NEW Online Exclusives Release, NEW Kits

A new batch of Online Exclusives launch on Tuesday, March 3rd!  Shop early.  This is only a small selection of the amazing products launching!!! 

Also launching on March 3rd, two all new kits!  

----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

NEW March Product of the Month

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!

Notes of Spring Stamp Set
Create an adorable card with this stamp set and send it to some-bunny you love! Or use it to craft a scrapbook spread of a moment you hold deer. Whatever you choose to create, this stamp set with woodland friends and useful sentiments is sure to add some springtime joy!

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.

----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Retiring In Colors

While we won't get the full retiring list from the Annual Catalog, Mini Catalog and Online Exclusives until a little later we do know that the 2024-2026 In Colors are retiring.  If you love these colors, NOW is the time to stock up on them.  Once they hit the Last Chance List they will sell out.  At the time of typing this the ink pads are in low inventory.  Don't wait to grab these colors before they're gone for good.  

If you already have the inks, make sure you get ink refills too! 

Shop also for cardstock, DSP, Stampin' Blends, embellishments, ribbon and more!  If a product features any of these five colors chances are it will be on the Last Chance List. 

Retiring colors are:

If you're waiting for this bundle to come back into stock it should be back soon.  This has been a super popular bundle and for good reason-it's so adorable!  For my card today I used lots of the colors from the DSP as my color inspiration for the card.  I used the dies for all of my flowers, leaves and mushroom.  The bee is stamped in Memento and colored with Stampin' Blends.  Check the supply list linked below for all the colors of my bee.

Peaceful Dock Bundle Class To Go Day 4-VIDEO Fancy Gatefold Fun Fold

Welcome to another Class To Go!  This class will feature the fun Peaceful Dock Bundle.  You can earn this Class To Go FREE February 16-28, 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 Moody Palette Glossy Dots.  Receive an entire package FREE when your order is over $150.  It's time to redeem your Bonus Days coupons!  If you shopped in February, you might have some Bonus Days coupons to use.  Use them this month and save on your order!  NOTE: to get the Class To Go free your total will still need to hit the minimum thresholds AFTER your coupon(s) are applied. 

The final card of the class is a fun fold.  You didn't really think I'd do a class to go with out at least one fun fold did you?  This is a vertical gate fold card.  I love the final card.  The colors are perfection!  I used Darling Duckling, Strawberry Slush and Secret Sea as the main color combos.  For the gate fold part, I used Darling Duckling Two Toned Cardstock.  This is long enough to make the whole front and special enough to give it lots of interest.  

Earning the Class To Go is easy-simply place an order in my Online Store!  

There's three options:

1. Earn the Class To Go Kit FREE with a $50 order. Includes all the supplies you'll need to complete the cards.  You will have to provide ink and stamps.  Kits will NOT come prestamped  If the featured bundle includes dies or punches you'll need those as well.  
2. Earn the Class To Go Kit FREE with a $100 order.  Includes everything from option 1 PLUS you'll get 5 FREE cards from my card basket sent FREE.
3. Earn the Class To Go Kit FREE with a $150 order.  Includes everything from option 2 PLUS you'll get a full embellishment in your kit!  

You can choose the option that best works for you!  Here's some additional fine print.

• I will not do any stamping or die cutting/punching from the featured set or bundle.  You will need the stamp set/bundle to complete your cards.  You can always substitute for products you already have. 
• My basket of cards is full of cards from past classes, cards featured on my blog and more!  Please note that the cards will be chosen randomly and may not coordinate with the featured stamp set/bundle. Envelopes will not be included for these five cards.
• Your order total must be at $50, $100 or $150 before tax and shipping and after rewards or Bonus Days coupons in one order (multiple orders cannot be combined).  
• Must be a resident of the USA to participate. The blog posts and videos will be available to everyone. 
• Each class will have designated dates to earn the class-check dates below.  Classes should ship the week following the cut off date of the class. You'll receive an email when they ship.

The top panel on the gatefold has this gorgeous image with the boat and lily pads.  The striped DSP mimics water which I love!  The DSP is from the Boho Vibes pack.  The DSP on the card base is from the Painterly Pears DSP which is on the Last Chance List-at the time of typing this the DSP was still available and heavily discounted! 

For the flowers on the lily pads I used Basic White Cardstock and some Stampin' Blends in Darling Duckling and Strawberry Slush to get the beautiful colors. 

When you open the card there's another die cut circle with the greeting.  LOVE!!! I added a few lily pads inside too to pull everything together.  Now...for the glaring mistake on this card. I thought it would be cute to stamp the books inside the card, it is adorable!  When assmbling the card.  I assembled it upside down and when you open the card the books are all upside down!  UGH! I didn't even notice until I was photographing my cards.  At that point it was too late to redo the card or photos.  You can see one of the upside down books in the photo below.  I still stand behind that the books are cute stamped inside the card-just make sure they're right side up. I have lots of tips on this card in my video below.

Peaceful Dock Bundle Class To Go Day 3-VIDEO Cactus

I'm super excited about today's card. I love it!  You'll have to forgive me, I don't know the term of the pole you tie your boat to on the dock.  Does it have a name?  As someone who gets seasick from being on nearly any boat you can imagine we don't spend a lot of time on the water. We also live in New Mexico and there isn't a lot of water to spend time on.  Back to the card.  The more and more I looked at the set and the dies, the more I kept seeing cactus.  Now cactus I do know about!  Maybe that's why I kept seeing it.  I used the pole stamp and dies to mold my cacti together. The lily pad flowers make great cactus flowers.  I couldn't love it more!  I think it really worked!

I used a combination of stamped 'cactus' and die cut ones. Check the video for tips on extending your dies to make longer pieces.  The rest of the card is pretty simple.  The embossing folder I used is the Soft Waves.  I used simple DSP from the Brights DSP package.

Today's card is so pretty!  The lily pad dies are some of my favorites in this bundle.  One of the reasons I love our bundles so much is because often they include amazing add on dies like these lily pads.  I used the same layout that I featured last week in my post with Karen Titus.  If you missed it you can check it out here. I used a blending brush and some Secret Sea Ink to lightly add some blue to the bottom of the label die to mimic water.

Where and how many lily pads and flowers you add is up to you.  As I say when I'm baking or cooking sometime 'measure with your heart'.  I used a variety of flowers in Lemon Lolly, Melon Mambo and Pretty In Pink. The lily pads and flowers are on the small side.  I used liquid glue to adhere mine (a couple are on Mini Dimensionals), you could use glue dots or even adhesive sheets too.

I wasn't sure this was a bundle I needed, but for some reason I was drawn to it over and over again and I finally gave in.  The cards this week for the Class To Go are A.MA.ZING!  One of my all time favorite classes to go!  The first card is very traditional, you could use it for a masculine card.  I used Stampin' Blends to add splatter to the background to mimic splashing water.  I used Two Toned Cardstock in Cloud Cover and Secret Sea for the Water.  I love the ombre look of it.
