What's New September 2026

Happy September! And Happy Labor Day weekend! I hope that you are staying comfortable with the heat and humidity that returned this week and fortunately looks like it ending. Unfortunately it brought some severe weather warnings and some intermittent internet issues. We did not have any damage locally, but about an hour from here it is my understanding that there were two confirmed tornados. I hope you did not experience any weather related problems. It has been a take it slow kind of time around here which is not good when I think about the preparations needed to be done for the winter months, but I am hoping I can get many things done this weekend.

Grab your favorite beverage and shall we look at what Stampin' Up! has for us this September?

I hope that you are enjoying your summer and are finding time to fit everything in. As usual I have been very busy around the house and with the kittens. I had to defrost my refrigerator because it was getting louder. That was an all day event as hidden ice kept melting and leaving me pools of water to clean up. Since then though it runs so quietly that I have to look at the display to confirm it is running. We treated ourselves to take out after all of that work.

What's New August 2026

Hello! My theme of the year remains in place. How is it August already? As they say, time flies when you are having fun (or just living life). I hope you do not feel like the summer is passing too quickly for you. Since I am getting a late start posting August news, I'll jump right in.

What's New July 2026

Happy July! I hope you had a wonderful Independence Day.

As I write this I am listening to the fireworks my neighbors are shooting off and watching Disney Celebrates America while I try to stay cool and away from the bugs outside.

There are a few Stampin' Up! updates to share with you.

Product of the Month

Begonia Belle Stamp Set (168592) 

The Product of the Month is a gorgeous two-step stamp set. This set is just $5 with a $75 purchase (before tax and shipping). This stamp set is available while supplies last and it is so beautiful that I think this may sell out fast.

Kit Collections

Two new Kit Collections were released. An album and a card kit.

Daisy Days Kit

The Daisy Days Kit (168670) makes a 28 page mini album. An album, adhesive, instructions and precut images and sentiments are included as well as printed pockets and acetate sheets.

Gilded Gallery Kit

The Gilded Gallery Kit (168667) makes 10 cards and there is an included stamp set and Peaceful Pine Classic Stampin’ Spot which you can use on future projects.

I hope the worst of our hot weather is behind us, but I fear that with so much of the summer ahead, we might be fighting the scorching heat again. I'm sure I have said this before...I would prefer cooler temperatures because I have much better solutions for keeping warm than I do keeping cool.

Take care and have a fabulous July!

Happy Independence Day

Hello! I hope you are finding great ways to stay safe during the heat wave we have endured leading up to the Fourth of July. I have been taking things really slow to try to beat the heat and am quite a bit behind.

Since I have been quiet, I thought I would share some Independence Day cards I created not too long ago.

Independence Day cards

USA 250 cards

I learned that Creative Kindness put out a call for donations of Fourth of July cards. Creative Kindness was collecting cards to send to organizations that give cards to Veterans (they also collect cards for other occasions and organizations - I encourage you to check out their website).

I shopped my stash for supplies to create the cards. Using their suggested sentiments, I created stars and sentiment strips using Cricut Design Space and my Cricut Maker. I also cut the pilot-like wings from Daily Art Hub with my Cricut Maker. I also used dies, stencils (and dies to create a temporary stencils), embossing folders, mists/sprays and silver foil cardstock to create the cards.

I hope you have a wonderful and safe 4th!

Free Shipping from Stampin' Up! June 11-13, 2026

In the past orders had to be opened during the Free Shipping window to be eligible for free shipping. I do not see this criteria listed in the Promotion Details for the June 2026 Free Shipping offer, but I think it is probably best to wait until June 11 at 2am ET to add items to a cart.

Prepaid 3-, 6-, or 12-month Paper Pumpkin subscriptions and month-to-month subscriptions do not qualify for free shipping, but Paper Pumpkin subscribers can purchase refills, past kits and add-ons that do qualify toward free shipping.

Since Craft Classes do not have a shipping cost, purchasing a Craft Class will not contribute to the qualifying amount for free shipping.

As a reminder, coupon codes and Stampin’ Rewards will lower your order’s retail amount. If you are planning to use a coupon or rewards, please double-check your pre-tax total before finalizing your purchase. Orders must meet the qualifying amount to be eligible for free shipping.

Happy crafting!

What's New June 2026

Hello! It is June, how can that be? I am stunned that the year is approaching half over. It has been busier than normal for me lately and I have been falling asleep with my laptop at the ready, but I cannot post when I am resting my eyes. It does not help that the kittens have been waking me up regularly before 5am. Rusty has a new trick that scares me. He chases his tail at the top of the cat tree, but instead of going round and round he goes down through the opening and up the outside. I think I need to invest in air bags to place around the base of the cat tree. Either that, or maybe a hammock that stretches the width of the room.

There is a bit of Stampin' Up! news to share this month.

Paper Pumpkin

June 2026 Paper Pumpkin Bikes & Blooms Kit

The subscription period to purchase the June 2026 Bikes & Blooms Kit ends on June 10. If you would like to subscribe to Paper Pumpkin to receive this kit, be sure to make your changes soon.

The Bikes & Blooms Kit created nine cards with silver details.

• Makes 9 cards: 3 each of 3 designs with 9 coordinating envelopes
• Silver foil and precut paper pieces
• Silver butterfly embellishments and linen thread
• Coordinating colors: Calypso Coral (Classic Stampin’ Spot), Crushed Curry, Lost Lagoon, Misty Moonlight, Old Olive, Pecan Pie

Paper Pumpkin subscribers can also shop the exclusive Wonderful Scenes Dies.

Wonderful Scenes Dies - Paper Pumpkin Coordinating Add-on

The Wonderful Scenes Dies are only available while supplies last.

New Product of the Month

Wild Bunch Stamp Set

The June 2026 Product of the Month is the Wild Bunch Stamp Set. The timing is perfect because I am seeing Highland Cows everywhere. And who doesn't like a Koala, Penguin or Snail?

The Wild Bunch Stamp Set is an exclusive product available for only $5 when you spend $75 or more in a single order while supplies last (some restrictions apply, e.g. I believe using rewards can make your order total less than $75). 

Last Chance List Updated

The Last Chance section of the website was updated. There are some great products there - I'm sad I do not have more space and an unlimited budget.

New Kits

Two new cardmaking kits were added to the Kits Collection of the website. They are Washes of Gratitude and Shaded Petals. Kits come with everything you need to create the cards as shown, including adhesives, but feel free to add your personal touch.

Washes of Gratitude has a lovely watercolor look and does not require any stamping; the sentiments are pre-printed. I was thinking that a shimmer brush on some of the floral die cuts would be lovely. Or, ink the white pieces with Versamark ink and your choice of embossing powder.

Shaded Petals comes with two Stampin' Spots and two sponge daubers so you can ink blend the petals. This kit also does not require stamping.

Craft Class Available for Purchase

The latest craft class, Scenic Coast, was just added to the Craft Class page. In the digital video class you will create four projects with the Scenic Coast Suite Collection and other select products (sold separately).

Despite being wide awake since I fell asleep after watching the news, I'd better try to go to sleep. The kittens may start trying to wake me in three short hours. I am looking forward to them outgrowing this. I hope that I to not have to wait until the days get shorter.

Have a great June 2026!
