Stampin’ Up! Filled with Sweetness for Fun Fold Friday

Posted on March 6, 2026 by Karen Ksenzakovic

Good Friday morning stamping friends, welcome to my fun fold Friday. I hope you all had a great week and are looking forward to the weekend. We went from one extreme to another here in NJ. We’re getting ready to float away with all the rain we’re having, yet we still have snow on the ground. I was hoping that March would come in really windy to dry up the ground a little.

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.

Stampin' Up! Filled with Sweetness Fun Fold 1 creativestampingdesigns.com

I used the Stampin’ Up! Filled With Sweetness Bundle along with the Homemade Sweetness Designer Series Paper and Made With Sweetness Dies for my card today.

Good Sunday morning stamping friends. I hope you’re having a great weekend. It’s a rainy wet one here in NJ. They said we’re supposed to have a mix of rain and snow today, that means I’m staying in ALL day. I’ll be cutting more of my product shares up today and hopefully starting to pack some of them up.

I played with a new embossing folder with older DSP and new bundle for today’s card which went together pretty quickly. Here’s my card for today.

Add a few of the Clear Gems from the Strawberry Slush & Pretty in Pink Gems to the card front.

Stampin’ Up! Nature’s Symphony

Posted on November 26, 2025 by Karen Ksenzakovic

Good Wednesday morning stamping friends, Happy Thanksgiving Eve. Today’s the day for me to do all the prepping for our dinner tomorrow. I’ll be making my pies and cutting up veggies to get a head start. I’ll be getting up bright and early to get started making my pumpkin crescent rolls tomorrow morning. They take 3 risings at about 2 hours each, so I need to get the messy part over so they can do their thing in a warm place. Up until yesterday I forgot all about making them and that’s one thing my family won’t let me forget. I actually have to triple the recipe they love them that much.

I have a sneak peek for you today at some products coming in January 2026. If you’re one of my customers, you’ll be getting hat catalog in your hands real soon. 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.
