Posted on December 22, 2025 by stampsnlingers

Good morning and happy Monday! The LAST Monday before the Big Day!! Are you getting that last minute gift shopping done? Or…maybe you’re still looking for that perfect something! I’ve got just the thing for the crafter in your life (or….perhaps you can let someone know that YOU’D like this one!).

We’ve got an amazing new catalog going live in a couple of weeks and any card maker would be tickled sideways to have a little mad-money to spend, right? So…maybe a Gift Certificate from me – in any amount! – would be an awesome option – for Christmas !! 🙂

Posted on December 21, 2025 by stampsnlingers

Happy Sunday, y’all! Hope you’re having a good weekend!

Today’s card is another Sneak Peek from the Jan-Apr 2026 Mini Catalog. These are a couple of – maybe! – fly-overs! The first is the Hope Love & Joy bundle and a paper pack you for sure might have overlooked – the Mixed Up Patterns Mix-In DSP! I added those to some available-right-not goodies – the Layered Thoughts stamp set and the big, beautiful Party Banners die set – to make a pretty birthday card. Take a look-see:

Stampin’ UP! Endless Valentine’s Day Sneak Peek Card for the Happy Inkin’ Thursday Blog Hop

Posted on December 18, 2025 by stampsnlingers

Good morning, y’all It’s Thursday – which means it’s time for another Happy Inkin’ Thursday Blog Hop. We’ve got a sketch challenge to work with and I’m excited to see what everyone brings to the table. I just know you’re going to see a ton of awesome-ness on the hop today!

I decided to make another Valentine’s day card for you (it’ll be here before you can blink!). Our sketch was perfect (IMHO) for the new Valentine’s Day stamp – coming on 6 Jan in the new Jan-Apr 2026 Mini Catalog. I added the Made with Love DSP (also in the new catalog) – and some black (a fave with these colors). Take a look-see:

Stampin’ UP! Country Woods Unbridled Beauty Sneak Peek Card

Posted on December 17, 2025 by stampsnlingers

Happy Happy Hawwmp Day, y’all! Here we are – one week and a day from Christmas!! Whoo-hoo!!

I was asked a question the other day – being a horse-person, had I gotten the new Unbridled Beauty (an Online Exclusive coming on 6 Jan) and, if I had, was I going to use it any time soon!?

Doh! 🤦‍♀️🤦‍♀️ Of COURSE I had gotten that new set – and of COURSE I needed to use it! So…I did!

I paired it with some Country Woods DSP – in the Annual Catalog – to make this pretty card – would work easy-peasy for a guy! – that is ready to send to a friend! Take a look-see:

Stampin’ UP! Aspen Grove & Boardwalk Fun Sneak Peek Birthday Card

Posted on December 16, 2025 by stampsnlingers

‘Sup, y’all!? I hope this last full week before Christmas is going well for you! Other than being cold as a well-digger’s lunch bucket, we’re doing well. Grateful for rolling doors on the barn and plug-in heated water buckets, though, I must say!

Today’s card uses a couple of new stamp sets – the pretty Aspen Grove set and the Boardwalk Fun set. And – there’s some embossing from the new Stone & & Vine 3D Embossing Folder. You can get it all on 6 Jan 2026 in the new Jan-Apr 2026 Mini Catalog! Take a look-see:

Stampin’ UP! CAS Thanking You Pine Tree Thank You Cards

Posted on December 15, 2025 by stampsnlingers

Good morning and happy Monday! Well – the cold hit yesterday – with a windy blast of arctic air. So – the barn is all closed up – the plants in the garage – a heated water bucket hung on the outside gate so I don’t have to break ice in the trough in the morning. It’s going to be 19 – with a wind chill down to I-don’t-even-know. I can see all y’all northerners rolling yer eyes. 🙄 But – this is the SOUTH! So…that’s way too danged cold for this kid!

As I was looking at my list of thank-you’s that I need to send, I realized that this would be a good time to make a card that would easily make mulitples. I hit on the Thanking You stamp from the Annual Catalog and paired it with a tree from the Pine Tree Trimmings set. Add a double frame and…boom! Take a look-see:

Good morning and happy Sunday! Hope your weekend is going well and that you’re getting to the end of your need-to-get-done-before-Christmas list! I have three things left to wrap and I am done! Yeah!

Today I’ve got another sneaky peek at the new Cute as a Bug suite – coming soon on 6 Jan 2026 in the Jan-Apr 2026 Mini Catalog. With the darling paper of the same name – and the coordinating Sweet Bugs bundle – it’s just too stinkin’ cute to NOT have on your gotta-have-it list! Take a look-see:
