Get Seasonal Insta Hop | 2025 Artisan Design Team


🙌 It's time to GET SEASONAL with the 2025 Stampin’ Up! Artisan Design Team! Come hop along with us as we share some fun inspiration to get your holiday creative juices flowing!⁠

I'm getting a head start on my Christmas cards. It's never too soon to start! I've used products from one of the new and most stunning suites, the Traditions of Christmas Suite, from the @stampinupofficial Sept-Dec 2025 Mini Catalogue, which will be available for customers to purchase starting September 3, 2025.

 I've used the Christmas Greenery stamp and die bundle for a little bit of watercolouring and a pop of colour, and then added some of the sentiments from the Traditional Labels stamp and die bundle to add some Christmas sentiments. I love the pops of colour against that beautiful crisp white background and how pretty are the Cherry Cobbler pointestias with the Pretty in Pink flowers? Such a gorgeous colour combo!

Just Add Ink #765 | Colour Challenge

 Hey there stamping friends! I'm here today with the Just Add Ink Design Team for the new Just Add Ink Challenge - Just Add Ink #765 | Colour Challenge. This week our colours have been suggested by Just Add Ink Design Team Member, Jan.  

This week we are challenging you with the colours Lost Lagoon, Goreous Grape, and Highland Heather. A blue-green and some pretty purples. I've used the colours for a pretty floral card with some Alcohol Marker colouring which I haven't done for  while.


 I've used the Lost Lagoon for all my card base layers adding some embossing with the Forever Plaid embossing folder and layer using the Perennial Postage Dies. On the Perennial Postage die cut I added some ink splatters and a pattern from the Metallic Textures Rub-Ons. I got these rub-ons a while ago but have only used them recently. They are super easy to add to any of your creations and they give that extra bit of wow without being too expensive or too messy. Well worth the purchase!

Once all the base layers were prepared and adhered to the card I then layered some of the Charming Day die cuts, the floral image from the Charming Day Stamp Set, Stylish Shapes Circle die cut, the embossed sentiment also from the Charming Day Stamp set, and then finished the card off with some ribbon, trim and embellishments.

I love how this card turned out and I hope that it gave you some inspiration for this colour challenge.

Will you be entering our challenge this week? We would love to see your take on our colours. Click the image below to be taken straight to this week's challenge.

Bauble Blooms Bundle | August | 2025 Artisan Design Team Monthly Project

This month's assignment for Group 2 of the 2025 Stampin' Up! Artisan Design Team have been tasked with creating projects using the festive Bauble Blooms Bundle from the @stampinupofficial July Online Exclusive release.⁠


 This bundle includes dies to quickly cut holiday baubles and a stamp set featuring an elegant floral design. DIY your own Christmas ornaments to add a handmade touch to your decor this year. These baubles will also look great on a card front, as a gift topper, or on your festive scrapbook layouts.⁠

This is a Two-Step Stampin’ set; it allows you to layer two or more images to create one final image with extra texture and dimension in the colours you want. 

I've used the bauble stamped images and dies for two festive Christmas cards with two different designs. I've kept to more traditional Christmas colours, greens, reds and golds, but these baubles would also look fantastic in some non-traditional colours too!⁠

My first card is just a standard-sized card and uses some neutral colours with some pops of Real Red and Gold. I've layered some different embossed pieces and then added some Gold heat-embossed splatters. I've then layered a torn piece of the Country Woods DSP that has been accented with the Metallic Textures Rub-Ons. If you are after a quick and mess-free embellishment, these are just for you. It's the first time that I've used them, and they are super quick and super easy to add to your project! Love them!

 I've then finished off the card with a heat-embossed and stamped Bauble, Linen Thread, Loose Gold Sequins, and a heat-embossed sentiment.

For my second card, I've created a slimline card. I've stamped on the Mossy Meadow Baubles with Mossy Meadow Ink for a tone-on-tone look and then adhered the baubles across the card for a pretty bauble background. I've then stamped up two other baubles to feature on the card, and then I've finished the card off with an embossed sentiment, Linen Thread, and some loose gold sequins. 

I hope that I've given you some festive inspiration with this amazing bundle. Make sure you check out my post for this suite on Instagram HERE, as group two have an Instagram Hop and you will be able to see the rest of the teams'  stunning creations.
