Stampin’ Up! Traditions of Christmas for the Happy Inkin’ Thursday Blog Hop

It’s Thursday and you know what that mean – a super dooper hop. Let’s get to it! We have a sketc h challenge today and I’ve used NEW PRODUCTS from the Sep-Dec 2025 Mini Catalog. Wheee!

Stampin' Up! Happy Inkin' Thursday Blog Hop

Stampin' Up! Traditions of Christmas card front

I used Secret Sea for my card base and adhered strips of Traditions of Christmas DSP & Gold Foil to create the front of the card. (card cuts are listed below) I stamped then sentiment in VersasMark ink then sprinkled WOW! Metallic Embossing Powder (gold) and heat set it. This small banner seemed to need some accent – so I cut a length of ribbon 1/2″ Shiny Ribbon in Real Red, angling one end to mimic the banner. To this ribbon i added 3/8″ Irregular Weave Trim with Stampin’ Seal. I adhered these to the card front, put dimensionals on the sentiment banner (die cut with the Traditional Labels Dies) and attached over the ribbons – creating a great accent. NOTE: you could easily create the same thing with card stock. My final step was adding three Traditional Sparkling Sequins – and the card front was complete! Remember these items will be available in the Sep-Dec 2025 Mini Catalog. You could also join my team now and be able to order these items as part of your starter kit!

Stampin' Up! Traditions of Christmas card inside

For the inside of the card, I stamped the sentiment using the Traditional Labels stamp set and Real Red ink. I then fussy cut the image from one of the Traditions of Christmas SDSP and adhered it with liquid glue next to the sentiment.

For the envelope, more of the same main pattern of the Traditions of Christmas SDSP adhered to the envelope

Stampin’ Up! NEW Amber Autumn Sneak Peek for Amy’s Inkin’ Krew Blog Hop

Sneaky Peeks are so fun – you get to see new products that will be available in the Sep-Dec 2025 Mini Catalog and I get to p-l-a-y! Or should I say, experiment?! We hasve a challenge for this blog hop – “fall frenzy” and we can interpret that any way we like. So, here we go…

Stampin' Up!n Amy's Inkin' Krew Blog Hop

This is a BRAND NEW bundle – part of a suite of products in the Sep-De c 2025 Mini Catalog… Love, love, love this suite of products! We have LOTS of oak trees in our back area and because of that, acorns. That inspired this card – of course along with the theme. 😀 I used Gray Granite for my card base, then a layer of the shiny Earthen Toned Metallic Specialty Paper. It has a brownish coppery kind of look and as I said – is shiny. I then die cut the leaves using the Amber Autumn Dies (it’s one die) using the Autumn Toile DSP with Adhesive Sheet attached. Removing the adhesive sheet, I attached it to the Earthen Toned Metallic Specialty Paper. The main image is stasmped in Early Espresso ink and colored with several Stampin’ Blends: Old Olive, Mossy Meadow, Crumb Cake & Cajun Craze.I used a Blender Pen to move the Early Espresso ink on the acorn top and on the shading of the acorn, then filled in the rest of the acorns with Crumb Cake. After coloring, I die cut this image with the Amber Autumn Dies. I adhered this to a Stitched Shapes circle (third from largest) in Very Vanilla. This was attached to the card front with dimensionals. As a final touch three of the Streaked Dots, part of this suite of products.

Stampin' Up! Amber Autumn card inside

For the inside of the card… I stamped the sentiment in Early Espresso ink, then stamped a portion of the acorn stamp (also from Amber Autumn stamp set. stamping in the upper right corner, re-inking and stamping in the lower left corner.. This Very Vanilla stamped panel was adhered to an Autumn Toile DSP, then attached to the inside of the card.

Stampin' Up! Autumn Amber card & envelope

For the envelope… more of the same Autumn Toile DSP adhered to the flap & trimmed to fit. Again… I stamped a partial image of the acorn stamp from the Amber Autumn stamp set in the lower left corner.

Stampin’ Up!Sneaky Peek of Traditional Wreath 3D Embossing Folder

New product releases in the September-December 2025 Mini Catalog are opportunities for challenges to inspire. This embossing folder is part of a suite of products called the Traditions of Christmas Suite. Let’s look…

Stampin' Up! Traditional Wreath 3D card front

This is a large embossing folder… about 6×6… good for a card but also could be something to be framed. The image is beautiful and full of texture. After running the Basic White panel through the embossing folder, I used a sponge dauber & Old Olive ink to add color to the raised leaves.I then used my Dark Real Red Stampin’ Blends to color the berries. Next I pulled out one of the papers in the Traditions of Christmas SDSP and fussy cut several of the images of a poinsettia & leaves.I adhered these both with dimensionals and directly to the embossed piece. I used the ribbon in the suite – Shiny Ribbon in Real Red – to tie this gorgeous bow. It is attached with a glue dot. I used a tiny bit of Stampin’ Seal to attach the lengths of the ribbon in place. This panel was added to Real Red to create the card.

Stampin' Up! Traditional Wreath 3D card inside

For the inside, I stamped the sentiment using the Traditional Labels stamp set (has dies too!) in Real Red ink, which is also part of the Traditions of Christmas Suite. These products will be available Sep 3 in the new Sep-Dec 2025 Mini Catalog.

Stampin’ Up! NEW Bauble Blooms with Regal Distressed Patterns

Wow – last day of June! Summer is moving right along…and fourth of July is fast approaching. Today’s card uses a brand new release (available Jul 1 – tomorrow!) called Bauble Blooms bundle. Here is a photo of the stamp set & dies.

Stampin' Up! Bauble Blooms bundle

And here’s my first card made with this bundle.

Stampin' Up! Bauble Blooms w/ Regal Distressed Patterns DSP 
card front

I began with a piece of the Cherry Cobbler in the Regal Distressed Patterns SDSP and cut it 4 x 5 1/4. I made a diagonal cut approximately 1/2″ in from the top and up the right side, but you can make this smaller or larger – as you desire. I added the larger panel to a Basic Beige 4 x 5 1/4. I die cut a border using the Fancy Border Dies and Gold Foil and attached it along the edge. I stamped the sentiment with VersaMark ink then sprinkled Metallic WOW! Embossing Powder over and heat set. Love the mix of fonts on this sentiment! I stamped two images from the stamp set to create the decoration for the ornament: the leaves in Pretty Peacock ink and the flowers in Lost Lagoon ink. I die cut the ornament and the flowers at the same time, then added the flowers with dimensionals to the ornament. I die cut the ornament top from Gold Foil – again using the Bauble Blooms Dies. I put this in place on the card front with dimesnionals then added a double bow using the Gold Twisted Thread and attached it with a glue dot. These were added to the card base of Pretty Peacock.

Stampin' Up! Bauble Blooms card inside

I used the reserved cut of the Regal Distressed Patterns DSP to attach to the upper corner of a Basic White panel (3 3/4 x 5). I added another strip of gold foil die cut from Fancy Borders Dies. I stamped the sentiments from Bauble Blooms stamp set in Pretty Peacock ink. This was added to Basic Beige 4 x 5 14 and added to the inside of the card.

Stampin' Up! Bauble Blooms card & envelope

For the envelope… more of the Regal Distressed Patterns SDSP in Cherry Cobbler was adhered to the flap & trimmed to fit.

Stampin’ Up! NEW Charming Day

This is a suite of products that will be available Jul 1 to customers – and I am using only a couple of the items to make this card: the Charming Day bundle and Floral Charm 12×12 DSP. Let’s take a look at the bundle and the card.

Stampin' Up! Charming Day bundle
Stampin' Up! Charming Day Sympathy card front

The card base is Blackberry Bliss with a panel of the Floral Charm DSP covering the entire front of the base. Next i took the Textured Notes Dies and die cut another piece of the same pattern of the DSP using the third largest of the dies.. I cut another piece of the Floral Charm DSP 2 3/8 x 3 7/8 and attached it to the die cut piece. Both of these were adhered directly to the card front. I used Basic Beige card stock and a stunning leaf die from the Charming Day Diesnto cut a leaf, then nused Early Espresso ink and anBlending Brush to very gently add some color to the leaf die cut. I then added this to the card front with dabs of liquid adhesive. I stamped the sentiment with Blackberry Bliss ink and Everyday Greetings stamp set, then fussy cut it. I sued mini dimensionals to add to the back & attach to the card front. I tied a double bow with Linen Thread & attached with a glue dot.

Stampin' Up! Sympathy card inside

For the inside… I added a stgrip of 3/8 x 4 Floral Charm DSP to the bottom of the Basic White panel. I stamped the floral image in Blackberry Bliss ink using the Charming Day stamp set, then added the sentiment – again, Blackberry Bliss ink but this time using the Comforting Thoughts stamp set. This is obviously a sympathy card – and mentally a tough one because it’s so personal.

Stampin' Up! Charming Day Sympathy card & envelope

For the envelope… more of the same Floral Charm 12×12 DSP on the flap and trimmed to fit. On the front the same gorgeous floral stamp as used on the inside of the card in Blackberry Bliss ink from the Charming Day stamp set.

Stampin’ Up! Diagonal DSP Just a Note

Good morning Friends… NJ has had a couple of days respite from the heat – a drop of 30 degrees to the 70’s! These are welcome temperatures! Today’s card is made with the new In Colors Secret Sea and Cloud Cover – and could be duplicated using all the new In Colors.

Stampin' Up! 2025-2027 DSP Diagonal card front

I began with the 2025-2027 In Color 6×6 DSP cut 3 1/2 x 4 3/4 and cut it on the diagonal, then turned the pieces 90 degrees holding them together, to cut on the other diagonal. (NOTE: This works with DSP that has a reverse side that is coordinating in color/ pattern, not conflicting. So choose carefully 😀) After cutting the DSP, decide which sections should be primary showing the pattern desired. Here I chose the left and right panels to be dominant and simply turned the other two panels to the reverse side. These were adhered to Basic White cut 4 x 5 1/4, dimensionals added to the back and attached to a Cloud Cover card base 8 1/2 x 5 1/2 scored at 4 1/4. On the front I added a length of 3/8″ Faux Linen Ribbon with Stampin’ Seal. Using the Mixed Labels Dies, I cut two labels, the larger in Secret Sea, the smaller in Basic White. I stamped the sentiment using the Mixed Labels stamp set in Secret Sea ink. I layered the two together with adhesive, popped dimensionals across the back on top & bottom and adhered it over the ribbon. The final touch was adding several 2025-2027 In Color Flat Pearls in Cloud Cover.

Stampin' Up! DSP Diagonal card inside

For the inside… simple… a 1/2 x 4 strip of the same 25-27 In Color DSP as used on the card front, and attached to the side of a Basic White 4 x 5 1/4 panel

Stampin' Up! DSP Diagonal card & envelope

For the envelope, more of the 25-27 In Color DSP on the flap trimmed to fit. On the front, using Cloud Cover ink and an image in the Mixed Labels stamp set, I stamped twice on the lower left corner. This gives a completed look and could even be used as a masculine card, despite the flowers.

See below for ways to purchase the products to make this card.

Stampin’ Up! Happy Inkin’ Thursday Blog Hop Color Challenge

Welcome to our blog hop – it’s Thursday! We have a color challenge today that absolutely stumped me at first. But once I pulled out this bundle of Inspiring Imperfections and coordinating products, it all fell in place.

Stampin' Up! Inspiring Imperfections card front

The card base is Crumb Cake cut to 4 1/4 x 11 & scored at 5 1/2. Lost Lagoon is part of the layer on dimensionals and is cut 3 7/8 x 5 1/8 (please cut 2 & save one for the inside of the card. The Basic Beige piece is 3 3/4 x 5 and run through the Joined Together 3D embossing folder, which is part of the Kintsugi Inspirations suite of products in the 2025-2026 Annual Catalog on pages 58-60. I added this panel to the Lost Lagoon and set them aside.

I stamped this gorgeous vase from the Inspiring Imperfections stamp set in Lost Lagoon ink on Basic White scrap, then used Stampin’ Blends in Peach Pie & Mossy Meadow to add additional color. Next I die cut the ‘break’ in Secret Sea and the flower s from Basic White. The flowers I colored with Peach Pie Stampin’ Blends. Once the Vase was in place on the card front (on dimensionals I might add), I attached the ‘break’ and the flowers with dabs of liquid glue. The final touch was to add Wink of Stella to the small flowers and to the flowers & colored leaves on the vase. The final touch was the Flower Accents in the center of each of the flowers.

Stampin' Up! Inspiring Imperfections card inside

For the inside … remember the saved Lost Lagoon panel? Attach it to the inside of the card to frame the Basic White stamped panel. 😀. This panel is stamped with another of the vases in the Inspiring Imperfections stamp set and has another of the die cut ‘breaks’ form the coordinating dies in the bundle. And yep – die cut from Secret Sea.

Stampin' Up! Inspiring Imperfections card & envelope

For the envelope, Crumb Cake 2 1/4 x 6 run through the same Joined Together 3D embossing Folder and attached to the flap & trimmed to fit. On the envelope front, this sweet flower stamped in Peach Pie ink. I love it – & hope you approve.

Stampin’ Up! Coneflower Celebrations in a Sympathy card

I’m sharing a card today made with the amazing Coneflower Celebrations bundle in the new 2025-2026 Annual Catalog. I’ve made it looking more like a white daisy with bits of color.

Stampin' Up! Coneflower Celebrations card front

The card base is Thick Basic White with an attached Basic White layer run through with one of the Glass Gardens embossing folders (there are two in this package!). I offset the embossing folder for added interest, putting on an angle on the sheet. Then I began creating the flower using the Coneflower Celebration Dies. The top layer is from one die and has light color with the Light Daffoldil Delight Stampin’ Blends; and the other two are from another die. I stamped on one of those bottom layers with stamped off Smoky Slate then added color with Daffodil Delight Stampin’ Blends. I adhered these together creating layers, so slightly offset. The center of the flower is a gorgeous little die cut from Darling Duckling card stock with added color with the Dark Daffodil Delight Stampin’ Blends & Wink of Stella. This too was added to the flower then attached to the card front. The stems and leaves were stamped in Memento ink and colored lightly with Granny Apple Green Stampin blends, then added in place. The sentiment is from the Everyday Greetings stamp set and is stamped in Smoky Slate then fussy cut at the bottom & attached with dimensionals. The final touch is a Linen Thread bow.

Stampin' Up! Conflower Celebrations card inside

For the inside… again the sentiment is from Everyday Greetings stamp set and stamped in Smoky Slate ink. The butterfly is from the Coneflower Celebrations stamp and stamped in Smoky Slate and colored with Light Balmy Blue, Light Pool Party and Light Misty Moonlight – and of course Wink of Stella. The Basic White panel was added to the inside of the card.

Stampin' Up! Coneflower Celebrations card & envelope

For the envelope… I embossed a piece of Basic White with the same Glass Gardens embossing folder, adhered to the flap & trimmed to fit – done!

Stampin’ Up! Botanical Textures + Textured Notes Fun Fold

Hello Saturday! It’s beautiful here in New Jersey – and I’m INSIDE… attending a convention for a women’s organization. The great part is that I’m seeing folks I haven’t seen in a while; the unfortunate part is that I’m not out gardening or enjoying the sun. Having said all that – let me share today’s card…

Stampin' Up! Botanical Textures & Textured Notes card front

This card is made with items from the Botanical Textures Suite of products: the Botanical Textures 12×12 DSP and the Textured Notes stamp set (which is also a bundle with dies). Black & white cards stand out and this one is no different. It’s made with Thick Basic White card stock 8 1/2 x 5 12, scored at 4 1/4 then 2 1/4 removed. I cut a Botanical Textured DSP1 7/8 x 5 3/8 and adhere to the remaining top portion. Open the card & stamp the inside :O) This is an easy, easy card to make… just stamps, ink, paper!

Stampin' Up! Textured Notes Stamp Set inside card

Using the Textured Notes stamp set and Memento ink, I stamped this stunning leaf on the upper right corner and the bottom left corner. I added a 3/8″ strip of the Botanical Textures DSPn to the bottom, then stamped this sentiment – also from the Textured Notes stamp set. LOVE THIS FONT! On each end of the sentiment I added black dots from … I forget which embellishments- maybe the Neutral embellishments from the suite?! And the card itself is done.

Stampin' Up! Botanical Textures + Textured Notes card & envelope

The envelope… Using Memento ink and another leaf stamp in this
Textured Notes stamp set, I stamped on the flap 3 times, reinking the stamp each time. I did the same on the front of the envelope – & boom, complete! Such a quick and gorgeous card. Well, maybe I shouldn’t say that since I made it 🙂
