Stampin' Up! Suite Sale Favorites: Charming Floral & Otterly Adorable Fun Fold Card Ideas

In last week's Thursday Night Stamp Therapy, I highlighted some Online Exclusives suite products. It's easy to overlook these products that don't appear in a printed catalog, but there are so many amazing options of stamps, dies, and coordinating products including designer paper, ribbon, and embellishments.

The first suite I highlighted is a sneak peek -- the Charming Floral Suite that will be release next week on Tuesday, July 1st. This gorgeous suite coordinates with the June 2025 Paper Pumpkin Kit. I'm in love the rich, beautiful colors and created this fun fold card to highlight multiple patterns of the Charming Floral Designer Paper.

Double Back Card Measurements:

• 5-1/2" x 11" Berry Burst Cardstock, scored at 1-1/4", 5-1/2", and 9-1/4"
• 3-1/2" x 5-1/4" Floral Charm Designer Paper (flowers)
• 1" x 5-1/4" Floral Charm Designer Paper (flowers)
• 1-1/2" x 5-1/4" Floral Charm Designer Paper (orange)
• 1" x 5-1/4" Floral Charm Designer Paper (orange)
• 4" x 5-1/4" Basic White Cardstock (inside)
• 1-1/4" x 11" Mossy Meadow Cardstock (belly band)
• 4-1/4" x 3-1/2" Basic White Cardstock (for die cutting)

I'm so excited to include the Charming Floral Designer Paper in my 12 Days of Christmas in July Gift Box this summer! Treat yourself to 12 days of surprises with a curated gift box of 12 wrapped surprises -- $120 in Stampin' Up! product --  PLUS a bonus gift from me! Reserve your Box

If you've been following me for awhile, you know that I find a lot of my creative inspiration from the printed project samples in the printed catalog. So where do I go for inspiration for Online Exclusives? The Online Store! When I am considering a new stamp set -- or after I buy one -- I browse the ideas on the product page in the online store. Click on the arrow near the product image to see additional images -- including project ideas!

My card was inspired by a card sample that I found in the Stampin' Up! online store and originally designed by a Stampin' Up! Concept Artist. I made a few changes, but kept the same layout and used the idea of stamping words on the background.

Be sure to watch the video replay of my livestream below to see how to use the Decorative Masks to color the flower! It was quick and easy to create a layered colored image with the masks!

Thankful Garden Card Measurements:

• 4-1/4" x 5-1/2" Lovely Garden Designer Paper (floral)
• 3-1/4" x 4-1/2" Lovely Garden Designer Paper (purple)
• 1" x 2-1/4" Basic White Cardstock (greeting)
• 3" x 4-1/4" Garden Green Cardstock (to die cut leaves)
• 3-1/2" x 4-1/4" Basic White Cardstock (to die cut flower)
• 5-1/2" x 8-1/2" Thick White Cardstock, scored at 4-1/4"

Here is the original project sample that inspired me.

My last project uses some Online Exclusives that were originally released back in November 2024. Now the stamp set, dies, and designer paper on the Last Chance List, but since they were originally released as a suite, that means they are also part of the BOGO 50% Off Suite Sale AND the 50% discount is taken on the SALE price!!

For example, buy the Otterly Amazing Dies (originally $32) for $22.40 and get the Otterly Amazing Stamp Set (originally $19) for 50% off $15.20 -- only $7.60! *Note: During the BOGO 50% Off Suite Sale, the LOWEST priced qualifying item on your order will be discounted. Which means if you also add the Otterly Adorable Designer Paper (originally $12.50) for $7.50 -- the 50% discount will be on the Designer Paper instead of the stamp set, making it only $3.75. Be sure to check out the Last Chance Clearance Rack for other qualifying Suite Sale items and look for the pink text above the Add to Cart Button.

Aren't these otters adorable!?  The inside of my card was inspired by a valentine card that I got from Judi Howard. Thank you so much for the inspiration, Judi!

Stampin' Up! Turtle-y Cute Arched Wishes Sliding Easel Card Video Tutorial

I needed redemption! The last time I attempted the Sliding Easel Card, it didn't go so well! It was just a little clunky and awkward. I learned from my mistakes and got it all tweaked and ready to share with you! 

I designed this card for a recent Sunday Stamping with Susan & Julie video so there are two different color variations using images from the Turtle-y Cute Designer Paper and the Arched Wishes and Everyday Arches stamp set from Online Exclusives.

Which color arch do you prefer for the front of this card? Balmy Blue (above) or Daffodil Delight (below)?

Sliding Easel Card Measurements 

• 4-1/4" x 11" Card Base 
• Cut two lines 1" from each long side from 1" down to 4-1/2" 
• Score between the cut lines closest to the end of the card 
• Cut between the cut lines closest to the card fold 
• 3-1/4" x 4-1/2" Thick Basic White Slider
• Die Cut Arch (DON'T Trim the bottom off...it will still fit okay!)
• 4" x 5-1/4" Designer Paper (cut frame with 7/8" border or leave it whole and glue it down before you do all the cutting on the card front) 
• 3” x 4” to go inside for sentiment 
• 2" x 2" Basic White (score at 1")
