Mini Catalogue Lights of Aurora Suite | November | 2025 Artisan Design Team

This month's assignment for Group 2 of the 2025 Stampin' Up! Artisan Design Team is to create projects using the @stampinupofficial Lights of Aurora Suite from the 2025 Sept - Dec Mini Catalogue.  

This suite is amazing, and the standout product from this suite is the 6'X6" Lights of Aurora Designer Series Paper that showcases waves of cosmic colour. This DSP helps to bring the magic of the Northern and Southern Lights to your crafting projects.

While these products would be perfect to pair with your Aurora photos for a stunning scrapbook page, I've used the Lights of Aurora products for two landscape cards showcasing the DSP, the Lights and Wonder Stamp and Die bundle, and the gorgeous embellishments.

CASE-ing the Catty | CTC #545 | CASE Online Exclusives

 Hello Stamping Friends. Welcome to a super exciting CASE-ing the Catty Blog Hop. We at CASE-ing the Catty are about CASE-ing the samples from the Stampin' Up! Catalogues (Catty) with a different theme to CASE each week. To CASE is to Copy and Selectively Edit.

 If you've come from Peta Stephen's blog, welcome; if you've started here with me, also welcome. It's so good to have you here.

This week, we are CASE-ing the samples from the Online Exclusive products on the Stampin' Up! website and as the name suggests, these samples can only be found online.

 This is the sample that I have chosen to CASE this week. I was drawn to the card's simple design and layout, and as I looked at it, I got ideas for how I could use the design with the products I already had. The original sample uses products from the Hobby Haven Suite, but I've used the Christmas Tags & More Specialty DSP. It includes full-sheet designs, cut-apart designs for card fronts and tags, and pre-cut images for quick accents.

I've made my cards a little different from the original sample by adding a few extra layers, and each card needs layers. I've also added some die-cut Stylish Shapes circles instead of the banner the O.G. sample had.

I've stepped up my cards by adding ribbon, trim, and embellishments to add that extra bit of prettiness.  I really love how with one pack of DSP you can make some amazing cards or scrapbook pages with minimal stamping or no stamping, as with my cards today! Stampin' Up! has some stunning DSP packs, and they make it easy to make beautiful creations. Let's get to using them! 

I hope that you have enjoyed my CASE of the Online Exclusives sample.  Next up on the hop is the fabulous Judy May.  Be sure to give her some CASE-ing the Catty Blog hop love.

Just Add Ink #773 | Sketch Challenge

 Hello stamping friends. Happy Friday! I hope you are having a wonderful day. I'm here today with the Just Add Ink Design Team for the new Just Add Ink Challenge - Just Add Ink #773 | Just Add a Sketch. This sketch was designed by Just Add Ink Design Team member Tristan Dawes. 

I love that this sketch gives you the basic design elements to create a card, and then it allows you to be able to make it your own. That is what I've done today using the @stampinupofficial Traditions of Christmas Suite. It's time to get on to creating more Christmas cards, so you'll be seeing a lot of festive creations from me from now on till Christmas.

I usually love my white card bases, but for this challenge, I've gone with a Pool Party card base, then layered it with cardstock and DSP. How pretty is the Traditions of Christmas DSP, by the way? Just stunning! Instead of the layered rectangles you see in the sketch, I've used layered circles with foliage die cuts from the Christmas Greenery dies, then added linen thread and ribbon bows. It's all finished off with the banner die cut and the Season's Greetings sentiment. SO festive and so fun!

Remember our Just Add Ink Challenges run for two weeks now, so you have a bit more time to come and join in the fun. Grab your crafting supplies and come and play along. 

 Ready to join in this challenge? Click on the banner below and you'll be taken straight to the Just Add Ink Blog, where you will find the design team's inspiration creations for you, as well as all the details on how you can participate. I'd love to see you join in!
