I’m loving so many of the new products featured in the 2025-26 Annual Catalog that debuted a couple weeks ago. But recently I couldn’t stop creating with one stamp & die bundle in particular…Notes & Totes. And I couldn’t wait to share these card designs with you.
So today I went Live on YouTube and shared how to make these three unique and fun cards with with that stamp & die bundle, the Irresistible Designs Specialty Paper, the Extraordinary Flora washi tape and dies, the Soft Waves embossing folder, Gold Foil, and other coordinating Stampin’ Up!® products.

And now I’m sharing that video here in my blog post. Be sure to watch the video by clicking here (or you can just click on this image below if you can view it), scroll through the photos that follow, check out the measurements & products list below, and then let me know if you have any questions.
