Stampin’ Up! Brushed Petals Front Flap Fun Fold Card with Video

Posted on March 15, 2026 by stampsnlingers

Well – happy Sunday, y’all! OnStage is in the books – we saw some amazing new things – learned new coloring techniques, new project ideas – it was pretty wonderful! I can’t WAIT for you to see what’s coming to you SOON! 🎉 I’m spending a couple hours with my brother this morning and then will head to the airport to wing my way back to Georgia! These events always just FLY by! 🥺 I’m already looking forward to next year!

Today’s card is a fun fold – made so by just ONE slightly different cut on the card base – which makes it a super EASY fun fold! And – I decorated this one with gorgeous Brushed With Beauty DSP and flowers from the coordinating Petals of Beauty bundle. Sentiments in a gorgeous font, from the Forever Florals stamp set, sends the perfect message. Take a look-see:

Stampin’ UP! CAS Help Me Grow Lovely Blossoms Sneak Peek Card

Posted on February 9, 2026 by stampsnlingers

Happy Monday, y’all! I’ve always thought that the day after Super Bowl should be a holiday. I mean – anyone who watches all the way thru – with or without libations! – is likely not at their best today, right!? Might as well just call it what it is! I DO watch – mostly for the commercials (but I did throw my hat in with the Seahawks early in the game) – and I might or might NOT make it ALL the way thru!!

Today’s card is a little sneak peek at a new bundle coming on 3 March in the March 2026 Online Exclusives. It’s the Help Me Grow bundle and it’s chock-a-block full of fun foliage! I paired it up with my fave Lovely Blossoms DSP and…a new embossing folder! Take a look-see:

Stampin’ UP! Endless Love Notes Valentine’s Card for the Happy Inkin’ Thursday Blog Hop

Posted on January 8, 2026 by stampsnlingers

Good morning, y’all It’s Thursday – the FIRST one of 2026!! And that makes it time for another Happy Inkin’ Thursday Blog Hop. We’ve got a color 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 got a cool card in the mail the other day, from one of my teammates. It reminded me how much I like “inchie” cards. She’d taken it up a notch, using black sqaures to make the card front look dimensional. So – I shamelessly copied the idea to make today’s Valentine’s Day card with the Endless Love stamp set and some Love Notes Mix & Match DSP. Take a look-see:
