Good Friday morning stamping friends, welcome to my fun fold Friday. WOW!! We’re already halfway through July, where is the time going.  I hope you all had a great week and are looking forward to the weekend.

Today’s card is one that I did on my YouTube Live yesterday. If you were able to join me, thank you for hopping on.

If you’d like to watch the replay and stamp along, the measurements are on the bottom of this post along with the link to my video. Here’s my card for today.

Introducing the hottest items in crafting—the new Stampin’ Hot Foil System!!

The metallic magic starts with Stampin’ Hot Foil Rolls, specially made Hot Foil dies, and the Stampin’ Hot Foil System that works with the Stampin’ Cut & Emboss Machine (sold separately). The heat of the platform transfers the foil using hot foil dies designed specifically for this system, allowing you to add dazzling details to paper and more.

WHAT IS INCLUDED WHEN YOU PURCHASE THE STAMPIN’ HOT FOIL SYSTEM?

This is everything included in the Stampin’ Hot Foil System & Craft Class:

  • Metallic Magic Craft Class ($30 value—limited time only!)
  • Stampin’ Hot Foil platform
  • Stampin’ Hot Foil Shim & Spacer
  • Stampin’ Hot Foil Magnetic Pick-Up Tool
  • Silicone platform station
  • Silicone cooling pad
  • Power cord
  • Instructions on how to use the system

The Stampin’ Cut & Emboss Machine, Stampin’ Hot Foil Rolls (the foil itself), and Hot Foil dies and bundles are sold separately.

CRAFT CLASS

As an added bonus, everyone who purchases this system before January 4, 2027, will automatically be able to access the upcoming Metallic Magic Craft Class, a technique-centric virtual class. Attendees will make unique projects and learn crafting tips intended to elevate their hot foil crafting experience. This class is a special limited-time offer exclusive to this system and is an amazing tool when it comes to increasing skills, learning techniques, and making the most of this new product line.

You can see more details about the system, find the bundles and foil that will be available to order beginning on Friday, July 10 in this brochure:

A few notes about the new system:

  • Hot Foil results are best with either White Willow or Two-Tone Cardstock.  Smoother card stocks like the Two-Tone Cardstock and White Willow will achieve the best results when using the system, but you can use the regular card stocks too.
  • The Hot Foil System, foil rolls and new hot foil dies and bundles will be available Friday, July 10, 2026 in the online Stampin’ Up! store.
  • A FREE Hot Foil Online Class from Stampin’ Up! is included with your hot foil system purchase (a $30 value!), do not add the class separately to your cart (you’ll be charged for it if you do!).  You’ll automatically get a link to it after you purchase the Stampin’ Hot Foil System.
  • The Stampin’ Hot Foil system is $160. Dies & foil are sold separately.
  • Stampin’ Up! has let us know that if the Stampin’ Hot Foil system goes on backorder, it may take longer than normal to restock.  So if you would like to order the system, order sooner rather than later!
  • IMPORTANT NOTE:  Cutting dies are not designed to be used with hot foiling.  You cannot die cut using foiling dies.  Doing so risks damaging the dies and the system.

I’m so excited for you all to be able to order this new system!  Head over to my Stampin’ Up! online store beginning July 10 to see and order the new system!

I’m offering a Paper Share and a Ribbon & Embellishment Share from the July 2026 Online Exclusives, and I’d love to have you join!!  I’m placing my share order early on July 1st and I’m going to use the expedited shipping option so I should be able to have the shares cut, bundled and back out to you during the week of July 6th. Wouldn’t you love to have all of the gorgeous and fun new Papers in the upcoming July 2026 Online Exclusives?  What is a Paper Share you ask? It’s a sample of each of the new Papers from the Online Exclusives. Shares give you a good working sample of all of the papers so that you can decide which ones to order in full packs!  If you were to purchase all of the papers from the Online Exclusives, it would cost you over $90.00 plus shipping.

How my shares work:  I order full packs of all of the Papers listed below, I cut them into 6″ X 6″ pieces (or 6″ X 12″ pieces for double shares) and give you one panel of each design from each pack on the list.  I pack up the paper in a cellophane bag with labels listing the NameItem # and Colors in the pack and mail it back out to you just as quickly as I can!  

New Designer Series Paper Share – $10.50 plus $7.00 for shipping

You will receive one 6×6 sheet of each design from the following DSP packs (the number after the name indicates how many 6×6 sheets of that paper pack you will receive):

  • Frightfully Fun (6)
  • Frightfully Fun Two-Tone Cardstock (6)
  • Spooktacular (6×6) (4)
  • 2026-2028 In-Color Gingham (5)
  • A Stitched Season (6)
  • Violet Dreams Specialty (5)

If you’d like double shares of the paper, I’m offering those too! I’ll cut the 12″ x 12″ sheets into 6″ × 12″ so that you’ll be able to get 3 full A2 size card fronts from each sheet and you’ll get double sheets of the 6″ x 6″ since they’re already precut.

Double Paper Share – $21.00 Plus $7.00 Shipping

Ribbon/Embellishment Share – $12.50 plus $7.00 Shipping

All ribbons and Embellishments will come individually wrapped and labeled with the name and number of the product.

Anyone is welcome to join in my shares (please note, I can only ship to addresses within the US).  To make ordering the shares a little easier, I have created a form for you to submit, that way you can order any combination of shares you want. Click Here for the form.
