Stampin' Up! Annual Catalog Cover 2025-2026

Here are a few more videos from Stampin’ Up! that you might enjoy! I love looking at these to see the new products showcased so well! Have you worn out your new Stampin’ Up! Annual Catalog yet from looking through it over and over again? I think every time I page through it I find something new. Besides the new catalog, we also have many products in the Online Exclusives. Even though it’s a little inconvenient to not have all our products in one catalog, the advantage is we don’t have to wait for the next catalog to get new products. Stampin’ Up! can release new Online Exclusives every two months for us! And rather than the Clearance Rack or even immediate Retirement Lists, we have the Last Chance List where products will stay while supplies last. Some are discounted and prices may be adjusted over time, but it’s nice to have those items still available longer even though they are “retiring”.

One of my favorite products, in recent catalogs, are the Ephemera Packs. This video showcases the newest cards & envelopes plus ephemera packs, all of the things you can Mix & Match!

Stampin’ Up! has recently returned to an emphasis on scrapbooking with lots of new products and kits. Of course, products for scrapbooking and cardmaking are almost always interchangeable, but it’s nice for scrapbookers to have more choices these days. I think the older we get and we look back at our own family and ancestors, the more we realize the importance of memory-keeping in whatever form it takes. Whether you make very detailed, exquisite pages for your photos in fantastic albums, or you make some easy pages decorated with photos and (very importantly) journaling! Someday somebody is going to look through these pages and be so happy that family events or even just images of our daily lives are recorded. Enjoy this video about specific scrapbooking products in the new Stampin’ Up! Annual Catalog.

And popular with a lot of people, who like to make things but don’t have as many supplies as many of us have, or just want to open a box and have a fun project to make, easy enough for anyone, even beginning crafters, are the Kits in the Kits Collection! Two or maybe sometimes three new Kits are released every month! Here are videos about the two Kits released in May 2025.

Enjoy the weekend by relaxing with your new Stampin’ Up! Annual Catalog whether you have a hard copy in your hands or like to browse online! If you missed a previous post with other videos of the new products, CLICK HERE to see them!

Stampin’ Up! At the Movies!

Please enjoy a few of the new videos from Stampin’ Up! about the great products in the new Stampin’ Up! 2025-2026 Annual Catalog!

I love watching these!

This video gives an overview of all the Suites in the new catalog. No need to put in each product number, just enter the one number for the whole suite. Or choose the products individually that you want right now (and come back later for the rest!).

Be sure to catch where some of the patterns in the Beautiful Gallery 6″ x 6″ Designer Series Paper come from! I always love hearing any “behind the scenes” information! And learn about the new Kinsugi paper!

Often it’s the final embellishments you add to a card that really makes it pop! Just that extra little spot of color or sparkle is what your card or project really needs!

If any of these products really “spoke” to you, be sure to order them as soon as possible to avoid any delays with backorders. I used to work with a teacher who said, in her little bit of a Southern accent say that her mother told her, “If it speaks to you, you must buy it!” All-righty then! I’ve remembered that for years and it works for shopping! 🙂 It’s my shopping motto everywhere!

Florals In Bloom All-Occasion Card

Florals In Bloom All-Occasion Card

In honor of the new Stampin’ Up! Annual 2025-2026 Catalog that went live yesterday (did you hear??!), I thought I would look through it for an idea for a card and I found it on page 45 of the catalog! This Florals In Bloom All-Occasion Card is what resulted from following the “technique” for this card described on page 45. There couldn’t be an easier idea to try and is a great way to show off both sides of our beautiful designer series paper!

If you look in the bottom section of page 45 in the Stampin’ Up! catalog, you’ll see this “technique” for showing off both sides of the designer series paper. Score and fold over one side of the designer series paper! Isn’t that the simplest technique you ever heard?! I don’t know what their measurements were but I’ll tell you what I did. I didn’t have the same greeting they used so I chose something else and added an extra piece of cardstock to show off the flowers a little better.

The card base is Strawberry Slush cardstock, which coordinates with the Florals In Bloom Designer Series Paper that I used. Not knowing what Stampin’ Up! used, I cut a piece of designer paper at 4 1/4″ x 5 1/2″. I scored at 1″ on the right side of the paper and folded that over which showed the opposite side of the bluish and peach-colored flowers on the front side of the paper. At that point, you can just center this piece on your card base. Since I had been playing with cardstock colors, I already had out Peach Pie cardstock so I cut a strip of that to put on the opposite side of the designer paper to bring out the Peach Pie flowers on the paper. This piece I cut out at 1″ x 5 1/2″ and adhered it to the left side of the designer paper. You can make that margin whatever width you want. I made it 1″ wide just because I didn’t know how much I wanted, but you can use a slimmer scrap piece of cardstock for this piece.

I didn’t do any complicated math for the measurements of this card, but you can if you want! Everything is just “eyeballed”. The strip of Peach Pie showing on the side of the designer paper is 1/4″ wide. When placing this piece of designer paper on the front of the card, there were 3/8″ margins on each side. The paper was as long as the card length so you do have to line it up carefully. If you are off by a little bit, just use the Paper Trimmer to shave off the bit of overhanging paper.

For the greeting I chose an already-stamped sentiment that I had saved from stamping and diecutting the entire stamp of greetings in the More Messages Stamp Set. You can ink up the entire stamp and get all the greetings stamped at once, then diecut with the one big die in the More Messages Die. You can buy both together in the More Messages Bundle in the May 2025 Online Exclusives. If you only want to stamp one message you can ink up the one sentiment on the stamp with a Stampin’ Write Marker or very carefully with an ink pad or Stampin’ Spot. If you stamp and diecut the entire stamp, just save the extra sentiments in a little plastic bag or in the stamp case. Makes it very handy when you want a greeting in a hurry! Mine happened to be stamped in Strawberry Slush ink so it was perfect!

For a little embellishment I cut two short pieces of the Summer Splash 3/8″ Ribbon, adhered them folded in half on the back of the greeting with Stampin’ Seal Adhesive, then popped up the whole greeting with Stampin’ Dimensionals. Then trim the ends of ribbon to even them up.

This is a very easy card and really fun to find this new way of using designer series paper to show off both sides without cutting two pieces! Be sure to check out lots of tips and tricks in the catalog as you page through, whether the hard copy or the digital version.

Here’s another card I made the other day with scraps of the Florals In Bloom Designer Series Paper that I think turned out nice!

Have fun shopping in the new Stampin’ Up! Catalog as well as newly added Online Exclusives!
