Who doesn’t love adding a little creativity to their projects? I wanted to be creative with the Stampin’ Up Trusty Tools bundle, Trusty Toolbox 12″ x 12″ Designer Series Paper (DSP), Sweet Thoughts Memories and More Card Pack, and the Perennial Postage dies.
Instructions: The paint brush was die cut from the Trusty Toolbox DSP using the Trusty Tools dies. The sentiment was stamped in Pretty Peacock ink on the Basic White cardstock Postage Stamp die cut piece. The flowers are from the Sweet Thoughts and Memories Card Pack. The three paint lines came from one of the cards in the Sweet Thoughts and Memories Card Pack.
Below is a list of Stampin’ Up products I used to create this card. Happy stamping! 🙂
Creating projects with the Stampin’ Up Trusty Tools bundle is so much fun. I used the Trusty Tools dies to die cut all of the tools from the Trusty Toolbox Designer Series Paper (DSP). I just love how Stampin’ Up creates coordinating products and when some of the dies will cut out images from the DSP.
Want to add a little fun to your card? Just use a black Stampin’ Write Marker to draw a line from the pencil. The pencil was die cut from the Trusty Toolbox DSP.
Today I wanted to have some fun with the Stampin’ Up Trusty Toolbox 12″ x 12″ Designer Series Paper (DSP) which is a product you can earn with a qualifying purchase during Sale-A-Bration. For this card I paired the Trusty Toolbox DSP with the Perennial Postage bundle. The color combination I used for this card is below:
The card base is 11″ x 4.25″ (scored at 5.5″). The grid paper, from the Trusty Toolbox DSP, layer of the card was created by using the Perennial Postage dies. The strips of tape measure were cut from the Trusty Toolbox DSP using the Stampin’ Up Trimmer. The Lost Lagoon layer behind the measuring tape was die cut using the Stylish Shapes dies. The white square postage stamp layer was die cut using the Perennial Postage dies. The measuring tape was die cut from the Trusty Toolbox DSP using the Trusty Tools Dies. Next, the sentiment from the Perennial Postage stamp set was stamped in Lost Lagoon on a 1″ x 3.25″ piece of Basic White cardstock. Lastly, I used the heart die from the Give it a Whirl die set to die cut the heart out of Poppy Parade cardstock.
For the inside of the card I wanted to add a special touch. The Crushed Curry layer is 5″ x 3.75″. The white layer was die cut using the Perennial Postage dies. The Poppy Parade heart was die cut using the Give it a Whirl days.
Hope I was able to inspire you to have some fun with the Trusty Toolbox DSP. Happy stamping! 🙂
Today I paired the Sweetest Cherries stamp set and Cherry Builder punch with the Sunny Days Designer Series Paper (DSP) which is a Stampin’ Up Sale-A-Bration item you can earn with a qualifying Stampin’ Up purchase.
To create this card, I stamped the sentiment from the Sweetest Cherries stamp set on Basic White cardstock and then fussy cut them using scissors. Next, I die cut one Shaded Spruce circle and one Basic White circle using the Stylish Shape dies. On the Basic White circle I stamped the cherry image in Poppy Parade ink, the stem in Black ink, and the leaves in Shaded Spruce. I wanted to give my card some dimension so I decided to stamp and punch out another cherry using the same colors as before and used Stampin’ Dimensionals to adhere it to the card.
Card Measurements:
Card base: 11″ x 4.25″ (scored at 5.5″)
Shaded Spruce layer: 4″ x 4.25″
Sunny Days DSP layer: 3.5″ x 4.25″

Today I wanted to highlight two of the Sale-A-Bration products that a person can earn with a qualifying Stampin’ Up order: Sunny Days 12″ x 12″ Designer Series Paper (DSP) and Heartfelt Hellos stamp set that coordinates with the Heartfelt Hexagon punch.
This card was a lot of fun to make. I mixed and matched a lot of Stampin’ Up products. The Shaded Spruce card base is 5.5″ x 8.5″ (scored at 4.25″). The Poppy Parade layer is 5.25″ x 4″. Next, I die cut a scalloped rectangle using the Scalloped Contour die set. The Sunny Days DSP layer is 4.75″ x 3.5″. The Shaded Spruce strip is 1.5″ x 4.25″. The Love You More Sentiment from the Heartfelt Hellos stamp set was stamped on Basic White cardstock in Poppy Parade ink, the border was stamped in Poppy Parade ink using the image from the Stampin’ Up Heartfelt Hexagon stamp set, and then it was punched out using the Heartfelt Hexagon punch. The Crushed Curry and Basic White circles were die cut using the Stylish Shapes dies. The Poppy Parade hearts were die cut using the dies from the Give it a Whirl die set. Lastly, the turtle image from the Playing in the Rain stamp set was stamped on Basic White cardstock, colored using Granny Apple Green Stampin’ Blends, and die cut using the Playing in the Rain dies. To add some pizzaz, I used some Black and White 1/4″ gingham ribbon.
I really enjoyed adding a special touch to the inside of this card. The Poppy Parade layer is 5.25″ x 4″ and then I die cut a piece of Basic White cardstock using a scalloped rectangle die from the Scalloped Contour die set. Lastly, I stamped and colored the flowers from the Playing in the Rain stamp set.
I hope I inspired you to be creative. A list of supplies to create this card is below:
When I first saw the Stampin’ Up Bright Skies bundle the first thing that came to my mind was pairing it with the Playing in the Rain stamp set and dies and the Raindrops embossing folder which are in the Stampin’ Up 2023 -2024 Annual Catalog. The Playing in the Rain stamp set and dies are perfect to create some cute cards with.
The color combination I used to create this slimline card are the following:
I was inspired to make this card from the Stampin’ Up Sale-A-Bration brochure. I just love the the Bright Skies bundle in the January – April 2024 Stampin’ Up Mini Catalog and the Sunny Days Designer Series Paper (DSP) that can be earned during Sale-A-Bration with a qualifying purchase.
I used thick white cardstock for the card base (11″ x 4.25″ scored at 5.5″). Petal Pink DSP for the first layer (5.5″ x 4.25″). Basic white cardstock for the middle of the card (5.5″ x 3.25″). The raindrop DSP is 3″ x 3.25″. I used the cloud dies in the Brighter Skies bundle to die cut the clouds out of the Sunny Days DSP. The pool party cloud outline was created using cloud border die in the Brighter Skies bundle (measurement: 2″ x 3.25″). The sun was created by using the dies in the Brighter Skies bundle; the rays of the sun was die cut from Crushed Curry cardstock and the middle of the sun was die cut from Lemon Lolly cardstock. The sentiment was heat embossed on a Shaded Spruce label that was created by one of the label dies in the Something Fancy Dies.
Inside of the card. Pool Party cardstock layer is 5.25″ x 4″. Basic White cardstock layer is 5″ x 3.75″. The Petal Pink strip is 1″ x 3.75″.

I’m not sure about you, but when I looked in the Stampin’ Up January – April 2024 Mini Catalog that just launched on January 4, 2024 I was super excited. One of the bundles that caught my eye first was the Bright Skies bundle. I could envision having lots fun with the set. Then to my surprise I discovered that there is a coordinating 12″ x 12″ Designer Series Paper (DSP) for the Bright Skies bundle in the Stampin’ Up Sale-A-Bration brochure that can be earned with a $50 Stampin’ Up purchase.
Over the next couple of weeks I’d like to share with you some cute projects you can create with the Bright Skies bundle and Sunny Days 12″ x 12″ DSP.
This first project that I made below challenged me to use the Stampin’ Up Give it a Whirl dies that I had on hand, but had not used yet.
The color combination I decided to use for this card is the following:
Front of card with the rainbow image stamped in the open slot. The rainbow image is from the Stampin’ Up Just My Type stamp set (2023-2024 Stampin’ Up Annual Catalog). I used Poppy Parade, Daffodil Delight, and Pool Party Stampin’ Blends to color the rainbow. The cloud was created by using one of the cloud dies included in the Stampin’ Up Give it a Whirl dies set. After die cutting the cloud, I used the striped cloud stamp that is a part of the Bright Skies bundle and stamped it on the cloud using the Pool Party stamp pad.
When you spin the wheel by moving the dial on the right side of the card downwards, the next image that shows up in the open slot is the one shown above. The Sprinkled With Love sentiment and die cut raindrops are from the Bright Skies bundle. The sentiment was stamped in Poppy Parade and the raindrops were die cut from Pool Party cardstock.
When you spin the wheel by moving the dial on the right side of the card downwards one more time, the next image that comes up is three flowers. The flowers were die cut using the Bright Skies bundle. The flower stems were die cut from Shaded Spruce cardstock and the flowers were die cut from Crushed Curry, Pool Party, and Poppy Parade cardstock.
The Shaded Spruce card base is 8.5″ x 5.5″ scored at 4.25″. The top layer was created by using the Give it a Whirl dies and Sunny Days DSP. The wheel was die cut in basic white cardstock from the die in the Give it a Whirl die set and it was attached to the card via a brad (the brad is covered by the cloud with the sentiment, I hope your day is filled with sunshine and rainbows).The cloud was stamped in Pool Party and die cut from the Bright Skies bundle. The sentiment is from the Stampin’ Up Just My Type stamp sent and was stamped in Shaded Spruce on the cloud. The sun was stamped in Crushed Curry on basic white cardstock and die cut using the Bright Skies bundle. Lastly, the Poppy Parade heart located after the sentiment was die cut using one of the hearts in the Give it a Whirl die set.
Inside of card. Measurements: Pool Party layer: 5.25″ x 4″. Basic White: 5″ x 3.75″. Poppy Parade heart was die cut using another heart shaped die that is included with the Stampin’ Up Give it a Whirl die set.
I hope I was able to inspire you. For the supplies I used to create this card, please see below. Happy stamping friends! 🙂
Today’s projects feature the Stampin’ Up! Saint Nicholas bundle and Designer Series Paper (DSP). This first card is a slimline card (measurements: 3.5″ x 8.5″). The card base is made from Cherry Cobbler cardstock. I wanted a nice and cozy feel to the card so I used the Cherry Cobbler print of the inside of a house DSP. The DSP measurements are 3.25″ x 8.25″. I just love the little fireplace and I could not help but to create some stockings to hang over it using the Saint Nicholas bundle dies. I also used the Saint Nicholas dies to die cut Saint Nicholas from the Designer Series Paper. To create a little collage area on the card, I used the Deckled Circle dies, Tailor Made Tag dies, the Black and Very Vanilla Large Check Ribbon, and the May the Christmas season fill your home sentiment stamp from the Saint Nicholas stamp set. The tag is made with Crumb Cake cardstock and the sentiment was stamped in Early Espresso ink.
This A2 card (measurements: 4.25″ x 5.5″) highlights three different sheets of the Saint Nicholas Designer Series Paper (DSP). The card base is Mossy Meadow cardstock, the next layer on the card (measurements: 4″ x 5.25″) is Wild Wheat, and then I used two different DSP patterns (one Mossy Meadow print (measurements 3.75″ x 3.5″) and the other one is a Cajun Craze print (measurements: 3.75″ x 1.5″). The Wild Wheat strip of cardstock that is over the DSP is 1″ x 4″). The measurements of the Wild Wheat mat behind Saint Nicholas is 2.5″ x 4.5″ and the white cardstock is 2.25″ x 4.25″. The Saint Nicholas image was fussy cut from the DSP. Lastly, the Merry Christmas sentiment that I used is a part of the Stampin’ Up! Rocking Horse stamp set. I used Cajun Craze ink to stamp the sentiment and then fussy cut it out.
If you’d like to make these two projects, the supplies are listed below. Happy stamping!
The Stampin’ Up O Holy Night suite is just beautiful. This first card is one of the cards in the Stampin Up September – December 2023 Mini Catalog that when I saw it, I knew I would have to make it. I decided to use the Night of Navy & Gold 1/2″ inch ribbon behind the sentiment layer to add a little pizzaz to the card. For the card base I used Night of Navy cardstock, the sentiment was stamped in Night of Navy, the beautiful star was stamped on Boho Blue cardstock with Misty Moonlight ink.
This next card I had fun creating the Christmas Nativity scene. I chose to use various colors for it. I used Pebble Path cardstock for the shepherd, wise man, and sheep in the back area, Basic Black cardstock for Mary, Joseph, and the manger, Pecan Pie cardstock for the camel, Cajun Craze cardstock for the donkey, Very Vanilla cardstock for the two sheep in the front, Crumb Cake cardstock for the stable, Basic White cardstock for the deckled circle moon, and Boho Blue cardstock for the stars.
Below is a list of supplies I used to create these two beautiful cards:
