Stampin Up sneak peek: Otterly Adorable Suite card and 12x12" scrapbook page
Do you love otters? Who doesn’t, right? I was so excited to see the new Otterly Adorable Suite Collection in the Stampin’ Up!® Online Exclusives Collection. This is available to demonstrators to pre-order now, and goes live to customers on 5th November 2024.
The Otterly Adorable Suite Collection from Stampin’ Up!® comprises the Otterly Amazing bundle of stamps and dies, Otterly Adorable Designer Series Paper, Lost Lagoon Soft Cording and Riverside Irregular Pearls.
I used the bundle and Designer Series Paper to create a 12x12" scrapbook page and a card.

Eight 12x12 scrapbook pages using Autumn to Remember Kit from Stampin’ Up!®
Have you tried one of the new Stampin’ Up!® scrapbooking workshop kits yet?
I dipped my toe in by ordering the Autumn to Remember Scrapbooking Workshop Kit (166502). I have never scrapbooked in this way, with kits and instructions, so I wanted to see how it works.
I was impressed! The Autumn to Remember Scrapbooking Workshop Kit makes six pages – three double-page spreads – with lots of leftover elements. Cutting instructions are really clear, so you know which way to cut and which way the pattern should go. There are clear photos of the finished projects, as well as paler versions of the projects with each piece clearly labelled (1A, 1B, etc) so you know which goes where.
In case you don’t have your photos ready – as I didn’t for most of these pages – there are photo place holders which are brilliant for getting your projects moving. I know I always used to get stuck by not having my photos ready.
The sheets of pop-out die-cuts are all labelled on the back, too, with the number of the relevant project. This is a really good detail if you like to stick closely to the instructions.
So did I stick closely to the instructions in the Autumn to Remember Scrapbooking Workshop Kit? What do you think?
