Stampin’ UP! Boardwalk Joyful Squares Front Z-Fold Birthday Card with Video

Posted on January 23, 2026 by stampsnlingers

Happy Happy Friday, y’all! Hope your week has been good – and…that you are NOT in the path of this ginormous winter storm! We’re sort of on the bottom edge – so…it’s gonna get cold as a well-digger’s lunch bucket on Sunday…but…it’s probably a coin toss on ice or snow! So…I guess we’ll see what we see!

Today’s card is a cool fun fold – I’m sort of calling it a Front Z-Fold card. It features the fun (sort of a fly-over!) Joyful Squares bundle and the coordinating Square Snippets DSP! I pulled a pretty sentiment from the Boardwalk Fun set to make it into a birthday card. Take a look-see:

Stampin’ UP! Sunshine & Tulips Thinking of You Card with Video

Posted on January 18, 2026 by stampsnlingers

Happy Sunday, y’all! As I type this on Saturday evening we’re wondering if the snow will come this far north. Yes – this far NORTH! They’re calling for SNOW in south Georgia and the Florida panhandle! Which is a Big Deal (if it comes). It usually doesn’t last long, but…I’m sure there’s not a loaf of bread or carton of milk to be found anywhere south of Macon right now! 😉

Today’s card uses a sweet new bundle – the Sunshine & Tulips bundle (from the new Jan-Apr 2026 Mini) – to make a card to send to a friend who might just need to know someone is thinking of them. Take a look-see:

Stampin’ UP! Take a Look at the New Adopt A Pet Kit!!

Posted on January 14, 2026 by stampsnlingers

Good morning and Happy Happy Hawwwmp Day! Hope your week is going swimmingly!

We have three new – and wunnermus! – kits in our Kit Collection! Two card kits and a darling 3-D Project kit! THAT kit – the Adopt a Pet Kit – is the first thing I put together when my boxes arrived in the mail. I bought TWO of them – and wanted to check that it’s easy enough for a four-year old to put together with some help from her Mom! The answer?? It sure is!

It took me about 30 minutes to put all four of the totes-adorbs little animals AND their kennel/cage/house/box together. Check them out!
