During Covid, Stampin’ Up! like most companies pivoted to online events for demonstrator education instead of in person…

Creativity Now was born from that necessity and has been a well attended online seminar for the last few years…now that the world is relatively back to normal they announced that this year’s Creativity Now would be the last one.

We were sad to hear that but with the introduction of Online card classes and Virtual card and Album Retreats the event has become redundant…So join me today to see the creative inspiration from our last Creativity Now event and the alternative projects I created!

Creativity Now used a pre-order upcoming Online Exclusive Suite that was definitely a different style for me called the Painted Collage Suite with the Notes of Collage bundle and Painted Collage DSP. But like most times I start to play with the products and fall in love with the designs!

These first projects are two of the projects I did from the instructions for projects A and B.

A is a card using water coloring techniques on our watercolor paper and a matching envelope made from our Designer Series Paper!

Project B is a card on card design for a gift card holder – the blank center portion of the smaller Cajun Craze tri-fold card on card is where the gift card would be attached and this uses the smaller vingnettes from one of the DSP pages.
It also uses the cross hatch die pattern as a cool background under the tri-fold card!

Project C was a two page scrapbooking spread for an 8 X 10 album and since I scrapbook in 8.5 x 11 or 12 x 12 I converted the layout elements into 8.5 x 11 scrapbooking pages.

The first three photos are from the elements of the 8″ x 10″ scrapbooking spread converted to 8.5″ x 11″.

Project D was a very cool banner which I had no immediate use for so I also took the elements and created more scrapbooking pages!

These next photos are using the banner elements for scrapbooking background elements instead of the banner!

I created a single page spread with the last banner image shown below.

and one last page using more scraps and elements from the unused projects!

When I was preparing and pre-cutting all of the elements for the Creativity Now virtual retreat projects I saved all the negative die cuts and extra Designer Series paper and created some alternate projects and wanted to show you these as well.

This first alternate used the larger leaf die image negative. I backed it with a watercolor Lost Lagoon and Secret Sea DSP pattern.
I blended Secret Sea ink on a 4″ x 5 1/4″ Basic White layer and splattered it with a Secret Sea Stampin’ Blends marker. I adhered the negative die to the right-hand side of the blended layer and adhered both to a Lost Lagoon base.
Added a banner sentiment piece and Dewdrop embellishments to finish off the card with a coordinated look!

This next alternate I used a Golden Glow card base, a 3″ x 5 1/2″ piece of DSP and several left over dies to create this card. I blended the sentiment piece like the last card with Secret Sea ink on a blending brush and splatters with the Secret Sea Stampin’ Blends marker.

This Cajun Craze alternate card uses a blended background with Cajun Craze and Petal Pink inks. Then I stamped the circle image from the Notes of Collage set (SNEAK PEAK this will be available to customers in the next Online Exclusive release) in Petal Pink ink and the rain or teardrop image in Cajun Craze ink in collaged pattern as a background and then splattered the surface with the Cajun Craze Stampin’ Blends marker. I stamped the finer leaf stem on the right-hand side of the layer in Cajun Craze ink and popped up the negative die layer over it on Stampin’ Dimensionals. I adhered this to the Cajun Craze base and added Metallic Gems and a sentiment to finish off this card!

For this next alternate, I blended the background with Secret Sea and Petal Pink inks and blending brushes. Stamped the larger leaf image from the Notes of Collage stamp set in Secret Sea ink on the right-hand side. Added splatter from the Secret Sea Stampin’ Blends marker and the added the negative die over the image. I added an extra die cut that I had and a sentiment and adhered that layer to a Cajun Craze base card and finished it off with Copper Metallic Gems!

My last alternate card I blended a background of Lost Lagoon, Golden Glow and Petal Pink with Splatters and added the last negative die I created. I concentrated the Golden Glow where the negative die openings would be – it looks like a hot mess but when it is covered by the negative die it works! I splattered the entire card with Secret Sea marker and added Secret Sea stamped circles from the Notes of Collage to the negative Golden Glow die piece prior to adhering it to the blended layer. I finished by adhering it to the Golden Glow base and adding gold metallic gems to finish off this lovely alternate card!

Hope these inspired you with some fun and easy techniques.

You can use all of the bits and pieces!

Now it is your turn to go and create some artwork of your very own – one stamp at a time!

Happy Stampin’
Natalie

creativity now sneak peak card

by nataliegramleystamps | Jul 22, 2026 | card samples, Designer Series Paper, die cutting, embossing folders, masculine cards, online exclusives, sneak peak, stamps ink paper, techniques

One of the coolest things about being a demonstrator is the friendships we make not only with new friends and customers but with other demonstrators!

On August 8th, demonstrators have the opportunity to gather virtually for a day of learning and papercrafting. We also were able to pre-order an upcoming November Online Exclusive suite called Painted Collage.

It is a fun whimsical collage style set with very fun and different Designer Series Paper with Painted images and drawn lines. it is modern and funky and different from anything in our current inventory and I was excited to try and create with the Notes of Collage Bundle.

I made two cards today for you:

Measurements:

Card #1:
BASE: Lemon Lime Twist CS: 5 1/2″ x 8 1/2″
scored at 4 1/4″
Basic White CS: 4″ x 5 1/4″, 1/2″ and 3/4″ strips,
scraps for die

Card #2
BASE: Lemon Lime Twist CS: 5 1/2″ x 8 1/2″
scored at 4 1/4″, scraps for die
Basic White CS: 4″ x 5 1/4″, 1/2″ and 3/4″ strips,
scraps for die

For card #1 base I stamped the irregular whimsical circle image in Lemon Lime Twist ink all over the card front.

I used the 4″ x 5 1/4″ Basic white layer and stamped the large leafy sprig in Lemon Lime Twist ink twice (one for each card) and die cut them out.

On July 2nd I posted a card that had a sentiment piece that was blended with a blending brush and Lemon Lime Twist ink and then water splattered with a water painter and tapped against a bone folder to spray water droplets over the surface of the paper. The water droplets “lift” the ink off the paper and make lighter spots everywhere the water touches the card stock.

I used all of the extra paper from those cards and cut strips from the die negative pieces.

I placed them long edge to long edge and stamped the artistic flourish in Hybrid Black ink. Keep them in order and eventually adhere them to the card front.

Die cut the leaf sprig from the Notes of Collage die set in Basic WhIte cardstock and adhere to the left-hand side of the card front.

I adhered the black inked flourish image alternating height: top strip adhered directly to the card and then the next strip underneath the top one adhere with Stampin’ Dimensionals – continuing to alternate every other strip – flat and popped up.

Take an extra strip and stamp a sentiment from the Notes of Collage stamp set in Hybrid Black ink and pop it up with STampin’ Dimensionals on the top left-hand side of the card front.

Adhere embellishments and this first card is complete!

For card #2 I embossed the 4″ x 5 1/4″ Basic White layer with the 3D Fern & Flora embossing folder.

Adhere to the card front of card #2.

Adhere the leaf stamped die to the bottom right-hand side of the embossed layer and the strips to the upper left-hand corner.

Stamp a sentiment onto one of the extra strips and pop up on the bottom of the card.

Embellish and complete!

Reminder this is a SNEAK PEAK of the Painted Collage Suite which will not be available until the November Online Exclusives release so it will not appear below in the photo links!

Now it’s your turn to create some artwork of your very own – one stamp at a time!

Happy Stampin’

more color mondays – crushed curry, gorgeous grape and blueberry bushel – scenic coast sneak peak

by nataliegramleystamps | Apr 27, 2026 | card samples, Designer Series Paper, die cutting, fun fold, masculine cards, my favorites, new catalog, sneak peak, specialty papers, techniques

Well Stampin’ Up!’s done it again just when I think they cannot design more gorgeous papers – they come up with something like this!

It is one of those items that is so much better in person but I made a video which I will share of one of the 6″ x 6″ sheets to show you the shimmer on these pages!

The Scenic Coast Suite is right up my alley – it’s sunsets and water and boats – it cannot get any better for a lake girl like me!

This Easel card fun fold is so easy and makes a stand up display card for this stunning paper!

Measurements:
BASE: Gorgeous Grape CS: 4 1/2″ x 11″
scored at 1 1/2″ and 5 1/2″
Crushed Curry CS: 4″ x 5 1/4″
Blueberry Bushel CS: 1 1/4″ x 4″
DSP: 6″ x 6″ cut for desired part of design to
3 3/4″ x 5″, 1″ x 3 3/4″
Basic White CS: 4″ x 5 1/4″ for inside and scraps
for sentiment die cuts

Cut the DSP to 3 3/4″ x 5″ and mount on the Crushed Curry 4″ x 5 1/4″ layer.

Die cut the large banner from the Stylish Shapes die set from a Basic White scrap and stamp “wherever this note finds you…” in Gorgeous Grape ink and blend the edges with a blending brush and Gorgeous Grape ink for some added color!
Pop up the sentiment with Stampin’ Dimensionals and place in the lower right-hand corner of the layers.

This Suite will be available May 5th to customers and it contains the prettiest sunset colored sequins.

I added three around the sentiment piece to finish off the front of the card.

I took one of the side pieces cut from the 6″ x 6″ DSP and adhered it onto the Blueberry Bushel layer.

I cut a die from the Upcoming Online Exclusive Silly Old Bear Suite of products for the inside sentiment and blended the edges with a blending brush and Gorgeous Grape ink!

I popped up the inside sentiment piece in the center of the DSP/Blueberry Bushel layer.

Score the 4 1/4″ x 11″ at 1 1/2″ and 5 1/2″.

Adhere the Basic White 4″ x 5 1/4″ layer to the inside of the card base.

Then Adhere the Blueberry Bushel layer to the bottom of the Basic White layer.

Bend the 1 1/2″ score line to a mountain fold and then flatten the card base and add Stampin’ Seal + to the scored panel leaving about 1/8″ border.

Adhere the bottom third of the front Crushed Curry DSP layer to the bottom panel leaving an even border on the sides and bottom of the card.

The border around the whole outside of the card should be even (even thought the layer is only attached at the bottom you want to make sure that the layer is straight and even the entire way around.

Because the inside sentiment is popped up it provides a stopper for the easel portion of the card – I actually popped up the inside of the Blueberry Bushel layer so that the easel would rest above that layer so you could see the whole layer! You could use either the sentiment or the layer as a stopper.
Bend the score line inward and place it behind the elevated layer to create the stand up easel!

Viola! It stands independently for display and looks stunning! This is a great card for this paper – hope you try this fun fold with this stunning paper or stuff in your stash! No go and create some artwork of your very own – one stamp at a time!

Happy Stampin’

more color mondays – petal pink, balmy blue and soft sea foam

by nataliegramleystamps | Apr 13, 2026 | card samples, color challenge, die cutting, more color mondays, retiring products, sneak peak, techniques

Today’s More Color Mondays color challenge features Petal Pink, Balmy Blue and Soft Sea Foam.

Today’s card features a very fun and sparkly technique – dyed Wink of Stella.

Measurements:
BASE: Balmy Blue CS: 4 1/4″ x 11″
scored at 5 1/2″
Soft Sea Foam CS: 4″ x 5 1/4″
Petal Pink CS: scraps for dies
Basic White CS: scraps for dies

Always keep your Wink of Stella pens even when they dry out. If you unscrew the brush top and pry the black stopper out of the pen shaft you can fill the shaft with alcohol to re-wet the glitter left in the barrel. Put the black stopper back in and screw the pen top back in. Squeeze the tube to release the glitter inside onto a silicon mat. Squeeze one drop of ink refill onto the silicon mat. Mix the drop of ink refill with the glitter.

Cut the largest Spotlight of Nature dies in the Soft Sea Foam CS layer. Paint the edges of the die with the Soft Sea Foam tinted Wink of Stella glitter.

After painting the edges of the die place it back inside the layer.

Mix another squeeze of glitter with Petal Pink ink refill.

Splatter the Soft Sea Foam layer with the Petal Pink tinted glitter.

Adhere the Soft Sea Foam layer to the balmy Blue card base.

Stamp two flowers on Petal Pink CS in Petal Pink ink and paint the petals with the tinted Petal Pink glitter.

Die cut a smaller Spotlight on Nature die in Basic White CS. Stamp the “Sending HAPPY thoughts” from the upcoming Sending Salutations stamp set from the new catalog debuting on May 5th. Paint the word HAPPY in the Petal Pink tinted Wink of Stella.

Adhere the pink flowers to the Soft Sea Foam layer.

Mix more glitter from the Wink of Stella paint brush and a drop of Balmy Blue ink refill.

Paint the petals of the flower from the Gallery Bloom stamp bundle.

Paint the leaves with the Soft Sea Foam tinted Glitter.

Adhere the Pink flowers under the Balmy Blue flowers – pop up the blue flowers onto Stampin’ Dimensionals.

Adhere the sentiment under the blue flowers.

Adhere the Pearls of Beauty around the card.

Adding tint to the Wink of Stella adds beautiful sparkly glitter! Try this technique and create some sparkling artwork of your very own – one stamp at a time!

april stampin’ up! creative challenge

by nataliegramleystamps | Apr 8, 2026 | card samples, masculine cards, sneak peak, stamps ink paper, techniques

Do you know that Stampin’ Up! sponsors a creative challenge every month?

April features a challenge to use two different coloring tools! Will you rise to the challenge? If you create a card or project using this challenge post it on Facebook or Instagram with the hashtag #SUCREATIVECHALLENGE see Stampin’ Up’s video announcing the new challenge by going to this link

Here’s my card for the challenge using water painters and blending brushes two of my favorites!

Measurements:
BASE: Basic White CS: 5 1/2″ x 8 1/2″ , scrap for
the die
Granny Apple Green CS: 1/4″ x 4″ strip scrap for
leaf die
Vellum CS: scrap for Spotlight on Nature circle
die

I combined some OLD AND NEW PRODUCTS – some LAST CHANCE items – Petals of Beauty dies and some sneak peak Phrases and Frames bundle…

I die cut the middle die from the Phrases and Frames bundle and used the frame and the inside piece. I blended the lower right-hand corner of the inside piece.

I added a drop of ink refill to my glass mat and added water to the drop from my Water Painter. I diluted the drop so it was very watery and tapped the edge of the water painter over the blending brush handle over the blended rectangular piece to add a splatter effect! Such an easy effect with HUGE impact!

I blended the Granny Apple Green onto the card front.

Adhere the rectangle to the card base off to the right-hand side of center.

Die cut the open leaf die from the Petals of Beauty die set in Granny Apple Green CS – cut into two sections and add glue to the frame and add the leaf sections under the frame on bottom and top corners. Adhere over the rectangle.

Die cut one of the circles from the Spotlight in Nature die set in Vellum CS and stamp the Thinking of You sentiment from the Phrases and Frames stamp set in Granny Apple Green ink and blend the edges.

Adhere the Granny Apple Green strip over the bottom of the vellum circle. Add glue under the vellum where the strip is to adhere to the card without the glue being visible.

Add the vellum circle onto the card.

Add a black accent from the Floral Flight Accents upcoming in the new catalog from the Beautiful Ordinary Life suite of products.
Add an extra Petals of Beauty leaf die.

Add embellishments to finish the card.

Coloring tools can add a lot to a card do not discount the little details can make a BIG difference!

Here is the same card design using a different Floral Flight accent!

Such fun! Try this #SUCREATIVECHALLENGE today and see what you can create – one stamp at a time!

Happy Stampin’

more color mondays – pool party, flirty flamingo and lemon lolly sneak peak

by nataliegramleystamps | Apr 6, 2026 | card samples, color challenge, Designer Series Paper, die cutting, embossing folders, fun fold, my favorites, new catalog, sneak peak, stampin' tools, techniques

Oh so many fun new things coming around the corner! We are going to three total catalogs a year no more mini catalogs and lots of fun stuff in this first new catalog!

We are introducing new impressions dies and plate to have embossing make even more of an impact and WOW!

This More Color Mondays submission features a sneak peak at some of the awesome new products we will be featuring with this new catalog!

Susan Campfield, a fellow demonstrator in my side line hit her million dollars in sales this past sales year and got a design a new stamp set for part of her million dollar celebration! The Phrases and Frames came out of those design meetings she wanted a versatile sentiment set and Stampin’ Up! was looking for a set like that to introduce one of their newest products the Impressions Plate! Lucky Her that she gets to introduce this product with her million dollar bundle!

This is an easel card which is an adaptation of the ones that she demonstrated at OnStage a few weeks ago using her million dollar bundle plus the Beautiful Ordinary Life Designer Series paper.

Measurements:
BASE: Pool Party CS: 5 1/2″ x 8 1/2″
scored at 4 1/4″ and 2 1/8″, scrap for oval die
Lemon Lolly CS: (2) 4 1/4″ x 5 1/2″
DSP: 4″ x 5 1/4″

Take the Lemon Lolly CS layers and die cut 2 of the largest frame from the Phrases and Frames Dies.

Leave the paper die cut in the metal die and turn cut side up.

Make an Impression sandwich with the BASE Plate #1, the Thin Die Adapter #2 then place the die cut side up and lay the new Impressions Plate on top, add the #4 Embossing Plate and run through the Stampin’ Cut and Emboss machine.

This puffs out the embossing making the design up out or stand out and is more defined.

Using the inside scrap from one of the die cuts in Lemon Lolly run the two smallest dies from the Phrases and Frames die set through the cutting setting with #1, #2 and two cutting plates #3s.

Run the larger frame of the two dies through the Impressions setting with #1, #2 then the die and paper cut side up, the Impressions Plate and then #4.

Cut the DSP to 3 3/8 X 4 3/4″.
Save the cut pieces.

Adhere the 3 3/8″ piece to a piece of Flirty Flamingo cardstock of 3 1/2″ x 4 3/4″.
This will show when the card is in easel mode for a finished backside.

Place Stampin’ Seal + around the backside of the perimeter of the large frame.

Place the DSP and Flirty Flamingo l;ayer, DSP side up on the taped side of the frame.

Place Stampin’ Seal + and the backside of the second frame and place over the DSP layer matching up the outside edges of the frames so they match. This essentially seals the DSP inside two frames back to back that the frames are pretty sides outward.

Cut another second smallest frame out of Pool Party and just use the inside oval for the sentiment.

Stamp the Happy Anniversary wording from the Phrases and Frames sentiment set in Tuxedo Black Memento ink. Adhere to the left side of the DSP inside the larger frame. Pop up the Lemon Lolly frame around the wording.

Open the card base to the inside and stamp the complimentary inside sentiment for the Anniversary in Tuxedo Black Memento ink in the center of the inside of the card base.

Take the DSP piece that is 5 1/4″ in length and adhere to the bottom of the inside of the card base below the inside sentiment.

Stamp the sending you hugs in Tuxedo Black Memento ink on the smallest oval from the Phrases and Frames die set.

Pop up the small oval on Stampin’ Dimensionals and place in the center of the DSP. This will be the stopper for the easel mechanism.

Adhere the lower half of the frame layer to the outmost panel of the card front.

Pop out a butterfly from the upcoming Floral Flight Accents – these are thick precut dies perfect for easy card making or accents in scrapbooking!

Adhere the frame layer to the right and below the sentiment frame.

Apply three Flirty Falmingo embellishments from the Array of Dots from the Beautiful Ordinary Life Suite of products to the card front.

If you bend the card at the score line this will create an easel effect and the card front will slide to the little oval stopper and rest as an easel for display!

This is what the card looks like from the side in the easel form! So much fun – I love easel cards they are impressive and easy and these new impressions dies have such great detail!

Try an easel card today and go create some artwork of your very own – one stamp at a time!

Happy Stampin’
