The Silly Old Bear Suite is one of those collections that makes you smile the second you look at it. I’ve been completely obsessed with it since it launched — and on this week’s Wednesday Live, we made five cards with it together.
About the Stampin’ Up! Silly Old Bear Suite
If you haven’t seen it yet, the Silly Old Bear Suite is a Winnie the Pooh-themed collection from Stampin’ Up! — and it is just the sweetest thing. Right now it’s only available in the United States, and the complete collection is item number 167634 at $130.
For that you get:
- Sweet Old Friends Bundle (Stamp Set and Dies)
- Sweet Words and Labels Bundle (Stamp Set and Dies)
- Hundred Acre Woods 3D Embossing Folder
- Silly Old Bear 12”x12” DSP
That paper is just incredible. The dies cut the characters right out of the panels — no fussy cutting required for most pieces. And it coordinates beautifully with the 2026–2028 In Colors, especially Barely Blush, Hydrangea Hue, and Golden Glow.
The embossing folder had sold out after I showed it on a previous live — it’s back in stock now, and the whole suite is available!
The 5 Cards We Made

Card 1 — Fun Fold Flap Card (Basic Beige)
A sweet little fun fold card that opens up like a flap — perfect for a gift card holder or a baby card. We used a Basic Beige base, layered in a Designer Series Paper panel, and tucked Eeyore on the inside. So many things you could do with this style.
Card 2 — Hydrangea Hue Scene Card
This one features a beautiful background panel from the DSP — you can see the little tree with the owl peeking out of the door. I fussy cut Winnie the Pooh looking up at the owl and popped him on with dimensionals. The sentiment stamped on the front: “It never hurts to keep looking up.” I love that one so much.
Card 3 — Barely Blush Ribbon Card
This might be my favorite of the night. We used Barely Blush as the card base, wrapped the prettiest Barely Blush ribbon around it and tied a bow, then layered the die-cut labels on top. The sentiment: “The best kind of days are the days spent together.” Eeyore is tucked on the inside with a little plaid paper strip. So soft and pretty — perfect for a baby shower, a thinking-of-you, or a birthday.
Card 4 — Golden Glow Embossed Card
This one uses the 3D embossing folder — and that texture is amazing. We ran Very Vanilla cardstock through it, added a Golden Glow base, and used the Owl die cut on the front. This is a fun fold where the front panel folds back, with a stamped label on the inside for writing. We used the “Old bother” sentiment, which made me laugh every time.
Card 5 — Bonus Earliest Espresso Card
I couldn’t choose between two labels, so I just made both cards! The bonus card uses a warm brown base with a forest panel from the DSP and a Golden Glow die-cut label. We stamped “Old friends are the best friends” on a little strip inside. Piglet joined us on the inside too.
