Sparkling Celebrations!!

Posted on by

The May 2026 Paper Pumpkin Kit was called Sparkling Celebrations and it was just that! These cards just scream summer with fireworks, the glow of lights, and more! Wondering what Paper Pumpkin is? It is a monthly subscription kit with a craft project and everything needed to create it all in a fabulous box. These kits are typically cards but sometimes include treat boxes, home decor, etc.

Sparkling Celebrations Paper Pumpkin Kit, www.LaurasStampPad.com

This card was my favorite! I just love the fun fireworks and colors! Be sure the placement of the large fireworks is low enough to fit the fireworks along the top! Otherwise, this one is quick and simple. Oh, another tip is that this card is the one that has the jewels! I couldn’t find on the instructions which card used the jewels but after looking at the front photo I saw them on this one!

Glowing Lanterns May 2026 Paper Pumpkin, www.LaurasStampPad.com

This card was my second favorite or tied with the other! My mind was blown a bit with the ink color being Misty Moonlight and yet we are stamping green bushes?!?! Stamping Misty Moonlight onto that yellow makes a green look! How amazing! This card is just beautiful!

Summer Nights May 2026 Paper Pumpkin, www.LaurasStampPad.com

This card was not my favorite at all. I’ll admit it. First off, the greeting was supposed to be You Are Invited and honestly I didn’t need a card like that. What am I having that I need invitations?!?! So I used the Time to Celebrate greeting and stamped just Celebrate. Check out this video on how I did that! Next, trying to add the Tear And Tape to that skinny little lamp post was really hard. They were both the same size! Precision for sure! Then it came down to the light bulbs which the direction showed them all clustered at the lamppost which looked odd to me. I spread my out but just felt it was odd looking. Just not my favorite card at all.

What about you? Which was your favorite card from the May 2026 Sparkling Celebrations Kit?!?

Sending Good Vibes!

Posted on by

Have you seen Stampin’ Up!’s new Shimmer Brushes?!? These add just the perfect amount of glittery shine with it getting all over like powder glitter! Woot Woot! Now that is worth cheering about and sending good vibes!!!

Sending Good Vibes, www.LaurasStampPad.com

Instructions:

Step 1: Draw diagonal lines on Basic White Cardstock using the Barely Blush Shimmer Brush. (Use the Clear Block F or a ruler as a guide.) Apply light pressure to create fine lines; increase pressure for thicker lines.

Step 2: Rotate your cardstock and (using the Clear Block F) draw additional lines to create a plaid pattern.

Step 3: Decorate your sparkling background with images, sentiments, and embellishments, then adhere the finished piece to the card base.

I just love these Shimmer Brushes so much because they are what I like to call “Safe Glitter” since it doesn’t go everywhere! It is fabulous! Give it a try for adding to a flower or balloon or orange! When you get a little bit more brave, try this fun background!

Want to get a Shimmer Brush for FREE?!?!? Laura’s Free Gift of the Month for June is a Shimmer Brush!!! This means when you order $75 or more (before shipping, tax, and rewards redeemed) you will get a Shimmer Brush for FREE as a thank you gift!!! Woot Woot! Just sending good vibes! 🙂

Happy Stampin’

Fun & Easy Scrapbooking!

Posted on by

Are you a scrapbooker?! Have you looked at it and thought you wanted to try it out but feel scared?! I totally get that! I was a scrapbooker back when I got started with Stampin’ Up! but then I moved into card making. Then I had kids and scrapbooking has just been pushed aside. Stampin’ Up! launched new kits and now I’m excited to get back into it with these fun and easy scrapbooking pages!

Fun and easy scrapbooking kits, www.LaurasStampPad.com

Each Scrapbooking Kit includes:
✔ Coordinated supplies

Just open the kit and start creating! Instructions included!!!

They’re perfect for:
📸 Family memories

💛 A Great Way to Actually USE Your Photos

Let’s be honest…most of us have hundreds (or thousands 😅) of photos sitting on our phones.

These kits are such a fun way to finally print those memories and turn them into something special you can flip through, display, and share with family.

Bee Kind!!!

Posted on by

Sometimes we get stuck in a rut with our crafting! Here is a fun technique that you should try to pull you out of that rut! This technique can be used with lots of different stamp sets!! Step out and try this bee kind card!

Bee Kind Mirror Image Stamping, www.LaurasStampPad.com

Step 1: Die cut a heart shape or image of your choice from Basic White Cardstock. Then, stamp the bee image with Memento ink onto the Silicone Craft Sheet.

Step 2: Place the die-cut heart on the stamped image and rub it with your finger to transfer the image to the cardstock. Be careful not to wiggle or move the cardstock because then you will get a smeared image.

Step 3: Now that you have the reversed image bee, stamp the image again on the heart so that the bees are facing one another. So sweet!!!

This is a fabulous technique to use with lots of different stamp images! What image would you love to try this out with?!?! Let me know in the comments below!

Check out the supplies used in this card below! You can click each image or select Add All To Cart! Don’t forget about all of the amazing perks when you shop with me – Fabulous Friends Club Perks and Free Gift of the Month!

Happy Stampin’ and bee kind,

~Laura

New Hybrid Ink

Posted on by

The new hybrid ink will be a coloring go-to. Now you no longer have to guess which ink to use for which technique (watercoloring, alcohol markers, etc)!! This simplifies your crafting experience because you only need to reach for one ink pad!

New Hybrid Ink, www.LaurasStampPad.com


HELPFUL HYBRID POINTERS
Here are a few pro tips to keep in mind as you begin using your new Basic Black Hybrid Ink:

  1. Like StāzOn, the Basic Black Hybrid Stampin’ Pad is airtight to prevent evaporation. If you experience suction opening the pad, put your fingernails under the lip of the lid and pull it open at an angle.
  2. Use Stampin’ Mist (153648) and the Simply Shammy (147042) to clean your stamps. It’s worth noting that the hybrid ink will stain your stamps, but the stained color left on clean stamps won’t transfer to other ink pads.
  3. For best results, allow stamped hybrid ink to dry before applying any additional color like coloring with Stampin’ Blends, Sponges, Blending Brushes, Spritzing, or Watercoloring. 
  4. Hybrid ink will not stamp on Window Sheets or other non-porous surfaces.

Are you excited about the Hybrid Ink Pad? Order yours today here! Have additional questions about this, feel free to ask me any time!

Lakeside Retreat Paper Pumpkin Kit!

Posted on by

The April 2026 Paper Pumpkin – Lakeside Retreat was the perfect masculine card kit to get me ready for Father’s Day! I actually did all of my cards with that greeting! What about you?! Have you created your April Kit yet?!

Lakeside Retreat April 2026 Paper Pumpkin, www.LaurasStampPad.com

What is Paper Pumpkin you ask?! It is a monthly subscription kit with a craft project and everything needed to create it all in a fabulous box. These kits are typically cards but sometimes include treat boxes, home decor, etc.

Father's Day Card Paper Pumpkin, www.LaurasStampPad.com

I felt like this kit had a lot of stamping and A LOT of Dimensional use! You all know how much I love Stampin’ Dimensionals but even I thought it was a bit much. LOL I actually mixed it up a bit and didn’t use them in spots the instructions said to use them and used them in other areas! For the card above, the instructions had dimensionals used for the plaid strip and I decided not to do that. Instead, I adhered that piece flat and used dimensionals on all of the other pieces! You can always do whatever you want with these kits – follow the instructions, modify as you wish, or even use the pieces with other cardstock and products to create something totally different! It’s all up to you and that’s the fabulous part about this!

April 2026 Paper Pumpkin Kit Lakeside Retreat, www.LaurasStampPad.com

This last card was a bit tricky but trust the process. Stamping the cattails upside down and just on the card front was a bit scary. I did have to adjust the layers on top to make sure I didn’t cover up anything but it worked and turned out fabulous!!! I’m sooooo excited to have 6 cards for Father’s Day now! There are 9 total cards in the kit but my daughter who is 7 does the kit with me and she gets to create and keep 1 of each! I love it and hope we continue to do these kits together!

Did you enjoy this Lakeside Retreat Paper Pumpkin Kit?!? Don’t forget that you can purchase refills to make even more or have fun creating alternatives! Can’t wait for the May kit!!!!

Happy Stampin’
