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. 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.
Products I used… See below for a complete list of products linked to where you can find them in my online store.

I’m excited to share with you my first set of alternate projects I’ve created with the June 2024 Life Is Sweet Paper Pumpkin kit!
For those of you not familiar with these kits, they get delivered straight to your mailbox in the months of your choice. Inside are all the supplies you need AND the directions for assembling the kit cards/projects designed. Here are the intended cards designed for this June 2024 Life Is Sweet Paper Pumpkin kit. (Click here for Stampin’ Up!’s how-to video to help you assemble these as intended.)
What are alternate projects? Well, I take the supplies from the kits and create other things…different cards and projects. This way I can show others how to stretch the kits in new ways. A kit that you may have not been a fan of might all of a sudden be more attractive (or a favorite) because of a new way of using the supplies!
And I’m sharing my first alternates with you today. Even if you didn’t get this kit, I hope the ideas I share can be applied to other products you own, and I hope what I share inspires your creativity!

We are busy preparing for Nick’s graduation party that will be held here on June 9th. He’s super excited and ready to move onto college to focus on Exercise Science, but will be enjoying a well-deserved summer off first. His last day of school is Friday, and the graduation ceremony is Monday evening.
In addition to party prepping, I’m creating many personalized graduation cards for the other kids we know that are also graduating this year. This fun fold card I’m sharing today is pretty popular. In fact, I found several versions of it out there on the internet. So I tweaked it a bit to make it large enough to hold a gift card upright AND large enough to fill our standard Basic White envelopes.
I just showed live on YouTube and on Facebook about an hour ago step-by-step directions for creating these Grad Cap Fold Cards with Pockets using the the Wonderful Thoughts Stamp Set and other fabulous products from Stampin’ Up! I also shared measurements of other basic variations. 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.
Products I used… See below for a complete list of products linked to where you can find them in my online store.

Here are photos of the finished cards I demonstrated.
What a fun card for a grad to open, right?!
And the sentiments from Wonderful Thoughts are perfect.
I love that this size allows a gift card to fit upright, too.
I hope you enjoyed what I shared today!

I’m absolutely in love with Stampin’ Up!’s new 2024-26 In Color Collection! These trending colors debuted in the 2024-25 Annual Catalog and in the Online Store on May 1st. But many of us demonstrators/reps for the company were able to get our hands on these colors much earlier. So I showed them off in a Live video on March 19th. Did you view it? Click here (or below) to see that color reveal and color comparison presentation.
To make this month of May even more exciting for those wanting to add these new In Color products to their collection, Stampin’ Up! is currently offering $82 worth of these 2024-26 In Color products (the ink pads, markers, assorted cardstock, and designer paper) for FREE with the purchase of the Starter Kit. Purchasing the Starter Kit gets you on the demonstrator side of things. And then after getting the kit, you could choose to sell Stampin’ Up! products to others or not worry about any of that and just enjoy being a discount shopper. You would also be a part of my exclusive Stampers With ART Community.
So today I thought I’d show you some fun fold cards featuring these products paired with the new Friends For Life Bundle. You can make versions of these cards with any colors or with other stamps and dies. But I wanted to feature these new colors AND I chose this bundle because is has a variety of sentiments and the leaf imagery coordinates great with one of the designer paper patterns.
I also thought I’d show off one of my favorite cards I received in a recent swap. This card (designed by fellow demonstrator, Virginie Julien) features all these new colors in a beautiful watercolor design. (She is planning to share how to make her card soon…possibly even this Wednesday! Here is a link to her Facebook page. And here is a link to her YouTube channel.)
