Earlier this week, Stampin’ Up! released a brand-new offerings of Online Exclusives. See them online here. Or click this link to view a flyer. I ordered the Jar of Joy Photopolymer Stamp Set first! I love playing with new paper crafting goodies, and I created a host of fun Christmas cards, just in time for Christmas in July.
In a previous post, I shared a host of holiday card examples featuring the Jar of Joy stamp set and the punch. I played with more traditional Christmas colors for those. See the post here.
For today’s card, however, I chose a more non-traditional approach. I use the colors of Bubble Bath, Petunia Pop, and Smoky Slate. Are you a traditionalist with a lean toward red and green? Or do you prefer non-traditional Christmas colors?

These details help you get started:

At almost three-inches in height, Stampin’ Up!’s Party Alphabet Dies offer so many options for paper crafting — from creating cards to banners to scrapbooks and more.
In today’s post, I share a handful of handmade card samples using these awesome dies. I like the idea of a monogram card. How much fun is this? And, while unusual for me, no stamping is involved.
Purchase the Party Alphabet Dies as a bundle with the Party Banner Dies and save 10 percent.
Details and Measurements
I offer a few measurements and product information to help you get started:
Darling Duckling cardstock base measuring 11 x 4 1/4, scored at 5 1/2. Die cut with the fifth largest die from the Party Banners Dies. Be sure to watch the video below to see how to create this card base using the Party Banners Dies.
A piece of Secret Sea Designer Series Paper from the 2025-2027 In Color Designer Series Paper pack die cut with the sixth largest die from the Party Banners Dies measuring 5 1/4 x 4

Make a stack of these to give to a friend, or create some to use for your personal stationery. With Stampin’ Up!’s large selection of patterned papers, the options are many.
Here’s another fun card using the Party Alphabet Dies and the Party Banner Dies. This card features a Pool Party banner embossed with the Dotted Circles Embossing Folder as well as a piece of the Turtle-Y Awesome Designer Series Paper.
