Get together and stamp with others from around the world during Stampin’ Up!’s World Card Making Day event Saturday, October 1, 2022. This free event will be held virtually from 2 to 5 p.m. Mountain Time. Click here to find more information and get the link to register.
World Card Making Day is all about making beautiful, heartfelt cards. During the event, presenters will walk you through several projects, and you’ll create the cards right along with them. You’ll end up with new project ideas and some stunning new cards. (However, you’re welcome to just watch the presentations, and you’ll be able to access the recording later.)
To make the most of this experience, you can order the Cottage Rose Bundle from the 2022–2023 Annual Catalog, the Cottage Wreaths Bundle from the July–December 2022 Mini Catalog, or the Warm Welcome Bundle, which you can get early from the January–June 2023 Mini Catalog! If you want, you could even order all three bundles.
When you order one of these three bundles: Cottage Rose Bundle, Cottage Wreaths Bundle or Warm Welcome Bundle you’ll get a FREE gift of Iridescent Pearl Basic Jewels! Be sure to add item #158987 to get that freebie. Note that even if you order all three bundles, you’ll only receive one Iridescent Pearls gift.)
Warm Welcome Bundle Samples
I have no idea what kind of card Stampin’ Up! will make with this bundle on October 1. So I wanted to see what I could make with it. In this post, I share a few of the samples I created with the Warm Welcome stamp and the Welcome Home Dies. The included sentiments and images work well for a variety of occasions. It’s a perfect bundle to welcome someone to the family, to the neighborhood, to your home, to celebrate birthdays, to say congratulations, and more.
The item number to order is: #160704 and the cost is $50.25 for the bundle.

I hope you enjoy my samples, and I encourage you to participate in World Card Making Day. If you can’t watch October 1, you’ll be able to access the recording later.

Stampin’ Up!’s Season of Chic Bundle attracted my attention because it contains images and dies that can be used for all of the seasons. This makes it versatile–something I can use year round. It includes seashells for summer, leaves for fall, snowflakes for winter, and flowers for spring. Find it on pages 98 and 99 of Stampiin’ Up!’s 2022-2023 Annual Catalog.
The bundle includes the Season of Chic stamp set and the Chic Dies. The bundled price includes a 10 percent discount. And, the Texture Chic 12 x 12 Designer Series is a must-have item. I love the gold highlights in the sheets.
I grabbed this bundle from the shelf to create a birthday for a friend who loves the beach. The seashells images work perfectly as does the sentiment. I also added Petal Pink panel embossed with the Seashells 3D Embossing Folder.
With just a little bit of extra time to play, I created the two additional cards below with different elements from the suite.
The card above features a flower image, stamped and die cut.
And, this final card uses the “swoosh” element. It reminds me of a similar image from the Work of Art stamp set. I loved using it for backgrounds and tried it here. The Designer Series Paper above comes from the Design a Daydream 12 x 12 package. (Earn it free as a hostess. Ask me how!)

Although I’m just getting started playing with this bundle, I’m happy with this cute birthday card and coordinating treat packet. I selected the new 2022-2024 In Colors: Sweet Sorbet, Tahitian Tide, and Parakeet Party. (Starry Sky and Orchid Oasis round out this year’s new In Colors.)
I love that Stampin’ Up! offers a bunch of coordinating products to make creating easy and fun. Here are a few of the products I used to make the handmade card:
2022-2024 In Color cad stock
6 x 6 2022-2024 In Color Designer Series Paper Assortments
2022-2024 In Color 6 x 6 Glimmer Paper
Baker’s Twine Pack
Tahitian Tide ink
Stitched Rectangles Dies
Blending Brush
And, I had to include a cute treat packet made with some of the same supplies. Isn’t this super cute? I searched the grocery stores to find cherry flavored foods. The Mini Pocket Envelopes Dies make creating these a snap. Use a 5 1/2″ x 4 1/4″ inch piece of patterned party and cut with the die in the Stampini’ Cut & Emboss. Fold, apply some tear and tape, and it’s ready to decorate. These little holders are perfect for treats and gift cards. See this blog post for other examples using this die.

Stampin’ Up!’s 2022-2023 Annual Catalog presents a host of new awesome products, including the Sun Prints Suite. The suite includes the Nature’s Prints stamp set, Nature’s Prints Dies, Sun Prints 12 x 12 Designer Series Paper, and the Fern 3D Embossing Folder.
I love shades of blue, so this Designer Series Paper caught my eye immediately. It features Night of Navy, Pacific Point, and the new Starry Sky In Color.
Please enjoy the Sun Prints Card Samples I’ve created. And be sure to watch the YouTube Video (a Facebook live replay from May 5, 2022) at the end of this post.
The above card uses white heat embossing to create a stunning flower image.
The Sun Prints 12 x 12 Designer Series Paper steals the show here. Just add a sentiment and a ribbon, and you have a gorgeous handmade greeting card.
