I’ve been playing with one of my favourite suites from the annual catalogue—Boho Vibes! This vibrant and eclectic suite is packed with creative possibilities, and today I’m sharing a fun-fold card that gives a playful twist to the rainbow motif.
I was recently fortunate to attend this year’s Stampin’ Up! Incentive Trip* in sunny Orlando, Florida—an unforgettable experience! One of the exciting reveals during the event was a first look at products from the July Online Exclusives release. Alongside catching up with fellow demonstrators, I had the chance to admire beautiful display boards showcasing these soon-to-be-released goodies. One project in particular, created with the brand-new Painterly Pears Suite, immediately caught my eye. The soft colour palette, delicate blossoms, and repeated pear motif were just too lovely to ignore—I knew I had to recreate it.
In my last post, I mentioned how wonderfully eclectic the Beautiful Gallery Designer Series Paper is—and this card is a perfect example! The bold print on the card front feels like a delightful mix of paisley and floral vines, creating a unique and eye-catching thank you card.
The Beautiful Gallery Designer Series Paper features elegant, earthy tones, with each sheet showcasing a gallery-worthy pattern that stands on its own. For this project, I selected the stunning hand-painted floral portrait and highlighted its soft green hues to create a gentle “just a note” card—perfect for expressing heartfelt thanks or offering comfort.
Matariki marks a special moment in Aotearoa’s calendar — the rising of a cluster of stars that signals the Māori New Year. Known also as the Pleiades or the Seven Sisters, Matariki invites us to pause: to remember those who came before us, to appreciate the present, and to set intentions for the year ahead.
Whether you're gathering with loved ones, preparing a special meal, or simply taking time to reflect, may this season of Matariki bring you warmth, connection, and inspiration.
Mānawa maiea te putanga o Matariki
Mānawa maiea te Mātahi o te tau
Celebrate the rising of Matariki

We created two projects at the recent Annual Catalogue Launch Party. One featured the playful new Sweet Jar Bundle, and this second project is a beautiful friendship card made with the fabulous Feathered Fun stamp set.
At last week’s Annual Catalogue Launch Party Launch Party, everyone got hands-on with some fabulous new products and colours—and created two simple but super fun cards! One of the projects featured the playful new Sweet Jar Bundle, and it was a hit.
We kicked off the new creative year in style last Friday with our Annual Catalogue Launch Party! It was a fun-filled day of inspiration, laughter, and a first look at the exciting new products from the 2025–2026 Annual Catalogue. From fresh ideas to fabulous giveaways, there was plenty to see, share, and celebrate.
