New Year, New Calendar - Stampin' Up!® Simply Beautiful

   Happy New Year stamping friends!  I ended up taking more of a break from my stamp room than I intended to over the holidays but now I'm getting back into the swing of things and trying to get my stamp room back in shape now that we're about to transition to the new Stampin' Up!® Jan.-April 2026 mini catalog!  I've got different stacks and piles of supplies as well as a few projects completed in December that didn't get blogged yet!  So much already on my 'to-do' list for 2026!

  This is a fun stand up calendar that my stampers made at our end of the year holiday party.  I figure it's a good time to combine something useful for the new year with upcoming products!  Look for all of these products to be available on Tuesday Jan. 6!

I wanted to show off the gorgeous new Lovely & Beautiful Suite Collection.  The Lovely & Beautiful DSP is just a flower lovers dream with big bold blossoms and gold accents on one side and sweet smaller floral patterns on the opposites.

The design is accented with a stamped flower and leaf from the Simply Beautiful bundle as well as the White with Gold ribbon and Pearlized Faceted Circles for even more sparkle.

  The base is quite simple with just a 5 1/5" x 11 cardstock base, folded in half.  The stand is a 4" x 4" square of the same color, scored at 1/2", 2", and 3 1/2".  The scores on the ends are folded up and adhered to the inside of the base.

  The Old Olive layer is 4" x 5 1/4" and the DSP is 3 3/4" x 5".  The layer behind the calendar is 3 1/4" x 2 1/2".

  Thanks for looking!  Did you stamp today?
