This week I will be focused on showing you sneak peek projects made with items from the soon-to-be-released May-Aug 2026 catalog and Online Exclusives. Today's projects are focused solely on items from the upcoming catalog. I've used the new 2026-2028 In Colors, the April POTM (product of the month) and bundles from the catalog. I hope you enjoy this little sneak peek and are inspired to add these products to your wish list if you haven't already. There is a video tutorial over on my YouTube for my projects and you can access that by clicking on this link.
A place to share my love for paper crafting as an independent Stampin' Up!®️ Demonstrator.

Ladybug Birthday in 2026-2028 In Colors
For my card today I wanted to focus on the new 2026-2028 In Colors which will debut on May 5. I had this vision to stamp the ladybugs in a row and color one in each color...then decided I really needed to use the Peaceful Pine to color my foliage rather than a ladybug. I started with a sketch (of which this card looks absolutely nothing like except for the rectangle lol), then dove in and this is the result. I am rather pleased with the looks of it. It just goes to show you how you can start with an idea or sketch and it's only a jumping off point for your creativity. To watch the YouTube video tutorial on how I put this card together, click this link.

Pop-up Shadow Box Happy Hibiscus 2025-2027 In Colors intro
Here it is another week gone by and it's Saturday already. Today is my favorite Saturday of the month as I will be spending the day with my friends stamping, eating and enjoying each other's company. It doesn't get any better than that! I have another one of the Pop-up Shadow Box fun fold cards I made during my Facebook Live on Tuesday. This features all the new 2025-2027 In Colors Stampin' Up! will release to customers on May 6. I used the Happy Hibiscus stamp and die bundle to decorate my card.

Hearts and Hugs badger box
Hello and happy Saturday! I've put together this quick treat box for my first live video tutorial over on YouTube. You can watch the replay here:
This box is a sneak peek of new products which will be released in the 2024-2025 Stampin' Up! Annual Catalog which will go live to customers beginning May 1. It features the Hearts and Hugs bundle and one of the new 2024-2026 In colors, Summer Splash. It's very quick and easy and doesn't take a lot of products so it can easily be replicated for any occasion. I hope you like it.

Celebrating Someone Special Fun Fold card
Today’s project is a quick and easy fun fold which showcases scenery Designer Series Papers. I’m using the Meandering Meadow paper which is gorgeous! It’s so pretty you may have a hard time cutting it up. My purpose with this card is to showcase some new product, along with some soon to be retired products. This hopefully show you how to combine something you may already have with something new. The new product is the Filled With Fun stamp & die bundle by Stampin' Up! Retiring products include the Scalloped Contour Dies (a must own in my opinion) and the 2022-2024 In Colors cardstock, Stampin’ Blends and gems). All products may be purchased in my online store by clicking the shopping cart in the upper right. To see how I put this card together, be sure to watch the video replay over on my YouTube channel.

Nature's Prints natural stamped wreath book fold card
Another week has flown on by and it's Thursday again! Today's project is featuring the Nature's Prints bundle from the newly released Stampin' Up! 2022-2023 Annual Catalog. You will find the suite of products on pages 90-91. You can watch how I put this card and one additional card, which will be posted on my blog on Saturday, here. If you've been following me very long, you'll know how much I love a good wreath. I was hanging out yesterday, when the idea for this card just popped into my head. As I didn't have any grandkids to watch, I headed straight for my studio to put the image in my head down on paper. I love how it turned out!
