Ideas Blog Hop July 2025

I’m happy to share another creative Blog Hop from IDEAS. 

IDEAS is a team of Stampin' Up Demonstrators from different geographical locations around the world, who collaborate monthly on a huge tutorial, to bring creative projects that range from simple to complex.  Something for everyone!

The IDEAS tutorials feature creations from different designers, so you get a variety of different projects and designs from different creators with different styles and levels of creativity. It really is a cool project and there is something within the project for crafters of all skill levels.  And it's all wrapped up in a bundle so that you can recreate them on your own. Super love this! ❤️

This Month’s theme is a July theme! I chose a beach bag which reminds me of summer.

Super Fun!!!

I used the Notes and Totes stamp bundle (165242) by Stampin’ Up. The Designer Series Paper is the Timeless Plaid

I think the blue-greens lend to the beachy feel, don’t you?

Here's our collage, which is a sneak peak from each designer in this edition of the tutorial bundle.  See it here:

So this month’s IDEAS theme is "Color Me Happy".  I am a color girl. Color is one of the reasons I love to create - and that I love Stampin' Up!

We could focus on the new In-Colors, or come up with our own color creations.  I love going off of the beaten path, so I totally went for the current products that have the most color, in my opinion.  It was also easy for me because these are the products that were on my desk - so I totally went with it.

My project this month uses the Simply Zinnia stamp bundle with coordinating dies.  Have you seen them?  Well, take a look at the Designer Series Paper below.  Isn't it GORG???

Told ya!  I was so excited to finally get my hands on this suite of products. It has been super popular and had sold out.  It's back in the store for now.

My project is a simple and beautiful card that showcases this lovely Designer Series Paper.

Here's our collage, which is a sneak peak from each designer in this edition of the tutorial bundle.  See it here:
