The 2025 – 2026 Annual Catalog is coming soon. I ordered my catalogs and they should be arriving today!!! I will be shipping them out to all my customers just as quickly as possible. To be a customer of mine, you need to have placed an order with me within the last year and you will automatically receive the catalog.

NEW Stampin’ Up! Reward Program Coming in April 15th

Stampin’ Up! will be updating their Reward Program starting April 15th. The current Stampin’ Rewards program that Stampin’ Up! has had for many years will be going away in mid-April.  You’ll soon be able to earn Stampin’ Rewards on smaller orders!  Here are the basics:

This does mean that my $10 thank you gifts will also be going away on April 15 since I used the host rewards to “purchase” those gifts for everyone.  But since you’ll be earning 10% back in rewards directly from Stampin’ Up! with every order of $20+, you’re going to be able to cash in those rewards for anything that you’d like on any order that you’d like to use them on!

You’ll no longer need to place a large order of $150+ to earn free product like you do with the current Stampin’ Rewards system. 

Starting April 15 at 8 AM MT and moving forward, you will earn 10% rewards with orders of $20+!! So if you place an order of $50, you’ll earn a $5 reward to use the next time you shop!

You can save your rewards for up to a year!  So you can spend them on a future order all at once or a little at at time. 

Additionally, the “host code” will be going away, so beginning April 15, you’ll no longer need to apply my current host code to your order.

What won’t be changing:
My Creative Stamping Designs Rewards program will not be changing.  So, no worries there!  You’ll still continue to earn reward points toward free Stampin’ Up! merchandise from me with every order of $50+!  And any points/rewards/gifts that you’ve collected from me up until this point will still be valid.  You won’t be losing out on anything that you’ve earned from me, and you’ll continue to earn points toward free merchandise with every order of $50+ just like you do now.  

What should you know now to prepare for these changes?
Here are a few things that you can do to make the transition to the new program as smooth as possible:

  • You need to have a Stampin’ Up! online store account at stampinup.com so you can earn and redeem rewards.
    • I will not be able to create and manage customer accounts.  I’ll be able to help you with ordering if you need me.  But because of stricter banking policies and data/privacy laws, you need to officially be in charge of your own customer account for earning & redeeming rewards.  So make sure you can log in at stampinup.com.
  • You will need to opt into the program to earn and redeem Stampin’ Rewards.  When you place your first order after April 15, you’ll have the option to opt into the new rewards program.  If you choose not to opt in with your first order, you’ll have the option to opt in at any point when you order after that.
  • If you don’t want a Stampin’ Up! online store account, you can still order SU products through me. You just won’t receive the Stampin’ Rewards directly for your purchases.  I’ll receive the rewards and I’ll need to apply them to future orders for you.
  • If you don’t want to opt into the rewards program, you don’t have to opt in.  You can still order; you just won’t receive the Stampin’ Rewards for your purchases.

Again, these changes will begin April 15th at 8 AM Mountain Time.  I’m notifying you a little early so that you are ready for these changes.  Let me know if you have any questions.  I’m excited for you all to start earning rewards on orders of $20+ soon!

Paper Pumpkin Moved!!

If you haven’t claimed your Paper Pumpkin do so today. Even though you already may have a Paper Pumpkin Subscription, you must go to my Online Store, click on Paper Pumpkin and Manage My Subscription.

Beginning April 11, Paper Pumpkin is increasing its subscription prices to accommodate rising manufacturing costs. All new subscriptions purchased on or after April 11 will be at the new price. 
In addition, starting Tuesday, April 15, Paper Pumpkin subscriptions will qualify for rewards through the new Stampin’ Rewards program.
The first kit at the new price, the May Mountain Majesties Kit, will bill on May 11 at 12:01 a.m. (MT). 

Paper Pumpkin accounts will no longer be managed on a separate website at paperpumpkin.com.  It’s all going to merge with the stampinup.com site!

Starting March 11th at 8 AM MT, you’ll only need to log into your Stampin’ Up! online store account at stampinup.com to start or manage your Paper Pumpkin subscription! 

Initially you will need to “claim” your paperpumpkin.com account in the subscriptions area of your Stampin’ Up! online store account.  So be sure you know and can access the email that your Paper Pumpkin account is currently under (claiming can occur on or after March 11th).  Then you will have full access to all the editing options.

Click here for an informative PDF and click here for a video on managing your account(s).

Prepaid subscriptions are also changing a bit.  The One Month Prepaid subscription is going away since gifting will be so much easier (check out the video for the details!).  There will no longer be a slight discount with the 6 and 12 month subscriptions.  But with the new customer rewards program you will earn when purchasing the new 3, 6 or 12 month prepaid subscriptions!

Yay for an easier way to manage your Paper Pumpkin subscription coming very soon!!

Stampin’ Up! Poised Peony for The Card Concepts

Good Wednesday morning my stamping friends. How is everyone doing today? We’re halfway through the week and on our way to the weekend already.

Today’s card is for the inspiration challenge from The Card Concepts. We do a month-long challenge, so you have all month to enter multiple times.  The inspiration photo #214 is Valentine Fun. If you’d like to see a quick video on how I made this card, Click Here for my Instagram Reels. Here is my card that was inspired from the challenge photo.

Stampin' Up! Poised Peony Birthday 1 creativestampingdesigns.com

I used the Stampin’ Up! Poised Peony Cling Stamp Set along with the Stampin’ Up! Bird’s Eye View Photopolymer Stamp Set, Country Lace Designer Series Paper and Memorable Blooms Dies for my Clean and Simple card today. I was inspired by the flowers and books in the inspiration photo.

I hope you will take a moment to visit The Card Concepts and join us for our challenge 214.  How are you inspired by the photos?

Stampin' Up! Poised Peony Birthday 2 creativestampingdesigns.com

Stampin' Up! Poised Peony Birthday 3 creativestampingdesigns.com

On a panel of Basic Beige stamp the book image from the Bird’s Eye View stamp set in Pecan Pie Ink. Mask the images and stamp the large flower image from the Poised Peony stamp set in Pecan Pie Ink. Color the images using Crumb Cake, Old Olive, Pecan Pie, Petal Pink and Wild Wheat Stampin’ Blends Markers. Cut the image out using the Memorable Blooms Dies. Adhere the artwork to the card front using Stampin’ Dimensionals.

Stampin' Up! Poised Peony Birthday 4 creativestampingdesigns.com

On the panel of Basic Beige, stamp the sentiment from the Poised Peony stamp set in Pecan Pie Ink. Fussy cut the sentiment using Paper Snips. Adhere the sentiment to the card front using Stampin’ Dimensionals. Add a few Petal Pink Foiled Gems and Adhesive-Backed Heart Sequins to the card front. I added a tiny heart to the book binding.

Stampin' Up! Poised Peony Birthday 5 creativestampingdesigns.com

On a panel of Basic Beige, stamp the sentiment from the Poised Peony stamp set in Pecan Pie Ink. Stamp the medium flower image from the Poised Peony stamp set on the bottom of the panel. Stamp the book image from Bird’s Eye View stamp set in Pecan Pie. Color the images using Old Olive, Pecan Pie, Petal Pink and Wild Wheat Stampin’ Blends Markers. Adhere the Basic Beige panel to a Pecan Pie mat then to the inside of the Basic Beige card base.

Stampin' Up! Poised Peony Birthday 6 creativestampingdesigns.com

To complete the card, decorate a Basic White Medium Envelope. Stamp the medium flower image from the Poised Peony stamp set and book from the Bird’s Eye View stamp set in Pecan Pie Ink on the envelope front. Color the images using Crumb Cake, Old Olive, Petal Pink and Wild Wheat Stampin’ Blends Markers. Adhere a panel of Country Lace DSP to the envelope flap.

In response to changing policies at Stampin’ Up – I’m adjusting my Ordering Gift policy as well.  I’m having to get a little more tough on the adding of Host codes when you place your order thru my Online Store.

Not to worry – you’re still going to get that $10 ordering gift for orders of $50 (before shipping & tax) or greater.  And the gift is still any 1 SU! product up to that $10 value.

But – if you DO NOT use the Host code for your orders of less than $150 (this is the RETAIL total before Shipping & Handling), then you’ll have two options:

  1. You’ll need to call Stampin’ Up! (1-800-Stamp-Up) and ask them to add it for you. They’re very helpful and will get it done quickly!  OR….
  2. If your order was over the $50 threshold but under $150, then…you’ll forfeit that $10 ordering gift and rewards – this is the Bummer Option – and I REALLY don’t want to do this, SO please remember to add my Current Host Code.

*********************************************************************************************************

In response to changing policies at Stampin’ Up – I’m adjusting my Ordering Gift policy as well.  I’m having to get a little more tough on the adding of Host codes when you place your order thru my Online Store.

Not to worry – you’re still going to get that $10 ordering gift for orders of $50 (before shipping & tax) or greater.  And the gift is still any 1 SU! product up to that $10 value.

But – if you DO NOT use the Host code for your orders of less than $150 (this is the RETAIL total before Shipping & Handling), then you’ll have two options:

  1. You’ll need to call Stampin’ Up! (1-800-Stamp-Up) and ask them to add it for you. They’re very helpful and will get it done quickly!  OR….
  2. If your order was over the $50 threshold but under $150, then…you’ll forfeit that $10 ordering gift and rewards – this is the Bummer Option – and I REALLY don’t want to do this, SO please remember to add my Current Host Code.

Stampin’ Up! January-April 2025 Mini Catalog and Online Exclusive Paper & Ribbon Shares Open for Ordering

My January-April 2025 Mini Catalog and January Online Exclusive Designer Series Paper and Ribbon Shares are open for ordering. You can order just the DSP share, just the ribbon share or you can order both.

I’m offering a Designer Series Paper share from the January-April 2025 Mini Catalog along with the upcoming January Online Exclusives and I’d love to have you join!!  I’m placing my share order early on January 7th 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 January 12th. Wouldn’t you love to have all of the gorgeous new Designer Series Papers in the Stampin’ Up! January-April 2025 Mini Catalog and the upcoming Online Exclusives?  What is a Paper Share you ask? It’s a sample of each of the new Designer Series Papers from the January-April 2025 Mini Catalog and the January 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 DSP in the new Catalog and Online Exclusives, it would cost you over $130.00 plus shipping and if you were to purchase all the ribbon it would cost you over $38.00.

New Designer Series Paper Share – $21.00 plus $9.00 for Priority Mail Shipping

How my shares work:  I order full packs of all of the Designer Series 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 – $21.00 plus $9.00 for Priority Mail shipping

You will receive one 6X6 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):

  • Beautiful Bokeh (6)
  • Floral Delight (6)
  • Floral Gingham Vellum (3)

  • Timeless Plaid (12)
  • Wildflower Birthday (5)

  • Mixed Media Florals (6) Online Exclusive
  • Pastel Ombre Glimmer (3) Online Exclusive

In all, you’ll receive 65 – 6” X 6” sheets of designer or specialty paper!

Double DSP Share – $42.00 + $9.00 Shipping by Priority Mail – if you’d like double shares of the designer paper, I’m offering those too!  I’ll cut the 12″ X 12″ designer paper sheets into 6″ X 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.

New Ribbon Share – $11.00 plus $9.00 Priority Mail Shipping

All ribbons will come individually wrapped and labeled with the name and number of the product. Please note that ribbons are being divided differently, you will be getting one fourth of a roll of each of the Ribbons.

One-Fourth of a Roll of each:

  • Daffodil Delight 1/8″ Satin Ribbon
  • Gold 1 1/2″ Open Weave Trim

$32.00 for a single share + $9.00 shipping

$64.00 for a double share + $9.00 shipping.

As a Thank You for joining in with my Shares, I’ll be adding a sampling of the Sale-a-bration Designer Series Paper. I’m not sure which ones you’ll be getting yet, but there are 3 different one’s that will be available. Which one(s) you get will be a surprise.

Stampin’ Up! Terrific Toadstool for Fun Fold Friday

Good Friday afternoon stamping friends and welcome to my fun fold Friday. I hope you are all starting to make plans for the weekend.

Today’s card isn’t really a fun fold, it’s more of a window card. I have a sneak peek for you today of products coming in the January-April 2025 Mini Catalog and the Sale-a-bration Brochure.

Punch all the images out using the Terrific Toadstools Builder Punch. Adhere the stems to the mushrooms. Adhere the Poppy Parade mushroom using Glue Dots.

My January-April 2025 Mini Catalog and January Online Exclusive Designer Series Paper and Ribbon Shares are open for ordering. You can order just the DSP share, just the ribbon share or you can order both.

I’m offering a Designer Series Paper share from the January-April 2025 Mini Catalog along with the upcoming January Online Exclusives and I’d love to have you join!!  I’m placing my share order early on January 7th 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 January 12th. Wouldn’t you love to have all of the gorgeous new Designer Series Papers in the Stampin’ Up! January-April 2025 Mini Catalog and the upcoming Online Exclusives?  What is a Paper Share you ask? It’s a sample of each of the new Designer Series Papers from the January-April 2025 Mini Catalog and the January 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 DSP in the new Catalog and Online Exclusives, it would cost you over $130.00 plus shipping and if you were to purchase all the ribbon it would cost you over $38.00.

New Designer Series Paper Share – $21.00 plus $9.00 for Priority Mail Shipping

How my shares work:  I order full packs of all of the Designer Series 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 – $21.00 plus $9.00 for Priority Mail shipping

You will receive one 6X6 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):

  • Beautiful Bokeh (6)
  • Floral Delight (6)
  • Floral Gingham Vellum (3)
  • Friends of the Ocean (6)
  • Storybook Moments (6)
  • Timeless Plaid (12)
  • Wildflower Birthday (5)
  • Everyday Skies (12) Online Exclusive
  • Mixed Media Florals (6) Online Exclusive
  • Pastel Ombre Glimmer (3) Online Exclusive

In all, you’ll receive 65 – 6” X 6” sheets of designer or specialty paper!

Double DSP Share – $42.00 + $9.00 Shipping by Priority Mail – if you’d like double shares of the designer paper, I’m offering those too!  I’ll cut the 12″ X 12″ designer paper sheets into 6″ X 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.

New Ribbon Share – $11.00 plus $9.00 Priority Mail Shipping

All ribbons will come individually wrapped and labeled with the name and number of the product. Please note that ribbons are being divided differently, you will be getting one fourth of a roll of each of the Ribbons.

One-Fourth of a Roll of each:

  • Daffodil Delight 1/8″ Satin Ribbon
  • Gold 1 1/2″ Open Weave Trim
  • Petal Pink 3/8″ Scalloped Ribbon
  • White 1/2″ Woven Ribbon Online Exclusive

Double Ribbon Share – $22.00 + $9.00 Priority Mail Shipping – If you’d like double shares of the Ribbon, you will be getting 1/2 of the roll or each ribbon.

If you would like the Designer Series Paper Share & the Ribbon Share the cost will be:

$32.00 for a single share + $9.00 shipping

$64.00 for a double share + $9.00 shipping.

As a Thank You for joining in with my Shares, I’ll be adding a sampling of the Sale-a-bration Designer Series Paper. I’m not sure which ones you’ll be getting yet, but there are 3 different one’s that will be available. Which one(s) you get will be a surprise.

Stampin’ Up! Greetings of The Season

Good Saturday morning stamping friends and welcome to the weekend. I hope you are all have some plans in the works. I’ll be working all day today and I’m hoping to start the Christmas decorating process a little tomorrow. Yesterday and last night I was able to completely un-decorate my house. Those of you that know me, know that I pack everything away for the holidays from Knick Knacks to pictures and pillows. I rearrange furniture and move some out of the room to fit my Christmas decorations and tree. My house is like walking into Christmas land.

Today’s card was designed by Karen Ilsley for our retreat last weekend. It’s such a beautiful Christmas card and I couldn’t wait to make it. Here’s my card for today.

Stampin' Up! Greetings Of The Season 1 creativestampingdesigns.com

I used the Stampin’ Up! Online Exclusive Greetings of the Season Photopolymer Stamp Set along with the Stampin’ Up! Golden Greenery Photopolymer Stamp Set, Season of Green &Gold Specialty Designer Series Paper, Spotlight on Nature Dies, Distressed Tile 3D Embossing Folder, Brushed Silver & Gold Specialty Paper, Stylish Shapes Dies and 2 3/8″ Circle Punch for my card today.

Stampin' Up! Greetings Of The Season 2 creativestampingdesigns.com

Emboss a panel of Mossy Meadow using the Distressed Tile EF. Adhere the embossed panel to a Very Vanilla card base using Liquid Glue. Adhere a strip of Garden Green to the side of the embossed panel using Liquid Glue. Adhere a panel of Season of Green & Gold DSP to a Soft Sea Foam mat using Stampin’ Seal. Adhere the layered panel to the card front using Stampin’ Dimensionals.

Stampin' Up! Greetings Of The Season 3 creativestampingdesigns.com

Using the Stylish Shapes Dies, cut panels of Old Olive and Mossy Meadow with the square dies. Adhere them together using Stampin’ Seal. Adhere them to the card front using Liquid Glue on the left side and Stampin’ Dimensionals on the right side. On a panel of Soft Sea Foam, stamp the sentiment from the Greetings of the Season stamp set in Mossy Meadow Ink. Cut the sentiment out using the Spotlight on Nature Dies. Using the 2 3/8″ Punch, cut a circle from a panel of Brushed Gold paper. Adhere the sentiment to the gold mat using Liquid Glue. Adhere the layered sentiment to the die cut squares using Stampin’ Dimensionals.

Stampin' Up! Greetings Of The Season 4 creativestampingdesigns.com

Tie a piece of the Very Vanilla 3/4″ Satin Ribbon using Gold Twisted Thread. Adhere it to the card front using a Glue Dot. Add a few gold Blooming Pearls to the card front.

Stampin' Up! Greetings Of The Season 5 creativestampingdesigns.com

On a panel of Very Vanilla, stamp the sentiment from the Greetings of the Season stamp set in Mossy Meadow Ink. Adhere a strip of Season of Green & Gold DSP to the side of the panel. Adhere the Very Vanilla panel to an Old Olive mat then to the inside of the Very Vanilla card base.

Stampin' Up! Greetings Of The Season 6 creativestampingdesigns.com

Finish the card by decorating a Basic White Medium Envelope. Stamp the detailed leaf image from the Golden Greenery stamp set in Mossy Meadow Ink on the envelope front. Stamp the solid leaf image from the Golden Greenery stamp set in Old Olive Ink over the detailed image. Adhere a panel of Season of Green & Gold DSP to the envelope flap.
