This or That? Stampin' Up! Extraordinary Flora Washi Tape Cards

Today's card was inspired by the Natural Botanicals Card on page 114 of the 2025-2026 Annual Catalog. It is one of five layouts that I am featuring on my May 2024 Special Edition Back Pocket Card Layouts. I love to "CASE the Catalog" -- Copy And Selectively Edit -- the ideas shared there. Change the stamp set or designer paper, choose different colors, and make it my own using whatever supplies I have at home. I invite you to do the same! I hope these card ideas inspire you to create your own cards to send to family and friends.

I used some brand new products to make these cards. The gorgeous new Extraordinary Flora Washi Tape has a coordinating stamp set and die -- which also cuts out the washi tape! You can die cut the washi tape as is, but I prefer to put it on Basic White cardstock (you could also use a window sheet or vellum) or provide some stability as accents on the card.

The Extraordinary Flora Washi Tape includes two sets of floral images with different colors. Which color combination do you prefer? Leave a comment and let me know!

Old Olive, Strawberry Slush, Darling Duckling 

Summer Splash, Petunia Pop, Darling Duckling

Meet the New In Colors!

You're going to love the new 2025-2025 In Colors! This year's collection includes Strawberry Slush, Timid Tiger, Darling Duckling, Cloud Cover, and Secret Sea.

Cloud Cover Update

Unfortunately, Stampin' Up! has decided to pull the full size Cloud Cover ink pad from production. The ink is having a chemical reaction with the firm foam ink pad base which is causing the color to shift and be more gray than blue.

The good news is that the ink is working well on the felt pad of a Stampin' Spot, so you have two options for a mini Cloud Cover ink pad.

• The Classic Stampin' Spot Small Assortment 1 (166716) includes a pre-inked Cloud Cover Stampin' Spot.
• Make Your Own! Use the Cloud Cover Ink Refill (165279) and Uninked Stampin' Spots (141822)

VIDEO: Stampin' Up! On the Go Designer Paper Gate Fold Card Tutorial + Bonus Card Ideas

The new catalog is here!! I'm so excited to share all of the new amazing products that were released this week -- the 2025-2026 Annual Catalog and the even more awesome Online Exclusives are now available to order! If you'd like to sample a little bit of all of the designer paper and ribbon, be sure to reserve your spot in my popular product share!

Reserve Your Product Share Now

The first group of orders has closed and will be shipped on Monday, May 12 before I depart for the Stampin' Up! Incentive Trip. The second round of orders will have to wait until I return and will be mailed on Tuesday, May 27th. Reserve your spot now!

A couple weeks ago, I shared some projects using different paper that is part of the product share. I hope these cards inspire you -- whether you are using the same designer paper at home or choose your favorite pattern from your stash!

Turtle-y Awesome Card Measurements:

• 5-1/2" x 7-1/2" Granny Apple Green Cardstock, scored at 4-1/4"
• 3" x 5-1/4" Designer Paper
• 2" x 4-1/4" Garden Green Cardstock, embossed
• 2-3/8" Circle
• 3/4" x 2" Basic White Cardstock (greeting)
• 4" x 5-1/4" Basic White Cardstock (inside)

Do you play an instrument? I took piano lessons when I was younger and remember just a little bit -- but all four of my kids are or were in band when they were in school. I love all of the band turtles in this paper pack. This was the card that I designed for my Peoria Shoebox Swap and I included all of the band turtles in my card packets. Here's the same card with the trumpeting turtle.

The next two cards featuring the Lovely Garden Suite. This beautiful spring-time paper was originally released in March as part of the Online Exclusives. I'm including the paper in the May 2025 Product Share so you can sample it without having to buy an entire package.

Thankful Garden Card Measurements:

• 5-1/2" x 8-1/2" Garden Green Cardstock, scored at 4-1/4"

The last card is a fun fold inspired by a card I received from Sandy Coy-Emery. I added a belly hand to keep this Designer Paper Gate Fold Card closed and used another new designer paper from the March 2025 Online Exclusives called On the Go.

On the Go Designer Paper Gate Fold Card Measurements:

• 4-1/4" x 5-1/2" Azure Afternoon Cardstock
