Stampin’ UP! Arched Spotlight Frosted Pinecones Friendship Card with Video

Posted on September 11, 2026 by stampsnlingers

Good morning and happy Friday! It’s a momentous Friday, for sure. I can’t wrap my head around the fact that it’s been 25 years since the planes were flown into the Towers and the Pentagon and almost into the White House. As I’m sure is the case for many of you – I remember that day all too well.

Today’s card is a sympathy or encouragement card – and it spotlights the new Frosted Pinecones stamp set – with its wonderful masks! I pulled sentiments from the new Thinking of You stamp set – and put it all on Wood Grain Wonders DSP! Take a look-see:

Stampin’ Up! All Aflutter Foil Garden Card For a Friend

Posted on August 5, 2026 by stampsnlingers

Happy Happy Hawwwmp Day, y’all! How goes the week – and the DSP and cardstock sale?! I know a bunch of you are taking advantage of that AND of my Embellishment Ordering Special! Yeah!!

Today’s card is the result of a question on my Monday Zoom the Craftroom. One of my friends wondered how a Hot Foiled image would do if it was dry embossed. Naturally, I figured the best answer was to…do one! So – I hot foiled a piece of Calypso Coral cardstock with the Garden Silhouette Hot Foil Die and then embossed it in the Rustic Check 3D Embossing Folder (a new goody available to customers on 1 Sept!). It worked – perfectly! I hated to waste the panel, though – so…I pulled out the All Aflutter bundle and the Spotlight on Nature dies and made a card! Take a look-see:

Happy Happy Friday, y’all! Hope you’ve had a great week! I got my pre-order from the Sept-Dec 2026 Catalog AND the Sept 2026 Online Exclusives on Wednesday – and I’ve got my craft room all sorted and set up and everything put away! Whoo-hoo!

I ALSO took a minute to play with a couple of new goodies that you’ll be able to get on 1 Sept! TBH, the pretty Sunflower Fields DSP has been calling me since we got it on the Alaska trip and I couldn’t keep from using it! I added some beautiful die cut flowers from the coordinating Radiant Sunflowers bundle and…a couple other goodies – to make today’s pretty card! Take a look-see:

Stampin’ UP! Simply Beautifully Celebrated Card for the Happy Inkin’ Thursday Blog Hop

Posted on March 5, 2026 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 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!

Our color palette led me right to the Lovely & Beautiful Specialty DSP – so…it made sense in my head to ALSO use the Beautifully Celebrated and Simply Beautiful bundles – all in the same suite in the Jan-Apr 2026 Mini Catalog. I used them to make a pretty card to send to a friend. 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:

Posted on August 8, 2025 by stampsnlingers

Good morning everyone – and…happy Fri-Yay!! Hope you’ve had a great week!

Today’s card is one that…you don’t often see from me – it’s a Shaker card! I know! Whoda thunk it? But – I was working thru the card that was in my head and all of a sudden – it was totally obvious that it NEEDED to be a shaker! It had started with the Prairie Grass stamp set – a window sheet – and some Beautiful Gallery 6″ x 6″ DSP. And it ended up….well, take a look-see:
