Last Chance Favorite: 5 Stampin' Up! Beach Boardwalk Card Ideas + Video Tutorials

School is winding down for the year and I'm thinking about all of the fun things I want to do with the kids this summer! The Beach Boardwalk Suite from the Jan-Apr 2026 Stampin' Up! Catalog is on the Last Chance List -- which means it's the perfect time to snatch up deals on these ready-for-summer products -- coordinating designer paper, stamps, and dies to make cards to celebrate all the fun things you have planned for this summer!

Per usual, I turned to the catalog for inspiration and CASEd the first two cards that I made. CASE = Copy And Selectively Edit -- I copied for the most part and made a few changes to customize the card for me!

Watch the replay of my 12 Days of Christmas video from last winter to see how I channeled summer fun in chilly temps!

This suite stayed under the radar for the Jan-Apr 2026 Catalog period, but I love the fun patterns and bright colors! I kept coming back to it again and again!

Here's another video featuring the Beach Boardwalk Suite!

Here's one more card -- using another image from the Beach Boardwalk Designer Paper! I just love the bright colors in this paper! I used Summer Splash for the card base and background and Flirty Flamingo for the banner.

This card was inspired by Julia Mazur, who did a Guest Stamper presentation for us at my Traditions of Christmas Suite Escape Retreat earlier this month.

Don't forget to stamp the inside! I added a tea cup inside!

I was draw to the clean and simple style of the Friendly Foliage Bundle the first time I saw it. I think this one is a "sleeper" and will be popular! Check out my video for more card ideas; I received several swaps that used this bundle!
