Published 2 months ago • 5 min read

Hello Reader,

​Yesterday’s sketch gets a fresh floral twist with the gorgeous Berry Botanical Vellum Specialty Designer Series Paper! These simple cards let the vellum do the heavy lifting, layering vibrant blooms over soft patterns for a design that’s both quick and eye-catching. The sentiment from the You’re the Best Stamp Set (one of My Favorite Things!) adds the perfect finishing touch.

Even better? The Berry Botanical Vellum Specialty Designer Series Paper is the May Product of the Month and can be yours for just $5 with a qualifying $75 order (while supplies last). It’s a beautiful way to add color, texture, and elegance to your handmade cards—without adding complexity.

The NEW Stampin' Up! Hot Foil System is AVAILABLE, bringing beautiful foil accents and elegant shine to your handmade cards and paper crafting projects.

If you've been curious about hot foiling, this is the perfect time to jump in. Designed exclusively for Stampin' Up! products, the new system makes it easy to add stunning metallic details with professional-looking results.

NOT COMPATIBLE WITH THE RETIRED BLACK STAMPIN' UP! BIG SHOT. The Stampin’ Hot Foil System does not fit or work with the retired black Stampin' Up! Big Shot, it will only work in the current Stampin' Up! Stampin' Cut & Emboss Machine (Standard). Although the machines use similarly sized cutting platforms, the Hot Foil System is approximately 1/8" too wide to pass through the Big Shot. Please do not attempt to force it through a Big Shot, as this could damage the machine or the Hot Foil System.

Hello Reader, Yesterday’s exclusive card sketch comes to life with the charming A Stitched Season Designer Series Paper! I love how the quilt-inspired birds and trees create a cozy, homespun Christmas look without requiring lots of extra stamping or embellishing. I cut 4 of the sweet bird designs directly from the patterned paper and arranged them according to the sketch. A Real Red card base, crisp Basic White layers, and the Real Red 1/4" Stitched Ribbon bring everything together...
