Repeat stamp technique. Stampin’ Up! have allowed existing Demonstrators to pre-purchase the Stampin’ Positioner tool so I have been re-visiting the repeat stamp technique. In today’s card I have a few sneak peeks of products coming in the new 5 May to 31 August 2026 catalogue. There won’t be an annual catalogue. Three portrait orientation catalogues will be released every four months i.e., three times a year and will replace the annual catalogue.
- January–April
- May–August
- September–December
Several sneak peeks
I just couldn’t help myself! My pre-order box of goodies from the May-August catalogue arrived and I had to try some of the new stuff even though we’re still quite a long way away from launch the day. Hurrah! At long last, I’ve turned my attention to Cutest Crew – another March Online exclusive. Can you spot where the sneak peeks are hiding?


Sneak peeks galore!
I will add supply codes once they become available. Oh – and there are new Stampin’ Blends too, but I forgot to add them in photo. These are Hydrangea Hue, Barely Blush and Peaceful Pine.

How to make card



- Repeat stamp front of card with trio of birds image using the Stampin’ Positioner tool or a clear block with Crumb Cake ink.
- Adhere Sunset Shimmer Vellum piece on top of stamped images aligning the top, bottom and right edge with the right side of card front.
- Partially apply tear n’ tape on left edge of vellum (this is to hold the ribbon in place).
- Stamp greeting on Basic White strip. Butt it up to edge of vellum and adhere.
- Remove backing tape on vellum and attach ribbon and tie a flat knot.
- On a scrap of Basic White, stamp trio of birds. Colour with Stampin’ Blends – Hydrangea Hue, Peaceful Pine and Barely Blush, then die cut with corresponding die.
Finishing touches
- Remove backing on tear n’ tape and attach Barely Blush ribbon – tie a flat bow on front of card.
- Add a trio of the 2026-2028 In Color Butterflies.
- Stamp the Basic White mat layer for the inside of the card with the trio of birds stamp at the bottom of the card and adhere to inside of card.
Ta da! Finished. Looks AMAZING in real life, but hard to depict in a photo on blog because you can’t see the shimmer!
I will add supply list once it becomes available. Thanks for stopping by!
