Today I have my first set of cards using the brand new 2026-2028 In Color Collection from Stampin' Up! Before I jump into the tutorial, Stampin' Up! has announced DOUBLE REWARDS April 15-17, 2026! So excited! Mark your calendar!
I used the Paradise Garden Bundle and the Beautifully Celebrated Dies for today's cards as well as a "thanks" die from a retired Paper Pumpkin add-on set called Thanks and Beyond.

Now, it can be overwhelming to buy everything at once. If you enjoy that then shop til you drop but I will be offering an ordering special each month over the new few months focusing on collecting the products of one color each month. I will start with PEACEFUL PINE! I will have more details soon!
Here are today's card measurements:
MEASUREMENTS:
Pearlized Specialty Layer: 4-1/4 x 5-1/2"
Striped DSP Die Cut: 3-3/4 x 3 (Beautifully Celebrated Dies)
Basic White Die Cut: 4-1/4 x 3-1/2" (Beautifully Celebrated Dies)
(2) Baby's Breath Sprig Die Cuts (Beautifully Celebrated Dies)
(2) Peaceful Pine Leaf Cluster Die Cuts (Paradise Garden Bundle)
(1) Basic White Sentiment Banner Die Cut (Paradise Garden Bundle)
Opitonal: Word Die Cut (Used Thanks & Beyond Add On Dies - now retired)
(3) 2026-2028 In Color Dots
INSTRUCTIONS:
Happy Crafting!
Emboss the pearlized paper with the Paradise Garden Hybrid Embossing folder. (I did not use the die, only the folder) with the Stampin' Cut & Emboss Machine - Plates 1 & 4 for 3D embossing folders.
Stamping:
Using the Stampin' Positioner and a piece of grid paper, stamp the leaf cluster in Peaceful Pine ink. Take one of the negative pieces of your die cut leaves and line it up with the stamped image on grid paper. Secure with magnets from the positioner. Ink your stamp, place your die cut inside the negative (now a stamping template) and stamp as many die cuts as you like. For 5 cards, I needed 10 leaf cluster die cuts and I stamped 10 of them in no time at all, perfect alignment every time! I did this tone on tone, Peaceful Pine ink on Peaceful Pine die cuts.
You can use the "Thank You" stamp from the Paradise Garden Bundle on the sentiment banner in your In Colors. The only reason I used a word die was because I didn't have all of the in color ink pads yet, but either way you get a beautiful result!
Assembly:
Glue your pearlized panel first. Place your layering dies center. For your leaf and baby's breath die cuts assembly them in the lower half of card at slight angle, leafs pointing outward. Place banner over the leaves. Finish with in color dots.
Happy Crafting!
