Stampin’ Up! Slider Card Fun Fold with Sneak Peek Products

Posted on by
2

Good morning! I’m so excited to share this card with you – it’s a beauty, I used some new products that will be coming out in the May-August 2026 Catalog that you can order on May 5.

Stampin' Up! Slider Card fun fold, card front

The card base is Crisp Cantaloupe. Don’t you just love that name of a color? The layers are Peaceful Pine and various papers from the Bloom Boutique Specialty Paper Pack. The flowers & leaves come from a new bundle – Boutique Blossoms and the scalloped die cuts use the Scalloped Blooms bundle. Before I share all the details about how to make this card, let’s see the inside where the slider is.

Stampin' Up! Slider card fun fold inside

More gorgeous paper shown here from the same Bloom Boutique SDSP. And the slider? That’s the sentiment panel – and it slips inside the panel on the right.

So, directions… I chose to do the inside first so let’s start there.

  • The card base is the standard 8 1/2 x 5 1/2 scored on the long side @ 2 3/4 & 6 3/4. Burnish the score lines as both will fold to the inside.
  • Cut the left DSP panel 2 1/2 x 5 1/4 and adhere
  • Cut the center DSP panel 3 3/4 x 5 1/4 and adhere
  • Fold the last panel inwards with a narrow line of adhesive at just the top & bottom (see photo)
Stampin' Up! Slider card template

Decorate this folded over section with contrasting card stock (Peaceful Pine 1 1/2 x 5 1/4) then an overlay of DSP (1 1/4 x 5)

Creating the Slider for the card:

  • Cut a piece of card stock same color as card base (Crisp Cantaloupe) 3 3/4 x 4 1/4 & score 1/2″ on short side. Burnish & add adhesive to the scored end
  • Add this to the left inside panel even with the DSP & equidistant top to bottom
  • Fold this to the right, add a stamped Basic White piece 3 x 4 to the ‘slider’ front, then slip it into the opening on the right (I stamped the sentiment in Peaceful Pine ink – new In Color! and the flowers in Crisp cantaloupe – also new In Color! The sentiment is from Scalloped Blooms & the flowers are from Boutique Blossoms)

Now let’s decorate the front, which is really only the left panel 😀 Cut a contrasting card stock (Peaceful Pine) 2 1/2 x 5 1/4 and a DSP panel 2 1/4 x 5. Add to card front.

  • Die cut two panels of Scalloped Blooms Dies (Crisp Cantaloupe & Basic White) Stamp the BW piece in Peace Pine ink using a stamp from the Scalloped Blooms stamp set
  • Stamp small flowers in Peaceful Pine ink & the medium flower outline stamp in Crisp Cantaloupe. Stamp the filler stamp for both flowers in Barely Blush ink (another new IN COLOR!) Use the Light Peaceful Pine Stampin’ Blend to add color to the leaves of the small flowers. Die cut & set aside.
  • Die cut the small group of leaves (Peaceful Pine)
  • Add each of these die cuts to the die cut scallops and attach to card front.
  • Final touch… add three (3) 2026-2028 In Color Dots

Envelope… Add another piece of the Bloom Boutique SDSP 2 1/4 x 6 to the flap & trim to fit. Stamp the front with flowers from the Bloom Boutique stamp set with Crisp Cantaloupe ink. YAY – this is ready to send to someone special!

Stampin’ Up! Delicate Whispers Feel Better Card

Posted on by
4

Good Tuesday! It’s March 3 and do you know what that means… new ONLINE EXCLUSIVES AVAILABLE! This bundle & papers are simply stunning and perfect for either masculine or feminine cards.

Stampin' Up! Delicate Wishes Feel Better Card front

I began with a Crumb Cake card base 8 1/2 x 5 1/2 scored at 4 1/4. I used two dies from the Delicate Whispers Dies to die cut these two images. I added a strip of the Delicate Designs Specialty Designer Series Paper to a Wood Grain Wonders, wrapped Linen Thread around the two papers, twice, & tied a bow. I attached these to the card front. On a scrap of Basic White, I stamped the sentiment in VersaMark ink, sprinkled Wow! Metallic Embossing Powder in Copper & heat set. Once this was cool, I attached it to a piece of Wood Grain Wonders DSP cut with Perennial Postage Dies and attached it with dimensionals over the Linen Thread. I then added the two die cuts under the bow & secured with a glue dot.

Stampin' Up! Delicate Wishes feel better card inside

For the inside, an additional styrip of the Delicate Designs SDSP was added to the edge of the Basic White 4 x 5 1/4 panel and attached to the inside of the card. I’ve stamped no inside sentiment as this card is being signed by lots of folks to let them know we’re thinking of them. I love this card and I think the person receiving it will also!

Stampin' Up! Delicate Wishes card & envelope

For the envelope, another piece of the Delicate Designs SDSP was attached to the flap & trimmed to fit. On the front another image from Delicate Wishes stamp set stamped in Crumb Cake ink to bring everything together.

Stampin’ Up! Love Notes Card

Posted on by
2

Good Friday morning stamping friends. The temp today here in my neck of the woods is… ZERO! The 10″ of snow that fell last Sunday is frozen solid and dangerous for walking. The streets are pretty clear; wildlife is suffering… 17 deer passed by our back yard this morning looking for food and water. We cannot get to our heated bird bath or feeders due to the ice. UGH!

Stampin' Up! Love Notes card front

My card today is full of hearts. It uses the Love Notes 6×6 DSP, Loose Valentine Assortment for embellishments and 1/4″ White ribbon from the Starter Ribbon Pack – and the Endless Love bundle. The card base is Flirty Flamingo 8 1/2 x 5 1/2 scored at 4 1/4. Cut this particular panel of Love Notes 6×6 along the pattern separation and adhere the larger piece to the card front 4 1/4 x 5 1/2. To the remaining panel add a Flirty Flamingo strip along the right edge and trim to 5 1/2 length. Wrap this panel with the ribbon, creating a knot on the front. Secure the knot with a glue dot, add dimensionals to the back of this panel and attach to the card along the fold line. Using the Endless Love stamp set, stamp the heart design with Real Red ink on a Basic White piece and die cut with the coordinating Endless Love Dies, attach to the card front with dimensionals. Now add the Loose Valentine Assortments. I added five.

Stampin' Up! Love Notes card inside

For the inside of the card… I added a strip of the Love Notes 6×6 to a 4 x 5 1/4 Basic White panel and attached more of the Loose Valentine Assortments with liquid glue. I love the simplicity of this card – yet it has lots of texture!

Stampin' Up! Love Notes card & envelope

For the envelope… I added a piece of the Made with Love 12×12 DSP and trimmed to fit – and that was it! This card is ready to go! The fun part of this card is, it could be used to send to a friend struggling with health issues or sent as a friendly hello or a birthday card. With no particular sentiment this card fits many purposes.

Stampin’ Up! New Covered in Flowers Accents Cards

Posted on by
4

Good, good morning. It was rainy here Saturday and I was able to play in my craft room. I had such fun playing with a new ONLINE EXCLUSIVE product released Jan 6. It’s called Covered in Flowers Accents. They are a laser cut sheet of flowers and leaves, cut from something other than paper, yet very thin and not as fragile as paper. They are stunningly gorgeous. Here are my four cards.

Stampin' Up! Covered in Flowers Accents, card 1
Stampin' Up! Covered in Flowers Accents, card 2

Stampin' Up! Covered in Flowers, card 3
Stampin' Up! Covered in Flowers Accents, card 4

You can see that I stuck with a certain color theme for all four cards, Timid Tiger and Cloud Cover. I used the same embellishments on each card, varying the color per the need: 2025-2027 In Color Flat Pearls, again in Timid tiger and Cloud Cover. On the first card I used Secret Sea. On the very last card I chose to use a Blending Brush to color the floral accent: Timid Tiger & Pumpkin Pie, the Granny Apple Green & Garden Green.

The sentiments on the card fronts : card 1 is from Fragrant Flowers stamp set, stamped in Secret Sea & punched out with the Three Banner Punch; card 3 sentiment is from Prayers & Promises stamped in Cloud Cover & die cut with Beautifully Celebrated Dies the inked the edges with Cloud Cover; card 4 front sentiment is from Banner Sayings stamp set in Cloud Cover ink and punched with the coordinating Three Banner Punch.

And here are each of the cards on the inside.

Stampin' Up! Covered in Flowers Accents card 1 inside
Stampin' Up! Prayers and Promises, card 2 inside

Stampin' Up! Prayers & Promises sentiment card 3
Stampin' Up! Prayers & Promises inside card 4

On each of the cards inside, I used a Blending Brush prior to stamping the sentiment. On the first card I used the punched out ‘frame’ as the template from the flower on the front and stamped the sentiment in Secret Sea ink using the Fragrant Layers stamp set. For the remaining three cards I stamped in Cloud Cover ink using various sentiments from Prayers & Promises stamp set.

Other products used to make these cards: Stripes Embossing Folder on card 1 and the Stone & Vine Embossing Folder on card 2. On card 3 I added Nature Walk 12×12 DSP to the full card front. All the cards use 2025-2027 In Color 6×6 DSP: card 1 – (3) panels cut 1 x 3 & layered to Timid Tiger 3 1/8 x 3 1/4; card 2 – 1 x 3 & 2 x 3 layered on Timid Tiger1 3/8 x 4 32/8 & 2 3/8 x 3 3/8; card 3 – 1 x 4 & 1/2 x 4; card 4 – 1/2 x 4 & 1 1/4 x 4. Each of the Basic White layers are 3 3/4 x 5. On card 4 there is an additional layer 3 7/8 x 5 1/8. Card bases are either 8 1/2 x 5 1/2 scored at 4 1/4 or 4 1/4 x 11 scored at 5 1/2, making all card fronts 4 1/4 x 5 1/2. The inside layer is Basic White 4 x 5 1/4.

And here are the coordinating envelopes with the cards.

Stampin’ Up! Celebrate for Amy’s Inkin’ Krew Blog Hop Group

Posted on by
6

Our theme is ‘celebrate’ and we can interpret that any needed way. I have chosen to use the brand new products in the Lovely & Beautiful suite in the Jan-Apr 2026 Mini Catalog on pages 23-29. This is an absolutely gorgeous suite & I’m highlighting only a small bit of it.

Stampin' Up! Amy's Inkin' Krew Blog hop Group

The background is this fun checkered pattern & I’ve stamped this sentiment from the Beautifully Celebrated stamp set in Calypso Coral. I then die cut from the Lovely & Beautiful Specialty Designer Series Paper the flower & leaves using the Simply Beautiful Dies. The leaves & tiny pieces are adhered directly to the card front while the flower is on dimensionals as is the stamen (it’s on a mini dimensional cut in half!) I then added these gorgeous Pearlized Faceted Circles that are also a part of the suite. The Specialty DSP was added to a Basic panel slightly larger then attached to the Calypso Coral card base with dimensionals. I made a small Linen Thread bow and tucked it under the flower, adhering with a dab of glue.

Stampin' Up! Lovely &

For the inside of the card, I used yet another of the Simply Beautiful Dies to die cut this flower from the Lovely & Beautiful SDSP. Before attaching it in place I stamped this decorative design using a stamp from Beautifully Celebrated stamp set in Calypso Coral ink. I adhered the flower then stamped the sentiment – again in Calypso Coral ink – then adhered the panel to the inside of the card.

Stampin' Up! Lovely & Beautiful Suite card & envelope

For the envelope… more of the Lovely & Beautiful SDSP was adhered to the flap & trimmed to fit. On the front is this leaf, stamped in Old Olive ink using the Beautifully Celebrated stamp set. While this is very springy in color, I’m using this as a birthday card for my friends birthday in December – something non traditional ‘Decemberish’ 😀 For information on how to get the new Jan-Apr 2026 Mini Catalog, see below.

Stampin’ Up! NEW Friendly Foliage in Greens

Posted on by
4

First of all, happy Veterans Day to all our veterans out there. Thank you for your sacrifices and service to our country. You are amazing human beings and I am so grateful. Big salutes to those who have served in the past, and to those currently serving – bless you… and your families, for they have served in a different way and suffered too. ❤️

Now – my card for today is a NEW November ONLINE EXCLUSIVE release called Friendly Foliage.

Stampin' Up! Friendly Foliage card front

This card has some layers… and begins with a card base in Pool Party with a layer of Nests of Winter DSP. The next two layers are Basic White and Woven Textures DSP. These all all attached directly to the card base. The next layers are attached with dimensionals: Basic White layered with another pattern in Nests of Winter then the Basic White stamped & die cut image from Friendly Foliage. This image is the focal point of the card… stamped in Shaded Spruce ink, die cut and attached with liquid glue. I then added Wink of Stella to all the leaves, bringing more attention to the pretty image. I splattered Wink of Stella to the entire card as well. While that was drying, I stamped the sentiment from Friendly Foliage in Pool Party ink on the Basic White strip and added it with dimensionals as well. Final touch… three Opal Rounds.

Stampin' Up! Friendly Foliage card inside

For the inside of my card I added a layer of Woven textures DSP as a background to my Basic White stamped panel. The sentiment is from Friendly Foliage stamp set and stamped in Pool Party ink. The sweet leaves are a die cut from the beautiful Friendly Foliage Dies.

For the envelope… more of the Nests of Winter DSP was added to the envelope – no naked envelopes for me.

Stampin' Up! Friendly Foliage card & envelope

Due to the colors, this is a definite feminine card. When I create with this next, I’m going to really try to make a more masculine one. When my hubby saw this card, he called the image pussy willows and I hadn’t thought of that. Pussy Willows are definitely brown, so next time, masculine, in brown tones. Card cuts for this card are listed below.

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

Posted on by
12

Welcome to our blog hop! We have a fun sketch challenge today ands I’ve chosen to work with the new November ONLINE EXCLUSIVE suite of products called Brushed with Beauty. As a demonstrator I was able to purchase this early in a pre-order and I l-o-v-e it! The colors are really ‘up my alley’ so to speak. Yesterday I shared several links to cards I made with this suite of products. You can see that post here

And … today is hubby & my anniversary… of several/ many years. I am so blessed and thankful. So, today’s card is in celebration of that. ❤️

Stampin' Up! Brushed with Beauty card front

I started with a Very Vanilla card base and adhered this striped pattern (it’s the ‘b’side to the floral paper showing) directly to the base. I then cut a smaller piece of the same DSP (the ‘a’side) and adhered it to Very Vanilla just slightly larger. This was added to the front with dimensionals. Next I stamped the larger floral outline stamp in Calypso Coral on a scrap of Very Vanilla and colored it with Stampin’ Blends Bronze & Ivory. I die cut this and the detail die (this one is from the Vellum in the suite of products) and attached the two together with a glue dot in the center of the flower. I attached a Pearls of Beauty embellishment to the flower center in Calypso Coral and added it to the card front with liquid adhesive. I die cut two elements from the Words of Beauty Dies: the background layer in very Vanilla and the detail of the word in Petal Pink that had an adhesive sheet attached to it. After die cutting I put them together & added them to the card front with mini dimensionals. I added two more of the Pearls of Beauty in Calypso Coral.

Stampin' Up! Brushed with Beauty products, inside card

For the inside… I was playing around with color for the flower… stamped the outline stamp on a Very Vanilla scrap in Calypso Coral but colored this one with Stampin’ Blends 1000 & 500. The 1000 is the pinkish color and the 500 is the soft shade of brown. After die cutting the flower & adhering it to a Very Vanilla insert, I added a single Pearls of Beauty embellishment in the Crumb Cake kind of color. The top sentiment is stamped in Early Espresso using the Words of Beauty stamp set. The lower sentiment is stamped in Petal Pink ink using the Sweetly Scripted stamp set.

Stampin' Up! 11/06 hop Brushed with Beauty card & envelope

Keeping this envelope really simple… another panel of the Brushed with Beauty DSP showcasing a Petal Pink coloring, was added to the flap and trimmed to fit. You can purchase these products from my online store – see the link below!

Stampin’ Up! Nests of Winter DSP & Sketch

Posted on by
6

WOW – November! Halloween is behind us & Thanksgiving is coming soon. What a time to be be thankful & grateful… yes, yes. I’m thankful for all of you & grateful for this fun craft which I so enjoy. So MANY blessings… lest I get sappy… let me share today’s card.

Stampin' Up! Nests of Winter DSP card front

This cute little bird has been sitting on my desk for a bit. He was supposed to be used on another project & well, I got busy with other cards, designs & stuff. He was die cut using a Spotlight on Nature Die, cut directly from the Nests of Winter DSP. I mounted him on a Cherry Cobbler circle die cut with the Stitched Shapes Dies. Then I pulled various papers from the Nests of Winter DSP pack.

  • the cross panel is 2 1/4 x 3 7/8
  • the two vertical panels are 1 x 3 & 1 1/4 x 4

These were adhered on the Basic White 3 7/8 x 5 1/8 pice which was attached to yet another panel of DSP 4 x 5 1/4. These were added to the Gray Granite card base (8 1/2 x 5 1/2 scored at 4 1/4) with dimensionals. The circles were also added to the card with dimesnionals. Then these wonderful Streaked Dots were scattered for additional charm.

Stampin' Up! Nests of Winter DSP, inside card

For the inside of the card I fussy cut with my paper snips this adorable bird & adhered it with liquid glue to the Basic White insert (4 x 5 1/4).

Stampin' Up! Nests of Winter DSP card & envelope

For the envelope… more of the Nests of Winter DSP attached to the flap & trimmed to fit. DONE! Cut the DSP panels ahead of time & this card layout is a quick 1, 2, 3. Add a sentiment depending on the front focal point, or not, as I didn’t here. It’s easy to add a message inside when this card is needed for something special.

Stampin’ Up! Love & Courage for the Happy Inkin’ Thursday Blog Hop

Posted on by
13

Welcome to Thursday & our fabulous hop! We have a theme challenge today called “Clean & Simple” and I confess… this was not easy for me. I made a card but it used a die & ribbon, but was a step ‘up’ so to speak. And actually I like this card better. 😀

Stampin' Up! Happy Inkin' Thursday Blog Hop
Stampin' Up! Blog Hop Theme Challenge
Stampin' Up! Love & Courage card front

Do you see what I did here? I created a cross with score lines. So, stamp first (Pretty In Pink was used here), turn the card over & with your scoring tool, score lines where you want them. And why flip the card over? I wanted the score lines to be raised on the front, not indented. Make sense? After scoring, I added the stamped piece to a larger layer, then attached those to the card front with dimensionals. Final touch – Strawberry Slush & Pretty in Pink Gems. So so easy…

Stampin' Up! Love & Courage inside card

For the inside… another stamp in the Love & Courage stamp set is the single word HOPE – – it’s stamped in Pretty In Pink on a Basic White insert piece then added to the inside of the card.

Stampin' Up! Love & Courage card & envelope

For the envelope… a piece of Subtles 6×6 DSP in Petal Pink was added to the flap & trimmed to fit. The traditional cancer ribbon from Love & Courage stamp set was stamped in Pretty in Pink on the flap & on the envelope front.

This is the first card I mentioned that I made that didn’t seem to fit the ‘clean & simple’ challenge. The DSP in the background is 2025-2027 In Color 6×6 in Strawberry Slush and the ribbon & inking is also Strawberry Slush.

Time to hop around – see what others on the team have created… click the ‘next’ button or click on a name. Either way, check them all. 😀 Enjoy the hop!
