Stampin’ Up! Brighten Your Day Kit

Our Internet is quite spotty & intermittent today so not sure if this will publish appropriately. I’ve been trying all morning.

This is such a beautiful kit and I had promised to share photos of my completed cards a few days ago. I had a difficult reaction to a vaccine that really set me back for two straight days. Thanks goodness that is behind me!

Each card in this kit has a laser-cut delicate design – so three designs for nine cards, make sense? I made one each of the ‘prescribed’ card designs and here they are

Stampin' Up! Brighten Ypour Day Kit original

These first three cards are the original ‘plan’ of the kit and they show Fresh Freesia, Basic Beige and Balmy Blue. These next two images are of the birds with a card base of Balmy Blue on the left and Lost Lagoon on the right, both using what had been the original base as part of a layer for the card front.

With the remaining cards bases, I trimmed each down to 41/8 x 5 3/8, thereby making a card front panel and an inside panel with each supplied card base. Here are my completed cards – nothing fancy or over the top done, just incorporated an additional card base.

Below left has a card base of Balmy Blue with the original card base as a layer for the laser-cut image. Below right uses Lost Lagoon as the card base

These two cards show card bases in Highland Heather for the left card and Fresh freesia for the right card, again using the original card base as a front layer.

I took a LOT more pictures but they just didn’t turn out that well so I have not included them – bummer!

OK – so this is one of the fabulous kits Stampin’ Up! is offering. There is always something going on… remember there are changes coming to the packaging for both photopolymer stamps and dies. Also, rubber stamps are being discontinued. Both of these will take effect at the end of each catalog. What that means is at the end of both the Sep-Dec 2025 catalog and the 2025-2026 Annual Catalog, no more rubber stamps. For full disclosure, check this post. It will give you measurements of the new packaging and you’ll see a glimpse of a new bundle available in the ONLINE EXCLUSIVES for November. There is also a video you can access.

Stampin’ Up! Perfectly Pears plus Branching Out Dies

Good Sunday morning! I’ve a sweet Perfectly Pears card for you today and I paired it with a new die set from the Sep-Dec 2025 Mini Catalog called Branching Out Dies. It has a stamp set as well, but I’m not using that today.

Stampin' Up! Perfectly Pears card front

This new die is shown here in the Basic Beige – as a background for the pears. The leaves of thew pears cover the top of the die cut, but it’s the same as the bottom. There are at least 6 of these layering dies in the set, plus some other fun dies as well. It’s wonderful. How to make this card…

The card base is Mossy Meadow with a layer of Darling Duckling then a layer of Painterly Pears DSP. Next I die cut the Basic Beige with the Branching Out dies and added it. With another piece of the Painterly Pears DSP and the Perfectly Pears Dies, I die cut the two pears and the stem/ leaves. Using another die in the Perfectly Pears Dies and Lemon Lime Twist, I die cut the open weave image. I adhered the stem/ leaves to each pear, then attached them to the card front: the darker pear is adhered directly and the lighter pear is on dimensionals. I slipped the open weave die cut under the pears and attached with dabs of liquid glue. The leaves of the darker pear do have dimensionals. Once everything was innplace, I stamped the sentiment in Mossy Meadow ink. It comes from the Perfectly Pears stamp set. Final touch – three Low Profile Sparkle Dots in Old Olive and a double Linen Thread bow added with a glue dot.

Stampin' Up! Perfectly Pears inside card

For the inside…on a panel of Basic White… the pear comes from the Perfectly Pears stamp set… inked first in Darling Duckling then Lemon Lime Twist added with a sponge dauber and stamped on the panel. The stem’ leaves are also from this stamp set and are inked with Old Olive and Early Espresso Markers. This was attached to aDarling Duckling panel then added to the inside of the card.

Stampin' Up! Perfectly Pearas card & envelope

For the envelope… The same Painterly Pears DSP was added to the flap & trimmed to fit. The pear was stamped using the same method as above – using the Perfectly Pears stamps, Darling Duckling and Lemon Lime Twist inks for the pear and Old Olive and Early Espresso markers for the stem’ leaves. This is such a fabulous suite of products!

Stampin’ Up! Traditions of Christmas ~ Sending Love & Joy

Yesterday was a blog hop & I used the Traditions of Christmas SDSP for my focal point. Today – still the same package of Designer Series Paper, but used very differently. First of all, there is a coordinating stamp & die bundle that coordinates and die cuts images in the paper – the Christmas Greenery bundle, available Sep 3 in the Sep-Dec 2025 Mini Catalog.

Stampin' Up! Traditions of C'mas - sending love

I began with one of those die cuts – of this beautiful ‘swag’. I then stamped some extra leaves from the Christmas Greenery stamp set in Old Olive ink on Old Olive card stock scraps – and die cut them as well. I adhered the ‘swag’ with dimensionals and the leaves directly to a Basic White panel. Next I die cut this gorgeous bow from Real Red and adhered it together, placed a cut dimensional and put it in place. Pulling out another bundle that coordinates is the Traditional Labels bundle that has all sentiments and label dies. I stamped on Basic White in Real Red ink, then die cut the label – love this curve die! I also die cut the same lable from Old Olive cardstock, cut it min half lengthwise to give a ‘shadow effect’ or frame to the white label. I added this to the card front with dimensionals. Once that was inn place, I felt the white space was ‘too white’ – too much white space (for me). So I pulled out the Christmas Greenery stamp that had the three berries and stamped those in Real Red all over the open spaces. As a final touch I added Traditional Sparkling Sequins in gold to the sentiment banner. This entire panel was adhered to an Old Olive card base.

Stampin' Up! Traditions of C'mas, sending love card inside

For the inside of the card, I stamped the sentiment from the Traditional Labels stamp set in Old Olive on a Basic White panel, then added berries in Real Red using the Christmas Greenery stamp set. This was adhered to the inside of the card – and done!

Stampin' Up! Traditions of C'mas, sending love card & envelope

For the envelope… more of the Traditions of Christmas SDSP but using this fun olive plaid pattern, was adhered to the flap & trimmed to fit.

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.

Stampin' Up! Traditions of Christmas card & envelope

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

Stampin’ Up! Sunflower 3D Anniversary Card

Good morning! It’s Saturday and a crisp 55 degrees here in coastal NJ. Not the right time of year for these temps, but I’ll take it! I needed an anniversary card and since that fabulous Sunflower 3D embossing folder was still on my desk – I used it 😀 This could so easily be a wedding card, but this is a couple celebrating 30 years of marriage and well, they needed something special.

Stampin' Up! Sunflower 3D Anniversary card front

The card base is Thick Basic White to create this slimline card. After running a piece of Basic White through the Sunflower 3D embossing folder, I layered a piece of Smoky Slate to the back and adhered it to the card front. I took the Sweetly Scripted stamp set and stamped a 1/2″ strip with the sentiment in Smoky Slate. I ran my Stampin Seal along the back of the strip and attached Silver 1/8″ Trim, weaving it back and forth. I added lots of dimensionals and attached it to the card front. The last step was adding two Adhesive-Backed Metallic Gems. I absolutely love this!

Stampin' Up! Sunflower 3D Anniversary card inside

For the inside… I used the same Sweetly Scripted stamp set and Smoky Slate ink to stamp the congratulations sentiment to a Basic White insert. And that was it… it’s simple and quite elegant.

Card cuts will be listed below to make this simple, elegant card. Stampin’ Up! has some great deals going right now. CLICK HERE TO VIEW ALL! or click the various images below.

Stampin’ Up! Sunflower Embossing Folder – Off-set Gatefold Sympathy Card

Good morning – it’s Friday and I have two cards for you this morning using the debossed side of paper run through this fabulous Sunflower 3D embossing folder. And, it’s an off-set gatefold card. In a traditional gatefold card, both closing sides are the same width; this off-set means one side (the right side in this case) is more narrow. Let’s take a peek…

Stampin' Up! Sunflower 3D offset gatefold card front
Stampin' Up! Offset gatefold Sunflower 3D card front

The card on the left is made with a Bubble Bath card base, embossed Basic White card stock, and Bubble Bath ink. The card on the right is made with Fresh Freesia card stock and a layer of embossed Fresh Freesia sprinkled with WOW! Metallic Embossing Powder in silver and heat set with the heat tool. It gives this card a real element of elegance. The sentiment on each card is from the Everday Greetings stamp set die cut with the Tailor Made Tags Dies. White Basic Twine was run through the hole in the tag and tied into a bow. The tag was adhered with dimensionals to the larger side of the card front.

For the inside of the card… I had started with a 4 x 5 1/4 Basic White panel to emboss with the Sunflower Embossing folder. After inking the debossed side, I trimmed it down and there was a narrow remaining piece – which I adhered to the Basic White insert. I also stamped the sentiment: Bubble Bath for the first card and Fresh Freesia for the second. These were adherred and the cards were complete.

For the envelope… I took another strip of Basic White, ran it through the Sunflower 3D embossing folder, inked the debossed side: again, Bubble Bath ink for the first card and Fresh Freesia for the second card. For the second card I again sprinkled it with WOW! Metallic embossing powder in silver and heat set it. Each was adhered to a Basic White envelope and trimmed to fit. Card cuts are listed below.

Just a word about inking an embossed panel… if you saw yesterday’s post, it indicated a 45 degree angle when running the ink pad along the embossed piece. For these cards, the angle was more like a 20 degree angle and I liked it much better. Practice, right?!

Card cuts:

  • Card bass 8 1/2 x 5 1/2 scored on long side @ 1 1/4 & 5 1/2
  • Embossed layer 4 x 5 1/4 trimmed to 2 7/8 x 5 14, 1 x 5 1/4, remainder used for inside
  • Basic White for inside 4 x 5 1/4
  • Envelope flap 2 1/4 x 6, adhered & trimmed to fit

Stampin’ Up! Sunflower 3D and Woven Textures DSP for the Happy Inkin’ Thursday Blog Hop

Welcome to our Blog Hop! I want to give a shout out to a new person in our Thursday lineup for the blog hop – Nicole Bloxom. Can’t wait to see what she has created for today’s sketch challenge. Welcome Nicole!

So… this has been a stressful week – I learned I must have a heart catheterization tomorrow (7/18) with the possibility of a stent. I’m not used to this – having a cardiologist & all that, testing & so forth. It took my mojo & I’m having a bit of trouble creating… so bear with me. You may remember, I had a knee replacement back in early May – that has meant PT 3 x/ week since then. Today’s card is for my Physical Therapist as today is my last day for PT. WOOHOO!!! And just so you know, I can bend my knee on my own to 120 degrees and walk without a limp – no one would ever know I had a knee replacement. 😀

Stampin' Up! Sunflower 3D & Woven Textures card front

I used a new embossing folder from the July ONLINE EXCLUSIVES called Sunflower 3D embossing folder. It’s a stand alone item, which is unusual. I embossed the sunflower then colored it with Stampin’ Blends Darling duckling, Pecan Pie & Garden Green then fussy cut this single flower with my paper snips. I put dimensionals on the back and attached it to a Basic White panel 3 1/2″ square then to Pecan Pie card stock 1/8″ larger. I took Woven Textures DSP & cut it 3 1/2″ square and added that to Pecan Pie cardstock 1/8″ larger, then adhered these squares together as shown. For the background I ran a 4 x 5 14 panel of Basic White through the Exposed Brick 3D embossing folder then to another of the same design Woven Textures DSP 1/8″ larger – and attached to the Pecan Pie A2 card base. I used my Early Espresso Marker to ‘flip’ some splatters to the upper portion.The sentiment is from Sunshine Vibes stamp set stamped in Pecan Pie ink on a 1/2″ strip of Basic White adhered to Darling Duckling just 1/8″ wider. This was added to the flower with liquid glue then I added a single mini dimensional under the ‘s’. Myn final touch was three Neutral Matte Dots in Pecan Pie.

Stampin' Up! Sunshine Vibes inside card

For the inside… I wanted something light & positive. Pulling out that same Sending Sunshine stamp set, I stamped the half sun in Darling duckling then the rays (stamped twice) in Crushed Curry, then the sentiment in Pecan Pie – all on a Basic White 4 x 5 1/4. I added this to the same pattern of Woven Textures DSP 4 1/8 x 5 3/8, added them both to the inside of the card – and done! As I mentioned, this card is to my Physical Therapist, but there are two therapists in this office. We joke with one another, share stories, kid around and WORK OUR ROUTINE to get where we need to be. It has been a good experience and I will miss these folks.

Stampin' Up! Sunflower 3D & Woven textures card & envelope

The envelope – keeping it simple, a piece of the same pattern of Woven Textures DSP adhered to the flap & trimmed to fit. That’s it. Want to purchase the products to make this card?

Window Pop-Out Card with Florals in Bloom DSP & More

Hello Monday! It’s a new week, actually a new day – – and it is NOT raining here. Whew! We need the rain to fill our reservoirs; I like rain; but the days are a bit gloomy. We had sunshine for a bit of the day & it felt good. Thank you for the rain; and thank you for the sunshine!

My card today uses the ever-popular Arches Dies found in the ONLINE EXCLUSIVES. I’ve paired it with one of the new In Colors for 2025-2026 called Cloud Cover plus a beautiful Florals In Bloom DSP. I either fussy cut the flowers with my paper snips, or die cut them with a die from Pretty Florals Dies or Sweet Blooms Dies. Both of these dies and the DSP are part of a new suite of products in the 2025-2026 Annual Catalog – the Florals In Bloom Suite.

Stampin' Up! Window Pop-Out card front with Florals in Bloom Suite

This card begins with a standard A2 card base in Cloud Cover. The DSP layer is just 1/8″ smaller all around and is from the Florals In Bloom pack. It is from the other side of this sheet that I either fussy cut or die cut the flowers for the front of this card. :O) Ah, but I jump ahead… after adhering the DSP to the card front, open card & use the 4th largest die in the Arches Dies to center it on the front & die cut the arch. This may take running it back & forth a couple of times.

Stampin' Up! Window Pop-Out Card, die cutting front

Now prepare the inside panel… 6 1/2 x 5 3/8 scored at 2 & 4 on the long side. Prepare two ‘hinges’ cutting 3″ x 1 1/4″, scored @ 1 1/2. Add Tear n’ Tape in several places then cut in half lengthwise, thereby creating 2 hinges. Add Tear n’ Tape to the BACK SIDE of the 2 1/2″ panel. On that same back side, add the hinges with the fold at the outside edge, one at top & one at bottom. Refer to photos below.

back side of card insert front side of card insert

Remove tape cover & add insert to to inside of card with 1/8″ edge top, right & bottom. Fold insert along score lines, remove tape cover on hinges and with them flat & sticky side up, close card front. Boom! Now, with card closed & ‘window’ uncovered, add adhesive or Tear n’ Tape to open area – see photo… & attach die cut arch & decorate! ….

Stampin' Up! Window Pop-Out Card Template 3
Stampin' Up! Window Pop-Out Card front.2

As mentioned earlier, I either fussy cut with my paper snips or die cut with appropriate dies all the flowers. On the bottom right, this flower was Cloud Cover so that when the card is opened, there is a ‘like’ image inside – cut 2. After adhering, circle & flower were trimmed to card front edges.

Additional info:

  • DSP added to inside of card is 1 7/8 x 5 1/4, decorated with a die cut from the DSP (Sweet Blooms Dies)
  • Basic White panel on far right is 2 3/8 x 5 1/4
  • Embellishments on fron are 2024-2026 In Color Shimmer Gems
  • Wink of Stella was added to shaded areas of all flowers
  • This is what the card looks like from the top

For the envelope…

Stampin' Up! Window Pop-Out card & envelope

More of the same DSP from Florals In Bloom DSP pack (just the other side) adhered to the flap & trimmed to fit. On the front, another fussy cut flower added to the edge of the envelope front.

I had so much fun creating this card. It was pretty easy really and the fun came in the decorating. I would love to see what you do with this Window Pop-Out card design.
