Greetings my stamping friends. I don’t know about you, but I have had enough cold weather. It’s time for some warm, Spring temperatures that stay around for awhile.

Love Notes for Valentine’s Days

Posted on February 8, 2026 by Linda Tolson Yarbrough

Greetings my stamping friends. Remember when you were in Elementary school and it was Valentine’s Day and you couldn’t wait to see if that certain someone you had a crush on would drop a Valentine’s card into your collection box? Do they even still do this in school today?

I was filled with nostalgia the last few days when I was rummaging through my newer Stampin’ Up! products to see what I could create and share with you and stumbled across my unopened package of Love Notes 6×6 Mix & Match Designer Series Paper.

There are two designs (two sheets each) of 3″ x 3″ images that make perfect “love notes.” I will show you what I mean below.

First here are the two sheets of designs (front and back):

And here are my “love notes”:

First, I cut out the panels from the Designer Series Paper (all cuts will be at the 3″ mark). I then used the largest square die from the Stylish Shapes Dies and die cut each panel from the Designer Series Paper (finished pieces will then measure 2.75″ x 2.75″).

To create the 3″ x 3″ notecards, I used Basic White 12″ x 12″ cardstock. (One piece of 12″ x 12″ cardstock will make eight (8) notecards.) I cut the cardstock to 6″ x 12″, then scored with the 6″ side at the top at 3″. Then turn the cardstock in your paper cutter and cut at the 3″ mark so that you have four (4) 3″ x 6″ pieces. Fold at the score mark and you have your 3″ x 3″ notecard.

If you elect to make notecards/love notes for all of the images on both pieces of Designer Series Paper, you will need eight (8) pieces of 12″ x 12″ cardstock.

As for the envelopes I have used, these are retired and no longer available from Stampin’ Up! You should be able to find something comparable at a big box store or online.

If you have any questions regarding the design of this project, need help placing an Online order or anything else related to Stampin’ Up! in general, please contact me.

Thank you for stopping by today. I hope you leave here inspired to put stamps to ink to paper. Until next time, stamp on my friends.

Posted on February 1, 2026 by Linda Tolson Yarbrough

While waiting, I rummaged through my kits and found another non-stamping kit that I could assemble and share with you – Loveliest Wishes Kit.

This kit supplied gold glitter embellishments for just one of the cards, but I had just ordered and had on my desk a package of the new Pearlized Faceted Circles embellishments and the colors coordinated perfectly with the kit, so of course I added them to two of the cards.

Greetings my stamping friends.

Special Delivery – January 2026 Paper Pumpkin Kit

Posted on January 24, 2026 by Linda Tolson Yarbrough

Greetings my stamping friends. I hope you are all keeping warm and safe during this weekend’s ice storm that is affecting most of the US. We do not get this kind of weather often here in Texas so I, for one, have not been able to “keep warm” for several days as my husband likes it a little chillier in the house than I do. (Yes, he sleeps with both a floor stand-fan and the ceiling fan on at night!)

I have been working on the January 2026 Paper Pumpkin Kit – Special Delivery over the last few days. The theme of this month’s kit was Valentine’s Day. Since I already have my own special Valentine, I again made a change to one of the card designs from the suggested instructions. I hope you enjoy today’s share.

I know I have probably said this before, but this kit is my absolute FAVORITE so far! The cards are so amazing in real life, and you know I always add Wink of Stella to the die cut pieces from the kit (sadly it turned my white flowers on the last card gray). This time, it was the flower heads on each card. The change I made from the instructions in on the first card – while I used the suggested “Happy Valentine’s” stamp on one of the cards, I looked through my collection of Paper Pumpkin stamp sets for a “Happy Birthday” that was the appropriate size for the tag. The stamp set from the June 2025 Full of Charm kit provided me exactly what I needed.

NOTE: If you are a Paper Pumpkin subscriber and have this kit in hand to assemble when you have the chance, there is a big tip that will help with the collage card (the one with all of the postage stamp squares and rectangles. Those items are laid out exactly as they need to be attached to the card from. Do not remove them from the frame. Instead, stamp the two places, where indicated per the instructions, and then flip the entire piece over and attach dimensionals to the back of each of the die cuts. Remove the dimensional backings and attach the entire piece to the card from, aligning the top of both the card front and the card of die cuts at the time. Press to adhere the dimensionals. THEN, you can carefully remove the excess frame of the die cut piece, leaving behind just the die cuts and everything will be perfectly straight!

Here is the how-to video from Stampin’ Up! which will give you an idea of how to assemble the cars in the kit.

Thank you for stopping by today. I hope you leave here inspired to put stamps to ink to paper. Until next time, stamp on my friends.
