Seasonal Sale Banner Nov 2024 info

Today begins the Stampin’ Up! 3-Day Seasonal Sale!

From the 2024–2025 Annual Catalog:

  • 10% off ink, including pads, refills, markers, and Stampin’ Blends. (Ink pad bundles and third-party ink pads are NOT included.)
  • 10% off cardstock. (Close To My Heart cardstock is NOT included.)
  • 20% total off all stamp and die bundles and stamp and punch bundles. (Stamp bundles are normally 10% off. With this sale you get an additional 10% off.)
  • 20% off all Designer Series Paper.

This Seasonal Sale includes the items listed above from the 2024–2025 Annual Catalog! This is a great time to get those bundles you’ve been eyeing and stock up on paper crafting essentials—every cute project starts with cute paper!

As you know, stamp and die Bundles are discounted 10% over the regular price of the separate items. This sale offers an additional 10% off the bundle price.

This is a great opportunity to go through your markers, particularly Stampin’ Blends, to see if any need replacing. It may sound tedious, but it is actually relaxing to just do a little scribbling on Basic White cardstock with each end of the Stampin’ Blend markers to see if any tips are messed up or dried up. I think using cardstock is better than computer paper as it shows the color better. It just takes a moment to make a little scribble! Stampin’ Blend Combos are 10% off on this sale!

Also, look through your little bottles of reinkers and see if any are getting low for colors you use a lot!

Check your inventory of cardstock before you get ready to make Christmas cards and projects!

  • Products are available while supplies last.
  • Discounts are automatically applied when sale items are added to any order, including Starter Kits.

Products are available while supplies last.

The Seasonal Sale ends November 15, 2024 at 11:59 PM MT.

Last Days For the Designer Series Paper Sale!

Leave a reply

It’s the Last Days for the Designer Series Paper Sale at Stampin’ Up! One of the (many) best things about Stampin’ Up! products is their designer series paper! So when you can get select papers from the Stampin’ Up! Annual Catalog at a 15% discount, it’s time to stock up on your favorites or try out some new papers that you have been wanting to purchase.

Some papers are 12″ x 12″ and some are 6″ x 6″. There’s a very nice variety to choose from! In fact, it isn’t easy to choose, unless you want them ALL! Stampin’ Up! papers coordinate nicely with our colors, one of Stampin’ Up!’s strengths. I always suggest writing the list of coordinating colors of the paper on the back cardboard in the package. They are printed there in teeny tiny print (unless you are 20 years of age and can still see everything perfectly!), so I take a Sharpie and write them on the side in bigger lettering that I can read! It’s very handy!

As I write this, the Country Woods Designer Series Paper is unavailable. It will be back in stock soon but it will be after the sale, as far as I know now. The Thoughtful Journey 6″ x 6″ DSP is “Low Inventory” so if you want that, be sure to order soon!

Countryside Inn Thinking of You Card

Countryside Inn Thinking of You Card

This Countryside Inn Thinking of You Card is an easy one and a pretty one for you to make! This designer series paper on this card is one of the fourteen designer papers on sale during August at Stampin’ Up! If you like blues and if you don’t have this paper yet, now is the time to get it at 15% off!

I chose Balmy Clue cardstock for the base of this card. It’s one of the colors that coordinates with this paper. I especially love this particular pattern in the Countryside Inn Designer Series Paper because it is soft and pretty. In the previous Stampin’ Up! Annual Catalog there was a Countryside Blossoms Embossing Folder that matched the design on this paper. If you already purchased that last year you can use it with this paper. I wanted to keep this card simple and let the paper show off its pretty design. I even managed to cut this scrap piece of designer paper that I had so that the two big flowers are centered on the card. I just had to trim thin strips off the sides of the card until I had it like I wanted.

If you would like to see the card I made with this Countryside Inn paper that I also embossed, click HERE.

The greeting is in the Sentimental Park Stamp Set. It’s two separate stamps because you can make different combinations of words to express your sentiment. My greeting is stamped in Balmy Blue ink on Basic White. I used two layering dies in the Something Fancy Dies. The layer underneath is Balmy Blue. I used Stampin’ Dimensionals to pop up the greeting. I also added two Rainbow Adhesive-Backed Rainbow Dots in Balmy Blue to each side of the greeting. The ribbon wrapped around the lower portion of the card is the white ribbon in the Petal Pink and White Diagonal Trim Ribbon Combo Pack. It’s a pretty ribbon and thin enough to be the perfect size when you don’t want the ribbon to be too dominant. I tied the bow separately and adhered it with Mini Glue Dots.

Be sure to check out the Stampin’ Up! Designer Series Paper Sale and save 15%! Some papers are 12″ x 12″ and a few are 6″ x 6″ so you have lots of choices. Use your Bonus Day coupon codes if you have them!

Citrus Blooms Best Kind of Person Card

Leave a reply
Citrus Blooms Best Kind of Person Card

This Citrus Blooms Best Kind of Person Card is my first card using the Mediterranean Blooms Suite that I got recently. You’ll find it in the new Stampin’ Up! Annual Catalog on pages 34-35. The designer paper in the Suite is what sold me, but the whole collection of products is beautiful. If you like these citrus images and tile designs, you will love this group of products!

Luckily, a Bundle Sale is coming Wednesday, June 5th, saving you an extra 10% over the Bundle price of 10% off normally for the stamp set and dies together. If you would like to purchase the Citrus Blooms Bundle June 5-30 is the time to get it! And if you don’t already own the Stampin’ Cut & Emboss Machine or the Mini Stampin’ Cut & Emboss Machine, these will be on sale 10% off also! Check out all the Bundles and make your shopping list!

To make this card, I started with an idea from a sample in the Annual Catalog. I did change the background paper and the greeting. When you start off with a brand new stamp set or Suite it’s often easier to copy an idea in the catalog. You’ll often start coming up with your own ideas for making it a little different as you copy the sample. That’s what the samples are there for in the catalog, to give us ideas of how to use the stamp sets!

The card base is Night of Navy. The Mediterranean Blooms Designer Series Paper has beautiful designs of fruits and tile designs. I chose a different tile design paper than the sample in the catalog and diecut it with the large outline die in the Citrus Blooms Dies. The oranges are stamped from the Citrus Blooms Stamp Set on Basic White Cardstock and then colored in with Stampin’ Blends Markers. You can use whatever colors and combinations of colors you like. You can combine two different colors, not just Light and Dark of one color. Just play and enjoy! After coloring, I diecut the oranges with the matching die. After adhering the designer paper to the card base, I adhered the oranges and leaves to the card using Stampin’ Dimensionals.

The greeting is in the stamp set. I stamped it in Night of Navy Ink on Basic White, then diecut with the smallest rectangle die in the Nested Essentials Dies. Since I didn’t have much room on the card, I didn’t want to add a layer under the greeting, so I just used a Night of Navy Stampin’ Blend marker and ran it around the edge of the diecut greeting. I adhered a piece of Peach Pie 3/8″ Bordered Ribbon under the greeting. I ran some Stampin’ Seal Adhesive on the back of the ribbon. Then I popped up the greeting with Stampin’ Dimensionals over the ribbon. For a finishing touch (and because I just wanted to use them!) I added three of the Opal Rounds in Night of Navy. These come in three colors, Night of Navy, Daffodil Delight, and Clear in two different sizes.

On the inside of the card, since the Night of Navy cardstock is dark, I added a layer of Basic White Cardstock for stamping or writing a greeting or message and adhered a narrow strip of the same tile design I used on the front of the card at the bottom of the card insert. That really adds something when you stamp something or add some designer paper to the inside of the card!

I think anybody will be able to make beautiful and striking cards using even just the Mediterranean Blooms Designer Series Paper and even more using the Citrus Blooms Bundle. Remember, the Bundle will go on sale June 5th for the whole month of June!
