The collection includes:

  • Holly Jolly Branches Bundle β€” stamp set and dies
  • Whispering Woods 12″ x 12″ Designer Series Paper

HSS #479 | Nature Walk Thank You Card + Nature Walk Mega Stamp Camp

The first Hand Stamped Sentiments challenge of 2026 is here, and I couldn’t think of a better way to kick off the year than with the timeless elegance of the Nature Walk Suite from Stampin’ Up! πŸ’™πŸŒΏ

For HSS #479, I created a clean and layered thank you card that highlights the soft, organic beauty of this suite. The Nature Walk Designer Series Paper and Natural Hues 12X12 Textured Specialty Paper adds subtle texture and warmth, while the coordinating leaf die cut brings gentle movement and balance to the design. I kept the colour palette calm and classic, letting the details shine without overwhelming the layout.

This card design is perfect for everyday gratitude cards, sympathy cards, or even thinking-of-you projects. Simple layouts like this are wonderful to keep on handβ€”and the Nature Walk Suite makes it easy to create something beautiful every time.


Be sure to check out the card recipe so you can easily recreate this project in your own craft room.

🌿 Nature Walk Mega Stamp Camp – Featured Suite
If you love this suite, you’ll be happy to know that the Nature Walk Suite is the featured suite in my upcoming Nature Walk Mega Stamp Camp, hosted with four other talented Stampin’ Up! demonstrators.

Cheers to You! Featuring the Celebratory Sips Suite

Let’s raise a glass! πŸ₯‚

In today’s Facebook Live, I shared a bright and cheerful card using the Celebratory Sips Suiteβ€”which also happens to be the featured suite for my upcoming Celebratory Sips Mega Stamp Camp. I couldn’t resist creating with these adorable drink images and fun textures.

Here’s a closer look at the card:

πŸ‘‰ I started with an Old Olive card base and added a Glass & Gardens embossed background (I love how it adds subtle texture!).
πŸ‘‰ The drinks were fussy cut from the DSP in the suiteβ€”aren’t they adorable?
πŸ‘‰ I layered them onto a Soft Sea Foam Everyday Arch, stamped some Old Olive mint leaves behind for extra greenery, and tied it together with that stunning Gold Striped Ribbon.
πŸ‘‰ For sparkle, I used the Holographic Resin Dotsβ€”love the shine they give!
πŸ‘‰ The sentiment, stamped in Blackberry Bliss, pops perfectly against the soft background.

You can catch the replay of today’s Live on You Tubeβ€”let me know what you think of this card!

πŸ’‘ Why I love this suite:
The Celebratory Sips Suite makes it SO easy to create cards for birthdays, brunches, and summer parties. The fun drink imagery, fresh colour palette, and versatile sentiments mean you can use it year-round. Plus, the matching DSP makes designing quick and easyβ€”just cut, layer, and go!

Here is a full list of supplies I used on today’s card.


πŸŽ‰ Want to craft along with me?


Join my Celebratory Sips Mega Stamp Camp! You’ll get a fun-filled day of tutorials, project kits, and inspiration using this suite.
