I couldn't resist but have a second play with the May SU! Colour Challenge which is Black and White with A Pop of one of the 22-24 In Colours. My POP colour is Parakeet Party and I paired with the Beautiful Balloons Stamp Set. I simply stamped the balloons using Parakeet Party and Memento Tuxedo Black Inks. I double stamped the sentiment in both colours to give it an extra pop. I finished the card with a few Classic Matte Dots.

Pair the new BEAUTIFUL BALLOONS Stamp & Die Bundle with the May Card Kit to create today's handmade card for celebrations of all kinds!
Good Morning! The Stampin’ Up! Beautiful Balloons bundle is one of the new bundles in the upcoming 2023 – 2024 Annual Catalog and it’s perfect for celebrating special occasions. I…
Learn how to create this double z-fold card with Stampin' Up!'s Beautiful Balloons stamp set and dies in this video tutorial!
Now that we've showcased all the new In Colors from Stampin' Up!, we'll spend a bit of time focussing on the four new Core Colours in the range. First up is Azure Afternoon, a bright blue that I have had a couple of false starts with - really didn't think I liked it, but I have done a complete about-face! Once I decided on this gorgeous colour combination, everything came together easily on my card. The Beautiful Balloons bundle and Wanted To Say Dies feature on my card. I've managed to use four other die sets ... who was it who claimed to her husband, all those years ago, that making her own cards would save money?! 😂 I cut the balloon from Azure Afternoon card, and sponged Azure Afternoon ink around the edges after stamping the sentiment in Blueberry Bushel ink. The long garland stamp from Beautiful Balloons was used to create my background. I stamped it on Basic White card, using Azure Afternoon, Lemon Lime Twist and Blueberry Bushel inks. After cutting the stamped piece out using a Scalloped Contours Die, I adhered it to a Radiating Stitches Die-Cut panel cut from Azure Afternoon card. The "Celebrate" was cut from Azure Afternoon and Basic White card, using one of the numerous dies from the fabulous Wanted To Say Die set. I popped up the balloon and this die-cut sentiment on Stampin' Dimensionals. Using the smaller of the two star dies from Beautiful Balloons, I cut one star from each of the three colours of card. I embossed them with a Basics 3D embossing folder, and sponged around the edges of each star with ink matched to the cardstock colour. The gorgeous Lemon Lime Twist and Blueberry Bushel shiny embellishments are from the Tinsel Gems Four-Pack. Because the largest of the Radiating Stitches Dies is designed to fit a US-sized card, it doesn't quite extend to the size of our A5 cards in Australia/NZ. I added a couple of die-cut pieces of card to create a bit of trim to the bottom of the Radiating Stitches piece. The Lemon-Lime Twist piece of card was cut with a Deckled Rectangles Die, and the Blueberry Bushel loopy details were cut from part of a Scalloped Contours frame die.

Make this Beautiful Balloons Birthday Card with the new Bright & Beautiful Designer Paper and Savvy Sketch 132!❤️
Hello stampers. I'm very excited to share one of the new bundles from the 2023-2024 Annual Catalogue, Beautiful Balloons. This versatile bundle can be used for a range of themes and celebrations. I have used a combination of dies and stamps, as well as the co ordinating DSP Bright and Beautiful, to make these cards. The first card features one of the returning colours, Berry Burst, with highlights of Bubble Bath and Fresh Freesia. The background DSP is a piece from the Bright and Beautiful paper pack. The next card uses a couple of the new blues in the colour range. The blues are Misty Moonlight and Azure Afternoon and are both in the Bright and Beautiful paper pack. Again a couple of strips of Bright and Beautiful are behind the main image. The black and gold card uses one of the Beautiful Balloon dies and the streamer stamp from the Beautiful Balloons stamp set. A couple of the balloons were cut from discontinued Silver and Gold DSP and sponged black with Memento Black ink and a Sponge Dauber. The top balloon was stamped with the balloon stamp then heat embossed with gold emboss powder. The last two gold balloons are cut from Distressed Gold Paper and Gold Foil Paper. I added the balloon strings with a Black Marker. The last card has balloons stamped in Lemon Lime Twist, Lemon Lolly, Bubble Bath, Azure Afternoon and Fresh Freesia. Once again the colours co ordinated with a piece of Bright and Beautiful DSP and some Lemon Lime Twist Ribbon. I hope I have inspired you to have a play with this wonderful set. Come back soon for more new catalogue ideas. If you live in Melbourne you are very welcome to join my catalogue launch on the 6th of May, contact me for more details. Thanks for visiting, Rachel

Bookbinding Fun Fold Cards are simple to make and fun to give. I’ve made them in the past but it’s always good to put a new twist on them with different papers and stamp sets.
Hello Peeps !!! Happy Friday !!! This Beautiful Balloons stamp set and Biggest Wish stamp set make a good pair. I started with an embossed background, a strip of Lemon Lime Twist die cut then using the Countryside die. The 2 balloons were stamped and die cut, the other one was die cut using a designer paper. I used Misty Moonlight and lemon Lime twist for the sentiment and added the rhinestones and baker's twine. Hope you like it. Thanks for stopping by.

Welcome to the Stamp Review Crew's Beautiful Balloons edition! The "Crew" is a group of Stampin' Up! demonstrators from around the world who pick a stamp set or bundle to highlight on the first and third Mondays of each month, with a bonus hop if there is a fifth Monday. If you landed here from Jay's blog, welcome! There are five of us today, and you can see the blog roll by clicking the graphic above. Beautiful Balloons is a 16 piece photopolymer stamp set that has a 13 piece die set to match. If you purchase both, you get the 10% bundle discount. This is just the most awesome set for celebrating, whether birthdays, graduations, new babies, accomplishments, new homes, or just about anything! There is a lovely suite of coordinating DSP and Specialty DSP, as well. Today I have a simple card using the balloon die cuts and the streamer stamps. This would be an easy card to make multiples of, in various colors, to have handy! I had more ideas, but ran out of time due to life getting in the way of my crafting. (Darn adulting, lol.) Guess I'll save them for another time. So that's it for today. Click "Next" to see what Mike over at Stampin-Style has created, or "Previous" to visit Jay again. Thanks for stopping by!
Make this Beautiful Balloons Birthday Card with the new Bright & Beautiful Designer Paper and Savvy Sketch 132!❤️
Some terrific tips for taking the boxy front away from a Shaker Card - today's card uses a hidden box method that puts the shaker box UNDER the card front, for a cleaner finished look. The Beautiful Balloons stamps and dies create perfect shaker cards with their selection of die cut elements, including the perfect triple balloon die. No guess work to placement - just place your die and cut the window!

Beautiful Ballons were the focus for my in person and virtual classes last month. Three fun celebration cards using a fabulous new bundle.
The Beautiful Balloons bundle is one of my favourites in the new Stampin' Up! Annual Catalogue. Today's card was made with the stamps, Bright & Beautiful Designer Series Paper, and the awesome new Wanted to Say Dies. The background paper has an ombre effect, and irregular stripes. I stamped small balloons and confetti directly onto the paper, using Lost Lagoon ink for the top half, and Pretty Peacock ink for the bottom half. The balloons were stamped on Basic White card, using Pool Party, Lost Lagoon and Pretty Peacock inks. After cutting out this piece with a Deckled Rectangles Die, I stamped tiny stars and dots in Pool Party ink, just on the bottom third. I used Memento Tuxedo Black ink to stamp the balloon strings. The focal piece was matted onto a slightly larger Deckled Rectangle, die cut from Pretty Peacock card. I sponged around the edges with Pretty Peacock ink, and added Loose Frosted Dots (stuck on with tiny dots of liquid glue). Check out that gorgeous Lost Lagoon Bordered Ribbon. I love the mottled colour, and the slightly rustic texture. I am also loving the new Wanted To Say Dies .... I'm a sucker for any word dies that create two layers, so a sentiment can be matted or used on its own. I die-cut the top layer from Lost Lagoon card (using Adhesive Sheet on the card before cutting, so it created a sticker for easy application to the white layer). Listed below are all the products I used to make this card.

Beautiful Balloons Graduation Card shows how to make a celebratory card using Stampin' Up! rubber stamps, ink, and paper.
Hello everyone, Firstly I apologise that I may not have a card to post every day over the next 2 weeks as I am away. I was hoping to get enough cards made before leaving but ran out of time. As you probably know the new catalogue is now available so I am using the Beautiful Balloons Bundle (#161457) on this card. I made this card before the end of the previous catalogue so I have used 2 of the now retired products. I stamped the ribbons for the balloons onto the Basic White card front (#159228) with Bubble Bath ink (#161664). I dry embossed the card front with the spots from the Basic 3D Embossing Folders (#161598). The edges were daubered with Gorgeous Grape ink (# 147099) then attached it to the Basic White base card. The Gold Fine Shimmmer paper (which is now retired) was cut with a die from the Beautiful Balloons Dies (#161456). I threaded the Gorgeous Grape ribbon (sorry, also retired) through the die cut piece. This was attached to the card front. The balloons from the Beautiful Balloons stamp set were stamped with Bubble Bath ink, Highland Heather ink (#147103) and Gorgeous Grape ink. For the larger balloon and using VersaMark (#102283), I then stamped it with a different image and embossed this with Gold Stampin’ Emboss Powder (#155555). This was set with the Heat Tool (#129056). The balloons were cut with the Beautiful Balloons dies. The label is cut from the same set of dies, then I stamped “Happy Birthday” from the Beautiful Balloons stamp set with Gorgeous Grape ink. The balloons and the sentiment were attached with Stampin’ Dimensionals (#104430). The Gold Simply Elegant Trim (#155766) was threaded through the label. “Love what you do and share what you love.” INSPIRE. CREATE. SHARE. lesleyjendra.stampinup.net [email protected]

I've sure been enjoying playing with new products from the new Annual Catalog by Stampin' Up! The Bright & Beautiful suite is one we could pre-order early as a Demonstrator. Here's one of my recent projects: I made it with my Flowerbug's Team on our monthly Zoom gathering. It was a mystery card designed by Candace. My colors include Fresh Freesia, Blueberry Bushel and white. I placed the top panel on the left edge of the front card fold, adding...
Hello everyone, I am sure my 11 year old grand-daughter will love this fancy fold card made with the Beautiful Balloons Bundle (#161457). Thus is an easy fancy fold card. The Berry Burst base card (#144249) is cut at 29cm x 14.5cm and scored at 14.5cm, making a square card. I scored the card front from the top right corner to the bottom left corner. I cut a piece of the Bright & Beautiful Designer Series Paper (#161449) 13.5cm x 13.5cm and cut in half diagonally and attached to the front of the card. I cut another piece of the DSP 8cm square and matted this with Berry Burst (9cm square). This was attached to the bottom part of the triangle only. The balloons from the Beautiful Balloons stamp set (#161450) were stamped with Berry Burst ink (#147143) and Bubble Bath ink (#161664) and cut with the Beautiful Balloons dies (#161456). These were attached to the card with Stampin’ Dimensionals (#104430) and Mini Glue Dots (#103683). The sentiments are from the Beautiful Balloons stamp set & stamped with Berry Burst ink. The sentiment on the front was cut with a retired Frosted Flurry die and the inside sentiment with a Beautiful Balloons die. I dry embossed the inside Bubble Bath card (#161727) with a retired Bouquet Of Love Embossing Folder. The Happy Birthday label was attached with Stampin’ Dimensionals. This holds the card in place as shown in the first photo. I cut the Silver Foil (#156457) hearts & stars using dies from the Cracker & Treat Box (#159182). These were backed with Adhesive Sheet (#152334) and attached to the card. “Love what you do and share what you love.” INSPIRE. CREATE.
