New Catalog Virtual Card Class September 2026: Christmas Crew, Painted Pumpkins, and Radiant Sunflowers

If you want four awesome cards that carry you from fall right through Christmas, this week’s live is for you. I made all four using bundles from the brand new Stampin’ Up! catalog, and every one of them is designed so you can swap the sentiment and use it for whatever occasion you need.

Watch the full replay above to follow along step by step, or keep reading for a look at everything we made.

Christmas Crew Card with a Coordinating Reindeer

I love little cute things, so the Christmas Crew bundle was an easy yes for me. The stamp set has a reindeer, a snowman, and a bear, plus sweet sentiments like Sending Holly Jolly Wishes and Here for the Cheer, and the dies cut all of it out for you. The bundle is $44.

For the background I wanted a Christmas embossing folder, and the one I had was a mini, so I ran it through my machine once, moved the paper over, and ran it through again to cover the whole panel. There is a tiny crease where the two passes meet, but once you layer your paper over it you cannot see it at all. Those Seasonal Cheer mini embossing folders come three to a pack for $13, with leaves, candy canes, and bats.

I framed the panel with the Scalloped Christmas Cheer Dies, colored my reindeer with Stampin’ Blends, popped him up on Dimensionals, and added a few of the new Adhesive-Backed Sparkle Sequins. You can use any little animal from the set here, so this works as a birthday card just as easily as a Christmas card.

Painted Pumpkins Card with White Heat Embossing and the Rustic Check 3D Embossing Folder

The Painted Pumpkins bundle is $69.25, which is a little higher, but you get the stamp set, the dies, and a set of decorative masks, and it is a whole coordinated suite. There is a gate die that you can actually make open, and a die that stamps and cuts a trio of pumpkins that also works with designer series paper. I have a fall craft along planned around this suite for the end of September, so keep an eye out for that.

For this card I embossed a panel with the new Rustic Check 3D embossing folder, which is $10 and adds instant texture. I stamped the pumpkins, colored them with Blends in Golden Glow, Pool Party and Cajun Craze, and heat embossed the sentiment in white powder for a little shine. If you would rather skip the heat tool, just stamp your sentiment on a scrap of white and layer it on.

A piece of Calypso Coral Copper Bordered Ribbon and a few blue sparkle sequins finished it off. The sentiment reads I hope your day is fabulous, but there is also a hello gourd geous option in the set if you like a pun.

Framed Gate Card with the Radiant Sunflowers and Painted Pumpkins Bundles

This is the one I am putting in a frame in my own home. It was inspired by a card from a demonstrator, Mikaela Titheridge in the UK, and the minute I saw it I had to make it. It uses both bundles, the Painted Pumpkins and the Radiant Sunflowers, so if you did not already want them, this card will talk you into it.

There is no coloring on this one. It is all die cutting and gluing. I die cut the gate in Crumb Cake and brushed a little Crumb Cake ink over it with a blending brush to bring the wood grain to life. Then I die cut pumpkins, sunflowers in Daffodil Delight, leaves, and little stems, and layered everything over a Pretty Peacock card base embossed with the Rustic Check 3D folder.

For the sentiment I wanted something a little more heartfelt than thank you, so I stamped I’m grateful for your kindness from the Simply Leaves stamp set. Take your time tucking the pieces in and this one comes together beautifully. It really does deserve a frame.

Simple Radiant Sunflowers Card with the Softly Woven 3D Embossing Folder

After that fussy card I wanted something sweet and simple, and this Radiant Sunflowers card is it. The bundle is the same one featured in this month’s Owlet Card Club. I embossed the Mossy Meadow with the new Softly Woven 3D embossing folder, which is $12 and gives you a soft linen texture without being too much.

I trimmed one inch off the bottom of a piece of Sunflower Fields designer series paper, glued the larger piece down with a border at the top, then flipped the cut strip and lined it back up. A double wrap of linen thread tied in a bow, the Hello Friend sentiment on a label die from the Radiant Sunflowers set, and a few Painted Patch adhesive-backed dots, and it was done. This card goes together fast.
