Beautiful Butterflies & More

If you haven’t seen this Bundle in the Mini Catalog, the Beautiful Butterflies Bundle (164615) is one that you’ll want to check out since it contains a fun movement shaped option along with a fun hybrid embossing folder with dies. It’s all part of the Beautiful Bokeh Suite (164619).

Today’s swaps all use this fun bundle but all have different takes making them a lot of fun. check out this first card using classic black and yellow.

It was created using the Floral Delight Designer Series Paper (164700) and Floral & Gingham Vellum Specialty Designer Series Paper (164713).

And this next one uses the Smoky Slate, Daffodil Delight and Petal Pink color combination for a softer look.

Open the butterfly and you’ve got a fun fold that is sure to impress.

This next card teams up the small butterflies from the Beautiful Butterflies Hybrid Embossing Folder & Dies (164614) with the Countryside Inn Designer Series Paper (161467).

That fun little window was created with the All Around it Dies (Online Exclusive 164725). And speaking of Online Exclusive products these next two cards use the beautiful black & white patterns from the Botanical Textures Designer Series Paper (Online Exclusive 165545).

Last but not least today I’ve got a couple of 3d swaps for you. First is a fun little ruler holder

using the lovely Beautiful Bokeh Designer Series Paper (164607) and Brass Butterflies (158136). And this last little 3d is a treat that holds a mini Ghirardelli square.

The little wrap works like a book and the card stock measures 3 1/8″ x 2″ it has been scored at 1 3/4″ and 2″. A piece of Baker’s Twine creates the closure and is simply tacked to the back cover with some adhesive and then the chocolate adhere on top. The Die cut pieces using the Storybook Moments Suite (164681) decorate the cover. Cute, right?

#OnStage Wrap up –

I can’t tell you how much fun I have had over the last 16 years attending Stampin’ Up! events like this. While the format may have changed the experience hasn’t. Creativity, NEW products, sneak peeks,

and best of all gathering with Demonstrators from all over the world who love to paper craft like I do.

Meeting new friends is part of the fun. Here is a group we connected with at dinner the last night since reservations were hard to get. We had room at our table we asked them to join us and had a great time getting to know each other.

Are you enjoying the swaps and sneak peeks into OnStage? If this is something you think you may enjoy joining my team may be just the right fit for you so you can attend these events, get to see NEW products first, and our Catalogs.

It’s just a peek of what’s inside the 2025 Annual Catalog. And as I am sure you can guess, being the first to see this new catalog or any of our new catalogs is a very exciting AND a  huge perk of being a Demonstrator – after all who wouldn’t want to be first? Right?  Add the fact that you’ll receive a discount on all these products and you can’t lose! If you feel this is a good time to join Stampin’ Up! and my team, the Blue Mountain Stampers, you too can be first too!

Online Exclusives Faith Collection

Did you know that we have a special selection of stamp sets, dies and more in the Online Store? These special products are released periodically and supplement our Annual and Mini Catalogs giving us new products every month of the year! Today’s card use the Faith Collection Bundle (Online Exclusives 164796) that is found there.

This set is perfect for Easter with it’s lovely coordinating dies. Check out these two cards using this bundle. This first card also uses the Everyday Skies 6×6 Designer Series Paper (Online Exclusive 164622).

The cross has been die cut using Pecan pie and places on the stamped die cut image. The sky sets a beautiful sunrise backdrop and a few Adhesive Backed Trio Pearls (163319) add a bit of shine and texture.

This next card uses the same images but has a less dramatic spring feel to it

with it’s softer color pallet. Done in Old Olive and Daffodil Delight it uses the Floral Delight Designer Series Paper (164700). Old Olive has been used for the palms and has been stamped off to create a lighter shade of green behind the cross. A bit of Daffodil Delight 1/8″ Satin Ribbon (164715) is draped across the cross that has been die cut in Pecan Pie and uses both the solid and detailed die. A bit of sponging on the detailed layer gives it more depth. And those cut little dots that add a bit of shine come from the Glossy Dots Assortment (158827).
