Springtime Scenes and some Last Chance Favorites

Hello Crafty Friends!  I hope your weekend is off to a good start!  Today I'm sharing the projects that I made on Thursday night featuring the Springtime Scenes bundle, along with some of my favorite things that were recently added to the Last Chance list.  There were a LOT of products added to the Last Chance list, as the current 2025-2026 Annual Catalog comes to a close.  Anything that is Last Chance is available while supplies last...so don't dawdle if there is something you want.

The Springtime Scenes bundle was released with the March 2026 Online Exclusives.  I love the little ladybug and flower accents.  I encourage you to use whatever ladybug/cricket/bee/critter and flowers that you might have to copy my designs.

Just a reminder that I am generally Live on-line every Thursday at 8:00pm ET.  I stream to BOTH YouTube and Facebook simultaneously, but I recommend viewing on YouTube.   

If you are not able to catch me live, you can watch over on YouTube.  If the picture does not appear below, you can click HERE to get to it.

First project is a fun, light spring-y feel card where I brought in the Terrific Toadstools stamps and Beautiful Bokeh designer series paper - both are in the Last Chance products.  I added some die-cut leaves, along with the hand-cut toadstools.  I colored my ladybugs with Bubble Bath and Fresh Freesia - you don't always have to use traditional colors!

Paper Measurements:

• Fresh Freesia:  5 1/2" x 8 1/2", scored at 4 1/4"
• Beautiful Bokeh DSP:  4" x 5 1/4"
• Basic White:  4" x 5 1/4", for inside of card
• Basic White:  maybe half a sheet/scraps to stamp and cut all toadstool pieces, ladybugs, and greeting
• Soft Sea Foam:  scraps to die-cut leaves

Trying to show you all the SHIMMER that I put on the ladybugs and toadstools.

Finish off with some Rainbow dots in Fresh Freesia, Bubble Bath, and Lemon Lolly.

Stamps:  Springtime Scenes Bundle, Terrific Toadstools

Ink: Fresh Freesia, Lemon Lolly, Bubble Bath, Soft Sea Foam, Crumb Cake, Gray Granite, NEW Basic Black

Paper:  Fresh Freesia, Basic White, Beautiful Bokeh Designer Series Paper

Other:  Bubble Bath and Fresh Freesia Stampin' Blends markers, Rainbow Dots, Clear Shimmer brush

Next is an interesting fold - just the middle panel opens up.  In the video, I did talk about some changes that you could make if you don't like the middle panel cut separately.  I love all of the wood print papers available!  I brought in the Lasting Linen stamp on this one, and went with die-cut ladybugs.  I like the looks of those!

I cut the front of this card in 1 1/4" from each side, up to the card fold, then glued those flaps down.  Add some dsp.  

The leaf circle is cut from the Natural Hues Textured Specialty paper.  This is really neat to work with.  It feels like hand-made paper, but not AS lumpy.  Still too lumpy and uneven to actually stamp on (in my opinion), but great to use with die-cuts.

See how the middle panel is the only part that opens up.

Paper Measurements:

• Pecan Pie:  5 1/2" x 8 1/2", scored at 4 1/4"
• Cut in 1 1/4" from each side, UP to that score mark
• Wood Grain Wonders DSP:  (2) 1" x 4"
• Pecan Pie:  2 5/8" x 4"
• Basic White:  2 5/8" x 4"
• Natural Hues Textured Specialty paper:  enough to die-cut that leaf circle
• Basic Black/Real Red:  scraps to die-cut ladybug pieces
• Pecan Pie: scrap to stamp/hand-cut greeting

I finished off with the ONE lonely ladybug that I had left.

Stamps:  Simply Said, Lasting Linen Background

Ink:  Basic Black

Paper: Pecan Pie, Basic Black, Real Red, Basic White, Wood Grain Wonders DSP, Natural Hues Textured Specialty Papers

Other:  Springtime Scenes Dies, Ladybug Garden Epoxy shapes

My third project is a fun tri-fold card, combining floral and wood grain papers.  I love this fold - it uses a 5 1/2" x 11" piece of cardstock for the base.  I added plenty of die-cut white flowers along the edge - have some going OVER the edge, and not in a perfectly straight line.  It really makes a beautiful border.

Paper Measurements:

• Blueberry Bushel:  5 1/2" x 11", cored at 3 3/8", and 7 5/8"
• Garden Poetry DSP:  3 1/8" x 5 1/4"
• Wood Grain Wonders DSP:  3 1/8" x 5 1/4"
• Basic White:  4" x 5 1/4", for inside of card
• Basic White:  about a half sheet to die-cut lots of flowers
• Basic White/Blueberry Bushel:  scraps to stamp/layer greeting

Stamped some leaves from Natural Botanicals on the Wood Grain Wonder dsps, just to give it some interest.

Stamps:  Springtime Scenes Bundle, Natural Botanicals, Notes of Spring (Product of the Month, Mar 2026)

Ink:  Blueberry Bushel, Early Espresso, Crumb Cake

Paper:  Blueberry Bushel, Basic White, Garden Poetry DSP, Wood Grain Wonders DSP

Other:  Streaked Dots

My final project uses all of the 2025-2027 In Colors, along with two fun "spring" embossing folders - Lazy Daisy and Ladybug Picnic.   I embossed some Darling Duckling and Strawberry Slush cardstock, then ran my White Craft ink pad across the raised up bits.  Swipe the edges too.  If you wanted this white to really stand out, you could then add white embossing powder and heat emboss it.

Everything else is die-cuts from all the In Colors.  

Paper Measurements:

• Secret Sea:  5 1/2" x 8 1/2", scored at 4 1/4"
• Darling Duckling:  4" x 5 1/4", embossed with Lazy Daisy folder
• Strawberry Slush:  4" x 5 1/4", embossed with Ladybug Picnic folder
• Basic White:  4" x 5 1/4", for inside of card
• Basic White/Darling Duckling/Cloud Cover/Timid Tiger/Secret Sea:  scraps to die-cut all the bits and pieces

Finish with some In Color Flat Pearls in the flower centers.

Stamps:  Simply Said

Ink:  White Craft, Secret Sea

Paper: Secret Sea, Cloud Cover, Timid Tiger, Darling Duckling, Strawberry Slush, Basic White

Other:  Springtime Scenes Dies, Lazy Daisy & Ladybug Picnic embossing folders, In Color Flat Pearls

I hope you found some inspiration in these projects!  This coming Thursday, I'll be using up the rest of my Beach Time Scrapbooking Workshop Kit along with the Boardwalk Beach papers that I have to make some fun summer-ish projects.  I'll probably also throw in the Shell Collecting stamps that are now on the Last Chance list. 

Thanks for visiting, and Happy stamping!

Projects featuring the Lovely and Beautiful papers!

Happy Easter friends!  I really should be heading to bed soon, but I do want to share these projects with you all.  I spent most of today finalizing all of my tax paperwork (doesn't look like a good SU year!  doh!), but I wanted to get into my craft room and put some finishing touches on these projects and share.  

Thursday night was all about creating with the Lovely & Beautiful Designer Series papers.  NOTE:  They are back in stock now!  Get 'em while they're hot!  They are part of the Lovely & Beautiful Suite, which is in the January-April 2026 Catalog...so they won't be around forever.  I am very surprised that these gorgeous papers are NOT in the Last Chance list.  I suspect that's an error, because they generally don't keep papers around like that...especially when they have an OUTGOING In Color (Peach Pie) in them.  

I had a 1/4 pack of this paper to work with.  I was in the Paper Share for the Jan-Apr catalog myself.  Between these projects and a BONUS Mini Album base, I used nearly every scrap of paper that I had.  Winning!  That's what I love to see!  WE all need to use our papers folks.  I hope you love what I've created.

Just a reminder that I am generally Live on-line every Thursday at 8:00pm ET.  I stream to BOTH YouTube and Facebook simultaneously, but I recommend viewing on YouTube.   

If you are not able to catch me live, you can watch over on YouTube.  If the picture does not appear below, you can click HERE to get to it.

First up is a Tri-Panel Arched card, and it fits in a medium envelope!  I used the largest two sizes of the Everyday Arches dies.  Cut all of those panels, and glue to a Petal Pink base to make the card.  I used butterflies, but you could use any flower, bird, butterflies, dragonflies...any flying thing to go with this card.

Paper Measurements:

• Petal Pink base:  3" x 8 1/2", scored at 4", 8"
• Petal Pink base:  3" x 4"
• Petal Pink arches:  (3) 4 1/4" x 5 1/4", cut with largest die
• Lovely & Beautiful DSP:  (2) 3 5/8" x 5", cut with second largest die
• Basic White:  3 5/8" x 5", cut with second largest die
• Gold Foil:  scraps to die-cut butterflies

Lighting wasn't great when I took these pictures at 10:30pm...but you get the idea.

Top-ish view, standing up.

Finish off with some Brass Butterflies and then sequins from an old ephemera kit.

Stamps:  Simply Said, Beautiful Butterflies

Ink: Old Olive

Paper:  Petal Pink, Basic White, Gold Foil, Lovely & Beautiful Designer Series Paper

Other:  Everyday Arches dies, Beautiful Butterflies dies, Brass Butterflies, Expressionsin Ink Ephemera pack

Next up is a fold that I'm calling a High-Low Double Dutch Door.  I saw it last week, but didn't catch the name of the fold.  I think it was from On Y Go Stamping.  It ends up being a triple panel card.  You will need to watch the video to see how to cut the Peach Pie and Fresh Freesia base pieces.

Open the left side...

Then open the right side, and you can write in the middle.

Paper Measurements:

• Base #1, Peach Pie:  5 1/2" x 8 1/2", scored at 4 1/4".  
• Base #2, Fresh Freesia:  5 1/4" x 8", scored at 4"
• DSP #1:  3 1/4" x 4"
• DSP #2:  3 3/4" x 3 3/4"
• Basic White:  3 3/4" x 5"
• Fresh Freesia:  scrap to die-cut circle with Spotlight on Nature dies
• Peach Pie:  2 3/8" circle
• Fresh Freesia & Basic White:  2" circles
• Basic White:  1 3/4" circle
• Basic White:  scrap to stamp/die-cut butterfly

Again, I added butterflies.   Finished off with some Party Dots and Brass Butterflies

Stamps:  Simply Said, Beautiful Butterflies

Ink:  Peach Pie, Fresh Freesia

Paper: Peach Pie, Fresh Freesia, Basic White, Lovely & Beautiful DSP

Other:  Spotlight on Nature dies, Beautiful Butterflies dies, 2 3/8"/2"/1 3/4" Circle punches, Brass Butterflies, Party Dots, Clear Shimmer brush

Third project is a gift bag created from a full 6" x 12" piece of the paper!  I added a cardstock handle, and then gold-embossed a butterfly to put on the front.  I'm not sure who/what occasion I'm going to use this bag for yet, so I didn't put any words/greetings on it.  Finished bag size is 4 1/4" wide x 4 1/2" tall x 1 1/2" deep.

Paper Measurements:

• Lovely & Beautiful DSP:  6" x 12".   Pay attention to the direction of your pattern.  You want it going landscape.
• Score on the 12" side at 4 1/4", 5 3/4", 10", 11 1/2"
• Turn your paper to the RIGHT one turn, and score at 1 1/2"
• Fresh Freesia handle:  1 716" x 11"
• Vellum:  scrap to stamp/gold-emboss/die-cut largest butterflie

Add some Pearlized Faceted Circles to finish.  Better picture with the light.

Stamps:  Beautiful Butterflies

Ink:  Versamark

Paper: Fresh Freesia, Vellum cardstock, Lovely & Beautiful DSP

Other:  Beautiful Butterflies dies, Pearlized Faceted Circles, Gilded Sparkle embossing powder (Brutus Monroe)

Last thing that I made is a card and matching envelope.  WARNING:  I messed up the envelope during the live video, so I'm giving you correct measurements and pictures.  The concept of how to build the envelope is the same as I showed in the video...I just had my measurements wrong.  

The card is very simple.  I took the gold foile/white piece of DSP and ink bended some colors on to the flowers/leaves.  Then I stamped/die-cut a few butterflies and added those.  Bold greeting strip is layered and glued down flat.

Paper Measurements:

• Fresh Freesia:  5 1/2" x 8 1/2", scored at 4 1/4"
• Lovely & Beautiful DSP:  4" x 5 1/4"
• Basic White:   4" x 5 1/4"
• Peach Pie:  1 7/8" x 5 1/4"
• Basic White:  1 5/8" x 5 1/4"
• Basic White:  scrap to stamp/die-cut butterflies

For the envelope - 

• Fresh Freesia:  5 1/2" x 7 1/2".  Score 3 sides at 1/2".  Score 1" from top.  Cut corners according to this picture.
• DSP:  4 1/2" x 6"

Fold in flaps/gussets and apply glue.

Glue DSP directly over top.  Punch half a circle at the top.

Stamps:  With You in Mind, Beautiful Butterflies

Ink:  Peach Pie, Fresh Freesia

Paper: Fresh Freesia, Peach Pie, Basic White, Lovely & Beautiful DSP

Other:  Beautiful Butterflies dies, Party Dots (Peach Pie), Rainbow Dots (Fresh Freesia)

For the GRAND FINALE - I showed this Mini Album base at the start of the video.  I used THREE 6" x 12" pieces of the DSP to make this book.  Same concept as the Beach Time Mini that I made last week, but with one less piece of paper.  I did not put the closure on, or anything yet.  Just this base.  I'll file this away in my pile of mini albums - I love it!!!  I love all of these gorgeous prints together, and that you get to see both sides of every piece!

I bound the pages together today with gold/white baker's twine and a 3-hole pamphlet stitch.  Then I rounded the corners.  It's ready to be worked on at a later date.  :)

This Thursday (4/9/2026), I'll be playing with the Springtime Scenes bundle.  It's part of the MARCH 2026 Online Exclusives.  I got it so I could make my OnStage swaps with something new, and then having done anything else with it.  I like it though, so let's get busy and make some stuff with it!

Thanks for visiting, and Happy stamping!

Friends of Unity April 2026 Blog Hop - Earth Day/Recycle

Welcome to the Friends of Unity Blog Hop for April 2026!  Our theme this month is Earth Day/Recycle - take that cue however you want.  Make an Earth Day card, or use some recycled bits on your project!

I incorporated a ripped up piece of cardboard box - rip the top layer right off to reveal the ridges inside - and a piece of rope/twine that came with one of my Unity packages.

 

The base is a Graphic 45 Square Tag.  I stamped directly on it and colored in with various alcohol markers.  Hit all the flowers with a Clear Shimmer brush.

Add a ripped piece of green Alcohol Ink Papers to the edge, and then glue on the cardboard and greeting.

Here's a list of everything I used:

Stamps: Where Butterflies Wait (Unity Stamp Co)

Ink:  Midnight (Catherine Pooler)

Paper:  Rainbow Alcohol Ink papers (Unity Stamp Co)

Other:  Graphic 45 Square Tag, Dotted Burlap trim, rope/twine, Rhinestones, alcohol markers, Clear Shimmer brush

You probably got here from Jenni's post.  Your next stop will be to Joyce's page!  Please hop through everyone's blogs when you have some time.

Thanks for hopping along with us!  If you comment as Anonymous, please leave your name so we know who leaves some love.  

If you're interested in playing along, create your card and head over to the Unity Show & Tell Facebook group and share your creation. https://www.facebook.com/groups/unitystampco

Beach Time Two-Sheet Mini Album

What a fun project!  Original idea for this Two-Sheet Mini Album is from Michelle Allen @ACreativeOperation.  She's on the Design Team for Country Craft Creatios, and she makes AMAZING projects.  I encourage you to find her on YouTube and check out her tutorials.  

The original idea called for two sheets of 12" x 12" double-sided papers.  I changed it up a wee bit and used different 6" x 12" pieces.  I used the Beach Time Scrapbooking Workshop Kit for ALL papers, die-cuts, and stickers.  I'll create using the left-overs from the kit another time.

Finished album size is 6" tall x 7 3/4" wide.  You will need to either pamplet-stitch the book together, or use a long stapler.

Just a reminder that I am generally Live on-line every Thursday at 8:00pm ET.  I stream to BOTH YouTube and Facebook simultaneously, but I recommend viewing on YouTube.   

If you are not able to catch me live, you can watch over on YouTube.  If the picture does not appear below, you can click HERE to get to it.

I'm going to share all of the measurements first, then add a few pictures of pages. Not every page, but some.  

TT CS = Two-Tone CS

As far as the photo mats go - you can use either the TT CS, or DSPs from the kit.  Or use regular cardstock from your stash.

Now how about some pictures?  Again, this is just a few of the inside pages.

The only materials I used to make this were the Beach Time Scrapbooking Workshop Kit, Linen Thread, and some Party Dots on the front cover.  FOR REAL.

I'll flip through the whole album at the start of my video this week, so you can see all of the pages.

I LOVE this little book!

Thanks for visiting, and Happy stamping!

OnStage 2026 - Make and Takes and a fun Mini Album project

Hello Crafty Friends!  I'm putting my GIVEAWAY picture up front and center for this blog post, because I don't want you to miss the opportunity to win it!  You can either click on the picture above, OR click HERE.  Both will take you to my blog post that has the rules/requirements for entering.  Entries close March 31, 2026, so you've got just over a week to put in for your chance to win this stamp set and glue holder that I received at OnStage20206!

Now let's talk about this past Thursday night.  This was a LONG video.  I shared news and announcements that I learned at OnStage, I showed all the amazing SWAPS that I got, I showed products that we received, I showed Make & Takes that we had (but I had not yet finished), and then we made a little Mini Album at the end.

This post is all about sharing the projects that I finished - Make and Takes and the cute Mini Album!  I hope you enjoy them.

Just a reminder that I am generally Live on-line every Thursday at 8:00pm ET.  I stream to BOTH YouTube and Facebook simultaneously, but I recommend viewing on YouTube.   

If you are not able to catch me live, you can watch over on YouTube.  If the picture does not appear below, you can click HERE to get to it.

First up is the Make & Takes from Friday's OnStage activities.  I've included the packaging so that you could see how they intended these two cards to go.   The only thing that I did WHILE I was OnStage was the coloring in of these panels.

Pink one up close.  You can see that I added a little bit of Pretty in Pink ribbon and some rhinestones.

I wanted to die-cut numbers (for a special birthday coming up), and the Bubble Bath Shimmer paper that I have was too light, so I took my Dark Pretty in Pink Stampin' Blend and colored directly on the shimmer paper before I die-cut those numbers out.

Highland Heather card up close.  I added some Metallic Gems, Brass Butterflies, and a ruffle of Gold Mesh ribbon.

Stamps:  Sending Salutations (NEW, coming in the May-Aug 2026 catalog)

Ink: Onyx (Versafine)

Paper:  Pretty in Pink, Highland Heather, Basic Black, Basic White, Artisan Sketched Garden DSP (also NEW, coming in the May-Aug 2026 catalog), Pastels Shimmer paper (Bubble Bath)

Other:  Playful Alphabet dies, Stampin' Blends (I can't remember which colors we used), Pretty in Pink ribbon, Basic Rhinestones, Gold Mesh ribbon, Brass Butterflies, Metallic Gems

Saturday's Make & Takes were a set of Notecards with Envelopes.  The objective of these make and takes was for us to use some of the new 12" x 12" Stencils.  One stencil has this water pattern, and the other has little dots/stripes.  I didn't realize there were two card sets in this kit, so I only stenciled pieces for one.  SO...when I went to actually finish these yesterday, I split the stenciled pieces up and did some stamping to make up for it.  :)

I used the Shell Collecting stamps to stamp backgrounds, and then hand-cut a few pieces for one of the cards.

This one used the stenciled notecard, with two stamped strips.  Added a piece of the Ephemera pack that was included in our Make & Take kit too.

This one got a stamped background, along with the two stenciled strips which I RIPPED the edges.  I added the three hand-cut shells, along with another greeting from the ephemera kit.  I did go back and add Clear Shimmer brush to all of the hand-cut shells AFTER I took this picture.  Just imagine how shimmery and pretty they are.

I finished both cards with some Riverside Irregular Pearls.  White on the first, and Lost Lagoon on the second.

Stamps:  Shell Collecting

Ink:  Crumb Cake, Lost Lagoon, Pool Party

Paper: Basic White Notecards with envelopes, Basic White

Other:  Sincerely Noted Mix & Match Ephemera pack (NEW, coming in May-Aug 2026 catalog), Riverside Irregular Pearls

This FUN Mini Album is 4" x 6" finished, and uses just one 12" x 12" piece of DSP to make the base.  Add whatever other cardstock or doo-dads you want to finish.  I'll do a walk-through of this finished project at the start of this Thursday's (3/26) video.  It turned out SUPER CUTE!

I ended up printing some tiny pictures on my Sprocket printer.  I love that thing for fun projects like this!

NOTE:  This paper is retired.  I just pulled it out to make my prototype, but then I liked it so much I made it my finished piece.

This is just the first inside page that has a pocket on the right side.

Paper Measurements:

• 12" x 12" DSP (perferably non-directional on both sides):  
• score at 4" and 8", turn once
• score at 6"
• make CUT marks according to the video

and...I just realized that I drew the GLUE marks wrong.  REALLY best to watch the video to see what I did.

Stamps: Stripes & Dots, Reason to Celebrate, Month by Month and Month by Month Alphabet (Virtual Album Retreat 2025), Fabulous Sayings, Sending Salutations, More than Autumn

Ink:  Blueberry Bushel, Shaded Spruce, Poppy Parade, Flirty Flamingo, Granny Apple Green, Lemon Lime Twist, Balmy Blue, Melon Mambo

Paper: Crushed Curry, Blueberry Bushel, Shaded Spruce, Poppy Parade, Flirty Flamingo, Granny Apple Green, Lemon Lime Twist, Balmy Blue, Melon Mambo, Basic White, some 12" x 12" dsp (retired)

Other:  Mini Alphabet dies, Star punches (medium and small), Basic Rhinestones, 

Again, I will flip through the whole book on Thursday night.  Including the cover, I think I got 15 pictures in this little book.  Granted - some are minis, but they still count!

Join me THIS Thursday, 3/26/2026 for a different fun mini album using FOUR 6" x 12" pieces of DSP.  This will be a perfect project for using up some of your paper share sets!  

Thanks for visiting, and Happy stamping!
