Happy Happy Hawwwmp Day, y’all! Hope you’re having fun saving 15% off a TON of 2025-2027 In Color products! I stocked up on cardstock and new Stampin’ Blends. And embellishments! And the new kit. Okay – I got ALL the new kits – but…the Bunch of Thanks Kit is on SALE! 🙂
My Christmas card today uses…no 2025-2027 In Colors. But… it’s still pretty and fun – it uses the always-amazeballs Timeless Plaid 6″ x 6″ DSP and the Online Exclusive Jar of Joy stamp set – with the Sweet Jar Builder Punch. Take a look-see:
I took inspiration from Bobby’s card in the Just Us Girls Challenge this week.
I embossed a Basic Beige panel in the Forever Plaid 3D Embossing Folder and adhered it to the front of my Basic Beige card base using Stampin’ Dimensionals.
I cut out a piece of Timeless Plaid 6″ x 6″ DSP using the largest Stylish Shapes sqaure die and adhered it with Liquid Glue – tipped up as a diamond.
On a piece of Basic White cardstock, I stamped the gingerbread men from the Jar of Joy stamp set in Crumb Cake ink. Then I stamped the second image – the details – in Cajun Craze.
I also stamped the Jar of Joy sentiment and the jar lid three times in Cajun Craze ink
Around the gingerbread men and the sentiment, I added the jar outline in Smoky Slate ink. Then I punched out everything – the three jars and the three lids – with the Sweet Jar Builder Punch.
I colored the lids with the Light Peach Pie Stampin’ Blend.
Using Liquid Glue, I adhered the cookie jars to the card front. Then I popped the sentiment on with Stampin’ Dimensionals.
I added the three jars with Liquid Glue – adding a Dimensional under the lid on the sentiment jar.
I colored five white Shimmer Star Foam Stickers with the Dark Peach Pie Stampin’ Blend – and added them to the card front – and it was done!
On the inside, I stamped a second Jar of Joy sentiment – and the jar lid image a couple times – in Cajun Craze ink. I colored the lids again with the Light Peach Pie Stampin’ Blend.
I used Liquid Glue to adhere the panel to the inside of the Basic Beige card base and the card was done.
My Basic White Medium Envelope got the Jar of Joy lids on the front…
…and more of the Timeless Plaid 6″ x 6″ DSP on the envelope flap.
Et Voila! So…how cute are those gingerbread cookies?! Answer: VERY cute! The Jar of Joy set will let you make Christmas cookies – or…some little ornaments or even a snowman – with the sentiments to go with! But – here’s a pro tip for you. Buy the Sweet Jar BUNDLE – and you’ll get the Sweet Jar Builder Punch AND the Sweet Jar stamp set (think…birthday cards, Good luck cards, Valentine’s cards!) while saving 10% off the individual prices – and ALSO buy the Jar of Joy stamp set at the same time. Two stamp sets – one Punch! You’ll be set for all your year-round card making needs!
I hope you like!

BACK-TO-SCHOOL SALES TAX HOLIDAYS COMING UP!

The 2025 back-to-school sales tax holiday season begins this weekend and there are twelve states (Alabama, Arkansas, Florida, Massachusetts, New Mexico, Ohio, South Caroling, Tennessee, Texas, Virginia, and West Virginia) offering a sales tax holiday for school supplies during the months of July and August. Products that are eligible according to the statute include “items normally used by students in a standard classroom for educational purposes.” Click the table below to open the chart and see what is available and when! 🙂
Please note that you must place your order with Stampin’ Up! DURING the tax holiday period to receive these items tax-free. Also, keep in mind that this is a STATE SALES TAX holiday; the state statute may not apply to county, city, and special jurisdiction taxes.
FLORIDA – YOU’RE UP ALL MONTH!!

For all y’all that live in Georgia, Illinois, Louisiana, New Jersey, and Wisconsin…sorry! Those states suspended the sales tax holiday again this year. 🙁
