I created this card from the set, Hey, Girl, page 45 of the New AC. This is the cutest set. There is even a little scottie dog that I can’t wait to make a card with. I needed a birthday card last week so I whipped this up. I used the Subtles DSP stack for the background and used our new Whisper White Thick card stock for the card base. I am in love with that CS and have already gone through 2 packages. You can find that on page 149.
I created this card with the gorgeous stamp set, Watercolor Wings, page 75. You can save 15% by purchasing the bundle of both the stamp set and the Framelit dies, bold Butterfly, page 172.
These dies and stamps can be coordinated with the set Butterfly Basics, page 124, and the dies, Butterfly Thinlits, also 172. This bundle was offered in the Spring Occasions catalog, and now is carried over to the new AC so if you didn’t get it then, you can still get it with 15% off on the bundle. The DSP is English Garden.

This set, Awesomely Artistic is going to be used a lot because it is so versatile. I again used a mono-chromatic style stamped on the DSP, Timeless Elegance, found on page 143 of the new catalog. This DSP is so beautiful I am tempted to hoard it. It really is perfectly named it is so elegant.
This is one of those stamps that I like to keep close by for when one of my friends or family member is not feeling well. I can whip it out in a jiffy. A card with this stamp will always bring a smile to the recipient. This is a single wood mounted stamp on page 23 of the new AC. We made this card at last month’s stamp camp. Hope you like it.
I love this new set of fruits and vegetables. It has been a long time since we had images like these and these are great because they already contain a sentiment. I embossed the background with our new Brick wall EF, page 174 and then highlighted the grout with the white gel pen found on page 163. I sponged it with Soft Suede. Colors I used on the image were Cucumber Crush and Watermelon Wonder. I used the oval collection framelits, page 173, to cut out the brick wall.
When the little red box arrives, it’s a happy day for sure! And, when the June Paper Pumpkin kit landed in mailboxes across the United States and Canada, we know our subscribers were thinking happy thoughts!
The two adorable cards in the kit were designed with feminine and masculine details to help celebrate everyday accomplishments—for anyone.
Of course, we love the designed projects, but that never stops us from exploring additional creative possibilities.
You can always use the supplies from the kit to create your own projects. Our artist used the printed banners on a Kraft card base to create this card with a masculine style.
For this next project, our artist designed a stunning flower card with pops of pink and yellow watercoloring. It would be so easy to swap out colors to match a bridal/baby shower or birthday party.
One of the best things about Paper Pumpkin is that you can combine products from the kits with your favorite Stampin’ Up! products to create more projects! This show-stopping treat bag would make anyone think happy thoughts!
Our artist used these elements from the kit:
• Die-cut flower and leaves
• Woodcut banner (behind the flower—brilliant!)
• The green patterned envelope liner, repurposed as an embellishment
Then, added these elements:
• Gold Stampin’ Emboss Powder
• Gold Metallic Thread
• Gold 1/8″ Ribbon
• Mini Metallic Clothespin
• Very Vanilla Cardstock
With all the fun possibilities, it’s pretty obvious that you’ll want to order some extra supplies. Click here to get a refill. Better hurry—quantities are limited.
I think that this set Awesomely Artistic, page 125 in the new AC, has taken over as my fav. I used Tip Top Taupe and Early Espresso for a mono-chromatic look. The DSP is from the Neutral DSP Stack. A very Simple layout.
This little wren is so stinkin’ cute. I stamped him on Whisper White Card Stock and did the background in Pool Party. I also used the Pool Party from the Subtles DSP stack and Soft Suede for the card Base. I added the sequins to finish it off.
You are going to see a lot of this set, From Land to Sea, page 83 in the new AC. Because I live so close to the coast, I love using sea life on my cards. It feels like I am sending a bit of the ocean to the recipient and I can really relate to that. Here, I used water color paper and embossed the Jelly fish with white EP. I used the white gel pen to highlight the movement of water. I used one of our new stencils (Decorative masks) page 157 on the card base. Colors I used for water coloring the background was Bermuda Bay, Tempting Turquoise, Island Indigo and Night of Navy.

I used the New small greeting Thinlits, Page 172 in the new AC. I used the DSP Timeless Elegance. The colors are Cucumber Crush, Wild Wasbi and Mellow Mambo. The stamp set is from the hostess set, Floral Wings.
Hah! That sounds like it could be a new SU color. I took the large E Block and added Bermuda Bay and Marina Mist, spritzed with with water and stamped it on the Whisper White card stock to get a washed technique for the background. I then used white Stazon for the Bokeh technique with a round sponge dauber. I used Rich Razzelberry on the grapes and Mossy Meadow on the leaves.
The name of this set is An Open Heart and can be found on page 25 in the new AC. This is also the bird of South Carolina. The main reason I got this set. However, I do love the sentiments. The inside of this card is stamped, “So hard to find the Words.” Perfect for a sympathy card, depending on the sentiment you choose. I used an aqua painter with our classic inks to color the bird and the branch. I love this new corrugated paper for backing the main focal point.
I love this set and couldn’t wait to get it so I could play with it. Here I stamped it in Lost Lagoon and Tip Top Taupe. There are actually 3 pieces that make up this butterfly and so simple to put together. You can get this set as part of your hostess benefits if you have a workshop of $150 or a book party of $150. It is located on page 180 og the new AC.
I love, love, love this stamp set found on page 83. It is so awesome! It has the best images and so easy to create a card with. It can also be masculine as well as any occasion. You can use it with our set, By the Tide too.
I colored the background on Whisper White paper after masking the fish. I used the white gel pen to accent the water and the sentiment and banner is from Endless Thanks, page 14 of the AC. I finished off the card with DSP, English Garden, Night Of Navy Seam Binding and Blossom Elements, page 160. Contact me here if you need more information.
This set, Work of Art, carried over from last year and it is one of my favs. I used the Bitty Butterfly punch and cut out one each in Real Red, Pumpkin Pie, Daffodil Delight, Cucumber Crush and Pacific Point. The sentiment is from Endless Birthday Wishes, page 6. I used both Whisper White card stock, regular and heavy. Just love our new white heavy CS for card bases. It is the best!
This set can be found on page 45 of the new AC. It is so whimsical and stinkin’ cute! I love all the images. I used shimmery card stock and water washed the back ground with Island Indigo and Rich Razzleberry. The toads are colored with Mossy Meadow and Soft Suede with an aqua painter. I distressed the edges and used the new corrugated paper found on page 148. Hope you like it.

This stamp set can be found on page 86. I am so happy that SU decided to change around our Nature animals because I just love this set. I was getting a little tired of the noble Moose that they carried for so long. I especially love this Pointer. The next card I make with this beautiful animal I think I will incorporate the duck with it. I didn’t use watercolor paper on this, just our regular whisper white. I used pool party as the background with Crumb Cake and Sahara Sand for the pooch. The papers I used are Mossy Meadow, Mint Macaroon, Soft Suede and the DSP is English Garden, page 142. I also used our new Lots of Labels, page 173. They are so awesome!
Ashton loves Legos, so for his birthday he received a Lego-looking box containing money. It’s amazing what you can make with stamps, ink, paper and some simple scoring (to make a matchbox) and circle punches. And what do you think he’ll be buying with his birthday money? Legos, of course!
This set can be found on page 6 of the new AC. It is so versatile with all the different sentiments. Can be used for any type birthday or celebration for that matter. I used the new in-color Mint Macaron and the In-color DSP paper stack. This set was so popular and sold out so fast when it first came out. I am so glad they carried it over to the new catalog.
Y’all are going to love this new Butterfly set, Watercolor Wings, page 75 of the new AC. It has matching framelits, Bold Butterfly Framelits, that not only go with the set but also with the Butterfly Thinlits, both found on page 172 of the new AC. If that isn’t enough, they also coordinate with the set Butterfly Basics, page 124. My all time fav. What is so great about this set is you can get 15% discount by purchasing both the stamp set and the framelits together. On this card I used Calpyso Coral and Mint Macaron and the DSP is from Market Fresh.
I love this stamp set, Market Fresh, page 116 in the new AC. Here I used Elegant Eggplant and Cucumber crush. I colored it on watercolor paper with the aqua painter and did the background in Pool Party. The border was made with the stamp set, Tin of cards, page 110. The background is embossed with Boho Chic, page 174. I used the Dazzling Diamonds Glimmer paper, page 149, to outline the image. I would love to hear what you think.

The new annual catalog is out! Wooh!!! I don’t know about you, but my wish list is enormous. And our new (adorable) Designers Series Paper Stacks are my faves.
Check out these striped and floral patterns! For this project, I used Crushed Curry, Cucumber Crush, Pool Party, and Watermelon Wonder. It takes just a minute or two to make the fun little Designer Series Paper floral accents featured here using the Flower Medallion Punch (item # 137417). Just snip the petals to give them a little dimension, then adhere them to the tags using Stampin’ Dimensionals.
Do you love the adorable floral centers? They’re our new 2015–2017 In Color Blossom Accents (item # 138383)—1/2″ in diameter with 20 flowers per package and four each of five colors.
The stamp sets featured here are Friendly Wishes (item # 139579) and Sweet Stack(item # 138948).
Create the tag using the Ornate Tag Topper (item # 137416).
Love the new Watermelon Wonder 1″ Dotted Lace Trim; it’s item # 138425 in the new catalog.
The cute taffy paper used to make this card is included with the Cherry on Top Designer Series Paper Stack (item # 138443). Make the gift box with the Big Shot (item # 113439), the Fry Box Bigz L Die (item # 132966), the All about Sugar Stamp Set (item # 138684) and the Sprinkles on Top Stamp Set (item # 139569). I slipped the treat inside a Gusseted Cellophane Bag, item # 133770.
Just for fun, I made a necklace out of stamped doughnuts (see right side of picture). Just make a “sandwich” out of two punched doughnuts with a Stampin’ Dimensional in the middle, then adhere it to the soon-to-be-available-and-super-awesome Silver Metallic Thread (item # 138402). Add a balloon to this cute little ensemble and you have a bright and happy birthday gift for a friend!

I changed last week’s card around a little for my Friday night club. I used the set Guy Greetings, page 98 in the AC and topped it off with our new silver Metallic thread found on page 159. In addition, I used the new washi tape, Everyday Chic found on page 157.
This is going to be one of those hostess stamp sets that are going to be so popular. I know everyone will want to host a $150 book party or workshop just to be able to get this set. So easy to color. Here I used watercolor paper and fussy cut it out. I used our white gel pen to highlight. The colors I used are Blackberry Bliss and Mossy Meadow. The ribbon is so beautiful and makes the prettiest bow. It is also Blackberry Bliss and can be found on page 159 in the AC.
Here I used the new Tags and Labels Framelits, page 173, for the sentiment which comes from Endless Birthday Wishes, page 6. Background is Elegant Dots embossing folder.
This is one of the cards we will be making tonight at our Friday night Hostess club. I used the New Ronald McDonald set (last page of the new AC) called Sprinkles of Life. It has a matching punch and is called the tree builder punch, new this year and can be found on 167. I used the colors Chocolate Chip and Mint Macaron. In addition, I used the new Embossing Folder, Elegant Dots, page 174 for the sprinkles. Hope you like it!
This set is so cool! I love the little robot and the Lego Building blocks. I remember my children loved playing with them and building things, in fact, so did I. This is a great stamp set for children and it is not only for boys, because my children are girls and they loved them. You can find this set on page 40 of the new AC.
Can’t get enough of this Bohemian DSP. It is so cool! Here I used the Bohemian WAshi Tape to create the candles and used the Bird Builder wing from the punch for the flames. Backed it with the DSP. Colors are Bermuda Bay, Rich Razzleberry, and Delightful Dijon. Sentiment is from Boys will be Boys.
