Good Monday morning stamping friends and HAPPY NEW YEAR!!! Welcome to a new week, a new month and a New Year. Did everyone have a nice new year’s? What did you all do? We made a bunch of appetizers, watched a movie and just relaxed. My daughter is still recovering from covid, so it was a very quiet night. I spent a little time in my craft studio and thinking about some changes or resolutions I’d like to accomplish this year. Every year on New Year’s Day I clean, reorganize and rearrange my craft space. I’m not sure that is going to get done this year since I just moved into this space a few months ago.
I played with the new stencil from the upcoming catalog for today’s card. This time I used it without stamping first. 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.
I used the Stampin’ Up! Perennial Postage Cling Stamp Set along with the Stampin’ Up! enduring Beauty Decorative Masks. Enduring Beauty Dies, (all available Jan 4) Deckled Rectangle Dies and Online Exclusive One Horse Open Sleigh 6 X 6 Designer Series Paper for my card today.
I started by adhering a panel of One Horse Open Sleigh DSP to a Basic White Thick card base using Liquid Glue. I cut another panel of One Horse Open Sleigh DSP using the 2nd largest Deckled Rectangle Dies. I adhered the die cut panel to the center of the card front using Liquid Glue.
On a panel of Basic White, I started with #1 stencil form the Enduring Beauty Decorative Masks, using the Blending Brush, I added Poppy Parade Ink. Next, I used Lemon Lime Twist with the Blending Brush and Stencil #2. Stencil #3 I used the Blending Brush with Poppy Parade Ink again and Stencil #4 I used Lemon Lime Twist Ink with the Blending Brush again. Lastly, I used Stencil #5 with Pecan Pie Ink and the Blending Brush. I cut the image out using the Enduring Beauty Dies. I adhered the floral image to the card front using Stampin’ Dimensionals.
On a panel of Basic White, I stamped the sentiment from the Perennial Postage stamp set in Pecan Pie Ink. I cut the sentiment out using the Enduring Beauty Dies. I adhered 1/8″ Lemon Lime Twist Ribbon from the Ribbon Duo Pack, to the back of the sentiment using Stampin’ Seal. I adhered the sentiment to the card front using Stampin’ Dimensionals and Glue Dots. I added a few Iridescent Foil Gems (available Jan 4) to the card front.
On the inside, I stamped the sentiment from the Perennial Postage stamp set in Pecan Pie Ink on a panel of Basic Whtie. I adhered 2 thin strips of One Horse Open Sleigh DSP to either side of the panel I adhered the Basic White panel to a Poppy Parade mat then to the inside of the Basic White Thick card base.
To finish my card, I decorated a Basic White Medium Envelope. I adhered a strip of the One Horse Open Sleigh DSP to the envelope front and a panel to the envelope flap.
Thank you for stopping by my blog today. I hope you like the card and will give it a try. Happy Stamping!!

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 – which includes some of our fun Host Sets!
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:
- 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….
- 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.

Tomorrow is the last day to Join my January-April 2024 Mini Catalog Paper Shares
Do you want all of the gorgeous new Designer Series Papers and pretty Ribbon in the January-April 2024 Mini Catalog but can’t afford everything? I’m doing a Designer Series Paper Share and a Ribbon Share! What is a Paper Share and a Ribbon Share you ask? It’s a sample of each of the new Designer Series Papers and the Ribbon from the Stampin’ Up! January-April 2024 Minil Catalog. If you were to purchase all of the DSP and Ribbon in the new Mini Catalog, it would cost you over $141.00 plus shipping.
New Designer Series Paper Share – $15.00 plus $8.50 for Priority Mail Shipping
I’m offering a Designer Series Paper share from the Stampin’ Up! January-April 2024 Mini Catalog and I’d love to have you join!! I’m placing my share order early on January 4th. 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 15th.
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 Name, Item # and Colors in the pack and mail it back out to you just as quickly as I can! Shares give you a good working sample of all of the papers so that you can decide which ones to order in full packs!
New Designer Series Paper Share – $15.00 plus $8.50 for Priority Mail shipping
You will receive one 6×6 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):
- Bee Mine – 6
- Forever Love – 6
- Just Kiddin’ -6
- Light Than Air 6″ X 6″ – 8
- Nature’s Sweetest – 6
- Perennial Lavender – 6
- Poetic Expressions – 6
- Rock & Roll – 6
In all, you’ll receive 50 – 6” x 6” sheets of designer or specialty paper!
Double DSP Share – $30 + $8.50 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″ × 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.
As a Thank you gift for joining in on my paper share, I will be including a sampling of some of the new Sale-a-bration DSP that will be available with qualifying orders. I believe there are 5 different DSPs in the Sale-a-bration catalog. I’m not sure yet which ones I’ll be including, it might be 1, 3 or all 5.
New Ribbon Share – $10.00 plus $8.50 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 or Baker’s Twine.

Double Ribbon Share – $20 + $8.50 Priority Mail Shipping – If you’d like double shares of the Ribbon, you will be getting 1/2 of the roll or each ribbon and baker’s twine.
