Good Friday morning stamping friends and welcome to my fun fold Friday. I made it safely to TN Wednesday afternoon. It was so great getting to spend some time with Judi and Tara before heading to GA yesterday. Then once we arrived at the house and met up with everyone the fun began. Of course, our first dinner that James made us was amazing. We had a Salad, Beef Lasagna, Garlic Bread Panned Fried Brussel Sprouts with Sweet Chilli Sauce and Skillet Roasted Broccoli. It was finished off with a wonderful Lemon Blueberry Angel Food cake. Looking forward to our Blueberry French Toast bake this morning.

Today’s card is one that we made last Sunday at our quarterly team meeting. This card was designed by Rosie Kean one of my amazing team members. I changed mine up a little, as I usually do. Here’s my card for today.

I used the Stampin’ Up! Banner Sayings Stamp Set, Sunflower Fields Suite Collection and the Stylish Shapes Dies.

Adhere the 2 panels of Sunflower Fields DSP to Secret Sea mats. Adhere the panel of Radiant Foil Specialty Paper to the Secret Sea mat. Using the Radiant Sunflower Dies, cut 2 of the small sunflowers from a panel of Golden Glow and 1 from a panel of Cajun Craze. Cut 3 flower centers from a panel of Early Espresso. Stamp the leaf image from the Radiant Sunflowers stamp set 3 times on a panel of Old Olive in Mossy Meadow Ink. Cut the images using the Radiant Sunflowers Dies. Adhere the 2 Sunflower Field layered panels to the top and bottom of either the right or left side of the card front. Adhere the Radiant Foil layered panel to the center of the opposite side you adhere the floral one.

Adhere the flower centers to the flowers. Adhere the sunflowers to the ends of the layered panels with Stampin’ Dimensionals. Adhere the leaves under the sunflowers.

On a panel of Very Vanilla, stamp the sentiment from Banner Sayings stamp set in Secret Sea Ink. Cut the sentiment out using the short Stylish Shapes Dies banner. Adhere a piece of Mossy Meadow & Very Vanilla 1/4″ Gingham Ribbon to the Radiant Foil panel. Adhere the sentiment over the ribbon with Stampin’ Dimensionals. Add a few Radiant Gems to the card front.

Adhere 2 panels of Sunflower Fields DSP to Secret Sea mats. Adhere the 2 layered panels to either side of the inside of the Very Vanilla card base. Using the Radiant Sunflowers Dies, cut the larger sunflower image from a panel of Golde Glow, the stem from a panel of Mossy Meadow and the flower center from a panel of Pecan Pie. Adhere the die cuts to a panel of Very Vanilla. Adhere the Very Vanilla panel to a Secret Sea mat then to the inside of the Very Vanilla card base.

Decorate a Basic Whtie Medium Envelope to finish the card. Stamp the sentiment from the Radiant Sunflowers stamp set in Secret Sea Ink on the envelope front. Adhere a panel of Sunflower Fields 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!!

Join Experience

Stampin’ Up! is introduced 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

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!
