What are In Colors?

In Colors are a collection of five new ink colors Stampin’ Up! releases each year to keep the palette fresh and exciting. Each set of In Colors lasts for two years. These colors help keep Stampin’ Up! on trend with current design, and they play well with the other current ink offerings.

Country Birdhouse Box

Country Birdhouse Box

Today, I’m sharing a fun supply box inspired by my friend and teammate, Gina. She demonstrated this box design at our team meeting. I just had to share the design with all of you. I love that you can store so many things in this handy box, such as cards, embellishments, adhesives, and more. And, you can make it with card stock. 

Be sure to watch the video below to see how this box comes together. I use the 2024-2026 In Colors and Stampin’ Up!’s Country Birdhouse Bundle for my box. (Just a quick note: Stampin’ Up!’s stamp set and die bundles are on sale for an additional 10 percent off through June 30, 2024.)

You’ll need two sheets of matching card stock measuring 8 1/4 x 9 3/4. Follow the scoring and cutting directions below. You can also follow along with the video.

Feel free to decorate your box with any patterned paper and embellishments. The card stock piece(Pretty in Pink) for the back of the box measures 6 x 5, with the DSP (Shy Shamrock) measuring 5 3/4 x 4 3/4. The card stock for the front of the box measures 6 x 2 3/4, with the DSP measuring 5 3/4 x 2 1/2.

How to Create a Fall Seasonal Frame

Stampin’ Up! products lend themselves perfectly to card making, memory keeping projects, treat packages, and even home decor. I created this fall seasonal frame to use as a decoration in my home.

(See this additional post featuring holiday frames. Do you prefer the traditional or whimsical?)

Here are some of the details about this fall-themed frame. Purchased at Ikea, the frame holds a 5 x 7 insert.

  • The bottom layer of Mango Melody card stock measures 5 x 7.
  • Next layer of Basic Black card stock measures 4 1/4 x 6 1/4 inches.
  • The patterned paper — Plaid Tidings — measures 4 x 6. (Note: This 6 x 6 Designer Series Paper is 15 percent off through October 31, 2020.)
  • Leaves cut with die from Gathered Leaves Dies in coordinating colors of (left to right): Cherry Cobbler, Cinnamon Cider, Mango Melody, and Cajun Craze.
  • Letters die cut in Basic Black card stock with Playful Alphabet Dies.
  • Ribbon is a 7-inch piece of Black Glittered Organdy.
  • Embellishments are the Holiday Rhinestones.

Think about all of the different holidays where you could create a seasonal frame!
