Creativity Abounds Blog Hop - January 2026 - Cute as a Bug

Wednesday, 21 January 2026

Time for another Creativity Abounds Blog Hop! We are a group of very keen Stampin’ Up!® Demonstrators from all around the world who are coming together to share our creative ideas with you. We are happy that you can join us and hope that we can inspire you to make creations of your own. You may be starting here or you may have come from someone else's blog - either way there is a list at the end of this post to help you move around all the different blogs and get many amazing ideas. We all have our country listed - so if you are looking for a demonstrator in your country, these demonstrators would love to look after you with your Stampin' Up!® shopping or if you would like to join our Stampin' Up!® teams.

Here's our amazing Creativity Abounds Design Team! We're welcoming Michelle Theriault to our Design Team this month! I can't wait to see all of her amazing designs.

This month our theme is the Cute as a Bug Suite from the Stampin' Up!® Jan to Apr Mini Catalogue! We're so excited to be using this Suite for our upcoming Stamp Camp on February 5 and 6.

Check out this fun pop up box card!

It folds into a standard card so it will fit into a regular envelope!

If you want to learn how to make this card, you can join our Stamp Camp by purchasing the Cute as a Bug Suite! You'll receive 13 Make and Takes PLUS we'll share 13 Bonus Projects, including this card, Live during our Stamp Camp.

Get all of the details for the Stamp Camp!

Here's my card that you will find in the Tutorial!

You can find all of the supplies for this card in my Online Store.

Now it's time to be inspired by all of the Projects in our Blog Hop!

I hope you have been inspired!
