Stampin’ UP! Impressions Abloom Bundle with Floral In Bloom DSP

February 13, 2026

My team member Connie Matijak made this beauty during a combined Team Stamp, Cut, and Reveal event with my upline Linda Heller this month. I had the pleasure of stamping with Connie this week at my classes, and she showed me it in person. I just had to show you it! It’s just so stunning with the products she used.

I gave instructions to the team and they had to make the card with just my verbal directions (no visuals). It was so fun to see all the gorgeous cards everyone made using the Staircase technique. You can see my video HERE if you want to make one. Connie decided not to flip the stairs so it made a wonderful stepped image with the amazing Floral in Bloom Designer Series Paper.

Her inside was amazing with a sentiment from the Sutumn Expressions stamp set. See that wonderful glossy leaf on the front from the Greenery Lane Bundle- the NEW bundle with the Washi Tape.

A New Product of the Month is out for February!

I think this is a unique, fun DSP that will make

such vibrant cards or scrapbook pages!

It is indeed beautiful in person!!!

Stampin’ UP! Woolly Friends

February 11, 2026

Ready for some cuteness overload? This Stampin’ UP! Woolly Friends Punch Bundle is just soooo adorable! I made a Swing Card using it along with the fun, colorful Stampin’ UP! Easter Joy Specialty Designer Series Paper. The DSP is a bit heavier than DSP with a clear sheen to it. The back of it is matte with other fun designs.

It swings open to reveal your message…

I really like this oldie but goodie Swing Fun Fold. Once you make one, it’s quite simple to make. Check out my video:

  1. Start with a 5-1/2″ x 6-3/4″ Card Base.
  2. Place the 6-3/4” side at top of trimmer and line up at 5-1/2” on the left side and CUT from 1-1/4” to 4-1/4”.
  3. Turn the card base to the other side (still with 6-3/4″ at the top) and cut again as in step # 2.
  4. Place the 5-1/2” side at the top of the trimmer, line up at 4-1/4” and CUT from 1-1/4” to 2-3/4” AND again at 4” to 5-1/2”.
  5. Turn the card base to the other side (still with 5-1/2″ side at the top) and CUT again as in step #4.
  6. Place the 6-3/4” side at the top of the trimmer and line up at 2-3/4” on the left side and SCORE from 1-1/4” up off the edge of the card base and then again from 4-1/4” down off the edge of the card base.
  7. Slide card base over to the left and line up at the 4” mark and repeat the scoring as in step #6.

The DSP measurements: (4) 1″ x 2-1/2″ pieces on the four corners and (2) 1″ x 1″ pieces in the middle between the score lines. You can also put DSP on the back of the card if you wish:) The middle DSP or panel on back can be what you want to fit in a 3″ tall x 4-1/4″ wide space. I used a 3″ x 4″ piece.

It was hard to take photos of the card but I gave it a try. Close the card so it looks like this to begin decorating it- you use the right side of the middle panel for the front focal point.

Then when it opens up, the back (inside) is for a written message. You can make it a total white panel or use some DSP on it as I did. Whatever works for your needs.

Stampin’ UP! Sweet Bugs Bundle

February 9, 2026

Oh, those Stampin’ UP! Sweet Bugs are so darn cute!!! To make a quick fun fold, just cut the front of a portrait card base on the diagonal from the top left at the middle scoreline to the bottom right corner where it opens up. Emboss a 4″ by 5-1/4″ piece of white card stock and cut on the diagonal from the top left corner to the bottom right corner. You can use one on the outside and one on the inside or just use one on the inside so you can stamp a sentiment on the Cloud Cover card base.

I stamped and die cut the festive little ants and colored them but I just die cut the green bug out of the Cute as a Bug Designer Series Paper. So many fun sheets of sweet little bugs. Just a little decorating on the inside.

I can’t wait to play some more with this suite. It is so cheerful with its bright colors and adorable bugs! Being an Ammy (grandma) of 6 under 6, bugs have become cute again!

Stampin’ UP! Outside Inside Wallet Gift Card Holder Video Tutorial

I have a cool card for you today. I am calling it an Outside Inside Wallet Gift Card Holder. It can be a pop up fun fold or a pop up gift card holder. I modified the measurements from some cards I saw online, and it reminds me of a wallet!

See how it resembles a wallet? Now the super cool thing is how the OUTSIDE becomes the INSIDE easel mechanism! Fancy, huh? I made two of them…the pop up one using the Stampin’ UP! Nature’s Symphony Bundle and the True Blue Floral Deisgner Series Paper. Take a look at the video to see how easy it is to make!
