My May in person class was so fun! The theme was, of course, New Catalog and New Online Exclusives. We made cards all featuring new products. I'm excited to share the cards from my class with you. Supply lists and measurements are reserved for the attendees of my class. If you're in the Albuquerque area I'd love to see you at a class. Contact me at stamperrdn@myctl.com for details on my next in person class I'd love to welcome you to a class in 2026.
The first card features the Sunset Coast Bundle. This bundle is gorgeous but the Scenic Coast DSP is absolutely stunning!! There are iridescent details that are simply stunning! Also new on this card is the Sunset Shimmer Vellum-WOW!
Next up, we used the new Bloom Boutique Bundle. We used everything in this suite execpt the Scalloped Window Boxes. Both Bundles are amazing! Plus the DSP with the gold accents is gorgeous!
The next card is a lot of die cutting but it's soooo cute! Plus the colors-YES!! Barely Blush, Crisp Cantaloupe, Pool Party and Pretty Peacock so summery and fun! We used the Splash & Relax Bundle. If you love this bundle I'll be featuring it in my second Class To Go this month. Check back next week for the cards!
I think you knew that a card featuring the Silly Old Bear Suite would be in this class. This one is super cute! If you love this card, I'm currently featuring these products in my Class To Go. Check it out here. You only have until May 15, 2026 to get this Class To Go free. If you love it shop my Online Store today!
Finally, the last card features the All Aflutter Bundle. This is a punch bundle that is so quick and easy to use! The card also features some new papers. The Bloom Boutique DSP is gorgeous! I also used the Sunset Shimmer Vellum. Both the Bloom Boutique and Vellum were used on previous cards in the class. Finally, I used the new Luxe White. This has some subtle details but is so pretty!
Welcome to another Class To Go! This class will feature the amazing and adorable Sweet Old Friends Bundle. You can earn this Class To Go FREE May 1-15, 2026 with a $50 minimum order in my Online Store. This class to go will feature four cards. Check below for all the details on earning this Class To Go. The featured embellishment this week are the In Color Butterflies. Receive an entire package FREE when your order is over $150. The cards also feature the Sweet Words and Labels Bundle.
The final card of the class uses a handful of the characters. I did try to fit even more on but the card was starting to look too crowded. I went with some fan favorites instead. If you have favorites make sure to use them here. I also included Piglet inside so you can definitely add more there too. I used the Hundred Acre Woods Embossing Folder for the background. The largest label is cut from Vellum. I love the look, soft enough to add interest but not distract from the main characters.

I used Stampin' Blends to color my images. My images were stamped with our new Hybrid Basic Black Ink. This is one ink for use with both water coloring and Stampin' Blends. I like the bold color of it. But you do need to give it adequate drying time. If the ink isn't fully set the blends can and will make the ink bleed. If you're concerned about this you can also stamp them in Memento Ink. Otherwise give plenty of dry time or use a heat tool to really dry the image.
My Mossy Meadow Ribbon is ruffled on the front of the card. This is a great way to add ribbon to a card when it can often seem like a bulky addition. I put some Tear and Tape on the back and ruffled it as I adhered it. Such a fun addition!

As a fan favorite in our house Eeyore deserved his own card. This one is sweet, simple and adorable just like Eeyore. Plus this color combo is one that I'm going to keep using, it's yummy! Misty Moonlight, Hydrangea Hue and Barely Blush. Yes! To coordinate the twine better with the card, I used my Hydrangea Hue Stampin' Blends and colored the White Baker's Twine. This is a great way to make your embellishments perfectly match your projects.

Today's card is soooo adorable! I've made lots of cards with this triangle open in the past. It's such an easy card and ALWAYS a hit! This time I added an additional card inside and it has a gift card holder. There's LOTS to love about this card! We're using the entire Silly Old Bear Suite for this card, both bundles, the DSP, and the embossing folder. LOVE it all!

The supporting dies in the Sweet Old Friends Bundle are amazing. How cute is that tree stump and the honey pots! For the front of the card we'll cut a piece of DSP in half diagonally, then use the other half inside for a gift card holder. Inside there's also a row of honey pots because why not? I used both Very Vanilla and Basic White for this card. I know some people prefer one or the other but not mixed. I don't mind mixing them. I like the crispness of the white alongside the vintage look of the vanilla. You can choose one if it bothers you.

First up is the cutest card. I think this might be one of my favorite images in the stamp set. The DSP in the Silly Old Bear is the best! This is one of my favorite patterns too. I love the subtle images of all the characters in our new Hydrangea Hue color. We'll be using lots of new In Colors this week.

Are you excited for these new classes? Me too!!! I'm so excited to bring you these new classes!
Starting May 5, 2026 we are launching the NEW May-August 2026 Catalog!! Also launching on May 5, 2026 a NEW round of Online Exclusives! They're amazing!!
You can now shop for brand new In Colors, bundles, papers and more!!
To see the list of NEW Online Exclusives check this out.
If you love exclusive products, you’re going to love Product of the Month, a promotion centered around a special product release every month. The Product of the Month items are specially designed to be some of the best items Stampin’ Up! has to offer that aren’t available in any of our catalogs or our Online Exclusives. Every month we’ll release a new item that is only available for purchase once per account. These items will be limited quantity and are likely to sell out quickly—once they’re sold out, they’re gone for good!
Available May 5, 2026:
Berry Botanical Vellum 12" x 12" (30.5 x 30.5 cm) Specialty Designer Series Paper
Add a fresh, artful touch to cards and paper crafts with Berry Botanical Vellum 12" x 12" (30.5 x 30.5 cm) Specialty Designer Series Paper. Hand-drawn patterns featuring polka dots, plaids, and berries make it easy to create custom designs with a playful, coordinated look.
Stampin’ Up! Account.To participate in Product of the Month, you MUST have a Stampin’ Up! account.
A New Product Every Month. Stampin' Up! will release a new Product of the Month item every month. You can view the newly released products on the Product of the Month page.
Qualifying Amounts. You can purchase the Product of the Month item for only $5 when you spend $75 or more in a single order. Your cart total MUST be $75 or more at checkout to qualify. You cannot add the Product of the Month to your cart until you’ve reached the qualifying amount. If you use Stampin’ Rewards, coupons, or discount codes on your order and your cart amount falls below $75, you’ll need to add items in your cart to get the total at or above the qualifying amount again.
Available Until Sold Out. Product of the Month products will be available until they’re sold out. Once they’re sold out, they won’t be available for purchase again. If you didn’t qualify to purchase the Product of the Month during the month it was first offered and it’s still available in the following months, you can purchase that product once you reach the qualifying amount. So, if you didn’t qualify in January but you qualify in February, you can choose to buy the January Product of the Month, provided it’s still available for purchase and you meet the qualifying amount. If you buy the January Product of the Month but still want the February Product of the Month, you’ll need to qualify again.
When you join as a demonstrator now, you’ll get our new 2026–2028 In Color Stampin’ Pads FREE along with your Starter Kit! Or if you’d rather have different products instead of ink pads, we’ve got you covered there, too—you can add an extra $35 worth of products to your Starter Kit.
You'll also enjoy all the perks that come with being a demonstrator, like a 20–25% product discount, early access to the latest products and catalogs, the opportunity to earn a modest commission, the chance to attend incredible training and crafting events, and so much more.
