A Special Card Featuring OnStage Memories

I have such a fun and meaningful card to share with you today. This one was created and sent to me by my amazing team leader, Patty Bennett. It made my day when it arrived, and I love the thoughtful way she designed it! What makes this card extra special is that Patty used photos from the Stampin’ Up! OnStage event we attended together last month. These events are always such a highlight. They are filled with time with friends, creative inspiration, and lots of smiles. Turning those memories into a handmade card is just the sweetest idea.

About the Card Design

Patty used the Capturing Smiles stamp & die bundle to create the camera and film strip. She added photos to the lens and film frames, turning them into the perfect way to capture and share our OnStage memories.

Here’s how she put it all together:

• The camera was stamped onto a piece of Hydrangea Hue (new 2026-28 In Color) and die cut using the Capturing Smiles coordinating dies.
• The filmstrip was die cut from a piece of Black cardstock.
• Photos were trimmed to fit the lens circle and the frames in the film strip.
• The die cuts were adhered to the card front with Stampin’ Dimensionals for added dimension.
• The Everyday Moments sentiment and the cute heart are from the same stamp set and tied it all together perfectly.
• A fun dotted background from the Basic Painted Patterns DSP that will be released on May 5, adds a cheerful, playful touch.

I love how creative and personal this card is! It’s a perfect example of how our products can be used in so many ways to celebrate people, places, and the memories we make.

Patty shares more details and photos on her blog. You can check out her original post here.

This card was such a sweet reminder of an incredible event and the friendships that come with it. I am so grateful to be part of this creative community and so thankful for my sweet friend and mentor Patty Bennett! ❤️
