TAGS: Jolly, Jingle, Believe!!

Jingle Jingle was the one Christmas set I knew I had to have from the July-December mini. Well. And the Gnomes…and the Caroling Mice…and Leaves of Holly…who can resist a good Christmas stamp set? And it’s 15% off until the 18th!

  • Stamps: Jingle Jingle
  • Color Palette: Basic White, Real Red, Daffodil Delight, Soft Succulent
  • Accessories: Big Boss, Tailored Tags dies, retired ribbons

Tailored Tags is a lifesaver and it’s 20% off until the 18th!! I just treated myself to a second set so that I could cut them out even faster. You can double up Basic White card stock and cut two layers at once if you have fresh cutting pads. With two sets of dies, that means I can cut four at a time.

These are super simple by design. Sure, you could fussy cut BELIEVE because it’s mostly straight lines. You could emboss the stars and add bling, too. But this is simple stamping in its most pure form and when you’re busy, busy, busy, it’s the difference between imagined and done.

Can you stand that Santa hat? It can pair with so many other stamps.

I briefly considered adding the Flat Jingle Bell Trinkets to JINGLE. It would be the perfect touch, but it would be extra. This time of year, you don’t have to do EVERYTHING over the top. Choose where to invest your effort and let simple be just that!

Put some Tailored Tags and Jingle Jingle stamps in your shopping cart and you’ll have a beautiful stack of tags in no time. You’ll feel so proud that you got it done.

NOVEMBER 2022 DIY: Flowers of Home

This month it’s more die cuts and less stamping. When you’re only making one of something, all that cranking of the Big Boss isn’t such a big deal:

  • Stamps: Peaceful Deer (sentiment)
  • Color Palette: Basic White, Old Olive, Crushed Curry, Cajun Craze, Soft Suede, Pear Pizazz, Pumpkin Pie
  • Accessories: Big Boss, Flowers of Home dies, Textural Elements, Stampin’ Write markers, Linen Thread, Stampin’ Dimensionals

I colored the Textural Elements (currently unavailable, expected this week) with Stampin’ Write markers. I used Pumpkin Pie for the “berries” and added just a touch of Cajun Craze to them at the stem. The stems themselves are Old Olive (as much as I love so many other greens, Old Olive is my go-to green!)

I cut a BUNCH of these little branch-bits and started playing. It’s a good thing I cut a lot: I accidentally adhered the first round to the wrong calendar. It looked great, but nope. Calendar so nice, I made it twice.

It’s hard to believe today is November 1st. That means the official end of hurricane season (yay!), but we’re still waiting for the weather to turn a little cooler. Soon the humpback whales will arrive from Alaska, and we’ll watch – and listen – for them. Did you know if you go into the ocean during whale season and put your head underwater you’re likely to hear them sing? Well, now you do.

Take minute to see what Cheryl and Crystal have created for November. You can make your own calendar if you like – details are below. Leave me a comment and let me know your favorite month so far in 2022. And as always, you can shop HERE.

October 2022 DIY: Hello Harvest

Don’t you love a big, round pumpkin? I’d prefer to look at one all month versus a jack-o-lantern, so I chose Hello Harvest for my October 2022 DIY calendar:

#mauistamper #stampinup #harvesthello #diy #2022calendar #DIYeaselcalendar #pumpkin #fall
  • Stamps: Harvest Hello
  • Color Palette: Pumpkin Pie, Cajun Craze, Daffodil Delight, Garden Green, Basic White
  • Accessories: Big Boss, Rustic Pumpkin dies, Stampin’ Blends, Champagne Jewels, DIY Easel Calendar template, multipurpose glue

I took a chance and stamped the pumpkin with Cajun Craze ink. We recommend Memento to work with Stampin’ Blends because it doesn’t run, so I had to be careful not to overdo my brush strokes over the stamped portion of the image. I was feeling a little rebellious 😉

I inked up the leaves and then stamped them off. I chose the ones I liked best to die cut and added them with the swirly bits. The pumpkin is on dimensionals, and a few gems add some sparkle.

#mauistamper #stampinup #harvesthello #diy #2022calendar #DIYeaselcalendar #pumpkin #fall

I began with Daffodil in the belly of the pumpkin to get that warm glow, then worked my way out with Pumpkin Pie and Cajun Craze. This is a very satisfying image to color – I recommend it!

Please take a moment to see what my dear friends Crystal and Cheryl have done for October 2022. We really enjoy sharing these calendars with you every month, and we hope you enjoy seeing them!

A Cauldron of Bats: Design a Treat Box Dies

I am a word nerd. (Yes, I WORDLE.) So when I discovered the collective noun for bats is CAULDRON, I had to tell everyone I knew. Well, I started out by telling my family in our group chat, and now I’m telling all of you, so I think that’s everyone!

#mauistamper #stampinup #designatreat #bat #halloween #trickortreat #halloweentreat #diy
  • Stamps: Design a Treat
  • Color Palette: Black and White
  • Accessories: Big Boss, Design a Treat dies, Perfectly Penciled DSP (and a few sheets of retired B&W), Amber Gems, Tear n Tape (TnT)

Those Amber Gems from the Rustic Harvest Suite give the perfect spooky stare, don’t they? And that cute little tag is not only part of the Design a Treat dies, but there are THREE of them!! And since our Basic White card stock is a little lighter weight than standard card stock, you can cut two at once – which means I was cutting 6 in one crank of the Big Boss!!!

#mauistamper #stampinup #designatreat #bat #halloween #trickortreat #halloweentreat #diy

It just so happens that two Hershey Nuggets fit perfectly inside these little boxes. They’re sturdiest when assembled with a little bit of Tear n Tape on the flaps. I experimented with card stock and with dies for the boxes, and while card stock closes more securely across the top, the DSP is much cuter. I cut the batty tops from card stock, and they sit quite firmly across the top, keeping it closed. The advantage of using that batty top is that there’s no adhesive, so the box doesn’t have to be ripped open to enjoy the contents.

I really did make a Cauldron’s worth – this isn’t even half! They’re a single Big Boss cut to produce (run the batty bit at the same time) and they assemble easily. They’re a perfect table favor, office treat, or Halloween decoration. Find them HERE and you’ll have your own Cauldron in a FLASH 💥 (Don’t forget the TnT)

The 2023 DIY Template is now available! It’s just $5 and you may use it to make as many calendars as you like. It includes a page of covers, 12 monthly calendar blocks (4 to a page), and a set of cutting instructions. The blocks are designed to be cut to 3 1/2″ square.

September 2022 DIY: Amazing Year

Sunny September was begging for this sweet bunch of flowers. Amazing Year is a bit of a sleeper set and that was reason enough for me to ink it up and give it a little DIY Easel Calendar Love!

MauiStamper #stampinup #amazingyear #DIY #easelcalendar #september22 #desktopcalendar #stampinupdemo #stampinblends
  • Stamps: Amazing Year
  • Color Palette: Basic White, Memento Black, Daffodil Delight, Pear Pizazz, Old Olive
  • Accessories: Stampin’ Blends, Paper Snips, White Crinkle Ribbon, Stampin’ Dimensionals

This image was very satisfying to color. I stayed with two tones, yellow and green, but played with shades of green to give those tiny leaves dimension. This is one of those “you can’t do it badly” images!

MauiStamper #stampinup #amazingyear #DIY #easelcalendar #september22 #desktopcalendar #stampinupdemo #stampinblends

I combined the two main images from the set to create this package with a bouquet. I also trimmed off the “Enjoy your day” tag and so that I could choose the placement. There isn’t much to keep it attached, so it’s much more secure this way.

Take two minutes to see what Cheryl and Crystal have done with their September DIY calendars. You’ll love their versions!

August 2022 DIY: Count on Me

Our stamps coordinate perfectly within in a set, but I get a tingle when I find new ways to combine stamps between sets. This is a perfect example: Count on Me + Painted Poppies!

Maui Stamper Stampin' Up! 2022 DIY Easel Calendar Painted-Poppies Count-on-Me
  • Count on Me, Painted Poppies
  • Color Palette: Basic White, Memento Black, Crumb Cake, Poppy Parade
  • Accessories: Stampin’ Blends, Paper Snips, Stampin’ Dimensionals

They’re poppies. I had to use Poppy Parade!

This is a simple project, if you don’t count fussy cutting the bear. Nearly all of my calendars are simple by nature, and I that’s why I love making them. AND I have news: The 2023 template is ready!

July 2022 DIY: Hippest Hippos

Get ready for these Hippos! Stampin’ Up! always features at least one cute li’l critter for Sale-a-bration, and this catalog is no different. Just look at those little finger-and-tony-nails*

a small calendar on an easel with a purple hippo and palm trees
  • Stamps: Hippest Hippo (SAB), Paradise Palms
  • Color Palette: Basic White, Memento Black, Fresh Freesia, Pool Party, Polished Pink, Granny Apple Green, Crumb Cake, Daffodil Delight, Flirty Flamingo
  • Accessories: Big/Baby Boss, Hippo dies, Palm dies, Stampin’ Blends, Stampin’ Dimensionals

*Yes, I know the correct word is toenails, but my first born called them tony nails and that is so much better.

Look at that winky eye! That sassy hip! You know this girl is the life of the party!!!

The Hippo dies are available separately from the Hippest Hippo stamps so that you can budget your purchases and still have both. The dies are a must-have not just for the hippos but for all the accessories: glasses, scuba gear, hearts, flowers, a boat, an umbrella, and the wave you see here. I’ve had a hippo fest all week long, so plan on seeing more! They may or may not all be purple 😁


Coloring the hippos with Stampin’ Blends is easy, and while you would be within your rights to choose Gray Granite or Crumb Cake, I am giving you my permission, nay, my blessing, to make your hippo any color you like. Call it creative license.

As always, Cheryl and Crystal have created July 22 DIY calendars as well. I hope you’ll take a look and see what they’ve done, and then take a moment to check out the Online Store to see all the wonderful Sale-a-bration options.

June 2022 DIY: A Sparkling Moon

The Floating Sunset technique is reappearing today as the Sparkling Moon for the 2022 June DIY Easel calendar! I have a lot of ideas in my head for this technique – it’s fun, it’s easy, it uses scraps, and I love the result.

June calendar with a three quarter circle and background of stars
  • Stamps: Sparkle of the Season
  • Color Palette: Basic White, Bermuda Bay, Daffodil Delight, Tranquil Tide for mat (retired In Color)
  • Accessories: Stamp Cut and Emboss Machine, window sheets, layering circle dies, watercolor paper, water painter, ink refill, Wink of Stella, Stampin’ Dimensionals

Trust me, the Stella is there and it is very sparkly. I had some odd-size pieces of watercolor paper left over from the Floating Sunset cards, so I watercolored them with Bermuda Bay ink refills and cut them into strips. I started with a pretty dilute solution and added more drops of ink as I went along, but you could just as easily start with a stronger solution and dilute it with water as you work.

This technique has my mind spinning: I’m going to try it with Designer Series Paper next. So many options!

MAY 2022 DIY: Lovely You

I’m conflicted: do I show you Last Chance stamps that I’ll really miss, or new 22-23 goodies I can’t wait to share?? What if I can do both things??

  • Stamps: Lovely You (Last Chance), Here Together, Forever Fern
  • Color Palette: Basic White, Orchid Oasis, Polished Pink, Parakeet Party, Daffodil Delight
  • Accessories: Masking paper

TRUTH: Masking paper is coming in the 22-23 Annual Catalog and I cannot wait to get my hands on it, but it was not available for pre-order. It will be on my first order, though!! I used a sticky note in this case, but one of the advantages of masking paper is that it adheres on all edges. Stand by for updates!

A small calendar page decorated with floral stamps and the message Love Changes Everything

Retiring Lovely You features petite images, perfect for accenting, and wonderful sentiments in a block/script font combination. It’s the sentiments that I’ll miss the most.

22-23 Sneak Peek: Nature’s Prints

My Stampin’ Up! Box o’ Goodies arrived last week, and I’ve spent this weekend playing. My first tasks was to create some goodies for Maui Stampers teammates who are attending a virtual event together the end of the month. It was a perfect opportunity to try out the 22-24 In Colors:

  • Stamps: Nature’s Prints*
  • Color Palette: Parakeet Party*, Orchid Opulence*, Starry Sky*, Basic White
  • Accessories: Big Boss, Stylish Shapes* dies, Tear n Tape

*Sneak Peek products from the 22-23 Annual Catalog releasing on May 3, 2022

Sticky Note packaging made with Stampin' Up! new In Colors Parakeet Party Orchid Opulence Starry Sky using the new Natures Prints stamp set

I came up with this modified matchbook design for a sticky note cover to make it a little easier to open and close – at least, I think so!

Sticky Note packaging made with Stampin' Up! new In Colors Parakeet Party Orchid Opulence Starry Sky using the new Natures Prints stamp set

That Parakeet Party 1/2″ band slides up and down on the bottom flap to create a closure around the top flap. The new stitched square from the Stylish Shapes dies (oh, will I use these!!) fits perfectly on the top.

You can just barely see that band in the closed position underneath the Stylish Shapes Square.

Ready for that new catalog? Join Stampin’ Up! and the Maui Stamper team to get an advance order, or wait patiently for the release on May 3, 2022. It’s your choice!
