Hello! I have a super quick card to share today! This one is super quick. As we head into the summer my stamping style always has to adjust slightly. Kids home mean less time for work and more time driving to camps/volunteer positions/jobs/friends/etc. My son will be working this summer and will have a car. My daughter will be volunteering among other things but won't have a car, she won't even have her official drivers license until the end of the summer so that means the mom taxi is in full swing. With less time to craft the cards get quick but they're still just a cute! This new bundle, Safari Smiles, is sooooo cute!! I love it! There's a few sweet images but the simple, basic greetings are completely worth it! How often do you just need a card that says 'hey there'.
The coordinating dies have incredible pieces to assist the images. These funky clouds might be my very favorite. Plus the rock and grass. Too cute! I stamped the elephant on Smoky Slate Cardstock with Basic Gray Ink. I didn't do a lot of coloring I just used a Smoky Slate Stampin' Blend to add some shadows to the elephant. Sometimes that's all you need!

I have the sweetest box to share today-literally sweet like honey! I'm using the Sweet Old Bear Suite for this cute box that holds a Little Debbie Honey Bun. These are available year round at my grocery store, you can also find them on Amazon. To see where they're sold in your area check out the Little Debbie Snack Finder here. I thought the honey buns were such a cute honey themed treat for this suite of products. If you love these products make sure to check out my current Class To Go featuring these products. You can still earn the class free by placing an order in my Online Store by May 15, 2026. You can see the Class To Go and get all the details here.
My finished box is 3 3/4" x 4 1/2" x 1 1/4" so it will hold some super cute gifts if you don't want to fill it with a honey bun. I used Stampin' Blends for my images, check the supply list for a full list of colors used. The DSP is completely adorable. I used the map image from the Silly Old Bear Pack for the background for my images. For the piece that wraps around I went with a basic Crumb Cake Pattern from the Brushed With Beauty package. It coordinated perfectly.
For a little bit of shine I used the Pearls Of Beauty as accents on my box and a pop of color with Bubble Bath Ribbon. To tie in the ribbon I colored the honey pot in bubble bath. Finally, Tigger is on an action wobbler to make him wobble and bounce. We don't sell action wobblers through Stampin' Up!, the ones I used I got on Amazon linked here. Action wobblers are such a fun way to bring character or images to life. Everyone loves them!

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.

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.

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!

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.
