Velvet Meadow Specialty Designer Series Paper

by | May 6, 2026 | You Make the World a Better Place

I am using new products on my card today. I used the Fern & Flora Bundle, Velvet Meadow Specialty Designer Series Paper, Floral Spray 3D Embossing Folder, and Dreamy Flowers. The Velvet Meadow Specialty Designer Series Paper includes flocked details on some sheets. My card today has flocked details. All of these products are in the May-August 2026 Catalog.

 

 

 

I started off with Bubble Bath cardstock for the base of my card (you can find all the measurements I used below the supply list). Then, I embossed a piece of Basic White cardstock using the Floral Spray 3D Embossing Folder and my Stampin’ Cut & Emboss Machine. Next, I cut a piece of Velvet Meadow Specialty Designer Series Paper across the middle of the embossed Basic White cardstock. Then, I adhered the Basic White embossed cardstock to the card front. 

 

 

Then, I adhered a piece of Velvet Meadow Specialty Designer Series Paper to a piece of Bubble Bath cardstock. I added Stampin’ Dimensionals on the back and adhered it to the card front. I stamped the sentiment onto Basic White cardstock using the Fern & Flora Stamp Set in Berry Burst ink.. I cut the sentiment out using the Fern & Flora Dies. I added Stampin’ Dimensionals to the back, on the right side only, and added it to the front of the card. 

 

 

 

I added three Dreamy Flowers in Berry Burst to the embossed cardstock and added a piece of Basic White cardstock to the inside of the card.

My Story: when I purchased the Starter Kit in 2009, it was solely for the discount. I loved the products and would go through the catalog numerous times from cover to cover every chance I got! The Starter Kit is completely customizable and you can choose what you want. When I joined, the kit was preselected by Stampin’ Up! so I love that you can pick what you want now. I love being a Stampin’ Up! demonstrator! 

The Stampin’ Up! Starter Kit is for someone who loves purchasing Stampin’ Up! products and also loves getting a 20%+ discount! But, it’s also for the person who would like to start their own business and share their love of paper crafting. You never have to sell or have a party (unless you want to). See below for frequently asked questions about the Starter Kit. 

Commonly Asked Questions

  • If I purchase the Starter Kit, do I have to sell Stampin’ Up! products to my family and friends? No, you are under NO obligation to sell. You can be your only customer. Of course once your friends see the cute cards you’re making, they’ll want to buy their stamping supplies from you. 
  • Will I receive a discount on any products I buy?  Yes!! This is the best part! You’ll receive at least a 20% discount on all your purchases. 
  • Do I have to buy/sell a certain amount of product?  The quarterly minimum is $300 in product (which is only $240 after your discount!) that can be from personal orders, online orders or ones from family and friends. The quarters are January – March, April – June, July – September, October – December. Once you join, your quarterly minimum begins during your first FULL quarter.
  • What if I can’t make the quarterly minimum?  You’ll simply be dropped. No one will hassle you. No one will bother you. It truly is risk free to purchase the Starter Kit!

 

Are there other perks to purchasing the Starter Kit? Yes! Here are just a few:

  • The Starter Kit ships FREE! 
  • Approximately a month before new products are released, you’ll be able to participate in a preorder and purchase brand new products ahead of the public
  • Attend Stampin’ Up! events like OnStage
  • Personal purchases of $20 are eligible to receive Stampin’ Rewards. Yes, demonstrators can also receive Stampin’ Rewards! 
  • Complimentary copy of each current catalog from Stampin’ Up! Once the preorder begins, a complimentary copy will be included in your order. If no preorder is made, the catalog will be included in the first order placed during the catalog sales period.
  • Free access to the tutorials I give to my customers!
  • You wouldn’t have to have your quarterly minimum until July 2026
