. I’ll be getting up during the night to place my order for my shares so that I get everything I need.

Today’s card I used the 1st suite and bundle that I purchased from the May-August catalog. I use both of these bundles so much and I’m so happy I got them. Here’s my card for today.

I used the Stampin’ Up! Phrases & Frames Bundle, Stampin’ Up! Sunset Coast Bundle and the Scenic Coast 6 x 6 Specialty Designer Series Paper for my card.

Adhere a panel of Scenic Coast DSP to the front of a Night of Navy card base. Cut the center of the larger Night of Navy panel using the sailboat die. Stamp across the bottom of the die cut panel with the water image from the Sunset Coast stamp set in Versamark Ink. Sprinkle the image with Clear Embossing Powder and set it using the Heat Tool.

Fold the sides of the panel like an accordion on both sides. Put Tear & Tape on the edges of the folded ends and adhere the panel to the Night of Navy card base. Cut the cloud die using the Sunset Coast Dies from a panel of Basic White. Cut the small oval using the Phrases & Frames Dies from the panel of Basic White. Adhere the clouds to the die cut panel with Stampin’ Dimensionals.

Stamp the sentiment from the Phrases & Frames stamp set on the die cut oval in Night of Navy Ink. Adhere the sentiment to the card front with Stampin’ Dimensionals. Add a few Sunset Sparkle Sequins to the card front

Stamp the sentiment from Phrases & Frames stamp set in Night of Navy Ink on a panel of Basic White. Adhere a panel of Scenic Coast DSP to the bottom of the panel. Stamp the sailboat image from Sunset Coast stamp set on the bottom of the panel. Adhere the Basic White panel to a Night of Navy Two-Tone cardstock mat then to the inside of the Night of Navy card base.

Decorate a Basic White Medium envelope to finish your card. Adhere a strip of Scenic Coast DSP to the envelope front. Stamp the sailboat image from Sunset Coast stamp set in Night of Navy Ink on top of the panel. Adhere a panel of Scenic Coast DSP to the envelope flap.

Thank you for stopping by my blog today. I hope you like the card and will give it a try. Happy Stamping!!

Register for Pretty Poinsettia Christmas in July Online Class – 12 Days Only

Tara and I are teaming up to offer a Christmas in July Online Class featuring the Stampin’ Up! Pretty Poinsettia Bundle and 2026-2028 In-Color Gingham Gallery DSP. To ensure we can get the products for you the sign-up time is very short, only 12 days. We want to ensure that we are able to get the embossing folders for everyone and the bundle if you wish to order it. We are offering the bundle to you at an additional 10% discount (see price on form). We will be creating 6 different cards during the class including 2 Fun Fold cards. Click Here to register.

The class fee includes:

• Stampin’ Up! Iridescent Pearls Basic Jewels (full pack)
• Seasonal Cheer Mini Embossing Folder
• Pre-cut card kits to complete each card
• Zoom class with complete instructions to complete each card

During sign up you will have the option to add additional items to your order that you can take advantage of at no additional shipping cost.  These items are optional, however if you want to recreate the cards you will need them. If you’ve attended a previous class, you were given a discount code, there is a spot to put that code on the form and the discount only applies to the products that you check off that you wish to purchase, not the class.  Since the Pretty Poinsettia Bundle is already discounted, the discount does not apply to that.

The class will be held Sunday July 26th from 1 to 4 pm Eastern Time via Zoom.  This allows anyone in the United States to participate live!  Can’t join us live… no worries, we will record the session so it can be replayed at any time.

I will email written directions that will include directions, cardstock cuts as well as photos to help you create each card.

Class Cost $40 + $10 (Shipping) 

Additional purchased items will be included in the above shipping price.  I will invoice you through PayPal and invoices must be paid by July 10th to insure I can get the products.  Sign up by Clicking Here.

Deadline: Friday July 10th

Starting June 30, New Join Experience

Beginning June 30, 2026 at 4:00 PM MT, Stampin’ Up! is introducing a simplified join process designed to make joining faster and easier than ever before!  The new process will create a more streamlined experience when you join!  

As part of the new join process, all first-time demonstrators (beginning June 30, 2026 at 4:00 PM MT) will receive a surprise Welcome Box—a gesture of appreciation and a warm welcome into the global Stampin’ Up! creative community!

How the New Process Works

Step 1: Join

New demonstrators will:

1. choose a team leader.
2. accept required agreements.
3. enter a few personal details.
4. pay the $100 join fee.
5. click submit.

Step 2: Shop

Once their information has been reviewed and approved (usually very quickly), their Welcome Box ships, and the new demonstrator receives an email with:

• their demonstrator ID.
• a coupon code to begin shopping.

About the Coupon Code

• Valued at $125.
• Coupon code can be applied to any demonstrator order.
• Order CAN exceed the coupon code value (I know that many people wanted the option to be able to add more than $125 to their Starter Kit!).
• Any amount above the coupon code value:
  • receives the demonstrator discount.
  • counts toward the quarterly sales minimum.
  • earns Stampin’ Rewards if it meets the qualifying purchase amount (as long as you’ve opted into the Stampin’ Rewards program).

Additional perk for new demonstrators

• New demonstrators may add eight free catalogs to any order!

Let me know if you have any questions about the new joining process.  I’m so happy that you’ll now have the option to go over the $125 amount AND that it will automatically count toward your sales! 

Why not start thinking about joining the Stampin’ Up! community. I’d love to have you on my team and July is the perfect time to sign up. Contact me at: creativestampingdesigns@gmail.com and I’d be more than happy to answer any questions you might have. We’re a very relaxed team that loves to create and share.
