Inked Ocessions Paper Pumpkin

 Hello my stamping friend!

Did you see the April Paper Pumpkin kit? It is absolutely gorgeous!

I couldn’t wait to dive in and start creating some fun alternate designs. Here’s what I’ve been playing with:

✂️ Mix & Match Magic: I took two card bases, cut them into three sections, and mixed and matched the pieces for a fresh new look. Embellished with butterflies and ribbon for an extra touch!



For another design, I cut the middle portion of the card base, added it to a Basic White layer, and stamped a sentiment—simple but stunning!


My last card features a split-front design—I cut the front panel in half and adhered the pieces together, creating a lighter section at the top for the sentiment.


I still have tons of supplies left to play with, and the possibilities are endless!

2025-2026 Annual Catalog and Online Exclusives Paper Shares

 

Hello, my stamping friend!

I’m thrilled to announce my 2025-2026 Annual Catalog and Online Exclusives Paper Shares!

What is a Paper Share?
It’s the perfect way to try out all the exciting new Designer Series Papers (DSPs) without committing to full packs. I carefully cut the (12″ x 12″) papers into either 6″ x 6″ or 6″ x 12″ pieces, depending on your preference, so you’ll receive one of each gorgeous pattern. This helps you decide which papers you absolutely love and might want to invest in further. 

Paper Share Options
I’m offering two types of shares to suit different crafting styles:

  • 6″ x 12″

Each share will come beautifully organized in a special scrapbook paper storage envelope to keep your papers protected and ready for crafting!

This paper share includes only the NEW DSPs featured in the Annual Catalog. Many carryover papers from previous catalogs won’t be included, as they’ve already been part of my previous shares. You’ll easily spot the new ones in the catalog—they’re marked with the pink “N” icon! Additionally, I’ve included the Online Exclusive papers debuting on May 6 to make this share extra special.

Thankful Garden Card using Masks

 Hello, my stamping friend!

Have you checked out the new online release yet? The Thankful Garden Bundle was my immediate favorite—especially because it includes masks! If you're anything like me, Stampin' Up! masks are already a must-have. And when they coordinate with a bundle? That’s crafting perfection!

To get started, I chose two lovely images from the stamp set and decided to bring them to life with the masks. For my color palette, I kept it simple yet bold: Melon Mambo, Blueberry Bushel, and Garden Green inks.


Layering the colors was such a fun experiment! I played around with the intensity, adding just the right amount to each layer to create depth and dimension.

Here’s a quick card I crafted using this bundle—I’m so excited to share it with you:

Measurements: 

  • Pretty in Pink CS: 5 ½ x 8 ½”;
  • Basic White: 4 x 5 ¼”; a label; piece for die cutting 
  • Garden Green CS: piece for die cutting 
  • DSP: 3 7/8 x 3 7/8”; 
Instructions: 
  1. Stamp sentiment in Melon Mambo ink on the bottom of the basic white piece. Adhere DSP to the top. 
  2. Adhere to the card base. 
  3. Stamp a flower image in Memento black ink on basic white. Use masks and Melon Mambo ink with a blending brush to color the flower (you do not need to color the leaves). 
  4. Die cut a flower portion. Also die cut set of leaves from garden green cardstock. 
  5. Die cut a hexagon label from basic white. Add with dimensionals over the DSP. 
  6. Add flowers with dimensionals to the label. Adhere leaves. 
  7. Tie a bow from the ribbon, add with a glue dot below the flowers.
