Posted on by

Good Sunday morning stamping friends. I hope you are having a nice weekend. It’s a cold, gloomy, rainy day here in NJ, great day for crafting in my opinion. I’m hoping to do a lot of that today after getting a few errands done.

I played with a bundle and DSP from the new May Online Exclusives that will be available May 5. Unfortunately, this suite is only available in the US because of copyrights. Here’s my card for today.

Stampin' Up! Sweet Words & Labels Friends 1 creativestampingdesigns.com

I used the new Stampin’ Up! Online Exclusive Sweet Words & Labels Bundle along with the Silly Old Bear Designer Series Paper. These products will be available starting May 5 Only in the US from the Online Exclusives.

Add a few 2026-2028 In-Color Butterflies (available May 5) to the card front.

Stampin’ Up! Words & Wishes Thank You

Posted on by

Good Saturday morning stamping friends and welcome to the weekend. I’ll be working all day, then it’s time to get things prepped for brunch tomorrow. What are your plans?

I have a sneak peek of a new bundle coming May 5th. I’m loving the dies with this bundle. Here’s my card for today.

Stampin' Up! Words & Wishes Thank You 1 creativestampingdesigns.com

I used the new Stampin’ Up! Words & Wishes Bundle (avail May 5) along with the Stone & Vine 3D Embossing Folder and Nature Walk Designer Series Paper for my card today.

Stampin' Up! Words & Wishes Thank You 2 creativestampingdesigns.com

Adhere a panel of Nature Walk DSP to a Pretty Peacock card base. Emboss a Lost Lagoon card front with the Stone & Vine EF. Swipe over the embossed panel with the Pretty Peacock Ink Pad. Adhere the embossed panel to a Basic White mat.

Stampin' Up! Words & Wishes Thank You 3 creativestampingdesigns.com

Using the Words & Wishes Dies, cut the outlined sentiments from a panel of Basic White and the detailed sentiment from a panel of Pretty Peacock. Adhere the detailed sentiment to the mat. Adhere the layered sentiments to the card front with Stampin’ Dimensionals.

Stampin' Up! Words & Wishes Thank You 4 creativestampingdesigns.com

Adhere the card front to the Pretty Peacock card base with Stampin’ Dimensionals. Add a few Pearls of Beauty to the card front.

Stampin' Up! Words & Wishes Thank You 5 creativestampingdesigns.com

Stamp the sentiment from Words & Wishes stamp set in Pretty Peacock Ink on a panel of Basic White. Adhere a panel of Nature Walk DSP to the bottom of the panel. Adhere the Basic White panel to a Lost Lagoon mat then to the inside of the Pretty Peacock card base.

Stampin' Up! Words & Wishes Thank You 6 creativestampingdesigns.com

Decorate a Basic White Medium Envelope to finish your card. Make a stencil by die cutting the leaf die from the Words & Wishes Dies. Using a Sponge Dauber and Lost Lagoon Ink, sponge over the stencil to create the leaves. Adhere a panel of Nature Walk DSP to the envelope flap.

Stampin’ Up! Framed All Around CAS Birthday

Posted on by

Good Tuesday morning stamping friends. How are you all doing today? Today’s a very exciting day for us demonstrators. I was up bright and early placing my preorder for the new catalog. I can’t wait to get my hand on the new products and start creating. Are you are interested in getting your hands on the awesome new products from the upcoming catalog early? Contact me and I can help you.

Today’s card is a CAS card that you can make super quick. Pretty in Pink will soon be retiring and I wanted to use it before it’s gone. It’s such a pretty, true pink, I’d love for this color to come back one day as one of our core colors. If you’d like to see a quick video on how I made this card, Click Here to go to my Instagram Reels. Here is my card for today.

Stampin' Up! Framed All Around CAS 1 creativestampingdesigns.com

I used the Stampin’ Up! Framed All Around Stamp Set along with the Branching Out Dies just to cut a mask, for my card today.

Stampin' Up! Framed All Around CAS 1 creativestampingdesigns.com

Cut a mask using the Branching Out Dies. Place the mask over a panel of Basic White and add Pretty in Pink Ink using a Blending Brush. Remove mask. Stamp the flower and leaf images from the Framed All Around stamp set in Secret Sea Ink, partially on and partially off the pink area. Stamp the sentiment from the Framed All Around stamp set in Secret Sea Ink next to the flower stems.

Stampin' Up! Framed All Around CAS 3 creativestampingdesigns.com

Adhere the Basic White panel to a Secret Sea mat and a Pretty in Pink mat. Adhere the layered panel to a Secret Sea card base with Stampin’ Dimensionals. Tie a small bow using the White 1/4″ Ribbon and adhere it to the stem with a Glue Dot.

Stampin' Up! Framed All Around CAS 4 creativestampingdesigns.com

Add Clear Wink of Stella Glitter to the flowers. Add a few Iridescent Pearls Basic Jewels to the card front.

Stampin' Up! Framed All Around CAS 5 creativestampingdesigns.com

Stamp the sentiment from the Framed All Around stamp set in Secret Sea Ink on a panel of Basic White. Stamp the flower image from the Framed All Around stamp set in Secret Sea Ink on the bottom of the panel. Add Clear Wink of Stella to the flowers. Stamp the leaf image from Framed All Around stamp set on the top of the panel in Secret Sea Ink. Adhere the Basic White panel to a Pretty in Pink mat then to the inside of the Secret Sea card base.

Stampin' Up! Framed All Around CAS 6 creativestampingdesigns.com

Decorate a Basic Whtie Medium Envelope to finish your card. Stamp the flower and leaf images from Framed All Around stamp set in Secret Sea Ink on the envelope front and flap.

Stampin’ Up! Paradise Garden You Are Appreciated

Posted on by

Good Saturday morning stamping friends and welcome to the weekend. We’re having such a great time here in Long Beach at OnStage. The weather is beautiful, even though we’re inside most of the day. We’ve had a couple team dinners that always have a lot of laughing and chatting going on. We’ve been on the go since Thursday afternoon. Getting to see the new catalog was awesome and all the new products coming. I just love the new layout of the catalogs that we’re going to have.

Today’s card is one that we made during our Stamping Studio with Jaimie Tuesday night for mystery stamping. Jaimie sent us measurements and walked us through putting the card together. Here’s my card for today.
