It only happens once a year, and today’s the day! ?
Until midnight tonight (Thursday 18th September), you can save 15% off all stamp sets and stamp tools in the Stampin’ Up! store. If you’ve been eyeing a set (or three!) this is the perfect time to pop them into your cart.
A few things to know:
When: Thursday 18th September – ends midnight (Syd/Mel time)
What’s included: Stamp sets and stamping tools as shown here.
What’s not included: Bundles and Last Chance items.
Extra perk: Orders over $35 also earn Stampin’ Rewards – that’s 10% back in product credit. And you’ll still get the September tutorial bundle from me, as a thank you gift.
Why today is the day to shop
Stamp sets are the backbone of our craft rooms. Whether you’re making Christmas cards, birthday cards, or just-because projects, the right stamp can carry the whole design.
But the sale is more than just stamps! Add in a trusty stamp tool (hello, Stampin’ Pierce mat, grid paper and Stampin’ Scrub!) and there’s plenty of blocks on sale too.
Have fun! Don’t forget, it ends midnight tonight (Thursday).
Looking for a unique handmade Christmas card idea? This Split Panel Card design, created with the Stampin’ Up! Jolly Delivery bundle, is a fun fold that makes a big impact while still being surprisingly simple to put together.
Welcome to the September IDEAS Blog Hop! This month our theme is Family Celebrations. It’s such a broad and joyful theme – we could be celebrating a new baby, a milestone birthday, Halloween, Thanksgiving, or even Christmas.
However your family comes together, it’s those little traditions that make memories so special.
My Project: Jolly Delivery Split Panel Card & Treat Box
This month I designed a split panel card that’s perfect for displaying. I couldn’t resist creating with one of the new bundles from the Sep-Dec Mini Catalogue (read more about the latest product launches here).
The Jolly Delivery stamp and die bundle is full of cheerful, festive images – perfect for Christmas crafting. It includes coordinating dies that make cutting out your stamped images quick and easy. For this project, I combined the bundle with coordinating cardstock and paper to create a card that’s both eye-catching and fun to make.
I created a split panel card, featuring a dog on the front delivering a letter to a post box! Inside the card we have stamped and die-cut mail.
And because I couldn’t stop at just one project, I also created a matching treat box – the perfect little extra for chocolates or tiny gifts. Together, the card and box make a fun set that captures the spirit of celebrating with family near and far. You can find all the details for the Jolly Holiday treat box in the tutorial.
Where to Find the Full Tutorial
Want to make this card yourself? The full step-by-step instructions with measurements are included in this month’s IDEAS Tutorial Bundle.
This exclusive bundle includes multiple tutorials from Stampin’ Up! demonstrators around the world and is available:
Free with a $50 AUD order placed through my online store, OR
Available to purchase it on its own if you’d prefer, for just $14 AUD.
Inside the tutorial, you’ll get the exact measurements, cutting guide, and assembly steps so you can recreate this project with confidence.

Here’s a quick look at what’s happening right now…
1. Stampin’ Up! September–December 2025 Mini Catalogue

And as always, if you’re in Australia and would like your own hard copy to flick through, just reach out and I’ll pop one in the mail for you.
2. Stampin’ Up! September 2025 Online Exclusives
Also launching today is the latest release of the Stampin’ Up! Online Exclusives. These special items don’t appear in any catalogue – they’re only available online and while supplies last. That means once they’re gone, they’re gone!
Kits are such a fun and easy way to craft – everything you need is included in the box. Today we have two brand-new all-inclusive Stampin’ Up! kits:
Road to Christmas Kit [166227] – $30.00 AUD Create 8 festive cards with a nostalgic red truck design. No stamping required – just assemble! Quick, easy, and the perfect way to enjoy a creative fix without fuss.
Handmade & Heartfelt Kit [166213] – $56.00 AUD Now, this one’s extra special. Not only do you make 10 beautiful cards with peek-through and layered details, but you’ll also get a coordinating storage box to organise them. And even better… this is the exact kit we’ll be using for the FREE World Card Making Day craft-along event!
World Card Making Day 2025 – Free Virtual Event
Save the date – Saturday 4th October 2025 (2pm in Melbourne/Sydney time, check your local time zone). Join thousands of cardmakers around the world for a free online event hosted by Stampin’ Up! presenters. You can craft along using the Handmade & Heartfelt Kit or simply watch for inspiration.
The first round of Product Shares for the new catalogue is now full (thank you for your support!), but due to demand I’m opening another round. It’s the perfect way to sample a little of everything – papers, ribbons, embellishments – without buying full packs.
If you haven’t already, don’t forget to sign up for my fortnightly Stamped & Delivered Newsletter. Each issue includes a free tutorial, handy tips, and creative inspiration.
It’s a big day for crafters! What do you think of the new Stampin’ Up! September 2025 releases? I’d love to hear which products are on your wish list!
