Stampin’ Up! Springy Inside Gatefold with Glow of Harvest DSP & NEW Tile Garden Bundle

It’s Friday – where did the week go? It’s been hot & humid in NJ this week, a perfect time to be inside & create 😀. In card class yesterday we made this fun gatefold card that has a ‘springy’ inside. It’s so fun to open! And I used the September Product of the Month – the Glow of Harvest SDSP – it’s sparkly!

Stampin' Up! Springy inside gatefold w/ Glow of Harvest SDSP card front

This is a traditional gatefold card – 8 1/2 x 5 1/2 scored at 2 1/8 on one end then the other side brought over to meet it. The card base is Early Espresso with a layer of Golden Glow 2 x 5 3/8 on each front panel, then a layer of the Glow of Harvest SDSP 1 7/8 x 5 1/4.

And here’s the finished inside. The center section is the ‘springy’ part. The inside panels are more of the same pattern of Glow of Harvest SDSP cut 1 7/8 x 5 1/4.

Stampin' Up! mechanism for 'springy' inside of gatefold

Stampin' Up! 'springy' mechanism  attached to inside card

To create the mechanism, cut a strip 8 x 1 1/2 and scored @ 1 ¼, 2, 2 ¾, 5 ¼, 6 & 6 ¾. Burnish all score lines making certain the strip edges are even. After scoring, fold it as shown above in the left photo. Attach this to the inside panel, centering it, and with the ends touching. It should look like the photo on the right.

The center panels are Cajun Craze 3 ¾ x 5 and Basic White 3 1/2 x 4 3/4. Stamp the Basic White panel prior to adhering it. I used Crumb Cake stamped off once for the leaves and Golden Glow stamped off once for the small flowers. These are from the NEW Sep-Dec 2026 Catalog that can be ordered from Sep 1! Don’t have a catalog? Let me know & I can fix that. 😀

The belly band is 1 3/4 x 10 (Early Espresso) and wrapped around the card to the front. Keep it loose enough so it easily slips on & off. Secure the ends of the belly band together while it is around the card – just be careful with the amount of adhesive!

Remove the belly band & create the front decor…I used the NEW Tile Garden Dies to create these two panels – Golden Glow (this is about 2 3/4 square) and Basic White (less than 2 1/4″ square) Stamp the sentiment in Early Espresso using the stamp in the Tile Garden stamp set, then stamp the floral image sort of as a background… again stamping off first each time – Crumb Cake for the leaves and Golden Glow for the flowers. Final touch – Gold Adhesive-Backed Dots also from the new catalog. I used them as centers to the flowers.

For the envelope, I used another pattern of the Glow of Harvest SDSP to attach to the flap & trimmed to fit. And on the front this same flower image from the Tile Garden stamp set – Crumb Cake for the leaves and Golden Glow for the flowers, stamped off each time.

The Product of the Month is available for purchase when placing an order of $75 – and it’s only $5! This is stunning pearlized paper & will be available Sep 1 – same day you can order from the Sep-Dec 2026 Catalog.

Stampin’ Up! Tile Garden Sneak Peek with Rtisan Sketched Garden for the Happy Inkin’ Thursday Blog Hop

Good morning, good morning! We have a fun sketch challenge today and i’m so glad you have joined us! You may have come from the fabulous Tara or hopped right in nhere. Haowever you arrived, I hope you’ll check out what everyone has created.

Stampin' Up! Blog hop Group
Stampin' Up! Blog Hop sketch challenge

Our challenge today, as you can see is to create using Black & White plus one other color. I chose to work with Crisp Cantaloupe for this card & the wonderful Artisan Sketched Garden DSP from the May-Aug Catalog. The other big item is the NEW Tile Garden bundle from the Stampin’ Up! Sep-Dec 2026 Catalog that goes live Sep. 1! The dies in this bundle are all squares and haqve the same pattern as the Spotlight on Nature Dies, which are circles. Very cool!

Stampin' Up! Tile Garden + Artisan Sketched Garden card front

The Artisan Sketched Garden DSP is all black & white – the whole package of papers. And of course it can be used as is – or colored. As you can see, I colored the main front panel using the Crisp Cantaloup Shimmer brush. While the shiny doesn’t show in the photo, it does in real life. 😀 After coloring I added this to a Basic Black 4 1/4 x 11 scored at 5 1/2. To that I added a 3/4 x 4 3/4 polka dot strip to the much more white panel 2 x 4 1/4, & attached those to the card front. Next I die cut the white piece using the NEW Tile Garden Dies & added a Crisp Cantaloupe behind it 2 7/8 x 2 7/8. These were added to the card front with dimensionals. I already had this vase of flowers sitting on my desk that I had fussy cut after coloring with Stampin’ Blends: Crisp Cantaloup. Granny Apple Green & Pool Party. I added this to the front again with dimensionals then three Glossy Garden Dots (also from the new Sep-Dec 2026 catalog.)

Stampin' Up! Tile Garden inside card

For the inside of the card I used the NEW Tile Garden stamp set for the sentiment (stamped in Memento ink) and the floral image (stamped in Granny Apple Green and Crisp Cantaloupe (this one stamped off once) This is such a sweet delicate flower. I’m loving the images in this set.

Stampin' Up! Tile Garden + Artisan Sketched Garden card & envelope

The envelope… more of the Tile Garden stamp set used on the front, stamping the leaves min Granny Apple Green and the flowers in stamped off Crisp Cantaloupe. The flap has yet another panel of the Artisan Sketched Garden DSP adhered & trimmed to fit.

I made another card while I was at it – this time making an easel card with Strawberry Slush, the Everyday Arches Dies, Tile Garden stamp set for the sentiment and tiny flowers, more Artisan Sketched Garden DSP (for the black & white plus theme) and a couple of retired products 🥴 The point is, products can coordinate! It’s the Stampin’ Up! way!!!

Stampin’ Up! Show off for the Happy Inkin’ Thursday Blog Hop

Welcome to today’s hop! We have a sketch challenge today and it was really hard for me to decide just what to showcase – so many new products I want to share. I had recently played with this DSP & well, it tugged at me.

Stampin' Up! Blog Hop logo
Stampin' Up! Hop Sketch challenge

This DSP is just so pretty! I love the colors, flowers (sunflowers & more) and checks – so perfectly fall. These are from a suite of products on page ___ in the Sep-Dec 2026 Catalog. The other product in the suite that I used are the Radiant Gems (there are 3). The sentiment is stamped in Pecan Pie on Very Vanilla then fussy cut w/ my paper snips. The backgrounds for all the designer series papers is Cajun Craze and the card base is Pecan Pie. Measurements may be found at the end of this post.

Stampin' Up! Sunflower Fields card front

And here’s the inside… look at that beautiful sunflower – that’s from the coordinating stamp set called Radiant Sunflowers – all from the Sep-Dec 2026 Catalog. The stamp set has coordinating dies but I did not use them on this card. The layers are Cajun Craze & Very Vanilla.

Stampin' Up! Sunflower Fields card inside

For the envelope… Here’s that beautiful sunflower again – on the envelope front. I stamped it in Pecan Pie then used the Golden Glow Shimmer Brush on the petals & light Pecan Pie for the center – same as the sunflower on the inside of the card.

Stampin' Up! Sunflower Fields card & envelope

This could so easily be a masculine card even though there are flowers. The colors just fit! It could be sympathy or it could be birthday – just add the appropriate sentiment. 😀

Stampin’ Up! Sneak Peek Scalloped Christmas Cheer Dies on Triangle Gatefold Flip-Up Card

Happy Friday! Golly the week has gone f-a-s-t… I have a sneaky peek of two new items in the Sep-Dec 2026 Catalog: the Scalloped Christmas Cheer Dies AND the Tile Garden stamp set. Both of these come as separate bundles but this is how I paired them for this card – and it’s a fun fold too!

Stampin' Up! Scalloped Christmas Cheer Dies w/ Triangle Gatefold Flip-Up card & envelope

I used an old set of 6×6 papers called Bokeh, but you could use any papers that would compliment the dies and the stamp set – or change the stamp set!

Card cuts & how to:

  • Card base 4 1/4 x 11 scored at 5 1/2 – I used Berry Burst
  • mat: I used the Bokeh 6×6 DSP ~ 4 x 5 1/4
  • Cut 2 panels of Bokeh 6×6 DSP 3 3/4 x 3 3/4,
    • score on the diagonal, burnish folds and attach to backside of the 4 x 5 14 piece
    • Add to front of card base
  • Add Basic White (2 1/2 x 3 1/2) to back of another piece of Bokeh 6×6 DSP for sturdiness (2 1/2 x 3 1/2) ~ die cut with 2nd smallest die in the Scalloped Christmas Cheer Dies
    • Cut Basic White (1 1/2 x 2 12) for stamping images from the Tile Garden stamp set ~ stamp leaves in Lost Lagoon and flower in Fresh Freesia. Add to die cut piece. Embellish w/ 2026-2028 In Color Dots in Golden Glow & a double Linen Thread bow; set aside
  • On the inside... cut another piece of Basic White w/ the 2nd largest Scalloped Christmas Cheer Dies: stamp the sentiment in Berry Burst ink and the flowers in Fresh Freesia ink from the Tile Garden stamp set; add to inside of gatefold on the large DSP panel
  • Add the set aside front die cut all stamped & ready – to the left side of the DSP triangle gatefold – with dimensionals, centering so it is centered with the inside Basic White scalloped piece
  • Flip the card open to create the final Basic White panel (4 x 5 1/4) … stamp the sentiment in Berry Burst ink, the leaves in Lost Lagoon and the flowers in Fresh Freesia – all using the Tile Garden stamp set. Add Golden Glow accents from the 2026-2028 In Color Dots. Attach to the inside of the card.
  • Envelope
    • Add the 2 12/4 x 6 strip of Bokeh 6×6 DSP to the flap, trimming to fit
    • Stamp the scallop stamp in Berry Burst ink three times, re-inking each time
    • Stamp the Flowers in Fresh Freesia ink three times, re-inking each time.
    • Both these stamps are from the Tile Garden stamp set

Yay! This card is ready to be sent to my grand niece! It’s such a feminine & lovely card. The stamp bundle and the die bundles are in the Sep-Dec. 2026 Catalog – available Sep 1. If you do not have a demonstrator, I would very much like to send a catalog to you so you can order from me. Please let me know how I can help with that opportunity.

Stampin’ Up! Sneak Peek Radiant Sunflowers for the Happy Inkin’ Thursday Blog Hop

Welcome to Thursday & the wonderful Happy Inkin’ Thursday Blog Hop! If you hopped right in, hello, hello. If you’ve joined me after visiting Tara, I’m glad you are making the rounds. We have a sketch challenge today and I had everything planned as to what I wanted to share… then my pre-order for the 2026 Sep-Dec Catalog arrived on my doorstep. 😀 I simply could not wait to share. This Designer Series Paper – the Sunflower Fields 12 x 12 is stunning… I love every piece, both front & back.

Stampin' Up! Blog Hop group
Stampin' Up! blog hop Sketch challenge
Stampin' Up! Sunflower Fields card front

The card base is Cajun Craze with a layer of Very Vanilla then a layer of one of one the papers in the pack. Next I turned the paper over & using a die in the Radiant Sunflowers Dies, cut the rectangle. On a scrap of Very Vanilla I die cut the vase using the Radiant Sunflower Dies then stamped the flower using the coordinating Radiant Sunflowers stamp set. I colored the flower with Old Olive Stampin’ Blends on the leaf and the Shimmer brush in Golden Glow on the flower. The vase & flower were lightly attached to the rectangle with dimensionals and the rectangle was added to the card front with dimensionals. I stamped the sentiment on a scrap of Very Vanilla in Early Espresso ink using the same Radiant Sunflowers stamp set, cut a banner end and attached it with dimensionals. I slipped a Gingham Ribbon to bring out the green on the leaves, then added Radiant Gems to the sentiment. Everything from the Sunflower Fields Suite in the new 2026 Sep-Dec Catalog – items available beginning of Sep. Stay tuned!

For the inside… On a Very Vanilla panel I stamped the sunflower in Golden Glow then the sentiment over it in Early Espresso.
