Yay, let’s celebrate! It’s National Pink Flamingo Day (June 23). It’s a perfect day for me, a collector of all things flamingo. And, how fitting that there’s a brand-new stamp set (Birthday Song) that features flamingos (and walruses). The set is available July 1 with the release of Stampin’ Up!’s July Online Exclusives. Look for lots of other brand-new product including items for Halloween, fall, and Christmas.

When your online order total reaches $75 or more (before tax, shipping, and any redeemed rewards), purchase this stamp set for just $5. One per customer. Available while supplies last.

I enjoyed experimenting with different colors of the designer series paper with the creatures. Here are some additional examples.
The card above uses the same measurements as the featured card. The DSP is Pecan Pie (5 1/4 x 4) and Crumb Cake (other pieces. See measurements above.)
This card uses the black patterns from the Basics Painted Patterns 12 x 12 DSP.

I just returned from Stampin’ Up!’s annual incentive trip. This year, we took an Alaskan cruise. It’s such an honor to earn and take a trip like this. Less than 1 percent of demonstrators achieve this, but I’m so fortunate to be sharing and offering something I love.
On each trip, demonstrators are encouraged to bring a card to swap with other demonstrators. Even though 277 demonstrators took the trip, not all of them swap. And, from all of the swaps, we get a sampling of 15.
Today, I want to share the card I created for the swap. It uses a combination of Stampin’ Up!’s Balloon Festoon Bundle and the Playful Packaging Bundle. I really wanted to try to use the dies in a different way.
Measurements and Details
Petal Pi k cardstock base measuring 8 1/2 x 5 1/2, scored and folded at 4 1/4
Stamped dots from Balloon Festoon stamp set randomly with Petal Pink ink
Balloon from Balloon Festoon Dies die cut with Brights Painted Patterns 12 x 12 Designer Series Paper (Daffodil Delight dotted pattern)
Die cut two of the smaller scallop pieces (Playful Packaging Dies) from Bloom Boutique 12 x 12 Designer Series Paper (Hydrangea Hue pattern. The 2026-2028 In Color-Hydrangea Hue-Painted Patterns also works.) I trimmed about 1/2 inch off each of the flat sides before adhering to card base.
Sentiment (Balloon Festoon) stamped in Hydrangea Hue on Petal Pink cardstock, die cut with label from Stylish Shapes Dies
Hydrangea Hue ribbon
Rhinestone Basic Jewels
