A Sneak Peek of Things to Come…

Sometimes I just open my big mouth and make work for myself…ha! During my summary post for Stampin’ Up!’s 2025 Incentive Trip, I mentioned I would share some of the upcoming products we saw and received. If you missed that post, you can see it here. I have received several messages from folks who are excited to see the new products (who doesn’t love new products?!), so I guess I need to deliver. I tease about it because you know I love to share with you…

I’m going to share a mix of photos in today’s post – some are from the Incentive Trip, and some are from the Fungeon (my craft room back home). I didn’t walk away with all of these goodies, but my suitcase was definitely heavier on the way home.

Each day during the Incentive Trip, Stampin’ Up! hosts a reception room where we can visit with leaders and other demonstrators, stuff our pockets with candies and spin a wheel to earn great gifts (new products or branded products). Here’s the choice we had on one of the days – three new, upcoming stamp set:

We could win either the Perfectly Pears stamp set, Charming Day stamp set or Jolly Holly stamp set. As I understand it, each of these stamp sets will be part of the Online Exclusives that will launch for demonstrators in June and for customers in July. I won the Charming Day stamp set, but I want to share a little bit about each.

Perfectly Pears

Stampin’ Up! unveiled the Perfectly Pears Suite Collection during our opening session, where executives made some projects and shared some fun elements of the collection. Here’s a look at the products in this upcoming Perfectly Pears Suite Collection:

Here are two incredible samples from Stampin’ Up! designers to showcase the products in this new suite:

Charming Day

As I mentioned above, I won the Charming Day stamp set when I spun the wheel in the reception room. Here’s a closer look at this gorgeous stamp set:

Christmas Tags & More

I’m not 100% sure if the Christmas Tags & More 6″x 6″ Specialty Designer Series Paper coordinates with the Jolly Holly stamp set shown above, but I won the paper on another day’s roll. The pack includes 32 pages of 6″ x 6″ designs and 4 pages of cutouts on 6″ x 6″ pages (2 each of the two designs). Here’s a look at the two punchout designs in the pack of papers:

The 6″ x 6″ pages include 8 each of 4 double-sided designs. I love that – makes it so much easier to mass-produce your Christmas cards with these pages. Here’s a look:

Autumn Toile Designer Series Paper 

During another spin of the wheel, I won the Autumn Toile Designer Series Paper, an warm and sweet pack of Fall-themed pages you are going to LOVE. This pack includes 12 pages of 12″ x 12″ designs – 3 each of 4 double-sided designs. Here’s a look:

Make a Memory Scrapbooking Kit

Do you remember this photo from last week’s summary of the Incentive Trip?

That’s me, sharing my excitement with receiving the Make a Memory Scrapbooking Kit during the opening session during the Incentive Trip. All attendees received the kit, which will be one of the new kits released at the beginning of June. Here’s a quick look at what’s inside this cardboard box:

I tried to spread them out on my craft table to give a better look, but it’s REALLY hard to get a good picture of all of these papers! The papers are great, and the sticker sentiments are wonderful, but the punchout elements are my absolute favorite. Here’s a look:

Here are some samples of the scrapbooking pages and some alternative cards that were displayed in the reception room:

2025 Incentive Trip Designer Series Paper

I’d like to please take a step away from the upcoming products to share a really exciting pack of papers we received during the Disney Incentive Trip. The exclusive Designer Series Papers (all 12″ x 12″) are exclusive to the attendees (we each received a pack on the last night). The resort was themed around Mary Poppins, so it was fitting that all of the communications and designs were also Mary Poppins themed. It also makes sense that the exclusive Designer Series Papers were Mary Poppins themed. Here’s a look at six of the designs:

And here’s a look at the other six designs:

How amazing is that pack of papers as a gift? I was happy to flip through the pages and really study each of them. So fun!

Creativity Now

Stampin’ Up! is hosting an online event for demonstrators in June. As part of the Creativity Now event, we are able to pre-order select items from the upcoming Holiday Catalog, which goes live to customers in September. I’m excited to share a look at some of the products we will be using during the Creativity Now event.

Here’s a look at the Peace on Earth Bundle, which include breath-taking sentiments and coordinating dies:

The suite that will be released in the Holiday Mini Catalog includes the Peaceful Garden Designer Series Paper that is versatile for the holidays and beyond. Here’s a look at the designs for six of the pages:

And here’s a look at the other six designs:

The suite also includes the Hues of Blue Flowers embellishments and the Misty Moonlight & Silver-Edged Ribbon:

Thanks for stopping by today!
