New at SU: Reverse Stamping for Anniversary Card

What’s the latest at Stampin’ Up!®️?? Our international New at SU! design team is here to show you how versatile and essential a stamp positioning tool is, AND how you can get the NEW Stampin’ Positioner FREE during February 2026!

Let’s use the Stampin’ Positioner to make a REVERSE IMAGE using the Valentine Kisses bundle to make an adorable greeting card for a Wedding Anniversary ~ make sure to WATCH THE TUTORIAL below.

The bear stamp originally faces right, so how can you flip it? By using your SILICONE CRAFT SHEET on your Stampin’ Positioner! It makes it so easy, you can use the die to cut it out and it’s in the perfect place every time. Watch this:

I used the same technique for the vellum wings, and embossed them with clear powder over the Fresh Freesia ink, so they would dry quickly. And the Lasting Linen stamp set gives the background a faux-texture that is beautiful.

On the inside, I added sentiments from both Valentine Kisses and Reason to Celebrate:

The only way to get the Stampin’ Positioner this month is in the Stampin’ Up!®️ Starter Kit, and it will be automatically added to your order. Smart stampers know this is the best value anytime, but it has ADDED value this month!

Eventually, this tool will be available for purchase, but we don’t have a date yet, so if you just can’t wait, join my team (click link or image) or ask your demonstrator how to join.

What ELSE can you do with the positioner? I’m GLAD YOU ASKED! These demonstrators are all showing techniques and tips that you’ll love to learn. Visit each blog and SAVE your favorite ideas:

Stampin’ Positioner Tool (and How to Get One!)

From building to baking, from sewing to paper crafting, the correct tool makes any project easier, and the new Stampin’ Up!® Stampin’ Positioner does exactly that. Once you use it, you wonder how you ever crafted without it! Today I shared three simple ways to put it to work, and each one shines in the trio of projects you see here, with a video tutorial included.

3 ways to use the Stampin' Up! Stampin' Positioner

3 Clever Ways to Use the NEW Stampin’ Up!® Stampin’ Positioner

1. Perfect Placement: Line up your stamps to be exactly where you want them to be, and if you need to re-stamp, or have two-step stamps (like the jar of hearts), this tool is your best friend.

2. Can You Repeat That, Please?
When you want sentiments or images to be duplicated, use the smaller plate and move it down the pegs to stamp it again! For the masculine birthday card, “Happy Birthday” was easy to impress multiple times in a clean, evenly spaced design. Because the stamp stays in place, you can re-ink the saying and re-stamp with confidence.

3. You’ve Been Framed
The daisy chain “frame” around this anniversary card is a single line of flower images, but this tool made it easy to stamp around the block! Flirty Flamingo card stock: 4.5″ square (finished card is 5.25″ square, because I had envelopes that size).

Ready to get your hands on this cool tool?

Current demonstrators had the opportunity to pre-order it, but starting tomorrow – February 3 through March 2, 2026 –

it’s a FREE GIFT included in the Stampin’ Up! Starter Kit!!

Yes, it will be available in the future for customers to purchase, but we don’t have a date yet when it will be released, so accept the opportunity to choose $125 in Stampin’ Up! products AND A FREE STAMPIN’ POSITIONER for just $99! Shipping on starter kits is FREE (another perk) and you’ll get a 20-25% discount on your future purchases, as you “try on” the demonstrator apron with NO STRINGS ATTACHED (pun intended)

This is my introductory demonstration of the Stampin’ Positioner and the three ways I used it ~ supplies listed below.

Cards Crafted for January

I have the BSF’s (Best Stampin’ Friends) and we held an exchange for cards created using new products from the Stampin Up!®️ January 2026 Online Exclusives and January-April mini catalog: The cards we received from each other were AWESOME, so I had to share them with you!

ALL IMAGES ©️ Stampin’ Up!

ALL IMAGES ©️ Stampin’ Up!

THANKS to Michelle Scott for taking photos of all the cards

This is one of the fun things we do as a Sprinkled Ink team with each new print publication, and it makes us happy to see all the terrific stamping ideas. We’d love to welcome you to our family: Join Here!

My bright Anniversary card featured two new coordinating sets: Reason to Celebrate and Seasonal Celebrations…I love how the sentiments and images can be mixed & matched! The two arches also create a slide-in-lock to keep the card closed.

Branches & Pines: Swap Card for BackStage

There are so many things I’ve learned while being a Stampin’ Up!® Demonstrator beyond rubber stamping: This marvelous company was the first to train me on Crucial Conversations (which I’ve invested in three times since then), leadership and time management skills, self-care, communication, and most recently I’ve returned from #StampinUpBackStage (our leadership conference) in Las Vegas, where we learned to connect more meaningfully with our creative communities. What a blessing to have the personal development opportunity to help me grow into the best version of myself, so I can serve YOU!

Of course, no stamping event would be complete without a little swapping, but I was afraid I wouldn’t have time to make any cards to exchange…the night before I left, I MADE time to craft 20 cards. I used the cutting guide/template I shared in September and the Elegant Pine Snowflakes Designer Series Paper paired with the Branching Out bundle, which coordinated quite nicely:

It was delightful to share my cards with others, and receive many lovely hand-stamped creations in return, so the las-minute midnight stamping session paid off!

While not a holiday card, it has the feel of the season, and would make an excellent birthday or wedding card for someone celebrating during the winter:

If you are here to learn card-making skills, I’d love to send you a THANK YOU card when you order supplies from my Stampin’ Store! Make sure you OPT IN for REWARDS (earn 10% of your purchase back to save or spend next time) AND OPT IN to allow me to contact you!

Ready to embark on your own Stampin’ Up! personal adventure as a demonstrator? You will be loved and cherished in the Sprinkled Ink team, my demonstrator family!

Mix and match card stock to coordinate with the colors in the paper, and use any embellishments that you need to use up 😉

Serendipitously, there will be THREE DAYS of FREE SHIPPING on orders over $75 from October 22-24, 2025, so this is the time to save 11% AND check off a Christmas gift for a paper crafter!

Fluffy Squirrel Birthday & Sprinkled Ink Swaps

The art my teammates create is astounding! The Sprinkled Inkers (and friends) host a card swap for each new print publication, including new Online Exclusives. Michelle snapped these photos and I wanted to brag on the creators:

There were fun folds we learned in a virtual team meeting, gift card holders, tags, layers, specialty paper, ornaments, fun folds, embossing… all the creative ideas you collect by being a stamper! I’m so proud of these demonstrators, and there is ROOM IN OUR FAMILY FOR YOU!

For 31 days in October, there are two fabulous starter kit offers, and there is no reason you shouldn’t give take advantage of one of these two unbelievable deals:

As part of my team, you’ll have the opportunity to participate in the best card swaps EVER, and be embraced by a community of creatives you didn’t know you needed.

This was my card for the swap – just in time for Fall birthdays!

This playful card pairs the Stampin’ Up!®️ Fluffy Squirrel bundle (stamps & punch) with the Everyday Arches dies for an autumnal birthday greeting. The embossed background adds texture behind the sweet squirrels—one bringing a gift and the other gathering acorns. Turning the arches sideways adds to their versatility! A touch of twine and soft ink blending finish it off, making this card a charming way to celebrate someone’s day of birth in October or November.

Traveling with Stampin’ Friends

Stampin’ Up! offers a reason to travel with friends: Two weeks ago, a few of my Sprinkled Ink team (& friends) flew to Houston, Texas for OnStage (the SU! version of convention). We went a day early and did a bit of sightseeing at the Cockrell Butterfly Center, followed by lunch at our new favorite mediterranean restaurant “Fadi’s” (there is *always* good food involved on vacation).

The next few days were filled with fun like stamping, learning, greeting friends from all over the world, celebrating milestones, eating more good food, winning Prize Patrol, hearing the vision and strategy of the company, seeing the new catalog and enjoying (enduring?!) so much togetherness!

This was the card I created to trade with other demonstrators using the Filled With Happiness bundle (I will show how to create this fun-fold in a future video). Swapping is an essential part of stamping events, and I came home with 30 different samples to display at upcoming events.

It’s fun to feel spoiled by all the SWAG you receive at these events~ I snapped this photo at our hotel of the amazing backpack and gifts we received on check-in. In addition, we took home rubber stamps, Designer Series Paper, a color wheel and the catalog (it’s important to leave extra room in your luggage for all the goodies)!

Next year, OnStage will be in Raleigh, NC (March 2025) and I’m already looking forward to it! What would you suggest are things we MUST SEE in/near Raleigh? Best food?

Would you like to come with us? There is room at our table for more stamping friends… invest in yourself with a Starter Kit and we’ll happily save you a seat!

“Extra” Sweet Favor (and EXTRA rewards)

Have you ever stayed overnight where a candy or special small gift was left on your pillow? Those little touches are called “pillow gifts” and makes you feel fancy!

When I saw watermelon-flavored Extra gum while checking out at the grocery store, it made me think of the Watercolor Melon Sale-a-Bration stamp set, and how I could create along a theme:

A perfect size to drop off as a “thinking of you” gift- or leave on a pillow for guest – you pull on the ribbon and out slides the pack of gum:

This do-it-yourself project is simple and sweet, and I’ve got the video to prove it:

Slider box dimensions: 7-3/4″ x 3-1/4″ piece of card stock, scored at 1/2″, 1″, 3-1/2″ and 4″

Sale-a-Bration continues through February 29th; since it’s leap year, you have an “EXTRA” day to earn free products with each $50 purchase in my Stampin’ Store!

Did you also know there are TWO “Extras” you could choose from when you invest in the Starter Kit?

OPTION ONE: The first is that you may choose the Stampin’ Glass Mat Studio,

~OR~

OPTION TWO: Choose an EXTRA $30 in products in your Starter Kit! Usually you get to choose $125 of product in your kit for just $99, but through February 2024, you may select $155 (and pay only $99) if this is the option you decide on.

The Starter Kit is an offer ANYONE may select, and you will get a 20% discount while you also get to peek behind the curtain of being a demonstrator. There are no obligations to try it, so why not??
