Before we get to my card for today, I have to mention two things. First is that the Double Stampin’ Rewards!! Woohoo!! I love that Stampin’ Up! can do events like this now. The new rewards program gives them options for treating us all to extra rewards. So if you have items on your Wish List that are carrying over, or are on the Last Chance LIst, now is the time to order.
Secondly, and further down is the information, but there is a Starter Kit Promotion beginning on May 6 with the catalog launch. By joining Stampin’ Up! under this promotion, you receive $165.00 in products of your choice for $99.00! Woohoo!!
2 DAY DOUBLE STAMPIN’ REWARDS
TODAY’S CARD
The title of Cheers to You, is not just about the 2X Rewards, but also my card. There is an awesomely fun Suite in the upcoming Online Exclusives drop. It is the Celebratory Sips Suite. It contains gorgeous DSP, a stamp bundle, ribbon, embellishments, and a duo of the thin embossing folders. Oh My!!
STAMPS
I have used the stamp bundle which is Cheers & Sips Bundle. The Suite is all about summer drinks. And there is fruit to match. The paper has lemonade, wine, what can be a really loaded Bloody Mary type drink.
The drink I chose is a simple glass of wine with a strawberry garnish. It sounded good to me. 🙂 I placed the drink on a strip that is stamped with one of the leaves. It may be mint??? There are so many different drinks to make with this set that I cannot wait to continue playing. And what a perfect Summer set.
The sentiment is stamped using Basic Gray as the outlines of the drinks are not quite as bold. Then the sentiments are each fussy cut, or straight cut for the “to you”. And then added to the strip with thin cuts from Stampin’ Dimensionals.
PAPERS
This fun DSP is part of the Suite. It is the Celebratory Sips Designer Series Paper. The front of the different sheets are drinks or fruit, and the backs are more base prints in great colors. I chose this fun drinks piece and paired it with Blackberry Bliss for the card base. To the strip of Blackberry Bliss, I layered Old Olive, which was stamped tone on tone.
EXTRAS
The Bling for today is the only Extra. I have used the three different sizes of Strawberry Slush Flat Pearls. These are part of the 2025-2027 In Color Flat Pearls. Each of the five colors is in these three sizes. I love having the size option. But I decided to use all three since the DSP prints are quite large.

I am mixing old and new again today. Another Stamp Bundle that I loved from convention is going to be Live with the new Online Exclusives on May 6th. (Which is the same day the New Annual Catalog launches!)
STAMP& PUNCHES
This fun cookie jar is from the upcoming Sweet Jar Punch Bundle. I really love punches and this one cuts the cookie jar and the lid. Additionally there are a few different images for inside the jar. It is going to be a year round go to.
The cookie jar was stamped using Basic Beige Ink for the jar. (Sorry my photo got washed out when trying to clean up some things) And the lid was stamped using Blueberry Bliss Ink. I decided on chocolate chip cookies today. Which happens to be one of the images. The cookies are one stamp and the chips are a separate one. So I could have made my favorite, which are sugar cookies!
The sentiment is from the stamp set as well. It is also stamped with Blueberry Bushel. And is on a punch out from the Keeping Tabs Punch. I did this card for my club ladies and most cut the tab in half. I folded it over the two layers.
PAPERS
This paper may look familiar to you. It is one of the sheets from Mediterranean Blooms Designer Series Paper. This is the pack that has oranges and lemons on one side and blue tiles on the other. I have used this paper often and am thrilled to say it is carrying over.
The card base was pulled form the DSP. It is Night of Navy. As a surprise choice, even to me, I went with Misty Moonlight for the layer and the band for the cookie jar. It seemed to work best with the DSP, so who am I to argue.
EXTRAS
There are a few Extras on this card. First is the twine. This is a darker brown, when you can see the true color, to match the cookies. It is the darkest brown in the Naturals baker’s twine multi pack. And for bling, I used the Adhesive-backed Gold Hearts. These are in a few different sizes and are totally flat. Sadly they are on the Last Chance List. So do not hesitate to add these to your next order before it is too late.
DOUBLE REWARDS
Two days only, May 2-3, is Double Rewards. What a way to begin the new Rewards Program! Now is the time to really stock up on some of the Last Chance List. Or items that are Bundled in the Annual Catalog. Even if they are carrying over, they generally are no longer bundled. So you lose that 10% discount. Just food for thought!

We are only a week away from the launch of the next Annual Catalog and May Online Exclusives. I think you will love quite a lot from both of these new products. The card I have today is a peek at a bit of both.
And here is the super fun inside. It is my favorite!
STAMPS& DIES
This is the Paper Tags Bundle from the upcoming May Online Exclusives drop. I shared the tag previously on a card with the scalloped layer tag and a different sentiment. This is the smaller tag alone. I love both tags and the layering factor is a definite bonus.
The front sentiment is one that could be used for any celebration. The way the words are done is different like it should be on a sign. I love it. But my favorite is the inside sentiment. A paper hug is just so cute! I believe we had a similar stamp right after, or during covid. And better yet is the two Die shapes I used with it. I will admit that I did not think they layered. They are fairly close in size when you are looking at the dies themselves. I was so excited when I realized they did layer! My original plan was for this to be the front sentiment. But I could not make it work. It seems better here on the inside though.
PAPERS
This gorgeous jewel looking DSP is from the upcoming Annual Catalog. It is the Florals In Bloom Designer Series Paper. The floral on the opposite side is maybe my favorite of the package. But I saw these shades of blue / green and had to use it for this card.
To pull colors from the DSP, I went with Granny Apple Green for the card base and Summer Splash for the layer. It is not colors I would normally put together but now I love them. The tag on the front is Cloud Cover which is one of the new In Colors for 2025-2027. The sentiment is stamped in Summer Splash and shows up better than anticipated.
EXTRAS
There are two Extras today. First is the ribbon hanger for the tag. It is Summer Splash Ribbon that is simply looped through the heart cut out and draped behind the layers. For a different Bling, I went with another new one. This is the Shades of Green Hexagons. There are several different shades of green in hexagon shapes. This also has different sizes. These are part of the upcoming Turtle Suite in the new catalog.

I have been using retiring products of late. But today I have carryover and one new product to share. The new is a DSP that I think you will love. And it is perfect for Spring!
STAMPS
This great daisy stem seems to match the DSP perfectly. However they are not from the same Suite. In fact this daisy is a carryover from a couple of catalogs. I for one am happy it is still around. The set is named Lifetime of Love. It is stamped using Basic Gray for a softer outline. Then colored using Daffodil Delight, Mossy Meadow, and Calypso Coral Stampin’ Blends. The Calypso Coral is the center of the flower.
The fun scripted sentiment is from the Unbounded Love stamp set. It is another carryover. And it is a wonderful sentiment set. There is also a matching Die set, but I did not use that. The Celebrate is stamped using Mossy Meadow to carry on the green theme.
Dies
There are a couple of different Dies used here. First is the matching Die set for Lifetime of Love. It is no longer a bundle, but still a great addition. I debated on die cutting the flowers and having them raised. But opted to leave them just stamped on the layer. But I did die cut those little leaves as an added embellishment. They have fallen off and are peaking around the layers.
The second Die set is the fabulous Nested Essentials. I love this rounded rectangle the most. And there are several of them. These are the two largest of the rectangles. They are a great size for any layout, plus they have the adorable stitching around the edge.
PAPERS
This DSP probably looks new to you. And that is because it is New. It will be one of the May Online Exclusives releases. The name is Floral Impressions Designer Series Paper. I have used a front of one sheet and the back of another sheet. These stripes are special because it is more than just stripes. There is a little detail every so often along the lines.
The cardstock is of course pulled from the DSP. I went with Mossy Meadow for the base and background sentiment layer. Unusually for me I did not add a layer behind the DSP. Actually I did but it is hidden. When I do two pieces of DSP, I like to cut a Basic White piece the same overall size and adhere the DSP pieces to it. That helps them line up and makes adding to the base easy for getting the borders even. Just a tip that I use.
EXTRAS
Today’s Extra is only the bling. It is not a shiny bling though. These are the Faux Glass Dots. The pack has four different colors of earth tone faux glass dots in different sizes. These seemed proper for this card. And they are on the Last Chance List if you like them too.

QUICK REMINDER: Today is the last day for the Free Shipping on orders of $75.00 or more. I know I have to get an order in myself!
Today’s card is a sweet one. And it is a nod towards a fun new set that is in the upcoming Annual Catalog. If you know me, then you know I love the quirky animals that Stampin’ Up! has. Hint, Hint!
STAMPS
This fun turtle is my nod to an upcoming mega suite of products featuring some playful turtles. But this guy has always been one I am drawn to. He looks very shy to me. He is part of the Playing In The Rain stamp set, with matching Dies. Both are on the Last Chance List but still available and discounted.
To achieve a softer look for the shy turtle, I stamped him in Old Olive Ink and then colored with Old Olive, Lemon Lime Twist and some shading of Lemon Lolly Stampin’ Blends. He is not a stand out type guy.
The sentiment is from the all sentiment stamp set named Wonderful Thoughts. It is a great set to have on hand with smaller sentiments for any occasion. This little “Hello, Friend” just seemed perfect for my shy guy to say.
DIES
All of the Dies used are from the same great set. It is the Stylish Shapes Dies. This set includes layering squares, circles and banners. For this card I used the two largest of the Circle Dies for Mr. Turtle and his layer. And the smallest Banner Die for the little sentiment, They all have the little stitching around the edges which I love.
PAPERS
This card debuts, from me anyway, the Cloud Cover cardstock. This is a new InColor for 2025-2027. It is a soft blue/gray. I have paired it with two patterns from the Floral Delight Designer Series Paper. The listed coordinating colors mention Pool Party as the background for this floral pattern. When I placed the Cloud Cover with it, that seemed to match the shade better and it did match the little dots that are in the background. So I think it is a winner.
The textured green is the same for both the layer and the sentiment layer. It really pulls the green from the flower leaves as well as the turtle. And it actually works with the Cloud Cover as well. I think this will be a new favorite.
EXTRAS
There are two Extra today. I added a strip of Daffodil Delight 1/8 Ribbon around the two layers and beneath Mr. Turtle. It sort of ground him. The second Extra is bling, but a new one. This single hexagon is from the upcoming catalog also and is part of the turtle suite I mentioned in the beginning. They are called Shades Of Green Hexagons. There are a lot of them. The package contains several shades of green in a couple of sizes. I love that it is a new shape. Hopefully you will love them as well.

I have a fun card for you today. But before we get there, remember that the Free Shipping on orders of $75.00 or more is happening thru tomorrow. That is a great deal. Especially with all of the products on the Last Chance List.
Now for today’s card: I have paired a lot of new/upcoming products for a debut. Sadly that doesn’t give you much of a supply list, but I will update it once the products are available.
STAMPS& DIES
This fun tag is from the upcoming Paper Tags Bundle. It will be available in the May OnLine Exclusives release. When I saw this demonstrated at OnStage last month, I knew I had to have it. And I was even more surprised when I used it to make this card.
The way the tag stamps, and then Die cuts with the white edge, it makes it appear the White is embossed. But it is not. The detail is fabulous. Also in playing with the Dies, I found that the two tags layer, or are great individually. I began with the individual, and then realized they could layer. So there is my convoluted thinking process. LOL!!!
To create the tag I pulled the Strawberry Slush from the DSP. In case this color looks and sounds familiar, Strawberry Slush was a previous In Color. Now it has returned as a new 2025-2027 In Color.
PAPERS
This bright floral DSP is from another upcoming product. It is the Celebratory Sips Designer Series Paper. This is a perfect summer paper with not just these small flowers, but other sheets that have summery drinks on them. The Stamps and Dies are great as well.
The colors were all pulled from the DSP. I chose the Strawberry Slush, mentioned with the stamping, as the card base and the stamped tag color. Then opted for the deep Blackberry Bliss for the thin layer and the tag layer. I was really surprised how these colors paired so well.
EXTRAS
There are two Extras today. The little green bow is from the Pack Your Bags Twine 3 pack. It is the only item that is available right now. It is part of the fun suite of products named On The Go. It is in the Online Exclusives. If you like to travel please check this one out. It is available now.
The final Extra is bling of course. What I chose is the new 2025-2027 In Color Flat Pearls. These have a pearly shine to them. Plus each color includes three different sizes. I have used one of each and I especially love the ones that are flat. That makes mailing much simpler. The one I used is the Timid Tiger new color.
