Good morning and happy Tuesday, y’all! And – happy SEPTEMBER!!
As I promised yesterday – there’s a TON of new things for you to see – and grab – and play with – all starting today! Now, in fact! So – hit the bathroom, getcha a cuppa something hot (or a glass of something cold!) and…settle in for a bit!
First off – to get us started and kick off the fun RIGHT….I’m offering a DOUBLE Peppermint Ordering Special!
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!
We’ve got a lovely new Christmas stamp set getting ready to go live in the Sept-Dec 2026 Catalog – it’s simply called Rejoice and it’s beautiful! I used it – and some new Winter Dreams Specialty DSP (coming on 1 Sept in the Online Exclusives) to make a simple, monochromatic Christmas card. Take a look-see:
Good morning everyone! Welcome to this month’s Fun Fold Blog Hop for Stampin’ Up! Demonstrators! We’ve got a talented line-up and…I think you’re going to like what you see! This is a once-a-month hop and…all our cards will be fun folds!! How cool is that?!?
Today’s card is a cool and easy fun fold – it’s a double z-fold card that I decorated with a little old…and a little new! I pulled a couple of pretty designs from the Paper Medley Mix-In DSP (the “old”) and then used the “new” Everlasting Thanks stamp set (coming on 1 Sept!). Take a look-see:
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 challenge led me to using Poppy Parade (one of my fave “reds”) as my main color and so…I pulled out some new Timeless Christmas DSP and the almost-too-obvious…new Santa’s Hat stamp set – both coming on 1 Sept in the new catalog – to make a cute Christmas card for you! Take a look-see:
Good morning and happy Monday! Is that an oxymoron for you?! If it is – I am sorry!! 🙂
Today’s card is a Halloween card – I know. I wasn’t going to do more Halloween cards and then I saw the Design a Tag stamp set – coming new in the Sep-Dec 2026 Catalog on 1 Sept. It’s got fun little sentiments – and a super cute witch’s hat and….I had to use it! So I combined it with the Tile Garden die set – also coming new in the new catalog and some Frightfully Fun DSP (available right now!). Take a look-see:
Happy Happy Hawwwmp Day, y’all! Hope your week is going well!
We’re only a couple of weeks away from the launch of the new Sept-Dec 2026 Catalog AND the new Sept 2026 Online Exclusives AND the next Hot Foil Release! Whoohoo! So..it’s a good thing I’ve got a little sneaky peek at some goodies you’ll be able to GET on 1 Sept!
Like…the Magical Christmas Hot Foil Dies and the Yuletide Carols DSP! I added a sentiment and a few little pine boughs from the Pretty Poinsettia bundle – an Online Exclusives that you can get right now! Take a look-see:
Well – y’all take a moment to congratulate yourself for getting to the other side of a work week! Whoo-hoo! I hope your weekend is looking to be a good one! Ours is up in the air – no plans on the horizon right now! Feels like it’ll be a quiet one.
I’ve got another sneak peek at the new Painted Patch Suite – with the Painted Pumpkins bundle and Painted Patch DSP, plus the pretty Painted Patch Adhesive-backed Dots (love these!). I used them to make a very cool fun fold – it’s a double gate card – and it’s really fun to make. Take a look-see:
You’ll see this card – along with the other Design Team members’ cards – at this month’s Creative Creases Challenge! 😎 We’re ALWAYS wanting to see pretty fun folds so…I hope hope hope you’ll make one (or three!) and come share them with us! 🙂 Continue reading
Good morning, y’all It’s Thursday, which means it’s time for another Happy Inkin’ Thursday Blog Hop. We’ve got a theme 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!
It’s been a minute since I made a gate fold card so…I decided to go with that this week. I decorated my DOUBLE gate fold Christmas card with pretty much ALL the new goodies in the Neutral Noel Suite – coming on 1 Sept in the new Sept-Dec 2026 Catalog! There are two wonderful bundles – the Noel Tidings and Welcome Noel bundles, gorgeous Neutral Noel Specialty DSP and the awesome Softly Woven 3D Embossing Folder. And a few others goodies, too! Take a look-see:
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 Monday, y’all! Hope you had a great weekend! We did a lot of hunkering – either avoiding the heat, the rain or…both! I am VERY ready for FALL!
Today’s card is another sneak peek from the Sep-Dec 2026 Catalog – which means it’ll all be gettable on 1 Sept for you! Unless you join the team – then you can get it RIGHT NOW! I used the new Tile Garden bundle – and the beautiful coordinating Mosaic Garden DSP to make an easy fun fold birthday card! Take a look-see:
