Card Art by Helen

Here's this month's colour combination:

And here's the project it inspired:

The 6" x 6" Designer Series Papers that are available in assortments corresponding to each of our Colour Families feature versatile patterns that are great to have on hand for crafting for all occasions. This card uses papers from the Subtles Collection.
 

A rectangle of the Lost Lagoon floral pattern measuring 2¾" x 3¾" was adhered to the top section of a Basic White rectangle measuring 4" x 4¼". A rectangle of the Calypso Coral striped pattern measuring 1½" x 3¾" was added to the bottom section of the Basic White rectangle. This panel was adhered to the middle of a Secret Sea folded card base.

A stitched hexagon was cut from Basic White Cardstock using the largest die from the Nested Essentials Dies. The two words, "thank" and "you" from the Layered Thoughts Photopolymer Stamp Set, were stamped on the stitched hexagon using Secret Sea Classic Stampin' Ink. The sentiment panel was adhered towards the bottom of the card front using Stampin' Dimensionals. Rhinestone Basic Jewels were added as embellishments.

And here's the project it inspired:

The Kintsugi Inspirations Suite Collection is inspired by the centuries-old technique of mending treasured objects with lacquer and gold. The gold foil accents and rich colour palette will add a touch of elegance to your projects.
 

Three rectangles of two different patterned papers from the Kintsugi Inspirations 12" x 12" Specialty Designer Series Paper measuring 3¾" x 1 9/16" were added to a Basic White Cardstock layer (measuring 5¼" x 4"). To ensure the DSP pieces were evenly spaced, the top and bottom rectangles were adhered to the backing cardstock first and then the central piece was added. This layer was added to a folded Misty Moonlight card base.

One Misty Moonlight vase and one Basic Beige bowl were cut from the DSP sheet using the corresponding Inspiring Imperfection Dies. These were added to the card front using Stampin' Dimensionals™. The sentiment, from the Inspiring Imperfections Photopolymer Stamp Set, was stamped on Basic White Cardstock using Misty Moonlight Classic Stampin' Ink and cut out using the torn label die from the same die set. The sentiment was added to the card front using Stampin' Dimensionals. Gold Flower Accents, which are also part of the same suite collection, were added as embellishments.

Here's this month's colour combination:

And here's the project it inspired:

This card features two colours from our new In Color™ Collection, and the bright tones of Strawberry Slush and Timid Tiger are perfect for creating topical plumage for the birds in the Feathered Fun Photopolymer Stamp Set.
 

The twin bird line image from the Feathered Fun set was stamped using Tuxedo Black Memento™ Ink on Basic White Cardstock. The image was then coloured using Lemon Lime Twist Stampin' Blends, and Strawberry Slush and Timid Tiger Stampin' Write Markers (Stampin' Blends could be substituted for a less solid effect). The image was carefully cut out using Paper Snips. The detailed leaf image was stamped multiple times on Basic White Cardstock using Lemon Lime Twist Ink, and the stamped images also carefully cut out.

The solid heart die measuring approximately 3¼" wide from the Hearts of Elegance Dies was used to cut a heart shape from Strawberry Slush Cardstock. This was adhered to a Basic White Cardstock rectangle measuring 3½" x 4¾". The bird element was added to the left-hand side of the heart using Stampin' Dimensionals, and the stamped leaves tucked underneath. The sentiment, from the Hearts of Elegance Photopolymer Stamp Set, was stamped using Tuxedo Black Memento Ink on Basic White Cardstock, and the sentiment carefully cut out in two parts as shown using Paper Snips. The two parts of the sentiment were then adhered to the card panel using Stampin' Dimensionals.

The card panel was adhered to a 4⅞" x 3⅝" Timid Tiger Cardstock rectangle, and the layered panel added to a Lemon Lime Twist folded card base. Timid Tiger Flat Pearls, from the 2025-2027 In Color Flat Pearls, were added as embellishments.

And here's the project it inspired:

The new Online Exclusive Floral Impressions Suite Collection features pretty florals as layered stamp images, textured die cuts, and paper patterns.
 

A layer of Fresh Freesia Cardstock was embossed using the Mini Corrugated 3D Embossing Folder, trimmed to measure 3¾" x 5", and adhered directly to a Fresh Freesia folded card base.

The large elongated oval die from the Impressions Abloom Dies was used to cut a solid oval from the floral pattern shown from the Floral Impressions 12" x 12" (30.5 x 30.5 cm) Designer Series Paper. This oval was adhered to the left-hand side of the card front, over the embossed panel, and the overhang trimmed.

The sentiment, from the Impressions Abloom Photopolymer Stamp Set, was stamped using Misty Moonlight Classic Stampin' Ink on a ¾" x 3½" strip of Basic White Cardstock. Using dies from the Impressions Abloom Dies, two textured flower elements were die cut from Blackberry Bliss Cardstock and one from Misty Moonlight Cardstock, and flower centres die cut from Fresh Freesia Cardstock. The centres were adhered to each flower, and then the three adhered to the left edge of the sentiment strip. The sentiment strip was then adhered to the card front, and the excess trimmed from the right-hand side. Two-Tone Sparkle Gems were added as embellishments.

There have been some quality issues with the new Cloud Cover Classic Stampin' Pad and Stampin' Up!® has decided not to make it available for sale. This also means that there will be no ink pad bundle available for this set of In Colors. They have identified that the issue is connected to the chemical makeup of the firm foam in our ink pads, so if you wish to use a Cloud Cover ink pad for stamping you are able to make your own felt ink pad using our uninked Stampin' Spots (sold as a pack of 5; 141822) and the Cloud Cover Classic Stampin' Ink Refill (165279). A Cloud Cover Stampin' Spot is also included in the Classic Stampin' Spot Small Assortment 1 (166716).

The wait for the NEW 2025-2026 Annual Catalogue is over!

Here's this month's colour combination:

And here's the project it inspired:

Soft pastel shades are perfect for a birthday card, and the Birthday Treats Mix & Match Ephemera Pack provides some pretty die cut elements that speed up the creative process.
 

A stitched banner shape was die cut from Basic White Cardstock using the die from the Birthday Celebration Dies. The pink layered cake element from the The Birthday Treats Mix & Match Ephemera Pack was adhered to the left-hand side of the die cut using Stampin' Dimensionals. Colour was added to the candles element from the same ephemera pack using the light Pool Party and Lemon Lolly Blends. The candles were added to the top of the cake, and leaves (cut from Mossy Meadow Cardstock using the die from the Birthday Celebration Dies) and flowers (cut from Bubble Bath Cardstock using the die from the same set) added at the base of the candles. The "happy" sentiment from the coordinating Birthday Celebration Photopolymer Stamp Set was stamped using Bubble Bath Classic Stampin' Ink in the top right corner of the banner shape. The script "birthday" sentiment from the same set was stamped on Basic White Cardstock using Bubble bath ink, carefully cut out using Paper Snips, and adhered across the cake and banner element using Stampin' Dimensionals.

The completed focal element was adhered to the die cut lattice rectangle from the ephemera pack, which was then layered to the lighter side of a 3¾" x 5¼" rectangle of Two-Tone Bubble Bath Cardstock using Stampin' Dimensionals.

A rectangle (4¼" x 5½") of the dotted Soft Seafoam patterned paper from the Wildflower Birthday 12" x 12" Specialty Designer Series Paper was adhered to a folded Basic White card base, and the completed panel added to the card front. Iridescent Pearl Basic Jewels were added as embellishments.
