Scrapbooking Snowy Adventures ❄️ | New Stampin’ Up! Papers + How-To Travel Guide...

Hey friends! This weekend on my YouTube channel, I’m shared a brand-new scrapbook layout that captures one of our family’s snowy adventures. If you’ve been looking for fresh ideas to document your travels, this layout combines some of my favorite techniques with gorgeous new papers from Stampin’ Up! and a peek at our new how-to guide on scrapbooking travel memories.

This two-page spread also has an 8 x 12 Flip Flap to house more photos. It's full of movement, texture (wait until you see how I made the SNOW title), and cozy winter vibes. I wanted the layout to feel like the photos themselves—fun, playful, and layered with details you’d notice as you flip through.

Here’s what I included:

Stenciling: I used the NEW Snowy Delights Snowflake Masks in the background to add dimension and bring that frosty feel to life. The soft ink blending and pops of color help anchor the photos and embellishments.

I used four different ink colors for that layered look...

---------------------------------------------------

New Papers from Stampin’ Up!: This was the first time I played with the Peaceful Day Scrapbooking Kit these fresh patterns, and oh my goodness—they’re PERFECT for outdoor adventures. The mix of blues, grays, and cozy textures pairs beautifully with winter photos.

The ribbon I used is from the Peaceful Gardens Suite - I decided to go an upside down tie for the tags and I LOVE the look...

Journaling spots and layered tags tucked behind photos give you a place to write little details without taking away from the design.

---------------------------------------------------------------------------------

My Favorite Details ❤️

The large “Good Times” circle is the perfect focal piece and title. You can barely see them here, but I also added the silver rub-ons from the Metallic Texture Rub-Ons around the clusters, title, etc.

The Die-cut and sticker trees help pull in the outdoor vibe - I layered them and used Dimensionals for added depth...

Added texture with the SNOW Title. I used the Party Alphabet Dies and our NEW Velvet Paper in white from the All Seasons Velvet Specialty Paper...

------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Travel Scrapbooking Made Easy ✈️

This layout is also a sneak peek into our brand-new how-to guide on scrapbooking travel. Whether you’re documenting a quick day trip or a full family vacation, the guide walks you through:

Choosing the right papers and embellishments

Mixing full layouts with pocket pages

Quick journaling prompts to capture the “little moments”

Easy layering techniques for eye-catching spreads

If you’ve ever felt overwhelmed with where to start on a travel album, this guide is going to be your new best friend.

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Watch the Full Tutorial 🎥

Head over to my YouTube channel to see this layout come together step-by-step. You’ll see how I used the stencil, tips for layering patterned papers, and how to make the most of your travel photos in a two-page spread.

MUST-HAVE New Product from the Sept-Dec Mini Catalog....

Tomorrow, September 3rd, marks the release of the Sept-Dec Mini Catalog AND the Online Exclusives!

I thought I'd give you a list of MUST-HAVEs 😊

As a scrapbooker and cardmaker, I want to start the list like I would a project - from the base up...

SUITES...

TIP: Evaluate each product in a Suite - if you think you'll use them all, buy the Suite! If you don't think so, especially if it's a stamp, die, or embossing folder, consider buying the products you like al a carte!

The Suites below are the ones that I purchased....everything else, I did al a carte.

------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

PATTERNED PAPER (DSP) (may overlap Suites suggested above - because you can never have too much paper 😊)...

TIP: If there's a Coordinating Cardstock for the DSP Package I'm buying, I always add it to my cart. #1 it allows me to instantly have cardstock to use in my scrapbooking and cardmaking and #2 I get a sampling of all the colors without having to buy full packages of each cardstock.

----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

SPECIALTY PAPER (might already be in Suites suggested above)...

----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

STAMPS/BUNDLES (not already in Suites suggested above)...

Needed for the coordinating Tree Shaker Domes

----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

DIES/EMBOSSING FOLDERS (might be in Suites suggested above)...

TIP #1: Some Dies coordinate with the DSP - that's the coolest thing ever!!! 

TIP #2: Some Dies can stand-alone even though they are offered as Bundles with a coordinating Stamp Set - as in both the cases with the dies below. I wasn't really a fan of the stamp sets so I opted for the stand-alone dies. P.S. The Jolly Delivery Dies coordinate with the North Pole Delivery DSP!!!

TIP #3: You will NEVER regret buying one of Stampin' Up!'s Embossing Folders, in my opinion 😊

----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

EMBELLISHMENTS (might already be in Suites suggested above)...

TIP: BUY...THEM...ALL 

HAVE FUN SHOPPING!!!

These products will be released at midnight on Sept 3rd (Utah time)....who's staying up late to shop ✋

Terrific Toadstools In Color Card...

I love when I can take a product and use it in multiple ways...just like the Terrific Toadstools Punch!

Here's what I used:

• Terrific Toadstools Punch (the bundle is a GOOD one)
• 2025-2027 In Color DSP
• Circle Punches: 1-3/4" and 1-7/8"
• Cloud Cover Ribbon
• 2025-2027 Flat Pearls
• 3D Exposed Brick Embossing Folder
• Pattern of Friendship Stamp (I suggest getting the bundle with the coordinating embossing/diecut plate - although I didn't use it here, it's a GOOD ONE!)
• Secret Sea Ink
• Dimensionals & 3D Foam Tape

Here's a closeup of all that texture....

Thanks so much for stopping by...if you'd like to see a short reel on how this came together AND see the inside of the card, head on over to IG and check it out!

This or That - Paper Pumpkin - Full of Charm...

One thing I love about Paper Pumpkin Kits is that there are enough card to make one of each of the pre-designed, then I get to do my own thing for the rest.

Let's take a look at both of the options...the one on the left "this" is the as-designed card and the one on the right "that" is the redesigned Matchbook card...

Let's take a close-up look...ALL of these elements are included in the Kit!

Here's the matchbook card...

----------------------------------------------------------

And, here's what the card looks like opened...

This design is not a new one, but it's one that I've been using for the past few months. You can download the pdf measurements for the Matchbook Card {{{here}}}.

Here's a look at the Full of Charm Paper Pumpkin refill kit - since it's a refill, you'll need to add your own sentiment stamp from your stash...

Because this kit has some 2025-2027 In Colors in it, it's part of the In Color sale that is happening all month. There's less than a week left in this sale, so hurry on over to my website and pick up some of your favorite In Color products!

Make a Memory Scrapbooking Workshop...

I got together with some local friends this weekend to create 8...YES, EIGHT...double-page layouts featuring the Make a Memory Scrapbooking Kit.

By adding extra cardstock, some loose gold sequins, and some gray twine, this Kit got a GLOW-UP!!!

GOOD NEWS is that, by purchasing these items from my website, I will email you the pdf instructions to make your own! It's that easy! Give me 24 hours (just as a disclaimer....most emails will be sent out in a matter of minutes)

What if you already have some of these items? Simply place a $75 order (before tax, shipping, and redeemed Stampin' Rewards) and you can still get the pdf instructions!

Here's the list of supplies - ADD TO CART - then delete what you don't need and add what you need to meet the minimum order of $75. It's that easy!

If you're somewhat local, let me know and we can gather at your home with some of your friends and make them together 😊

Check out my reel-walk through by heading over to my Instagram Account - I'll walk you through all the layouts this Workshop makes!

Packaging, Markers, and Clings Oh My...

New and Improved Stamp and Die Packaging

As part of our transition away from cling stamps, we’re excited to introduce updated packaging for stamps and dies! Because photopolymer stamps are thinner, we’re able to offer sleeker, slimmer packaging that saves space. Both stamps and dies will now come in the same size and style of packaging, making it easier than ever to store bundles and coordinating products together. The new packaging is similar to our current die packaging—durable, clear plastic envelopes—but with an exciting improvement: Die packaging will now feature printed artwork for quick and easy identification! Stamp packaging will continue to display artwork as well.

What's Happening	When
New Photopolymer Stamps and Dies in New Packaging	All new stamps and dies starting with November Online Exclusives will come in the new packaging.
Transition for Photopolymer Stamps Released Prior to November 2025*	Photopolymer stamps released prior to November will transition to the new packaging with a rolling change. During this time, you and your customers may receive some stamps in old packaging and some in new. Transition will vary across markets based on inventory levels.
No Transition for Dies Released Prior to November 2025	Dies released prior to November will not transition to the new packaging. They will be sold in their existing packaging until they are discontinued.
No Transition for Cling Stamps	No cling stamps will transition to the new packaging.

*Some photopolymer stamps may move to Last Chance Products, sell out, and discontinue prior to transitioning to the new packaging.

Packaging Details

• New packaging measures 5-5/8" x 9" (14.3 x 22.9 cm).
• Stamps and dies will now come in the same size and style of packaging, making it easy to store bundles and coordinating products together.
• Packaging is clear with an insert that displays stamp or die artwork for quick and easy identification—yes, both stamp and die packaging will now show artwork!
• Larger packaging dimensions allow us to showcase more stamp artwork at 100% on the insert.
• Sleek, slim design will help you and your customers store more in less space.
• Envelope closure includes a tuck-in flap for quick and easy opening and closing.
• Packaging is sized to fit a variety of organization systems.

---------------------------------------------------------------
   

Stampin’ Write Markers

We have also decided to discontinue Stampin’ Write Markers. With the growing popularity of Stampin’ Blends, we’ve seen a steady decline in sales of Stampin’ Write Markers. One of the primary techniques unique to Stampin’ Write Markers is coloring directly on cling stamps—a technique that will become less relevant as we transition away from cling.

What's Happening	When
Phasing Out Stampin’ Write Markers	On August 20, 2025, all Stampin’ Write Markers will move to Last Chance Products* and be available while supplies last.

*While we typically only update our Last Chance Products during the first week of even-numbered months, we’re making an exception for this transition.

--------------------------------------------------------------

Cling Stamps (Red Rubber)

We’ve decided to discontinue our cling stamp line due to challenges in sourcing the necessary raw materials. While we currently have access to enough raw materials to continue production for the time being, the supply has become increasingly inconsistent, and certain key raw materials are no longer being manufactured. We’re choosing to make this change now to ensure a smoother, more strategic transition—with minimal disruption to you and your customers. We will continue to offer a wide range of photopolymer stamps to support various artistic styles and techniques.

What's Happening	When
Photopolymer Transition	Starting with November 2025 Online Exclusives, all new stamps will be photopolymer.
Last Printed Catalogs to Include Cling Stamps	September–December 2025 Mini Catalog and 2025–2026 Annual Catalog
Last Online Exclusives to Include Cling Stamps	September 2025 Online Exclusives
Mini Catalog Cling Transition*	In December 2025, all cling stamps in the September–December 2025 Mini Catalog will move to Last Chance Products and be available while supplies last. No cling stamps from the mini catalog will carry over.
Annual Catalog Cling Transition*	In April 2026, all cling stamps in the 2025–2026 Annual Catalog will move to Last Chance Products and be available while supplies last. No cling stamps from the annual catalog will carry over.
Online Exclusives Cling Transition	Cling stamps released in Online Exclusives through September 2025 will be supported—based on demand—until April 2026 at the latest. Some will likely discontinue prior to April.
Final Transition	In April 2026, all remaining cling stamps across our offering will move to Last Chance Products and be available while supplies last.

*Please note: Some cling stamps in the September–December 2025 Mini Catalog and/or 2025–2026 Annual Catalog may sell through their remaining inventory prior to the December or April Last Chance Products updates. In those cases, the products will move directly to the Discontinued Products List rather than appearing in Last Chance Products.
