Stampin’ Up! Last Chance List Refresh!

A lot of us who have been around for awhile are used to retirement lists when a catalog was ending, and certain products would no longer be sold, even if they were still in stock. Then Stampin’ Up! started a Clearance Rack and brought back some retired products and gave us a discounted price. For awhile now, we have had the “Last Chance Products” category. As demand for a product changes, Stampin’ Up! moves products to the Last Chance Products category in the online store and that begins the retiring process to make room for new products. The Last Chance Products will be an ongoing offer, so we can all shop this category at any time throughout the year! On April 1st, Stampin’ Up!

Easter Joy Candy Treat With Bunny

Leave a reply

It’s time to make some candy treats for Easter, like this Easter Joy Candy Treat With Bunny. This is an easy little treat to make, and you can change it up for any occasion or celebration. For Easter, you can’t make a project any easier than to use the Easter Joy Specialty Designer Series Paper! Not every paper pattern is exclusively for Easter, but some are. Even the ones that are not “Easter” are just so pretty with bright colors with a bit of a shiny look to the paper. You can use this paper even after Easter.

To make this little treat box, start with a piece of cardstock 5 1/2″ x 7″. Once you know how to make it, I’m sure you could modify the size. Putting the 7″ top of the paper at the top of the Paper Trimmer or Scoring Tool, score at 3″, turn and score at 3″ on the other side. Or you could say, score at 3″ and 4″, giving you a 1″ space in the center for the box that will hold the candy. Turn the paper to the 5 1/2″ side and score at 1″ on both sides in the same way. Crease and fold on all the score lines. From the top and from the bottom, cut on the 1″ score lines up to the center 3″ score lines. This will make the flaps that will form the candy box inside.

In the photo above, you can see how those side flaps fold inward and make the little inside box to hold the candy. I adhered the flaps together to make the box, being careful where one side was shorter than the other, not to get glue past where it will be exposed. OR you can glue these flaps to the front and back sides of the treat box. I did it the way I did it, but realized I could have done it the other way, too. You will see when you assemble it!

Then decorate the front at least, maybe the back, too, if you like. I added a piece of the Easter Joy DSP with tulips and daffodils. The sides are 3 1/2″ wide x 3″ tall, so I cut the DSP at 3 1/4″ x 2 3/4″. The bunny is stamped with Memento ink on Basic White using the Easter Basket Stamp Set. The carrot is also stamped and colored with Watercolor Pencils (simply because my husband was in the way of my Stampin’ Blends!). I cut it out and had the bunny hold it in his paws!

At the top, I punched a small hole through both the front and back and ran a ribbon through. It’s the Garden Green 1/8″ Chevron Ribbon. Instead of tying it in a bow right there, I left the ends loose, and tied another piece of ribbon around in a box to hold those loose ends. I don’t very often think about doing ribbon like this, but I think it is a cute way to do it. Before you tie it up, though, remember to put your candy treat inside! Or a small gift! Have fun making your treat box!

What a Great Product of the Month For April!

Leave a reply

No, it’s not an April Fool’s joke! Stampin’ Up! started this new promotion back in December 2025, offering a Product of the Month for only $5.00 with a minimum $75 order, while supplies last! In the past four months we have had two stamp sets and two packages of designer series paper. For April, the offer is the Eyelet Blooms Die! When can you buy a die like this one for only $5?

“The Eyelet Blooms Die is the finishing touch you didn’t know you needed. Whether you’re crafting a card or creating a scrapbook page, it transforms the space with soft texture and refined detail. Its intricate pattern creates a full background that fills large areas beautifully for a polished, handcrafted look in one easy cut.”

You will be able to use this die lots of ways! You can diecut a piece of cardstock the same size as this die and use it that way or cut it into smaller pieces. Use just the little flowers. There will be many creative things to do with it! This is one of those dies, I think, that doesn’t cut out individual pieces, but you can use the entire thing as a background, or as I said, cut up smaller if you like. I suppose it looks a bit like quilting and there certainly are a lot of stampers also into quilting.

When you order and use any Rewards you have earned, remember those will be subtracted from your product amount, and you need to stay at or above $75 to be eligible to purchase the Product of the Month. Something will pop up on your screen when you hit the correct amount. So, depending on your order, maybe save your Rewards for a different order when you are not trying to get the Product of the Month.

Here are some details:

You MUST have a Stampin’ Up! account. If you need help setting up an account, you can ask me or contact Stampin’ Up! at 1-800-STAMP-UP.
Your cart total MUST be $75 USD or more at checkout to qualify.
The Product of the Month is limited to one month’s product per Stampin’ Up! account. They are only available while supplies last.
The only way you can qualify for Product of the Month is with a single order that reaches the qualifying amount, not several separate orders.

I could be wrong, but I think this die might be very popular for only $5 so if you really want it, better order early!

Slimline Easter Joy Easter Eggs and Bunny Card

Leave a reply

Here’s another Easter card, the Slimline Easter Joy Easter Eggs and Bunny Card, made with scraps! Scraps of what? When you diecut the basket in the Easter Basket Dies, the part that pops out inside the handle is a scrap. But you can use it for an Easter egg! Especially when you use the Easter Joy Specialty Designer Series Paper, which has such pretty colors and designs. If I wanted to be perfect, I could have trimmed the edges of the “eggs” to remove the slight scalloped edges, but they are barely noticeable.

This is a slimline card which means it is long and narrow compared to what we usually make. I like to make slimline cards 3″ x 6″ so that they fit into regular small envelopes (not the business size) that you probably have around the house. I started with a 6″ x 6″ piece of Soft Sea Foam cardstock, scored and folded at 3″.

I cut a strip of Shy Shamrock cardstock for the grass and snipped it from the top to make it 3D grass. You can make it as high or short as you like. The diecut “eggs” from the basket are “hidden” in the grass. I fit in four, made with the Easter Joy DSP. You can use either side of the paper, or you can use plain or stamped cardstock, whatever you like.

The greeting is stamped on a strip of Basic White with Shy Shamrock ink. The Easter bunny is stamped in Memento ink with a little light pink inside the ears and nose. The little Easter eggs scattered on the front of the grass are cut out from the Easter Joy DSP except for the yellow one, which is diecut from the Pastels Shimmer Paper. When you are cutting or die-cutting certain things, if you make extras and save them, then they are handy to add to future cards or projects when you just want a little something more.

If you look in the Online Store at the Easter Joy Designer Series Paper and scroll through the photos of the paper and sample ideas, if you go to the very end, you will see the idea with an egg carton and these Easter eggs along the back in the “grass” and an Easter tag greeting with a bunny. It’s very cute! Save your egg carton, and you can make one too!

Flowers Fair Lovely Day Card

Leave a reply

I knew it wouldn’t be long until I tried out stamping and coloring all these flowers on this new stamp “set” I recently got! This Flowers Fair Lovely Day Card is how a card might look if you inked up the whole stamp and then had fun coloring in the various flowers. The coloring actually goes pretty easily and quickly, so don’t get scared about it!

If you do not want to do a lot of coloring, check out my monochromatic card using this stamp set HERE.

First, I chose the colors I was going to use to color the flowers, and then I used a couple of the same colors for the card itself. The card base is Melon Mambo with a Peach Pie layer. I had cut the Basic White cardstock to the usual 4″ x 5 1/4″ when I stamped it with the Flowers Fair Stamp Set, which really isn’t a set, it is one large stamp! We used to call these a background stamp. When I decided to add the Peach Pie cardstock layer, I just trimmed down the stamped piece to 3 3/4″ x 5″.

The flowers are colored with Stampin’ Blends alcohol markers, but you could use Watercolor Pencils, Pastels, ink and a Water Painter...whatever you like! In this case, the flowers are stamped with Memento Ink, but you could use Stazon if that suited your coloring better. However, we will be getting a new Hybrid black ink pad in the new May catalog! The flower colors are Melon Mambo, Peach Pie, and Pretty In Pink. First I used the Light Stampin’ Blend color, then used the Dark to add some shading. You can also add another color to the flower, you don’t have to stick with only the light and dark markers of one color. The leaves were colored with Soft Sea Foam Stampin’ Blends and maybe a little Granny Apple Green.

The greeting is stamped in Memento ink on Basic White and diecut with one of the circle dies in Spotlight On Nature. You will find the greeting in the Paradise Garden Stamp Set. I love this little pattern that cuts out around the edge. To help those little designs stand out, I cut a piece of Melon Mambo with a plain Stylish Shapes Die right behind it. I didn’t want to cover up any more flowers than necessary, so I didn’t want to make a larger layer. I just added it to show behind the greeting. This is popped up with Stampin’ Dimensionals right over the White With Gold 3/8″ Ribbon, which just goes across the lower part of the card, so it would be centered with the greeting. I also added a few Iridescent Foil Gems, which I love! These go with almost anything.

If you want to get this Flowers Fair Stamp Set, you will find it in the Online Exclusives. The Paradise Garden Stamp Set is there, also!

Have fun working with these pretty flowers here in Spring!

Monochromatic Flowers Fair Big Hugs Card

Leave a reply

I just got this Flowers Fair Stamp Set, and I was inspired to make a monochromatic card with it to keep things simple! I haven’t really used this In Color, Darling Duckling very much, even though it’s been around for a year. I wasn’t sure how this color, on a monochromatic card, would look, but I think I like it! This Monochromatic Flowers Fair Big Hugs Card was certainly quick and easy to make.

The card base is Darling Duckling yellow. The fold is at the top because I cut the full sheet of paper lengthwise at 4 1/4″, then scored at 5 1/2″ for the fold. The bunch of flowers, from the one big Flowers Fair Stamp Set, is really just one big stamp! It will fit on the largest Clear Block F. You can either stamp down on the Basic White paper, or you can lay the cardstock on top of the inked stamp, rub your hand all over the paper to make sure it inks well, then pull the paper off. If you are concerned about getting ink on your fingers, just place a piece of computer paper or pull your Grid Paper over on top of the stamp and rub your hand over the whole thing.

I chose a greeting from the Delicate Framing Stamp Set, which you will find on the Last Chance list, even discounted a little bit! I love the font and the sentiments in this stamp set. I stamped it in Darling Duckling ink on Basic White cardstock and cut it out with one of the small rectangular dies in the Nested Essentials Dies. For a little pizzazz, I die cut a piece of Darling Duckling cardstock into a small banner. I cut the banner in half and used each half on the sides of the greeting. No one can tell I only cut a small banner and cut it in half to get a longer length out of it. It’s my secret! I popped this whole thing up with Stampin’ Dimensionals. I tried adding some Darling Duckling Ribbon but I didn’t have enough space. Instead, I added three pearls from the 2025-2027 In Color Flat Pearls in Darling Duckling. I really like that addition on this card.

This one big Flowers Fair Stamp Set stamp can also be stamped in Memento ink and colored with whatever medium you like. I’ll be making some cards with Stampin’ Blends soon, I’m sure!

Easy-To-Make Paper Easter Baskets

Leave a reply

These Easy-to-Make Paper Easter Baskets are not new ideas, but with new paper and stamps, it’s always fun to make new baskets for Easter! Nothing could be easier to make than these little baskets which will hold some “grass” and candy treats! They can be made larger or smaller depending on what you need. Just start with a square piece of paper!

This is a 6″ x 6″ square of Fresh Freesia cardstock. You can use designer series paper as well, as I did on the other basket. The cardstock is scored at 2″ and 4″, then turned and scored at 2″ and 4″ so it looks like a tic-tac-toe board. Fold and crease all the score lines. Cut vertically on the bottom score lines up to the first horizontal score line, then from the top down the same way. This makes the center sections, top and bottom, cut so that everything can be folded to make the basket. If you want to, round the corners with a corner rounder punch or just with your scissors. Also, cut a handle to match about 8″ or 8 1/2″ long and about 1/2″ or 3/4″ wide.

You can use the cardstock or designer paper as is after it is scored and creased, or you can use cardstock for the base of the basket and add designer series paper (or stamped images) to the sides to decorate. For this piece of Fresh Freesia cardstock, cut at 6″ x 6″, each square is 2″ x 2″, so to decorate, the designer paper is cut at 1 7/8″ x 1 7/8″ and glued on the four corners. The paper I used is the Lovely & Beautiful Specialty Designer Series Paper. This paper has gorgeous, large flowers primarily on the pages with gold foil accents, but I also loved this paper with the very small flowers. I think it is perfect for an Easter basket!

Fold the sides in to form the basket. Be careful where you apply adhesive (I preferred the Multipurpose Liquid Glue for those seconds when you can move the pieces into place, but you can use Stampin’ Seal if you like) so that you don’t get glue where it will show or be exposed. If you think ahead, try to insert the handle ends between the flaps on each side. If you forget, it is okay; it won’t be noticeable once you put the treats inside.

Decorate the basket however you like. I stamped bunnies from the Easter Basket Stamp Set and cut them out with dies in the Easter Basket Dies. They are colored or shaded with Stampin’ Blends alcohol markers. For the background behind the bunnies, I diecut circles from the Stylish Shapes Dies on one, and the Spotlight on Nature on the other basket. I stopped there to keep it simple, but you could stamp and diecut other Easter images with the Easter Basket Stamp Set to go with the bunny, cut out carrots, flowers, or eggs from the Easter Joy Designer Series Paper. You could also add a ribbon and bow to the handle. Do whatever you like! Put some Easter grass or paper “shred” in the basket or even make your own by cutting up cardstock into very thin strips, crimping with a crimper or crushing in your hands.

You can also make the basket just out of designer series paper, as I did with this basket. These gold foil flowers are the other side of the Fresh Freesia print flowers on the first basket. The basket is usually a little stronger made with cardstock, but you can use either. These baskets are cute for little gifts, party favors, or maybe table decorations at each place setting at your Easter dinner. Change the decoration and make these baskets for any occasion for little treat or gift holders.

Here is a link to other baskets I have made and posted on my blog in other years. They are still favorites! And a couple of baskets from last year! These are all fun to make and go together quickly, especially after you make the first one and see how they go together. You can even just make one or more for your own home decor! Bet you can’t make just one!

St. Patrick’s Day Green & Gold Card

Leave a reply

HAPPY ST. PATRICK’S DAY!

If you are celebrating St. Patrick’s Day today, this St. Patrick’s Day Green & Gold Card is for you! It turned out looking a little less traditional than I was expecting to make, but it certainly has lots of green! And there is gold and shamrocks, so I think it qualifies as a St. Patrick’s Day card.

The card base is Shaded Spruce cardstock. The green layer is the beautiful “other side” of the Garden Poetry Designer Series Paper. You will find this paper and Suite Collection in the March 2026 Online Exclusives. I love the different shades of color in this section of the paper. It makes for quite a striking background for this card, I think. This paper is layered on Gold Foil.

The rest of the card uses several different products to make the design. It wasn’t anything I imagined in my mind when I started, but piece by piece, I came up with this! The gold frame around the center is part of the Foiled Frames & Labels Ephemera Pack. The gold piece in the center of the frame is in the Beautifully Adorned Ephemera Pack. In another ephemera pack, Time For Celebration, I found this large shamrock, plus the two little ones lower on the card. The greeting is in the Greetings For All Ephemera Pack.

I love having all these ephemera packs to choose from when I am looking for a quick greeting or a fun image. They often make life easier when you are trying to make a card in a hurry!

Easter Card With Basket of Eggs

Leave a reply

This Easter Card With Basket of Eggs was fun to make and has a slightly different design just to make life interesting! You may notice that the top flap of the card does not come all the way to the bottom of the card. That just makes it a little more fun to open up this card for Easter!

The card base is Pretty In Pink (although in the photo it almost looks like Melon Mambo or some darker pink). Cut the full sheet of cardstock in half vertically at 4 1/4″, then score at 5 1/2″. That will give you either a side fold or a top fold. This card design will have the fold at the top, although you could really do the same type of design with a side fold.

On the front flap of the card, cut off whatever measurement you would like to shorten it. I cut off 1 1/4″ from the bottom of just the front of the card. That leaves space showing from the inside of the card on the outside on which you can add decorative paper, stamping, or a greeting. Stamp the greeting either right in that empty space or stamp it on another paper and adhere it, as I did.

The background layer for the card front is just a whimsical design in the Easter Joy Specialty Designer Series Paper. It has many colors, so you can choose any for your card base. I chose Pretty In Pink. This is a retiring In Color soon, so if you need more, perhaps you should stock up! This piece of DSP is cut at 4″ x 4″.

The Easter basket is cut from one of the papers with a basket weave look and color to it. Then I added a Crumb Cake scalloped edge to the basket. The Shy Shamrock green grass in the basket is also diecut. All of these dies are part of the Easter Basket Dies, which are currently unavailable. Hopefully, you have these dies already. I also diecut some Easter eggs out of the Pastels Shimmer Paper and put those in the Easter basket! At the top of the basket handle, I added a double bow tied with the Bubble Bath 1/8″ Faux Linen Ribbon. I love this ribbon even though it is not an exact color match. It is often just the right size to use when you don’t have space for wider ribbon.

On the inside of the card, I added a 4″ x 4″ Basic White cardstock piece. To the bottom of that, I added a piece of the Easter Joy designer paper in green, added a stamped, diecut, and colored tulip plus stamped a bunny right on the paper. He has a little color and shading with Stampin’ Blends.

At the bottom of the card, I added a “Happy Easter” greeting on a scrap strip of Basic White, which is adhered in that space. This is stamped with the Easter Basket Stamp Set in Pretty In Pink ink. It would also be pretty to stamp the greeting directly on the Pretty In Pink with Pretty In Pink ink plus some little image, too.

This is an example of how just one simple thing, making the front flap of the card shorter, makes for an unexpected, extra-special card design!

Easter Bunny Card

Leave a reply

Here is just a quick and simple card, the Easter Bunny Card. It is mostly made with pieces I already had handy on my table. Sometimes when I am stamping, diecutting, or coloring, I either change my mind about what I am going to use or I make extras at the time. Either way, I save those pieces and if they are lucky, I come across them again and use them on another project!

This card comes from one of the cut-apart panels in the Easter Joy Specialty Designer Series Paper. I love this paper for its spring colors and images. If you thought about spring and/or Easter, you would likely think of bunnies, flowers, baskets, Easter eggs, and soft pretty colors, and you would be imagining this paper. This paper is thicker than regular designer paper so it’s great for 3D projects, and it has a metallic shine to many of the pages. In other words, if you think about Easter paper, this is it! One feature is a couple of sheets have panels to cut apart and use separately, many of which are great for starting cards or using on scrapbook pages. Just build a little scene for a card on these panels. There are all different ones.

This card has a Shy Shamrock card base, one of the coordinating colors. The layer on that is one of those panels in the Easter Joy Designer Series Paper. The panel just has a green grass hill and pink flowers all in the background. It wasn’t my favorite, but I wanted to use it. I had an extra stamped and die-cut bunny so I added him to the hill with Stampin’ Dimensionals.

I had been diecutting Easter Eggs with the Easter Basket Dies (wish they added more than one egg die!) out of the Pastels Shimmer Specialty Paper. I also fussy-cut some Easter eggs from the Easter Joy paper that is totally full of Easter eggs. Some I cut a little inside their border to make them a bit smaller. I glued an assortment of all these eggs on the grassy hill with the bunny, as if he is the “King of the Hill” with all the Easter eggs!

The greeting is stamped in Memento ink on Basic White cardstock from the Easter Basket Stamp Set. Rather than adhering the whole greeting in one piece on the card, I cut around each word to make it a little whimsical to go with the card.

With the card background already made with the Easter Joy Designer Series Paper with these panels, finishing it off as a card is pretty easy! Especially with these cut bunnies to stamp in the Easter Basket Stamp Set! I really love everything about this Easter Joy DSP! And there are patterns that you can use any time of year, not just for Easter. The colorful stripes would be good for a birthday card, the plaids and other generic designs are great for lots of cards or scrapbook pages. The bunnies cute for baby cards!

Easter is coming soon on April 5th so it is time to be making Easter cards, decorations, treats, whatever you like!

Lovely & Beautiful Floral Birthday Card

Leave a reply

This Lovely & Beautiful Floral Birthday Card came about because I love this designer series paper with the big, beautiful flowers, and also this pretty sheet with the little pattern of Fresh Freesia flowers on the paper. The card has a little bit of everything – designer series paper, stamping, and some fussy-cutting!

The card base is Basic White, although Thick White cardstock might be preferable. The fold is at the top of the card. If you cut a full sheet of cardstock in half vertically at 4 1/4″, then score at 5 1/2″, you can have the fold at the top or to the left side.

The two patterns of the beautiful Lovely & Beautiful Specialty Designer Series Paper you see on this card are the same sheet, just both sides. I love the little Fresh Freesia purple flowers and green leaves all forming a grid design over the paper. The other side of the paper is the green color on the sides of the card with light images of foliage. I cut this paper at 4″ x 5 1/2″. This allows a little bit of white to show on each side of the card. I cut off the designer series paper at 1/2″ off each side. That makes the center portion 3″ wide.

The banner shape in the center is a diecut from the Creative Haven Dies. Since the top was going to be covered up with flowers, I lowered it on the page and stamped “Happy Birthday” three times at the bottom of the banner with Old Olive ink. This greeting is from the Lovely Arrangements Stamp Set.

The large flowers are cut from the designer series paper by hand with Paper Snips. I actually only cut the center part of a larger flower so it would fit on my card. After I cut out one flower, I decided I might as well cut out another one! It’s not difficult to fussy-cut images from the designer paper. One flower is popped up on Stampin’ Dimensionals and one adhered flat to the card. The leaves were also fussy-cut from the paper.

For an embellishment, I used three Garden Epoxy Dots in Flirty Flamingo. These are new embellishments in the March Online Exclusives. Half the package is solid color dots (Berry Burst, Blueberry Bushel, Crushed Curry, Flirty Flamingo) and half the package is clear with a tiny flower image inside each dot. They are part of the Garden Poetry Suite Collection, but of course, you can use them with many projects.

This Lovely & Beautiful Designer Series Paper is currently unavailable but is expected back in stock the week of April 6. Hopefully, you already have it, and if you don’t, I’d suggest ordering it because it is truly “Lovely & Beautiful”! Fill out your email in the Online Store to be notified when it comes in so you don’t miss out. Sometimes things come back in stock earlier than expected.

Blueberry Bushel Square Snippets Hello Card

Leave a reply

This Blueberry Bushel Square Snippets Hello Card is a pretty easy card to make. What is really fun is cutting apart the squares of different patterns that make up each sheet of paper in the Square Snippets Designer Series Paper. These papers are made up of 3″ and 4″ squares. You might want to cut at least one sheet of each kind with individual squares to play with and use, and keep other pages together in case you come up with other projects you want to use the squares differently on.

This card has a Blueberry Bushel cardstock base. I sorted through my Square Snippets papers and already cut out squares and choose these two squares. I love this one with the little white flowers. These squares are 3″ x 3, so I cut Basic White layers of 3 1/4″ x 3 1/4″ for layers. I think it helps the papers stand out better. You could make the layers slightly smaller, like 3 1/8″ x 3 1/8″, if you want a smaller white margin.

To decorate the card and squares, I chose the Covered In Flowers Accents with which to choose a flower for an accent that went with the little white flowers on the paper. This one and the leaf fit the bill. These accents are currently unavailable, but you can sign up with your email to be notified when they are back in stock, then order them right away.

These white paperboard precut designs are slightly thicker and sturdier than you might expect, and they are ready to use. You can color them with any coloring tools, such as watercolor pencils, Stampin’ Blends, ink, whatever you like. Or just leave them plain as I did. One side is white, and the other is slightly off-white. You can use these for cards or scrapbooking, of course. They are something different and easy to use. Just use teeny tiny drops of glue on the delicate parts.

The greeting is stamped on a narrow scrap of Basic White with Blueberry Bushel ink. I used the “hello” in the Fabulous Sayings Stamp Set. This was a Product of the Month, but has sold out as of late February 2026. You can use whatever sentiment suits your card and occasion. For a little embellishment, I used the Iridescent Foil Gems. These are some of my favorite gems because they go with most everything.

If you use this Square Snippets Designer Series Paper you will have unlimited designs you can make with these squares or multiple squares, or maybe even a whole sheet for scrapbooking. Check out this other design I made using three of the squares!
