Welcome to Stampers Club! I’m Karen Trelfa, an independent Stampin’ Up demonstrator, and every month I host a free online card class where we make three cards together using one featured bundle. This month we made three adorable cards using the Stampin’ Up Cutest Crew Bundle — and whether you are a cat person, a bird person, or a dog person, there is a card in this class for you.
If you missed the live class you can catch the full replay right here and create these cards right along with me. Grab your kit if you have it, download the cutting guide below, and let’s get stamping.

💛 The Cutest Crew Cards We Made
🐱 Card 1 — Have the Best Day (Stampin Up Cutest Crew Cat Card)
This sweet little cat card uses Summer Splash card stock as the base with Boho Vibes Designer Series Paper layered on top. The row of die cut kitty cats is stamped in Memento Black and colored with Smoky Slate blends — a dark pass around the edges and a light fill through the middle gives them that beautiful soft shading without a lot of blending time. A Summer Splash ribbon knot and a few Calypso Coral butterfly die cuts finish it off perfectly. Summer Splash is a retiring color so if you love this card, now is the time to grab it.
🐦 Card 2 — Happy Birthday (Stampin Up Cutest Crew Bird Card)
The bird card is built around a Cajun Craze card stock base with Boho Vibes DSP and a Cloud Cover. The little birds are stamped on a circle and an extra one on scrap Basic White, colored with Daffodil Delight blends, die cut and popped up on a Calypso Coral die cut circle using mini dimensionals. This is exactly the kind of card that looks complicated but comes together quickly and easily — perfect for anyone who wants beautiful results without spending hours at the craft table. The Spotlight on Nature die gives the Calypso Coral circle that pretty decorative edge.
🐶 Card 3 — So Glad We’re Friends (Stampin Up Cutest Crew Dog Card)
The dog card is my personal favorite of the three. It starts with a Peach Pie card stock base then a layer of Basic White embossed with the spotted dotted circles embossing folder for gorgeous texture, and the die cut puppy dogs are colored with light gray blends for soft shading. A Cajun Craze paw print border strip runs across the center of the card and a circle of Boho Vibes DSP adds a fun pop of pattern. Peach Pie is also on the retiring list so this is one to grab before it is gone.
✂️ Cutest Crew Cutting Guide
I’ve put together a simple cutting guide with all the measurements for all three cards so you can jump right in:
🧠 What You’ll Learn in This Class
- How to use blends to add shading quickly without a lot of coloring time
- Simple ways to add dimension and texture with embossing folders and dimensionals
- Easy ribbon tricks even if you have already glued your layers down
- How to use the Cutest Crew dies to get clean polished results every time
✨ Supplies Used in This Class
All three cards were made using the Cutest Crew Bundle along with Boho Vibes Designer Series Paper, Summer Splash, Cajun Craze, and Peach Pie card stocks. We also used a couple of embossing folders for texture, Smoky Slate, Daffodil Delight, Calypso Coral, and Old Olive blends for coloring, and Memento Black ink for stamping. Note that Summer Splash and Peach Pie are both retiring colors — if you love these cards you will want to grab those before they are gone.
