Sneak Peeks, Fun New Technique and lots of new products!

I am so sorry Facebook live was not cooperative yesterday – I was so excited to share the new 2025-2027 Stampin’ Up! In Colors with you as well as several new products coming in the new catalog on May 6, 2025. I hope you’ll have a moment to watch the recorded video I have for you today!
Video at the bottom of the post!
Please scroll to the bottom if this post to watch the video.

The Painted Stripes background stamp is currently available in the online store and looks great paired with these new In Colors, or, with any ink pad colors you would like to use. You can see by the color combo above, I’ve featured new In Colors today!

Each of my samples today features the Painted Stripes background stamp and the new Layered Thoughts greeting set – the greeting stamp set was a gift at the Stampin’ Up! OnStage event this month, but the striped background is available now. I stamped all of the greetings in the new Secret Sea.. this is truly going to be my new “go-to color” instead of black.

If you’d like to label your cardstock dividers or any other Stampin’ Up! products, please feel free to download this label sheet for the 2025-2026 catalog.

Here are some of the new embellishments I shared in the video.. they are coming in May. The pack on the right includes the 5 new In Colors for 2025-2027! I’ve used them on the cards today!

New Technique for Background Stamps
I just learned about this technique a couple days ago from demonstrator Lucy Jones. Check out the difference when you use this technique with water before stamping:

Grab your Silicone craft mat.. you are going to love it for this technique!

Birthday Card below: I stamped the greeting in Flirty Flamingo to see how it pairs with the new In Colors.. so pretty!

Wonderful creations! Thanks for sharing the Color Label Download.
You are most welcome!!
I love the technique of smooching the ink on the silicone mat, and being able to make multiples. I like the more filled in look, and you are able to use up all the ink so it doesn’t get wasted. I love the new In-colors!
Thank you so much Patty for all that you share with us especially the great tips and technicques! It makes us better at what we do. You are so kind and so patient as a teacher. I am a teacher at our local community college and always try to emulate your kindness and patience with my students.
Many thanks!

Hi Patty! I just tried this inking technique with some other Stampin’ Up background stamps and it works wonderfully well! Thank you for sharing!
OOOh, which stamps did you use.. I’m eager to try this out with more images!
Thank you Patty, you are always there!!! Thank you for the colors, they are GORGEOUS, STUNNING, ADORABLE, ….. Take time “to sleep” … don’t forget it!
thank you!!
Wonderful technique! Every card was gorgeous! Thanks so much for sharing.
Thank you Mary!!
Thank you
Love this technique! Thank you for sharing exactly how to do it!
Glad you enjoyed it!!
Hi Patty
Thanks for the Avery label download! I printed with the correct 80 labels per sheet,but several of the labels don’t lineup with the stickers!🥲 Do you have any suggestions?
Thanks, Dawn
Sorry, I don’t have a solution.. you can see by the graphic that they all align within the area of each label. It must be a difference in our printers.
Gorgeous cards in the new colors!! However … what caught my eye was the plastic sleeves you have the embellishments in … I love them .. where did you find them?? (I’m sure you have mentioned it in the past, but this is my 1st time noticing them.) Thanks!!!
I searched your craftroom section and found them!! Thank you for making my life easier!
