Hidden Door Card

by

The final card in this series features the Lovely & Beautiful Designer Series Paper. This design is a hidden door card, making it a beautiful way to commemorate a special event for someone special.

Because of the layering and embellishments, this card is a bit thicker than usual. It may exceed the 1/4″ maximum thickness for a standard first-class mailing, depending on how dimensional your decorations are—so keep that in mind when preparing it for the mail.

Stampin’ Up! News

There are some exciting changes coming soon! Beginning in May, Stampin’ Up! will be transitioning from one Annual Catalog and two mini catalogs to three quarterly catalogs per year. This means catalogs will no longer overlap—instead, a brand-new catalog will be released every four months.

Online exclusives will continue to be released every two months, and some products may still carry over into the next catalog, just as they do now.

Another exciting update is the gradual introduction of new stamp pad cases. These redesigned cases will feature a secure magnetic closure that is still easy to open. The new 2026–2028 In Colors will debut this packaging. While the price will increase to $14 per case, the new design also includes felt pads instead of foam. Felt pads hold more ink, which can provide better coverage and longer-lasting use.

3 Piece Puzzle Slider Card

by

This fun interactive card is a Double Z-Fold with three interlocking pieces that form the front of the card. The lovely layering die cuts from the Beautifully Celebrated die set are the perfect frame for the little table of flowers from the Gliding Garden Swing dies.

This is the third card in the March Zoom Card Class, which will be held on March 21. There are three kits left for this class—check out all the details on the Class Calendar page.

April Zoom Card Class

Date: Saturday, April 18, 2026
Time: 6 pm
Class Fee: $36 plus Postage if necessary (calculated when ready to ship)
OR
1/2 Kit: $18 (1 of each card) plus Postage if necessary (calculated when ready to ship)

RSVP by: March 21, 2026

Class Description:

We will be making 8 cards in this class, two of each design shown in the picture above. The video below shows the cards open so you can see all of the fancy and fun fold cards we’ll be creating.

Because these cards were designed using Specialty Designer Series Paper, and I used more than the usual amount on three of the four designs, the cost of this class is a little higher than normal. In addition, two of the cards use nearly three full sheets of cardstock, and metallic cardstock is used on two designs as well.

All of these special elements combined make these cards extra special — and a bit more expensive than our typical classes.

NOTE About Card Kits for Classes: Everything in your card kit is pre-cut and ready to assemble unless otherwise noted. Card kits do not include stamped images, glue, or Stampin’ Dimensionals. Each kit does include the cardstock, die cuts, Designer Series Paper, ribbon, and any other embellishments shown in the class advertisement. Instructions for the card kits are available on my blog, so even if you miss class, you’ll still be able to assemble your cards.

(F) – full set of 8 cards (2 of each design)

(1/2) – 1/2 kit which is 4 cards (1 of each design)

(?) – haven’t confirmed half or full set
