Several new products have been made available today from the September-December 2024 Mini Catalog (AND the September 2024 Scrapbooking Brochure & Kits Collection)! So I thought I’d create with some of the new goodies that are already in my possession so you could see these products up close and personal. And I came up with some fun little boxes.
I just showed live on YouTube and on Facebook about an hour ago step-by-step directions for creating these cute Drawer Boxes (with Card Tops) from the new Humble Home Bundle, the Choose Happy Stamp Set, Woven Golden Leaves, the Birch Wood Embossing Folder, Red & White Peppermints, and other coordinating Stampin’ Up!® product. And now I’m sharing that video here in my blog post. Be sure to watch thevideo by clicking here (or you can just click on this image below if you are already on my blog post), scroll through the close-up photos that follow, check out the measurements & products list below, and then let me know if you have any questions.

Do you ever do that…order just the stamp set (or just the dies) thinking you had ordered them both in the bundle? That’s what I did with the new Online Exclusive, Sophisticated Sled. But now I have the both in my hands. And I’ve put together some fun fold cards featuring the skates and sled images from this bundle. I’m excited to share!
Because it was so similar to the these outside-in fun fold cards that I shared back in January, I extended the name to “Diamond Outside-In” cards. But this fun fold card has also been called the Diamond Fold Card or the Diamond Flip Fold Card.
I just showed live on YouTube and on Facebook about an hour ago step-by-step directions for creating these cards with the newly released Sophisticated Sled Stamp Set & Dies (products from the Online Exclusives), Thoughtful Journey Patterned Paper, Winter Meadow Patterned Paper, coordinating cardstocks and inks, and other Stampin’ Up!® products. And now I’m sharing that video here in my blog post.

Happy holidays from the Tessman/Jandro family: Nick (18), Rachel, Tim and Luke (almost 17).
It’s Christmas day, so I’m keeping it short. But I thought I’d share the card I sent to those in my Stampers With ART Community of paper crafters. I used the Joy To You stamp set (retiring January 3rd), the Snowflake Sky 3D Embossing Folder, the Silver & White 1/2″ Sheer Ribbon, Poppy Parade Ink (which looks like Cherry Cobbler – I was having issues with my camera the day I took my photos), Basic White Cardstock, and Smoky Slate Cardstock and Ink (although they look like Basic Gray in my photos).
Products I used… See below for a complete list of products linked to where you can find them in my online store.
Measurements
Basic White Thick Cardstock
4-1/4” x 11″ scored parallel to short side at 5-1/2”
Smoky Slate Cardstock
3-5/8” x 4-7/8”
Basic White Cardstock
3-1/2” x 4-3/4”
Scrap for stamping and trimming sentiment
Silver & White 1/2″ Sheer Ribbon
4″
The first step is to stamp the full image with Smoky Slate ink onto the white layer. Stamp the image again with Poppy Parade ink onto the white scrap and trim out just the “joy to you” so that it is just under 1/2″ in height. In other words, trim close.
Emboss the white layer, add a strip of Tear & Tape across the Smoky Slate “joy to you,” and adhere the ribbon. Trim the ends of the ribbon. Add this white layer to the Smoky Slate Cardstock layer and then again to the white card base.
Add the Poppy Parade “joy to you” atop the ribbon with Dimensionals so the silver of the ribbon edges still appear above and below. Then finish off with a small Rhinestone.
I hope you enjoyed a little dose of creativity in your “stocking.” Wishing you health and happiness this day and in the year to come.

#APaperPumpkinThing Welcome to our monthly APPT blog hop to showcase Paper Pumpkin kit alternate projects! This time we are highlighting the Nov 2023Warm WishesPaper Pumpkin kit. See what I have to share. Then check out all the other blogs in the hop for additional creative ideas my fellow Stampin’ Up! demonstrator friends shared. To follow the hop and see these other creative project ideas, simply scroll down and click on the names of the other hop participants. (If you are receiving this blog post by email, click HERE to see the hop.)
Here are the treat containers the kit instructs how to make. (Click here for a link to Stampin’ Up!’s how-to video to help you assemble these as intended.)
I’ve already shared some other alternate projects using the contents of this kit on Nov 22.
Two variations of the treat containers
Cards that are paired with the Warm Wishes Add-On Cards and Envelopes
And cards that show how you can multiply the kit to get 32 cards.
Today I am sharing a 12×12 scrapbook page layout.
I have a senior in high school this year. Thoughts of my boys moving out someday and coming back for the holidays inspired the title for this layout, which I thought was fitting for all of the festive houses.
The large houses come from the treat containers in this kit. The smaller ones come from pieces in the October 2023 kit (these two kits coordinate with each other). I also used the Glitter Glue from the October kit on the torn edges of my snowy hills, and on the upper left areas of my die-cut letters.
The Balmy Blue Sparkle Ribbon trailing through the middle of the page is retiring soon. The letters of the title were created with the Mini Alphabet Dies, which will debut Jan. 4.
Products I used… See below for a complete list of extra products I used linked to where you can find them in my online store.
Measurements…
Basic White Cardstock
(2) 12″ x 12″
(2) 6″ x 12″
Balmy Blue Cardstock
(4) 4-1/8″ x 5-1/2″
(2) 4-1/8″ x 4-1/8″
Scraps for die-cutting letters
Balmy Blue Sparkle Ribbon
(2) 9″
I added the ribbon using Tear & Tape Adhesive 4-3/4″ down from the top on each page. The ribbon is only 9″ so you’ll want to make sure it starts at the outer edges because the gap in the middle will be covered by the mini houses and tree pieces from the October kit. After adding the photo mats across the top, above the ribbon, I added the mini houses and trees with dimensionals.
I tore my 6″ x 12″ paper to create the snowy hills and used the excess that curved downward for the extra hill in the distance. After attaching these to the page I was able to position and adhere my blue letters. Next I added the square photo mats and the larger houses. The houses without the wreaths come forward a bit more with dimensionals. I also added an extra roof layer with dimensionals on those houses. After adding the glitter glue to the hills and letters in the title, and allowing it to dry, I finished by adding three pearls to the left of the word ‘home’ to balance the spacing.
I hope I inspired your creativity with what I shared today! If you did not get this kit, I hope you can apply these ideas to products you already own.

I came up with my own fun fold card back in March of 2018. And today I wanted to revive that Vertical Stretch Card to show how to cut and use 6 x 6 paper in the best way with this card fold design. I also figured out the measurements for A4 size paper for all of you that measure using metric!
A few hours ago I shared live on YouTube and on Facebook step-by-step directions for creating three Vertical Stretch Cards using products from the Garden Walk Suite: the Modern Garden Stamp Set, the Modern Oval Punch, the Garden Walk Designer Paper, the Blooming Pearls, and other coordinating Stampin’ Up!® product. 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 are already on my blog post), scroll through the close-up photos that follow, check out the measurements & products list below, and then let me know if you have any questions.

I’ve been dying to share this amazing stamp set and die bundle since I purchased it back in August on my preorder from the now-retiring Sept-Dec 2023 Mini Catalog. In fact, this bundle is one of the products that will be leaving us soon. I’ve paired it with the amazing Deckled Circle Dies (which will remain a current product) so I could show you how to make a unique, interactive Rocker Card. In fact, I have two versions of the card to share with you today.
Today …how to make a Rocker Card using the Decked Circle Dies, the Wishes All Around Stamps & Dies, the Winter Meadow Designer Paper, and other coordinating Stampin’ Up!® product.
I just showed live on YouTube and on Facebook about an hour ago step-by-step directions for creating these cards with the products I mentioned above, the Winter Meadow Designer Paper, and other coordinating Stampin’ Up!® product. 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 are already on my blog post), scroll through the close-up photos that follow, check out the measurements & products list below, and then let me know if you have any questions.

Gosh, I love the perks of being a Stampin’ Up! demonstrator. One of my favorite perks is getting the catalogs and publications early (these just came in the mail yesterday!) AND being able to preorder and pre-earn a month before everyone else. December 5 is the magic date for us demonstrators. My wish list is long!
