Fabulous Sayings Meets Wooly Friends | January 2026 Product of the Month Live Replay

Leave a comment

I went live this evening to create a cheerful, texture-filled handmade card featuring Stampin’ Up!’s January 2026 Product of the Month – Fabulous Sayings stamp set, and it was such a fun project to share!

If you missed the live crafting session, you can catch the full replay here:
👉 Watch the replay:

For this card, I paired the Fabulous Sayings stamp set with the adorable Wooly Friends stamp set for a playful, feel-good design. The sweet sheep image adds charm and personality, while the sentiments in Fabulous Sayings are perfect for thank-you and encouragement cards.

To really elevate the design, I used the Splashes of Sparkles Specialty Designer Series Paper. This paper adds soft colour, shimmer, and texture—making it ideal for focal panels and background interest without overwhelming the card design.

The Fabulous Sayings stamp set is incredibly versatile. From gratitude cards to happy mail, the sentiments are bold, modern, and easy to mix with other stamp sets—just like I did with Wooly Friends in tonight’s project.

If you’re shopping in Canada, here’s how to snag the January 2026 Product of the Month deal:

  • Place a $100 CAD order (before shipping and taxes)
  • Add the Fabulous Sayings stamp set to your order for just $5 CAD

It’s a fantastic way to stretch your crafting budget while adding a must-have stamp set to your collection.

Watch, Craft & Be Inspired

Celebrate the Miracle – A Handmade Hanukkah Card | Monday Live Replay

Leave a comment

Hanukkah began on Sunday, making it the perfect time to feature the Celebrate the Miracle stamp set during this week’s Monday Live. This symbolic and elegant stamp set is ideal for creating meaningful handmade Hanukkah cards.

For this project, I paired the stamps with the calm, wintery patterns of the Peaceful Garden 12″ x 12″ Designer Series Paper, creating a beautiful backdrop for the menorah image.

Just a reminder that Stampin’ Up!’s Product of the Month, True Blue Florals 12″ x 12″ Designer Series Paper, is still available. While it wasn’t used on this card, the monochromatic blue designs would work beautifully for Hanukkah cards and other winter-themed projects.

🎥 Watch the Monday Live replay:

Treat Bag Duo – Modern & Traditional Christmas

Leave a comment

Today I’m sharing the replay of tonight’s FB Live where we created two adorable Christmas treat bags—one with a bold, modern vibe and one with a warm, traditional feel. These are quick, candy-friendly, and perfect for teachers, coworkers, stocking stuffers, or class treats. Even better? They both come together with just a bit of scoring, folding, and Tear’n’Tape!

🎄 Treat Bag #1 – Modern Christmas Style

This one features the striking black-and-white pattern from the Modern Christmas DSP. I paired it with the Real Red Shiny Ribbon (currently on the Last Chance List!), White Baker’s Twine, and a tag created with the 1-7/8″ Circle Punch and Stylish Shapes circles.
The sentiment comes from the Ornamental Christmas stamp set, and I added a little sparkle with sequins.

🎄 Treat Bag #2 – Traditional Christmas Style

Our second bag has that classic cozy holiday look using the Traditional Christmas DSP. I finished the top with Secret Sea Faux Linen Ribbon and Black, White & Gold Baker’s Twine.
The tag is built with Stylish Shapes circles, stamped with the Holly Jolly stamp set in Real Red Ink, and brushed with Wink of Stella for a soft shimmer.

Both treat bags are assembled with Tear’n’Tape, making them sturdy and gift-ready.

💌 Printable PDF Tutorial
I’ve added a free downloadable PDF with all the measurements so you can recreate these treat bags any time.
