Stampin’ Up! Video of January New Releases

I don’t know how I missed this video made by Stampin’ Up! showing and discussing the new product releases in January, but I did discover it last night! It’s a very long video, so it’s good for watching on a cold, maybe snowy Sunday afternoon! Or any day! It’s done very well with Sara Douglass (CEO of Stampin’ Up!) and Cindy Schuster (Stampin’ Up! Concept Artist and Stampin’ Up! Demonstrator). They show the new products very well, along with samples, at a good pace, since there are so many new things! I’m sure you will get a good view of the new things with this recording and enjoy seeing everything, even if you already have some of it!

(There is a countdown at the beginning since it was a Facebook Live so just move the cursor ahead until the video actually starts!)

Made With Love Hugs & Kisses Valentine Card

Made With Love Hugs & Kisses Valentine. Card

I was so happy with the way this Made With Love Hugs & Kisses Valentine Card turned out, even without a clear idea of what I would make and with so many choices of pretty papers and combinations of those papers! Get the Made With Love Designer Series Paper and the Endless Love Stamp Set, and you are set for making many valentines!

The Made With Love Designer Series Paper is chock-full of hearts in different sizes and colors, X’s and O’s, love arrows, and then the more generic sheets that coordinate with the Valentine sheets but will also be good to use on other kinds of cards. The beautiful colors are Bubble Bath, Flirty Flamingo, Poppy Parade, Real Red, and Strawberry Slush. You will find this paper, stamp set, and all the extras in the Made With Love Suite Collection in the Stampin’ Up! January-April 2026 Mini Catalog on pages 30-33.

If you would like a sticker sheet to coordinate with the Made With Love Paper for scrapbooking or even cards and other projects, check out the Made With Love Designer Series Paper & Sticker Sheet on page 59 of the Mini Catalog. These Sticker Sheets we have had recently at Stampin’ Up! are really fun to use and quick and easy in some cases, too!

For this card, I used Real Red cardstock for the card base. I cut the top layer of designer paper with the small hearts at the usual size 4″ x 5 1/4″, although you could make it a little shorter if you wanted to save a strip of paper, as long as the bottom paper would overlap a little bit. The bottom piece of polka dots is cut at 5 1/4″ x 1 1/2″. Adhere those two papers together before adhering to the card so you can wrap the ribbon around over the seam first. Any time I put ribbon on a card like this, I just extend the ribbon about an inch or less around to the back or the paper on each side, not all the way around. It saves a couple inches of ribbon on each card! Put a little Stampin’ Seal on the back to hold the ribbon. After you have the ribbon attached, adhere the designer paper to the card base. The ribbon I used is the Strawberry Slush 3/8″ Faux Linen Ribbon, which is in the Stampin’ Up! Annual Catalog 2025-2026.

To decorate this card I used three hearts. Two are stamped with the Endless Love Stamp Set. The striped heart is stamped in Strawberry Slush ink (although it looks close to Real Red!) and the open heart is stamped in Real Red, both on Basic White cardstock. I just fussy-cut these by hand. We’ve all cut out hundreds of hearts by hand since childhood, haven’t we??! The Strawberry Slush cardstock heart is just punched out with a heart punch (retired) that I have. I believe it’s the one that came with a scalloped-edge heart punch in the set. I found this heart punch was practically the same size as the stamped hearts so I thought it worked fine. However, there are the Endless Love Dies you can purchase along with the stamp set in a Bundle if you would like dies. Hearts, whether dies or punches, are always useful for your stash! I played around with the placement of the three hearts before settling on this design. The white heart is popped up on Stampin’ Dimensionals.

I used the words in the Endless Love Stamp Set in Strawberry Slush ink on Basic White for the greeting on the card. After stamping them first, I cut them into narrow strips with one end flagged like a banner. The top one is popped up on Dimensionals. The bottom one is adhered with a little Stampin’ Seal on the white heart with a Dimensional under the banner end to be even with the white heart.

Finally, I tied a bow and adhered it to the ribbon on the front of the card with MIni Glue Dots. I thought about adding some gems or jewels, but it was late and I couldn’t even think which ones would go with the card! And, actually, I thought the card looked fine without any bling. There already is a lot going on with the busy hearts paper, the three paper hearts, and ribbon!

Start making some Valentines now so you won’t be rushed when the calendar turns to February, especially if you are going to be mailing some cards!

And on the inside, on a piece of Basic White cardstock, I used the three stamps in the Endless Love Stamp Set, “Happy”, “Valentine’s” and “Day” to stamp the greeting in Strawberry Slush ink. You could also add a scrap strip of one of the designer papers to the bottom. Then you are set to write a little Valentine message or simply sign your card!

New Stampin’ Up! Products Coming Your Way in 2026!

Spring Mini Catalog Cover 2026

And not just the January-April 2026 Spring Mini Catalog will be available, but also new January Online Exclusives beginning January 6th! PLUS a new Product of the Month and three new Kits in the Kits Collection! Now that’s a day worth circling in red on your calendar! It’s all coming in the New Year on January 6th! At the same time, the Holiday Mini Catalog will end on January 5th, but now we have this new system of some carryover products being shown in the Online Exclusives and retiring products going in the Last Chance Category. I think I have that right, anyway!

Here are some sneak peeks of the new Mini Catalog and Online Exclusives products that I ordered before Christmas and barely got to look at until now.

Spring Stamp Sets and Dies

These stamp sets are all in the new Spring Mini except for the Lovely Arrangements Stamp Set is an Online Exclusive in the Lovely Blossoms Suite Collection. The Easter Basket Dies (part of the Easter Basket Bundle which includes the stamp set and dies) is next to the stamp set and says “Stampin’ Cut & Emboss” at the top with the name of the dies in tiny print above the images. Remember, these are all in the new packaging of the plastic sleeves rather than the cases for the stamp sets so if you want to, you can slide the dies in with the stamp set. I haven’t thought about yet how I will organize these sets with the new packaging.

Spring Stamp Sets and Dies

Three new Spring Mini ephemera packs, the bottom one being vellum with gold foil. I have been loving using the ephemera packs for “quick and easy” cardmaking or other projects!

New Designer Series Papers

I didn’t open the packages, but here are the new designer series papers I ordered! Some floral, some Valentine’s, some Easter, and BUGS! Living in Houston, I’m not one to make any cards with bugs on them because we see too many of the real creatures in our daily lives living here in the tropics! But this Cute As A Bug Suite Collection is pretty cute so I did get some bug stamps and bug paper! However, the Cute As A Bug paper isn’t all bugs – it has strawberries and mushrooms on separate sheets as well so I can tolerate that! But these bugs are CUTE!

Spring Embellishments

Some new ribbon and embellishments for all our fun projects!

POM True Blue Florals2

POM True Blue Florals1

The Product of the Month for December, True Blue Florals Designer Series Paper, is still available as I write this and can be purchased with a minimum order, after any Rewards or coupons, of $75. When the January POM comes out, if the December POM is still available, you can choose either one with your $75 order. One to a customer.

Pastels Shimmer Paper

Beautiful Pastels Shimmer 12″ x 12″ Specialty Paper, perfect for springtime and Easter cards and projects! The colors are Bubble Bath, Lemon Lolly, and Pool Party.

Mixed Up Patterns1

Mixed Up Patterns2

The two photos above show both sides of the new Mixed Up Patterns 12″ x 12″ Designer Series Paper. This paper coordinates with Suites and products in the new Spring Mini.

Love Notes 6_ x 6_ Designer Series Paper

If Christmas is over, Valentine’s Day is not far behind! This cute Love Notes 6″ x 6″ Designer Series Paper in the Spring Mini is much like other paper we have had with cut-apart smaller images to use as parts of your cards or other projects and scrapbook pages. But other sheets are regular 6″ x 6″ designer series paper so you get both in one pack!

Covered In Flowers Accents Sheet

This may be a little difficult to see, but it is one sheet of diecut flowers and foliage. This is the Covered In Flowers Accents. The whole sheet is white so you can use as is or color the pieces as you see fit. It is called “paperboard” and is thicker than designer series paper. I used it on a card my newsletter subscribers will see tomorrow (so sign up in the red box if you want to receive my newsletters on Tuesdays!) and I liked using the flower very much. They are diecut so you just poke out the pieces you want. For that card I just left my flower as is. Another time I will try coloring and see how it turns out. The only thing is, as I said, it is just one sheet, so you may want multiples.

So this gives you a little peek into what is coming next week, January 6th, in the new Spring Mini and the Online Exclusives for January. Plus there will be three new Kits in the Kits Collection and new Product of the Month (POM). Always remember to check the Last Chance list as well before you place your order and try to find a bargain!

Here’s My Stamp Lamp!

Stamp Lamp full view

Many, many years ago I went to a Stampin’ Up! convention in Salt Lake City and we got to take a side trip to Riverton, UT to see the Stampin’ Up! home office. It was great to tour the home office and see the shipping area. In the first part of the tour, there were different displays, the history of Stampin’ Up!, decorative things, I don’t remember what all. But one idea I saw was this lamp with a clear base filled with stamps! Back then we probably only had the wood-mount stamps. Just like many creative ideas I see, I HAD to have a lamp like that filled with stamps.

Eventually I found this lamp, probably on Amazon, maybe it was even before Amazon! Anyway, I bought the lamp and then, like many things, for all these years, any minute now I was going to put the stamps in it. FINALLY FINALLY the other day as I was sorting through my very old wood-mount stamps, I selected some stamps that I thought would look good inside this lamp. I thought I would just toss them inside the lamp. But it was the bottom of the lamp that was removable AND there is a rod through the middle holding the cord going to the light bulb. So there wasn’t a big open space inside the lamp base and I had to reconsider which stamps would really fit inside. It was NOT an easy job trying to fit the wood blocks inside in a curved container, keeping the center rod straight, and trying to keep the wood blocks where I was putting them! But I did get the lamp filled and arranged pretty well! I only have one boo-boo. Do you see where it is? I had to save the rest of the stamps in their cases and remember that those are the sets where the missing stamps are in the lamp.

So after all these years, here are photos of my stamp lamp with these stamps artfully (?) arranged inside as best I could! I do like it and it’s perfect in the room with all my craft stuff and retired stamp sets, paper, etc.

Stamp Lamp 2

Stamp Lamp 2

Stamp Lamp 6

And yes, you can buy a lamp like this one on Amazon! Just search for something like “clear glass base table lamp fillable”. I’ve seen people fill lamps like this with seashells, so you can certainly fill one with stamps!! Maybe I should buy another one and fill it with markers for a very colorful lamp!! Or all my leftover ribbon or embellishments! So many possibilities! LOL!

Traditions of Christmas Bouquet Card

Traditions of Christmas Bouquet Card

Can you believe four months from today is Christmas? I thought it only appropriate that I make my first Christmas card of the season, Traditions of Christmas Bouquet Card, for my blog post today! My box of Holiday Mini Catalog preorder goodies arrived just the other day so it was time to make a Christmas card. The Holiday Mini Catalog goes live on Wednesday, September 3, 2025 so you only have about another week to wait!

When you get to see the September – December 2025 Mini Catalog online or in person, if you like traditional Christmas colors and designs, you will probably gravitate toward the Traditions of Christmas Suite Collection! I can’t link to it yet, but it is beautiful! It is a very large Suite, so you can buy it ALL with just one number on your order, or you can pick and choose which products you want and still make beautiful cards even if you don’t have everything!

This card, of course, doesn’t do the whole Suite justice, but it does give you an idea of how pretty the designer series paper will be! I got the idea for this card from the Mini Catalog on page 24 but changed it up a little bit. The paper I used is the Traditions of Christmas Specialty Designer Series Paper. It is called “Specialty” because it has gold foil accents. The paper is made up of poinsettias and other Christmas flowers plus generic patterns on “the other sides” of the pretty floral papers. And one surprising, but fun color, in the package is the new In Color, Secret Sea! You wouldn’t think that deep blue color would be for Christmas cards in these traditional red and green colors, but it really is stunning.

The card base is Real Red with a layer of this Olive Green striped and dotted paper. The “other side” has the pretty flowers that I used for the focal point of the card. The bouquet may be able to be cut with a die in the Christmas Greenery Dies in the Suite or you can stamp a bouquet just like this one and color and cut out. My bouquet is fussy-cut so I’m not positive if the die fits it, but I think it might. The Basic White background is cut at 3″ x 4″ with a Real Red layer of 3 1/4″ x 4 1/4″. There are many bouquets on that designer paper page with flowers of varying colors. The bouquet is popped up on Stampin’ Dimensionals on this card, then a greeting is placed across the stems

The greeting in the catalog sample is stamped and gold embossed, but for my card I chose a greeting in the Greetings For You Ephemera Pack. It is on page 15 up at the top of the Mini Catalog. The greetings are all in gold foil and are diecut and adhesive-backed! Just peel off the release paper on the back and stick the greeting to your card or project. I adhered mine to a strip of Old Olive cardstock to help it stand out and flagged the ends. You may barely notice a strip of Gold Foil 4″ x 3/4″ going across the card under the popped up center piece but lined up underneath the greeting. The gold foil is glued flat on the card. The greeting is glued flat where it intersects the bouquet, but it’s probably a good idea to add a Dimensional on each end of the greeting to make it sturdier going across the popped up bouquet.

For some embellishment and sparkle, I added three of the gold Traditional Sparkling Sequins. You will want these for sure for your holiday projects. They look like gems but are nearly flat so will be good for mailing. They come in three different sizes in Real Red, Old Olive, Pool Party, and gold.

This beautiful Traditions Of Christmas Specialty Designer Series Paper will be wonderful for scrapbook pages and other projects, even giftwrap, not just for cards! Although you don’t have your new holiday products today, just for fun, to celebrate 4 months until Christmas, get out some paper from your stash and make a Christmas card! And mark your calendar for September 3 when there will be the new September-December Mini Catalog (Holiday Mini!), new Kits in the Kits Collection, and new Online Exclusives!

Spotlight On Nature In Colors Hello Card

Spotlight On Nature In Colors Hello Card

I wouldn’t have predicted that I would come up with this Spotlight On Nature In Colors Hello Card when I wanted to highlight the Stampin’ Up! 2025-2027 In Colors, but here it is! I planned to use one diecut circle for each color scattered around on a card, probably using the Stylish Shapes Dies, but once I spotted the Spotlight on Nature Dies, I decided to use those instead! These dies have such interesting designs around the edges and lots of sizes so it was a no-brainer.

The card starts with just a Basic White card base although you could use something else, probably or piece of designer series paper. From there I just got out my assorted package of In Colors and used smaller pieces or half sheets to cut out a bunch of these circles. As long as I was diecutting, I may as well put several different dies on each piece of cardstock. I knew I could save any extras to use on another card or project. I like having the package of assorted In Colors, at least to start, so I can try out all the In Colors and then, the ones I really like, I can buy in individual packages. But to start with, I get all the colors in an assortment, and probably buying two assorted packages is a good idea! Then you have plenty of cardstock for awhile.

I could have predicted that to make this card, if I knew ahead of time what I would ultimately make, that I would take a long time to decide on colors and placement of all the circles. I originally thought I would only do one circle of each color on the card, but then I began layering. Somehow the pattern I originally laid out pretty much looked good and with just a few tweaks, I stuck with it! If you are working on something like this, and have it all laid out, but now you have to take it apart to glue it together, be sure to take a picture with your camera on your phone first and then you have that photo to refer back to! It sure is helpful to do that, if you think of it!

These are the 2025-2027 In Colors and I really like them. The colors are Secret Sea (the very dark blue), Cloud Cover (the lighter blue), Timid Tiger (the orange color), Darling Duckling (yellow) and Strawberry Slush (the vibrant pink). They all come in regular size cardstock, 12″ x 12″ cardstock, Stampin’ Blends, ink pads (except for Cloud Cover which just didn’t make the high quality standard but you can use the ink refill and make your own pad with a Stampin’ Spot!), Stampin’ Write Markers, and find these colors in designer papers. These are the on-trend colors for this year and next!

Back to my card! I could have popped up some of these circles, but they are all adhered flat to the card. I found the “Hello” greeting in the Saying Something Ephemera Pack. Of course, I stamp a lot of greetings for cards, but I also find it fun and time-saving to find an appropriate greeting in one of our many ephemera packs that we have in this catalog! To complete the card, I added the 2025-2027 In Color Flat Pearls. These are pretty and also fairly flat which is always good for mailing. I chose one of each color to put randomly on the card, in different sizes.
