Inside Pop Up Slider Fun Fold Card with the Sweet Bugs Bundle

 Hi Friends!

This Inside Pop Up Slider Card is a fun fold I designed using the Cute As A Bug Suite, featuring the Sweet Bugs bundle. This interactive card has movement and layers, with a surprise pop-up element on the inside that makes it extra fun to open and share.

I walked through the entire design during my recent demonstration, showing how the fold is constructed, how the pieces fit together, and how the Sweet Bugs images and designer paper bring the card to life. This is a great fold to add to your fun fold collection, especially if you enjoy cards that have a little bit of wow without being complicated.

The video tutorial below goes over all the supplies and measurements needed for the card, along with tips to help you recreate the design step by step. You can watch the replay at your own pace and pause as needed while you craft along.

An Alaska Stampin’ Cruise Is Coming in May 2027

 Hi Friends!

I’m so excited to finally announce a very special creative adventure — an Alaska Stampin’ Cruise, happening in May 2027.

This will be a 7-night cruise round-trip from Vancouver, combining breathtaking Alaskan scenery with creativity, inspiration, and time together with fellow stampers. We’ll be cruising through the Inside Passage and visiting incredible destinations including Sitka, Juneau, and Ketchikan.

This cruise is designed for stampers who love to create, relax, and travel with like-minded friends. There will be dedicated creative time, stunning views, and plenty of opportunities to enjoy both the journey and the destinations along the way.

One of the things I love most about this cruise is that you don’t have to come alone. You’re welcome to bring your best crafting buddy, a friend who loves to travel, or your significant other who may prefer sightseeing, relaxing, or enjoying everything the ship has to offer while you craft. It’s the perfect way to share an unforgettable experience together — whether that means stamping side by side or meeting up after a day of adventure to swap stories.

Click the graphic below to download a copy of the poster ...

Cabins for this group sailing will be limited, and more details — including crafting plans and registration information — will be shared soon. For now, consider this your official invitation to start dreaming about a creative adventure to Alaska.

January Paper Pumpkin Special Delivery Alternative Card Ideas

 Hi Friends!

A few days ago, I spent some creative time exploring the January Paper Pumpkin kit, Special Delivery, and I’m excited to share the replay with you here on the blog. 

Rather than creating the projects as designed, I used the kit as a starting point and created alternative card ideas, letting the supplies and viewer suggestions guide the direction of each project.

Paper Pumpkin kits are such a great foundation for creativity, and this one was no exception. During the video tutorial below, I walk through the stamps, paper pieces, and embellishments included in the kit and show how they can be mixed, layered, and reimagined into fresh card designs. Even if you did not receive this particular kit, you’ll still find lots of ideas you can easily adapt using supplies you already have on hand.

The video tutorial below goes over all the supplies used and shows how each card came together step by step. I also share little design tips along the way that you can apply to other kits, card layouts, and stamping projects.

If you enjoy seeing alternative Paper Pumpkin ideas, creative problem solving, and projects inspired by community input, I think you’ll really enjoy watching the replay. Be sure to scroll down and watch the video, and if you’d like more cardmaking inspiration, tutorials, and creative ideas delivered straight to you, I’d love for you to subscribe to my blog so you don’t miss future projects.

Petals of Beauty Card Using Brushed With Beauty Designer Paper

Hi Friends

I recently went live on Facebook and YouTube to share this Petals of Beauty card, created using the Petals of Beauty bundle, the Words of Beauty bundle, and the Brushed With Beauty Designer Paper. This project is a great reminder of how powerful designer paper can be when you let it take center stage.

The soft florals, gentle colors, and layered details make this card feel elegant without being complicated. During the live demonstration, I shared tips for working with designer paper, layering elements for balance, and letting your patterned paper do most of the work.

The video tutorial below goes over all the supplies and measurements needed to create this card, so you can follow along step by step and easily recreate it in your own craft space.

If you missed the live demonstration, you can watch the replay below and see the card come together step by step. I hope it inspires you to pull out some favorite designer paper and give it the spotlight.

Brushed With Beauty Floral Card with Layered Die Cuts and Soft Vellum Accents

Hi Friends!

Today I have an elegant floral card created with the Brushed With Beauty Suite. I combined images from the Petals of Beauty and Words of Beauty bundles with Brushed With Beauty Designer Paper and Pearls of Beauty embellishments to create a card full of texture and gentle detail.

One of my favourite touches on this card is the layer of vellum tucked behind the die cut flowers. It softens the design, adds depth, and helps the florals stand out without overwhelming the background. This technique works beautifully with many floral designs and is easy to adapt to other projects.

Simply Beautiful Card in Bubble Bath and Soft Sea Foam with Elegant Layered Details

Hi Friends!

Today's card and demonstration features a soft and elegant handmade card created with the Simply Beautiful bundle and Beautifully Celebrated dies. I saw this card by Angela Meiritz-Reid and fell in love with it.

She chose the gentle colour combination of Bubble Bath and Soft Sea Foam to highlight the floral imagery and keep the overall look light, fresh, and timeless.

During the live, I walk through how this card comes together step by step, sharing colouring and layering tips and small design details that make a big difference in the finished project.

Nature’s Symphony Fun Fold Card Using Nature Walk Designer Paper

 Hi Friends!

One of the highlights of my January Catalogue Launch Party was this beautiful Make ’n Take fun fold card, and I’m so happy to share it with you here on the blog.

This project is all about combining texture, soft colour, and an easy fun fold layout that looks impressive but is very approachable to create. It’s the kind of card that feels special the moment it’s opened, making it perfect for sending encouragement, happy mail, or a thoughtful note just because.

For this design, I used the Nature’s Symphony dies along with the Nature Walk Designer Series Paper, and they truly shine together. The layered leaf die cuts add elegant dimension and movement, while the designer paper brings in calm, nature-inspired patterns that work beautifully for a wide variety of occasions.

This fun fold layout is especially satisfying to make because it allows the designer paper to take centre stage without overwhelming the card. The balance of texture, layers, and white space gives the finished project a polished look while still keeping the construction simple and enjoyable.

This card was featured as the Make ’n Take project during my Catalogue Launch Party, and it was a big hit. It’s a wonderful example of how versatile the Nature Walk Designer Series Paper can be and how easily the Nature’s Symphony dies can elevate a design with just a few well-placed elements.

Below, I’ll be adding the full measurements along with a complete step-by-step tutorial so you can recreate this card at home or adapt the layout using your own favourite stamps and papers. It’s a great fold to keep in your back pocket because it works equally well for cards, class projects, and even swaps.

If you decide to give this fun fold a try, I’d love to see what you create. This is one of those layouts that really comes to life when you put your own spin on it.

Stamps:  Greenery Lane and Peaceful Dock

Ink:  Pretty Peacock and Bubble Bath

Paper:  Lost Lagoon 11 x 4-1/4" cut at 1-1/4" on left side from bottom to score line.

            Basic White  5-1/4 x 4" (x 2 pieces), and 3/4 x 2" for the sentiment

            Pastel Shimmer (January online exclusives) 3 x 4

            Nature Walk DSP 1 x 5-1/4

Other:  Sparkle Dots Essentials, Stone & Vine embossing folder.

Here's the Launch Party Replay if you would like to see how this card came together (it's at the end of the video)..... the make 'n take is at the 1hr 34 1/2 minute mark.

Designer Paper Card Inspiration with Simple Layers With The Wildly Flowering Designer Paper

 Hi Friends!

Today’s card is a great example of how designer paper can do most of the work for you. By keeping the layers clean and the embellishments minimal, the patterned paper becomes the star of the card.

This is a wonderful approach when you want a card that feels special without being overly complicated. It’s also a great style for mass-producing cards while still keeping them beautiful.

I used a Misty Moonlight 8-1/2 x 5-1/2" card base.

Then I layered a 5-1/4 x 4" piece of Wildly Flowering DSP, then cut out a 3 x 4-1/2" panel of the same paper with the Textured Notes dies (#4 counted from the smallest), and finally a circle from Stylish Shapes dies (#4 counted from the smallest).  All were adhered using Stampin' Seal.

I die cut the sticks from the Inspiring Imperfections dies out of the Earthen Toned Metallics foil and adhered to the card front using Tombo glue.

Then I stamped the floral image from the Inspiring Imperfections stamp set in Misty Moonlight three times, die cut them and adhered 2 to the card front using dimensionals on just the top of the flowers.

I cut a 1 x 4 piece of Misty Moonlight to layer between the flowers, then added the last of the 3 stamped flowers using dimensionals.

The sentiment is stamped on a 1/2 x 4" piece of Basic White cardstock and stamped in Misty Moonlight.  The sentiment is from the same bundle.

The final touch is some Hues of Blue Flowers.

And, of course, I stamped and adhered a 5-1/4 x 4" piece of Basic White to the inside of the card. I never send out a naked inside or envelope, I just love how it's all balanced when you add just the simplest pieces.

I hope you enjoy this card, and that it inspires you to grab some pretty paper and create a card!

December Paper Pumpkin Watercolor In Bloom - Alternative Cards Demonstration

 Hi Friends!

Today’s video tutorial features the December Paper Pumpkin kit, Watercolor In Bloom. 

In this demonstration, I will be creating a selection of alternative card designs that show you how to stretch your kit further, make the most of the supplies inside, and customize the elements to suit your own cardmaking style. This particular kit includes watercolor imagery, customizable sentiment stamps, and floral accents that work beautifully for all-occasion projects.

If you are new to Paper Pumpkin, it is a monthly subscription crafting kit from Stampin’ Up! designed to make cardmaking simple, convenient, and creative. Each kit includes pre-cut supplies, coordinating embellishments, printed instructions, and an exclusive stamp set that you will not find anywhere else. Everything arrives ready to use, so all you need is your favorite adhesive and a quiet moment to create. These kits are perfect for both beginners and experienced stampers who enjoy quick crafting, learning new ideas, or building up a collection of versatile sentiment stamps.

During the video, I will walk you through alternative cardmaking ideas step by step and share tips for assembling your kit pieces, adapting layouts, and using both the patterned elements and stamp set in new ways. These alternatives are designed to help you look at your kit with fresh eyes and show just how adaptable Paper Pumpkin can be when you want something different than the original instructions.

You can watch the replay below and stamp along at your own pace. Feel free to pause, rewind, and recreate the projects exactly or switch out colours and elements based on what you have in your own craft space.

I hope these alternative ideas help you get even more value and inspiration from the December Watercolor In Bloom kit. If you create your own versions, I would love to see what you come up with in my Facebook Group.
