Stampin’ Up! Splendid Thoughts Wedding Fun Fold

Good Monday morning my stamping friends. How was everyone’s weekend? I hope you were able to do something fun. Is everyone ready for a new week? I can’t believe we’re almost to the middle of June. I’m guessing if you have children, they will be finishing up school this week and starting their summer vacation. Sometimes I miss those days.

Today’s card was one that we made at our in-person team meeting yesterday. This one was designed by one of my team member Rosie, who lives in South Dakota. We have team members all over the United States, but thanks to Zoom, we can all get together. Here’s my card for today.

I used the Stampin’ Up! Splendid Thoughts Bundle along with the Splendid Day Specialty Designer Series Paper for my double Z fold card today.

I started by adhering the foil panels of Splendid Day DSP to the coordinating Soft Sea Foam mats using Stampin’ Seal. I adhered the layered panels to the Sahara Sand card base.

I stamped the sentiment from the Splendid Thoughts stamp set in Soft Suede Ink on the fabric pattern Splendid Day DSP. I adhered the stamped panel to a Splendid Day DSP mat using Stampin’ Seal and then to the front of the small card base. I adhered 2 die cut leaves that I cut from scraps of Soft Sea Foam and Splendid Day DSP using my Splendid Stems Dies. I added a few Iridescent Rhinestone Basic Jewels to the small card base.

On another panel of the fabric Splendid Day DSP, I stamped the sentiment from the Splendid Thoughts stamp set in Soft Suede Ink. I adhered the stamped panel to a Splendid Day DSP mat using Stampin’ Seal and then to the back panel of the small card base. I adhered 2 leaves that were cut from scraps of Soft Sea Foam and Splendid Day DSP using my Splendid Stems Dies.

On the center section of the small card base I adhered a panel of Splendid Day DSP. I adhered the small card base to the large card base using Multipurpose Liquid Glue on half of the small card base front and the card base back.

On the back, I stamped the sentiment from the Stampin’ Up! Peaceful Moments Cling Stamp Set in Soft Suede Ink on a Basic White panel. I adhered the foil die cut leaf image, that I cut using my Splendid Stems Dies and a scrap of Splendid Day DSP, to the side of the panel using Multipurpose Liquid Glue. I adhered the Basic White panel to a Soft Sea Foam mat and then to the back of the Sahara Sand card base.

To finish my card, I decorated a Basic White Medium Envelope. I stamped the larger leaf image from the Splendid Thoughts stamp set in Soft Sea Foam Ink on the envelope front. I adhered a panel of Splendid Day Specialty DSP to the envelope flap.

Thank you for stopping by my blog today. I hope you liked the card we made. The products used for this card will be available July 1st from the July-December 2022 Mini Catalog. Happy Stamping!!

Stampin’ Up Splendid Thoughts Sneak Peek

Good Sunday morning my stamping friends. How is everyone’s weekend going?

Today’s card is one that we will be making at our in person quarterly team meeting today. I’ll be presenting this one to the rest of my team members via zoom. Here’s my card for today.

I used the Stampin’ Up! Splendid Thoughts Bundle along with the Splendid Day Specialty Designer Series Paper and the Stampin’ Up! Charming Sentiments Photopolymer Stamp Set for my card today.

I started by stamping the sentiment from the Stampin’ Up! Splendid Thoughts Cling Stamp Set in Evening Evergreen Ink on the top of a panel of Splendid Day DSP. I adhered the panel of DSP to a Pear Pizzazz mat. I adhered the layered panel to a Soft Sea Foam card base using Multipurpose Liquid Glue.

Using my Splendid Stems Dies, I cut the leaf dies from the panels of Evening Evergreen, Pear Pizzazz, Rich Razzleberry and Soft Sea Foam cardstock. I cut the half circle die from the strip of Splendid Day DSP.

I adhered the leaf dies to the back of the half circle die using Stampin’ Seal. I adhered the collage to the card front using Stampin’ Dimensionals. I tied a small bow using the Soft Sea Foam Seam Binding Ribbon and adhered it to the garden dish using a Glue Dot.

On the inside, I stamped the sentiment from the Charming Sentiments stamp set in Evening Evergreen Ink on a Basic White panel. I stamped the leaf images from the Splendid Thoughts stamp set in Evening Evergreen and Pear Pizzazz Ink on the bottom of the panel. I adhered the Basic White panel to a Pear Pizzazz mat and then to the inside of the Soft Sea Foam card base.

To complete my card, I decorated a Basic White Medium Envelope. I stamped 2 of the leaf images from the Splendid Thoughts stamp set on the envelope front in Evening Evergreen and Pear Pizzazz once full strength and once stamped off. I adhered a panel of the Splendid Day DSP to the envelope flap.

Thank you for stopping by my blog today. I hope you liked my card. This bundle will be available for purchase July 1st from the July-December 2022 Mini Catalog. If you are interested in joining and getting this set early, contact me. I’d be happy to talk to you. Happy Stamping!!

Stampin’ Up! Wild & Sweet Koala Fun Fold for 2022-2023 Annual Catalog Blog Hop

Good Tuesday morning my stamping friends and welcome to our 2022-2023 Annual Catalog Blog Hop. If you are hoping over from Akiko Sudano’s blog, thank you for stopping by. If you are starting with me, I hope you will hop through to see everyone’s projects and hopefully we will inspire you. We all used different sets from the upcoming catalog that goes live in just 7 days, next Tuesday YAY!!! Here’s my card for today.

I used the Stampin’ Up! Wild & Sweet Cling Stamp Set along with the Heart & Home Designer Series Paper for my fun fold card. This set doesn’t come with sentiments, so I paired it up with the Stampin’ Up! Shaded Summer Cling Stamp Set.

I started by scoring and folding the panel of Basic Gray cardstock as stated below for my Z-Fold card. I adhered a panel of Heart & Home DSP to a Smoky Slate mat and then to the card front using multipurpose Liquid Glue.

On a panel of Basic White cardstock I stamped the koala image from the Wild & Sweet stamp set in Tuxedo Black Ink. I colored the image using my Crumb Cake, Smoky Slate and Soft Succulent Stampin’ Blends Markers. I cut the image out using the 3rd largest Scalloped Contours Dies. I adhered the artwork to the card front using Stampin’ Dimensionals only on the left side of the artwork.

On a small panel of Basic Gray cardstock I stamped the sentiment from the Shaded Summer stamp set in Versamark Ink. I immediately sprinkled it with my White Embossing Powder and set it using my Heat Tool. I adhered the sentiment to the left side of the artwork using Stampin’ Dimensionals. I added a few Classic Matte Dots to the card front.

On the inside I adhered a panel of Heart & Home DSP to the right side of a Smoky Slate mat using Stampin’ Seal. On a panel of Basic White cardstock, I stamped the sentiment from the Shaded Summer stamp set in Basic Gray Ink. I adhered the Basic White panel to the left side of the Smoky Slate mat using Stampin’ Seal. I adhered the layered panel to the inside of the Basic Gray card base using Multipurpose Liquid Glue.

To complete my card, I decorated a Basic White Medium envelope. I adhered a strip of the Heart & Home DSP to the envelope front and a panel to the envelope flap.

Thank you for visiting my blog today. I hope you liked my card and will give it a try. Now that you’ve seen my card, take a minute to hop through and see everyone’s projects today. There’s a whole lot of awesomeness going on today with the hop. If you click on the Previous Arrow, you’ll hop back to Akiko’s page. If you click on the Next Blog button, you’ll go to Jaimie’s page.

Stampin’ Up! Wild & Sweet Raccoon

Good Sunday morning my stamping friends. How is everyone’s weekend going? It was a busy day yesterday at work. Everyone seems to either be painting or repairing their lawn mowers. Being that busy makes the day fly by, but by the time I get home I don’t want to do anything.

Today’s card I played with a new set from the upcoming 2022-2023 Annual Catalog and some of the beautiful DSP that will soon be retiring. Here’s my card for today.

I used the Stampin’ Up! Wild & Sweet Cling Stamp Set (available May 3rd) along with the Stampin’ Up! Celebrating You Cling Stamp Set and the Beauty of The Earth Designer Series Paper (retiring May 2nd) for my card today.

I started by adhering a panel of Beauty of The Earth DSP to a Misty Moonlight (retiring May 2nd) card base. I adhered a panel of Beauty of The Earth DSP to a Misty Moonlight mat using Stampin’ Seal. I adhered the layered panel to the card front using Multipurpose Liquid Glue.

On a panel of Basic White cardstock, I stamped the raccoon image from the Wild & Sweet stamp set in Early Espresso Ink. I colored the image using my Crumb Cake and Mossy Meadow Stampin’ Blends Markers. I adhered the stamped image to a Misty Moonlight mat and then to the card front using Stampin’ Dimensionals.

I added a few 2020-2022 In- Color Square Gems (retiring May 2nd) to the card front.

On the inside I stamped the sentiment from the Celebrating You stamp set in Early Espresso Ink on a Basic White panel. I adhered a strip of Beauty of The Earth DSP to the bottom of the panel. I adhered the Basic White panel to a Misty Moonlight mat and then to the inside of the Misty Moonlight card base.

To finish my card, I decorated a Basic White Medium Envelope. I stamped the raccoon image from the Wild & Sweet stamp set in Early Espresso Ink on the envelope front. I adhered a panel of the Beauty of The Earth DSP to the envelope flap.

Thank you for stopping by my blog today. I hope you liked my card and will give it a try. The stamp set will be available May 3rd. The DSP will be retiring as of May 2nd or while supplies last. If you really like this DSP grab it while you can. Once it’s gone, it’s gone. Happy Stamping!!

Stampin’ Up! Bottled Happiness Sneak Peek CAS

Good Saturday morning my stamping friends and welcome to the weekend. I hope you have something fun planned. I’ll be at work both today and tomorrow, and of course it’s supposed to be a beautiful weekend. Yesterday I was able to pull all my flowerpots from last summer out. I have an overhang in the back of my house where I slide all my plants under hoping they will make it through the winter. My rose bushes have green leaves on them already and my foxgloves are starting to sprout. Hopefully the weather will stay on the warmer side, so I don’t have to cover them up again.

Today’s card is a really simple one. I asked my daughter to pick colors for me to use for this one. I told her to pick 2 of the 2022-2024 In-Colors. After I was stamping with them for a minute, I realized the last card I did with In-Colors were the exact same colors. She is definitely my daughter. Here’s my card for today.

I used the Stampin’ Up! Bottled Happiness Photopolymer Stamp Set (available May 3rd) along with the Stampin’ Up! Flowering Tulips Photopolymer Stamp Set and the Tea Boutique 6 X 6 Designer Series Paper (available May 3rd) for my card today.

I started by adhering a panel of the Tea Boutique DSP to an Orchis Oasis card base using Multipurpose Liquid Glue.

On a panel of Basic White cardstock, I stamped the outline detailed bottle image form the Bottled Happiness stamp set in Parakeet Party Ink. I stamped the bottle image from the Bottled Happiness stamp set in Parakeet Party Ink, stamping off once on scrap paper, over the outlined image. I stamped the fern image from the Bottled Happiness stamp set in Orchid Oasis Ink on top of the bottle.

I stamped the sentiment from the Bottled Happiness stamp set in Orchid Oasis Ink next to the bottle. I adhered the Basic White panel to an Orchid Oasis mat using Stampin’ Seal. I adhered the layered panel to the card front using Stampin’ Dimensionals.

On the inside I stamped the sentiment from the Flowering Tulips stamp set in Orchid Oasis Ink on a Basic White panel. I stamped the fern image from the Bottled Happiness stamp set in Orchid Oasis Ink on the bottom of the panel. I adhered a strip of the Tea Boutique DSP to the bottom of the panel. I adhered the Basic White panel to a Parakeet Party mat and then to the inside of the Orchid Oasis card base.

To complete my card, I decorated a Basic White Medium Envelope. I stamped the fern image from the Bottled Happiness stamp set in Orchid Oasis on the envelope front in full strength and stamped off once. I adhered a panel of the Tea Boutique DSP to the envelope flap.

Thank you for stopping by my blog today. I hope you liked my CAS card and will give it a try. Items I used today will be available for purchase on May 3rd which is in just 10 days. Happy Stamping!!

Stampin’ Up! Happiness Abounds for Fun Fold Friday with Video Tutorial

Good Friday morning my stamping friends and Happy Earth Day! I feel the need to plant a tree today. I’d love to plant another one in my backyard, but it must be a flowering one. Welcome to my Fun Fold Friday. How are you all doing today? Are you ready for the weekend? I hope you are making some fun plans. I’ll be working all day tomorrow and I’m pretty sure all-day Sunday too.

Today’s card I made on my Facebook Live video on Wednesday. If you were able to join me or watched the replay, thank you. If you’d like to watch my video and stamp along, the measurements are below along with the links to my Facebook page and my YouTube channel. Here’s my card for today.

I used the Stampin’ Up! Happiness Abounds Photopolymer Stamp Set (available May 3rd) along with the Heart & Home Designer Series Paper for my card today.

On a piece of Vellum Paper, I stamped the rose and leaf images from the Happiness Abounds stamp set in Versamark Ink. I immediately sprinkled it with my Silver Embossing Powder and set it with my Heat Tool. I flipped the Vellum Paper over to the non-embossed side and colored the images using my Parakeet Party and Sweet Sorbet Stampin’ Blends Markers (available May 3rd).

I folded my card base on the scored line. I adhered the smaller Basic Gray panel to the back of the top flap using Stampin’ Seal. I adhered the panel of Blushing Bride cardstock to the front or the gray panel using Stampin’ Seal. I adhered the Vellum panel to the Blushing Bride panel only where the sentiment will be adhered using Stampin’ Seal and a couple Glue Dots on the top under the ribbon.

On the strip of Basic Gray cardstock I stamped the sentiment from the Happiness Abounds stamp set in Versamark Ink. I immediately sprinkled it with my White Embossing Powder and set it using my Heat Tool. I adhered the sentiment to the Vellum panel using Stampin’ Dimensionals. I wrapped a piece of Sweet Sorbet 1/8″ Metallic Ribbon (available May 3rd) around the top card flap and tied a bow. I added a few Iridescent Rhinestone Basic Jewels to the card front.

I adhered a panel of Heart & Home DSP to the inside of the Basic Gray card base. On a panel of Basic White cardstock, I stamped the sentiment from the Happiness Abounds stamp set in Basic Gray Ink. I stamped the rose images from the Happiness Abounds stamp set in Blushing Bride Ink. I adhered the Basic Whtie panel to the inside of the card base under the outer flap using Multipurpose Liquid Glue.

To finish my card, I decorated a Basic White Medium Envelope. I stamped the rose images from the Happiness Abounds stamp set in tuxedo Black Ink on the envelope front. I colored the images in using my Parakeet Party and Sweet Sorbet Stampin’ Blends Markers. I adhered a panel of Heart & Home DSP on the envelope flap.

Thank you for stopping by my blog today. I hope you liked my card and will give it a try. Some of the items used for today’s card will be available May 3rd. I hope you will CASE this card and please feel free to post it in the comments of my Facebook page under my post. I’d love to see your take on the card. The list of measurements are below if you’d like to stamp along while watching the video. You can watch my video on my Facebook page Here.

Stampin’ Up! Fresh Cut Flowers Sneak Peek for Amy’s Inkin’ Krew Team Blog Hop

Good Tuesday morning my fellow stampers. Welcome to Amy’s Inkin’ Krew Team Blog Hop. It’s the 2nd Tuesday of the month so that means Blog Hop Day!! If you are starting with me, be sure to hop around to see everyone’s amazing projects. If you’ve hopped over from Amy Koenders’ blog, welcome to my blog and thank you for stopping by. The theme this month is “For The Ladies/Girls”.  We can interpret this however we want.  Here’s my card for today.

I used the new Stampin’ Up! Fresh Cut Flowers Cling Stamp Set along with the new Fabulous Frames Dies from the upcoming 2022-2023 Annual Catalog for my card today.

I started by adhering a panel of Mint Macaron Subtle 6 X 6 Designer Series Paper to a Mint Macaron card base. I stamped the large floral image from the Fresh Cut Flowers stamp set in Tuxedo Black Ink on a panel of Basic White cardstock. I colored the image in using my Mint Macaron and Pale Papaya Stampin’ Blends Markers.

I cut the image out using the largest frame from the Fabulous Frames Dies. This die cuts out the image and cuts a frame at the same time. I adhered the cut floral image to the card front using Multipurpose Liquid Glue. I adhered the frame to the card front, lining it up with the artwork, using Stampin’ Dimensionals.

I added a few Mint Macaron Genial Gems to the card front.

On the inside I stamped the sentiment from the Stampin’ Up! Inspired Thoughts Cling Stamp Set in Tuxedo Black Ink on a Basic White panel. I stamped the floral image from the Fresh Cut Flowers stamp set on the bottom of the panel in Tuxedo Black Ink and colored it using my Mint Macaron and Pale Papaya Stampin’ Blends Markers. I adhered the Basic White panel to a Mint Macaron mat and then to the inside of the Mint Macaron card base.

To complete my card, I decorated a Basic Whtie Medium Envelope. I stamped the floral image from the Fresh Cut Flowers stamp set in Tuxedo Black Ink on the envelope front and colored it using my Mint Macaron and Pale Papaya Stampin’ Blends Markers. I adhered a panel of the Subtle DSP to the envelope flap.

Thank you for visiting by my blog today, I hope you liked my card and will give it a try. Now that you’ve seen my card, be sure to hop around to see everyone’s beautiful projects. Hit Previous to hop back to Amy Koenders’ blog or hit Next to head over to Akiko Sudano’s blog. You can also click on each of the names and hop around that way.

Stampin’ Up! Wild & Sweet CAS Sneak Peek

Good Monday morning my stamping friends. How was everyone’s weekend? It was very rainy here and it got cold again. Just when I thought spring was here it changed back.

I have a sneak peek for you today from the upcoming 2022-2023 Annual Catalog. Before I forget, if you are a customer of mine, be watching your mail. I was able to get to the post office on Friday before they closed and got your catalogs in the mail. If you are not a customer of mine yet and would like to be and would like a catalog, please send me a note at creativestampingdesigns@gmail.com and I’ll get one in the mail to you. Here’s my card for today.

I used the new Stampin’ Up! Wild & Sweet Cling Stamp Set along with the retiring Pattern Party Host Designer Series Paper for my card today.

I started by adhering a panel of Pattern Party DSP to a Basic Black card base. This is a Hose Exclusive pack of DSP that will be retiring May 2nd.

On a panel of Basic White cardstock, I stamped the panda image from the Wild & Sweet stamp set in Tuxedo Black Ink. I cut the image out using the 3rd largest Stitched Rectangle Dies. Using the 2nd largest Stitched Rectangle Die I cut a panel of Basic Black cardstock. I adhered the artwork to the Basic Black rectangle using Stampin’ Seal.

I adhered the layered panel to the card front using Stampin’ Dimensionals. I added a few Black Matte Dots to the card front.

On the inside I stamped the sentiment from the Stampin’ Up! On The Horizon Cling Stamp Set in Tuxedo Black Ink on a Basic White panel. I adhered a strip of the Pattern Party DSP to the bottom of the panel. I adhered the Basic White panel to a Pattern Party DSP mat and then to the inside of the Basic Black card base.

To finish my card, I decorated a Basic White Medium Envelope. I adhered a strip of the Pattern Party DSP to the envelope front and a panel to the envelope flap.

Thank you for stopping by my blog today. I hope you liked my card with the new stamp set and might be adding this one to your wish list too. It makes nice quick and easy cards. Happy Stamping!!

Stampin’ Up! Cup Of Tea Sneak Peek Video Tutorial for Fun Fold Friday

Good Friday morning my stamping friends welcome to my fun fold Friday. How are you all doing today? Are you ready for the weekend? I’ll be working just Saturday this weekend, they gave me off Sunday, YAY!!! My catalogs should be here today, YAY!! I will get them packed up and shipped out just as soon as I can. Luckily my post office is open until 7pm, so I should be able to get them out today. If you are a customer of mine, be watching your mail in the next week.

Today’s card I made on my Facebook Live video on Wednesday using all new products from the 2022-2023 Annual Catalog. If you were able to join me or watched the replay, thank you. If you’d like to watch my video and stamp along, the measurements are below along with the links to my Facebook page and my YouTube channel. Here’s my card for today.

I used the new Stampin’ Up! Cup of Tea Bundle along with the Tea Boutique 6 X 6 Designer Series Paper for my card today. All the items used are in the new 2022-2023 Annual Catalog and will be available on May 3, 2022.

I started by scoring and folding a panel of Orchis Oasis cardstock as listed below. I adhered 2 panels of the teapot design from the Tea Boutique DSP to Parakeet Party mats and then to the Orchid Oasis card front.

Using my Teacup Dies, I cut the solid teacup from a panel of Orchid Oasis cardstock. I cut the details teacup from a panel of Parakeet Party cardstock. I stamped the teabag tag image from the Stampin’ Up! Cup Of Tea Photopolymer Stamp Set on a panel of Basic White cardstock in Parakeet Party Ink and the sentiment in Orchis Oasis Ink. I cut the tag out using my Teacup Dies. I adhered a small piece of the Orchid Oasis 1/8″ Metallic Woven Ribbon to the back of the teacup and to the tag using a Glue Dot. You can’t see it until the last picture, but I stamped the teabag tag twice and adhered them together so it would have a back and front. I added a 2021-2023 In-Color Jewel to the teabag tag.

I adhered 2 smaller panels of Tea Boutique DSP to the sides of a Parakeet Party card base. I adhered the folded card base to the Parakeet Party card base using Multipurpose Liquid Glue.

On the inside I adhered 2 panels of the Tea Boutique DSP to Parakeet Party mats and then to the inside side panels of the card base. I stamped the sentiment from the Cup of Tea stamp set in Orchid Oasis Ink on a Basic White panel. I stamped the teacup image from the Cup of Tea stamp set in Tuxedo Black Ink on the bottom of the panel and colored it using my Orchid Oasis and Parakeet Party Stampin’ Blends Markers. I adhered the Basic White panel to a Parakeet Party mat and then to the inside of the Orchis Oasis card base.

To finish my card, I decorated a Basic White Medium Envelope. I stamped the teacup image from the Cup of Tea stamp set in Tuxedo Black Ink on the envelope front. I stamped the teabag tag in Parakeet Party Ink and the sentiment on the tag in Orchid Oasis Ink. I colored the teacup in using my Orchid Oasis and Parakeet Party Stampin’ Blends Markers. I adhered a panel of the Tea Boutique DSP to the envelope flap.

Thank you for stopping by my blog today. I hope you liked my card and will give it a try. Maybe this suite or bundle is on your shopping list? How about the new cardstock colors? I’d be more than happy to help you out with getting them. If you need a catalog, please contact me and I will get one in the mail to you ASAP.

Good Sunday morning my stamping friends. How is everyone’s weekend going? I had my OnTour event yesterday and it was fun seeing some of the new products being used. I can’t wait for mine to arrive. I’ll be at work all day today having fun petting puppies and giving them treats.

I have a sneak peek for you today. I received a stamp set for attending OnTour and I couldn’t wait to play with it. I made a clean and simple card using just Stamps, Ink and Paper (along with a little embellishment). I also did the masking technique. Here’s my card for today.

I used the new Stampin’ Up! Bottled Happiness Photopolymer Stamp Set for my CAS card today.

I started by cutting a Post-It Note using the 2nd smallest hexagon die from the Beautiful Shapes Dies. I adhered the hexagon Post-It Note to the center of a Basic White card front. Using my Blending Brush, I added Blushing Bride Ink

I stamped the leaf image from the Bottled Happiness stamp set in Just Jade Ink on either side of the hexagon mask. I stamped the floral image from the Bottled Happiness stamp set on the leaf images in Misty Moonlight Ink.

I removed the hexagon Post-It and stamped the sentiment from the Bottled Happiness stamp set in Misty Moonlight Ink. I added a few Blushing Bride Adhesive-Backed Hexagons to the card front. I adhered the card front to a Just Jade mat and then to a Misty Moonlight mat. I adhered the layered panel to a Blushing Bride card base using Stampin’ Dimensionals.

On the inside I stamped the sentiment from the Stampin’ Up! Biggest Wish Photopolymer Stamp Set in Misty Moonlight Ink on a Basic White panel. I stamped the leaf image from the Bottled Happiness stamp set in Just Jade Ink on the Basic White panel. I stamped the floral image from the Bottled Happiness stamp set over the leaf image in Misty Moonlight Ink. I adhered the Basic White panel to a Misty Moonlight mat and then to the inside of the Blushing Bride card base.

To finish my card, I decorated a Basic White Medium Envelope. I stamped the floral images from the Bottled Happiness stamp set in Just Jade and Misty Moonlight Inks on the envelope front. I adhered a panel of Subtle 6 X 6 Designer Series Paper to the envelope flap.

Thank you for stopping by my blog today. I hope you liked my CAS card and might just have this set on your shopping list. I’ll be making more with it very soon. Happy Stamping!!

Stampin’ Up! New Shipping Fees Beginning April 1

I want to let you know about a change to Stampin’ Up!’s shipping and handling pricing.  Starting April 1, the minimum shipping charge will increase by $1.00, from $6.95 to $7.95—or by one percentage point, from 10% to 11% of the total order amount—whichever is greater.

If you ever use the expedited shipping options, those fees are going up a bit too.  Here are the new fees for expedited shipping:

  • Next Day Upgrade: $38.00 USD ($3.00 USD increase from the previous rate)
  • 2nd Day Upgrade: $23.00 USD ($3.00 USD increase from the previous rate)
  • 3 Day Shipping Upgrade: $15.00 USD ($5.00 USD increase from the previous rate)
  • The expedited shipping option rates above are calculated in addition to the standard shipping rate (e.g., the next day shipping option would cost $7.95 USD or 11%—whichever is greater—plus $38.00 USD)

I want to make sure you’re aware of this change, as it impacts both you and me.  Stampin’ Up! has worked to keep the increase as minimal as possible so they can continue bringing you the unique, high-quality, and coordinated paper crafting products that you love.
