I had so much fun creating my Halloween Sampler yesterday on my YouTube Live. I love a good sampler, so I created a DIY Halloween Sampler using the Spooky Sweet Suite Collection and the Fright Night Dies, both from the Stampin’ Up! Online Exclusives. It had been a couple of years since I created my last one and I thought it was time for a new one since we our Halloween Suite was so adorable this season, I could not resist

Die Cut 2nd Tree Stump, 2 Branches, and 2 more Hollows in Early Espresso. The reason for this is that the extra Hollow Die does not match the bottom Hollow in the tree trunk.
Glue Branches under trunk and glue Hollo pieces into holes. NOTE: I DID REMOVE THE RIGHT SIDE BRANCH BECAUSE I DID NOT LIKE IT.

Today on another episode of Template Thursday with Tammy I am featuring the Online Exclusive Charming Day Bundle. The Charming Day Bundle is the perfect bundle for the sketch/template I have chosen this week. After not creating for a few days, I had a hard time getting back into the swing of things and this is the very reason I love Mojo Monday Sketches. Today’s card features Mojo Sketch #546.
I used layers of designer paper and soft color tones to let the stamped images really shine. The Charming Day Bundle is so playful yet elegant—it’s one of those sets that can shift beautifully from fun and whimsical to chic and classy depending on how you style it.

PROJECT DIMENSIONS:
Top Folding Card Base in Misty Moonlight 4 1/4″ x 11″ scored at 5 1/2″
Petal Pink Panel embossed in Pressed Flowers 4″ x 5 1/4″
Basic White Panel for inside 4″ x 5 1/4″
DSP Strips – SEE ABOVE MOJO TEMPLATE
2″ Square from Stylish Shapes Dies
During my video, I shared a Designer Series Paper (DSP) Sampler I created using the beautiful Floral Charming DSP. I love making these samplers because they’re a great way to showcase just how stunning the patterns are, along with the coordinating colors that bring the designs to life. To create this sampler, I cut the DSP into 2″ squares and used a 1″ circle punch to punch out coordinating cardstock colors, highlighting how well each shade complements the paper collection.
I had mentioned in the video that my dear friend Patty Bennett shared so additional tips, be sure to click her blog post HERE
Let me know in the comments if you try this sketch or use the Charming Day Bundle—I LOVE seeing what you create! And for more template inspiration click the button bellow for my complete playlist of Template Thursday with Tammy.
Today I created Jumbo Tags for the very first time on Episode 3 of Template Thursday with Tammy. I decided to pull Sketch 4 from the 2025-2026 Annual Catalog to create my Jumbo Tags. 1 Sketch, 2 ways. With this sketch it is perfect to do the same sketch but just make one simple change with the orientation.
PROJECT VIDEO: If you are receiving this in email, please catch the Video HERE
I was inspired by my dear friend Tracy Travis, from Stampin Queen Bee on YouTube, and she also did this sketch and came up with the perfect Template Sizing. The Designer Paper that I am using, is from the Wildflower Birthday Specialty Designer Series Paper Pack which is perfect to make this adorable jumbo tag.
Dimensions:
Main Tag Pretty in Pink 3 1/2″ x 6″
2nd Layer Designer Paper and Basic White Layer for the Back 3 1/4″ x 5 3/4″
The sketches can be found on page 24 in the Annual Catalog and if you turn to page 28, you will find 8 more sketch ideas showcasing scrapbook layouts. This sketch is the original orientation.
Flip it over and add a Basic White Layer to add an additional sentiment and your message.
Just by turning the orientation you can get another fun look.
