Many New Stampin’ Up! Products Today! Spring Mini, Online Exclusives, Kits, Bonus Days & More!

Spring Mini Catalog Cover 2026

Today is one of those days we stampers, papercrafters, and scrapbookers love with SO many brand-new Stampin’ Up! products going LIVE! We have a new Stampin’ Up! January – April 2026 Spring Mini Catalog, three new Kits in the Kits Collection, new Online Exclusives, a new Product of the Month, AND it’s BONUS DAYS! It’s like Christmas all over again except it’s all for us!

Bonus Days 2026 Ad info

Before you start shopping, though, let me tell you about Bonus Days! From Jan. 6 – Feb. 2, with each order of $50 or more you earn a $5 coupon code that will be emailed to you soon after you place your order. If your order has multiples of $50 (such as $100 or $150) (before shipping, tax, and after any Rewards are applied), you will earn a coupon code for each $50 increment. You will receive one email with two, three, or however many coupon codes. With each $50 order, you will receive an email with one coupon code.

It is up to YOU to save these coupon codes. I suggest printing out the email(s) so you have a hard copy in case anything happens to your computer or email. Then during the redemption period in February, you will enter the coupon code(s) you earned on your order. We can talk about that part later. So as you shop, think about $50 increments in a large order or reaching $50 in one order. Then save those coupon code emails!

The Spring Mini Catalog (as I like to call it!) is filled with beautiful. new colors and designs for Valentine’s Day, Easter, florals, and all kinds of things. It’s always a refreshing change after all the holidays we have been crafting for during the past three months!

Here are the links you need if you don’t have a copy of the catalog in your hands.

POM Fabulous Sayings Stamp Set Jan 2026

New Product of the Month

The Product of the Month is a new special promotion Stampin’ Up! started last month in December. The Product of the Month items are specially designed to be some of the best items Stampin’ Up! has to offer that aren’t available in any of our catalogs or our Online Exclusives. Every month they will release a new item that is only available for purchase once per account. These items will be limited quantity and are likely to sell out quickly—once they’re sold out, they’re gone for good! Spend $75 and purchase the Product of the Month (POM) for only $5.00!

The January 2026 Product of the Month is this Fabulous Sayings Stamp Set! Looks like a good one to have to me! We always want more sentiments to use! Or while it is still available, you could choose the December POM, the True Blue Florals Designer Series Paper instead if you don’t already have it.

I hope you enjoy all these fun new products! It makes a long blog post but it sure is fun to have so many new Stampin’ Up! products to dream about owning!

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!

Floral Impressions Yellow Flowers Thank You Card

Floral Impressions Yellow Flowers Thank You Card

Sometimes you can use one of your own older cards as inspiration for a new one, like this Floral Impressions Yellow Flowers Thank You Card! Everyday in my email I get a few photos from “Memories of this Day”. The other day, one of the “memories” was a card I made like this one and I thought I should try that idea again! After all, we often hate NOT using the other side of the paper when we are using one side! This was a way to show off both sides at once!

This is the Floral Impressions Designer Series Paper. I have a difficult time not getting it mixed up with all the other floral paper we have! This one is not in the catalog. It was released in May 2025 as one of the Online Exclusives. This month of August you can buy it on sale 15% during the In Colors Sale because some of the coordinating colors are In Colors 2025-2027!

The card base is Crushed Curry with a layer of Pecan Pie. At first I was going to adhere the designer paper rectangles directly on to the card base but I wanted to add a little brown that was in the flowers so I used Pecan Pie as a layer. The designer paper pieces are cut at 1 7/8″ x 2 1/12″. I did glue them down first on a piece of Pecan Pie cardstock cut at 3 3/4″ x 5″ which is what a second layer on the card base would be sized at. Because I glued them down on another piece of cardstock first, I was able to trim off a smidgeon from each side to make sure everything was perfectly aligned. You can vary the sizes of any of these things depending on how you want your card to look.

The greeting is stamped on Basic White in Garden Green ink and is in the Bright Borders Stamp Set. Then use the To the Point Label Punch to cut the stamped leafy image and sentiment. The stamp set is on the Last Chance list and is marked down 10%. It’s a pretty nice stamp set to have along with the punch for a lot of kinds of cards and projects. To help the greeting stand out, I punched out two pieces of Garden Green with the same punch and cut each one in half to adhere behind the top, bottom, and sides of the white piece. This is a good trick to know when you want something layered behind something for which there is not larger punch.

The greeting is popped up on Stampin’ Dimensionals in approximately the center of the card. For a little something to add, I chose this Garden Green twine in the Natural Tones Linen Thread (retired). I cut two pieces the same length and tied them together into a bow to make it a little thicker. The bow is stuck on with a Mini Glue Dot.

All in all, this is an easy card to make and a great way to use your designer series paper. You can show off both sides! Make squares if you like in a smaller configuration. Anything is possible!

Heart Shaped Thank You Card

Heart Shaped Thank You Card

Here’s a new card for 2025 and one using a new product! This Heart Shaped Thank You Card is an easy one to make with just stamping and a little scissor-work! My diecutting products are still put out of the way for Christmas so I didn’t want to pull those things back out just to make a card at the time. So it was back to “just stamping” which often feels good to do, like back in the day when we didn’t have a die-cutting machine and dies and embossing folders. Keep it simple.

The card base is Real Red with a layer of Basic White just to set off the designer paper a little. The patterned paper is the Marbled Elegance Specialty Designer Series Paper which is in the Marbled Elegance Suite. This was a new Online Exclusive back in early November when most of us weren’t interested yet in something that would work for Valentine’s Day, not that it can only be used for Valentine’s Day as you can see, but we were into the Christmas holidays.

The stamp set I used is the Heart Shaped Stamp Set, a freebie in the Sale-A-Bration Brochure. It is actually part of a Bundle that you can get FREE during Sale-A-Bration with a $120 purchase beginning January 7th. That is only days away now!! While mostly you get a single product with every $60 purchase during Sale-A-Bration, Stampin’ Up! always includes a couple of bundles or combination of products that you can earn free with a larger purchase. I really liked the stamp set since it CAN be used for Valentines but also lots of other occasions, even just to say “Hello”. The Sale-A-Bration Bundle also comes with a set of dies, but as I said, since my Stampin’ Cut & Emboss Machine is put away right now, I only used the stamps.

I did copy a sample in the Sale-A-Bration brochure for this bundle but I used different designer paper in the background and I only stamped the heart, I didn’t use a diecut shape. That’s how you can use the samples in catalogs to get ideas but still put your own spin on it if you like. The heart is stamped with Garden Green ink on Basic White. The little flowers are stamped in Real Red and I just cut those out with my Paper Snips. A little tedious when I could have used a die but that’s what I wanted to do in the moment. The greeting is in the stamp set and is stamped in Real Red ink on a narrow scrap of paper that I still trimmed down to be very narrow and short with my Paper Trimmer. I flagged the ends of the greeting and popped it up on Stampin’ Dimensionals.

The white banner piece is cut first at 2 3/4″ x 3 1/2″. Your measurements can vary. I just tried to get a size that didn’t take up too much space on the card, so it is basically the width of the wreath with a little margin on each side. At the bottom I put a tiny pencil mark at the center, which was about 1 3/8″ and maybe about 3/4″ down from each side. Then I just used a scissors to cut a diagonal from each side. Or after you cut one diagonal piece on one side you can flip it over and put it in the corner of the other side and use that as your cutting guide to get the same size. The whole banner is popped up on Stampin’ Dimensionals also.

While you could “fancy up” this card a little bit with some ribbon or gems, I opted to leave it simple. You wouldn’t even have to cut the banner shape at the bottom. Just cut a square or rectangular shape or use a diecut.

When January 7th arrives and Sale-A-Bration and the new January-April 2025 Spring MIni Catalog go live, if you spend at least $120 be sure to check out the Bundles you can choose on pages 12 and 14 of the Sale-a-Bration brochure. But you can also choose the individual products with each $60 purchase so for $120 you can choose two products rather than one bundle. Yes, the qualifying order did rise to $60 this year instead of $50 as in the past, but the past has been “forever” so maybe it was time to raise the dollar amount a little bit.

I hope you enjoyed this first card of the New Year. There will be lots more to come in 2025!

New Stampin’ Up! Products! Irresistible Blooms Hello Card

Stampin’ Up! has added some new products today to keep things fresh and fun! These will be called Online Exclusives and will not be in any catalog. And there’s no end date for the sales period! Some products will be reordered when inventory is low, and others will only be available while supplies last. This way Stampin’ Up! can offer even more new products throughout the year. New products mean new inspiration and new ways to express your creativity!

My Irresistible Blooms Hello Card is made with new things!! Well, and one old thing that apparently is going to be new again! If you have been around Stampin’ Up! for a while, do you recognize the cardstock I used? It is Lost Lagoon, one of the 2014-2016 In Colors! When I saw that was one of the coordinating colors with the new designer paper in the Online Exclusives, I dug around in my stash and found a package! Pretty Peacock is another returning color, apparently, but I haven’t found that yet! Hopefully, I still have the ink pads and reinkers somewhere, but who knows?

Back to this card…it was made with the new Hello, Irresistible Suite Collection. Yes, it is more flowers, but it is a really pretty collection! You can stamp, you can die cut, or you can cut out! Whatever you like! Some of the dies work on some of the designer paper patterns as well as the stamped images and that’s always an advantage when you can die-cut designer paper.

The card has a Lost Lagoon cardstock card base with a layer of the new Hello, Irresistible 6″ x 6″ Designer Series Paper. I like the criss-cross design on this paper and the other side is a watercolor wash. I used “the other side” for a strip across the lower middle of the card because I couldn’t resist using it! The flowers are all die cut from the designer paper as are the leaves. The flowers have the look of “emboss resist” without the work. I die cut several leaves and just stuck them around the flowers. One pink flower and one yellow flower are popped up on Stampin’ Dimensionals and the third is flat on the card.

The greeting is stamped with the Irresistible Blooms Stamp Set. You can purchase the Irresistible Blooms Dies along with the stamp set in the Irresistible Blooms Bundle and save 10% if you want both. For some bling, I added three of the Loose Frosted Dots. These come in three colors and three sizes. They do not have adhesive on the back which is a little inconvenient but you can work around that. On the larger size, you can place the Frosted Dot on a Glue Dot right on the roll. Then take it off and adhere it where you want it. For the smaller sizes, you could put a teeny tiny drop of glue where you want the dot to go on the paper and place the dot on the glue using the Take Your Pick Tool (if I could find mine!). Don’t try to apply the glue to the dot. Or you could try rolling a Glue Dot into a tiny ball and use that for adhesive. Whatever works for you! The Loose Frosted Dots are pretty and will be fun to use.

On the inside of the card, I adhered a piece of Basic White cardstock since the Lost Lagoon cardstock is rather dark for a message or stamped greeting. I added another diecut flower and leaf in the corner. You could also, or instead, use a narrow strip of designer paper to match on the inside. Make the inside fun, too!

Demonstrators were able to preorder some of these Online Exclusive products, but there are even more new products available today! I urge you, for anything you really really want, to order it early. Some products in the Online Exclusives may go on backorder and be re-supplied, some may be gone for good, some may last forever. We won’t know, so when you see something you want, order it!

Have fun checking out the new Stampin’ Up! products!

These new products (and more!) will be “Online Exclusives” meaning that they will not appear in a catalog but you can view them and order them in the Online Store, while supplies last!

This Hello, Irresistible 6″ x 6″ Designer Series Paper made me think of making a slimline card. It just seemed like the floral pattern would fit nicely on a card made 3 1/4″ x 6 1/4″. I chose that exact size because it would fit in a regular envelope.

The card base is Basic White Cardstock cut at 6 1/2″ x 6 1/4″ and scored in half at 3 1/4″ to make the card. The designer paper is cut at 6″ x 3″. I added a layer of Flirty Flamingo on top of the card base. It is cut just a bit narrower than the card base at 3 1/8″x 6 1/8″. I think it helps to add to the beauty of the designer paper. I love this pattern of paper which looks like the flowers are all stamped or embossed in white.

The greeting is in the Irresistible Blooms Stamp Set. I stamped it in Flirty Flamingo Ink and die cut with one of the Stitched Rectangle Dies. I first thought I would put it up near the top of the card, but then I didn’t like it in that position so I moved it to the bottom over some White 1/4″ Crinkled Seam Binding Ribbon. It is popped up on Stampin’ Dimensionals. Normally I would put the bow at the bottom of the greeting, but in this case, it covered up the greeting and I just kind of liked placing it at the top for a change! I also added a few Iridescent Rhinestone Basic Jewels for a little sparkle to the card.

One interesting thing about this designer series paper is the coordinating colors. Two of them are Lost Lagoon and Pretty Peacock! If you have been around Stampin’ Up! for a while you might remember those colors. Pull them out of your stash if you have the cardstock and ink! Also on March 1st something is going to be announced about colors! So stay tuned!
