Good Monday morning stamping friends, welcome to a new week. How was your weekend? Finally, Sunday we had a day without rain and it actually cooled off quite a bit with very low humidity. It’s supposed to be heading to the 90’s for the rest of the week though.

I have a quick black & white card for you today. If you’d like to see a quick video on how I made this card, Click Here to go to my Instagram Reels. 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!

1 week left to Register for Pretty Poinsettia Christmas in July Online Class

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, 1 week. 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.

Only 10 Days left to Register for Pretty Poinsettia Christmas in July Online Class

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.

Stampin’ Up! Sweet Foliage Sending Salutations

Good Sunday morning stamping friends. I hope you are all having a nice weekend. It’s a rainy cool one here in NJ. Luckily my plans for the weekend are all inside. Today Tara and I will run our June Online Class. We always enjoy stamping with everyone that joins in.

I did a little emboss resist technique for today’s card. I haven’t done that in a while, and I thought the new background stamp coming with the July Online Exclusives was a perfect one to use for it. Here’s my card for today.

Stampin' Up! Sweet Foliage Sending Salutations 1 creativestampingdesigns.com

I used the new Stampin’ Up! Sweet Foliage Stamp Set (available July 1), Stampin’ Up! Sending Salutations Stamp Set, Beautiful Ordinary Life Designer Series Paper and the Circle Punches for my card today.

My sketch is from Freshly Made Sketches #742

Stampin' Up! Sweet Foliage Sending Salutations 2 creativestampingdesigns.com

On a panel of Basic White, stamp the leaf image from Sweet Foliage stamp set in Versamark Ink. Sprinkle the image with Clear Embossing Powder and set it with the Heat Tool. Using the Blending Brush, go over the entire panel with Peaceful Pine Ink. Wipe gently with a tissue when you’ve added the amount of color you want, to take any ink off the embossed parts. Adhere the panel to a Flirty Flamingo mat then to the front of the Basic White card base.

Stampin' Up! Sweet Foliage Sending Salutations 3 creativestampingdesigns.com

Adhere a panel of Flirty Flamingo under a panel of Beautiful Ordinary Life DSP. Adhere the layered panel to the card front. Adhere a Floral Flight Accent to the card front.

Stampin' Up! Sweet Foliage Sending Salutations 4 creativestampingdesigns.com

From a panel of Basic White cut a circle using the 1 3/4″ Circle Punch. From a panel of Peaceful Pine cut a circle using the 1 7/8″ Circle Punch. From a panel of Flirty Flamingo cut a circle using the 2″ Circle Punch. Stamp the sentiment from the Sending Salutations stamp set in Flirty Flamingo Ink on the 1 3/4″ circle. Adhere the Basic White circle to the Peaceful Pine circle then to the Flirty Flamingo circle. Adhere the layered circles to the card front over the Floral Flight Accents with Stampin’ Dimensonals.

Stampin' Up! Sweet Foliage Sending Salutations 5 creativestampingdesigns.com

Stamp the sentiment from Sending Salutations stamp set in Flirty Flamingo Ink on a panel of Basic White. Adhere a panel of Beautiful Ordinary Life DSP to the bottom of the panel. Adhere the Basic White panel to a Flirty Flamingo mat then to the inside of the Basic White card base.
