Paper Party Live is Here
Today is Paper Party Live, and honestly, this is one of my favorite days of the week. I absolutely love going live on YouTube and spending time crafting with fellow paper lovers from all over. There’s something so special about creating together in real time, sharing ideas, and just having fun with paper, ink, and dies.

For January, Paper Party Live is all about the Cute as a Bug Suite, and I couldn’t be more smitten with it. This suite includes the Sweet Bugs stamp set, coordinating dies, adorable Designer Series Paper, ladybug and clear dots embellishments, and that gorgeous Old Olive ribbon that seems to work with just about everything. It’s playful, cheerful, and full of personality, which makes it perfect for winter crafting when we could all use a little extra joy.
I sent out January Make & Take kits to my team members and to customers who placed a qualifying order in December. Those kits include all four projects for the month, and everyone also received a complimentary PDF tutorial that walks through the projects step by step, plus a bonus card that’s exclusive to the tutorial. I love being able to spoil my people with extra goodies like that. The PDF tutorial for these projects is free for my team members and for customers who placed a qualifying order. If you didn’t qualify but would still love the tutorial, it’s available for purchase on my website, and you’ll find a button located below to grab it.
The card I’m making during today’s Live is one I CASEd from the Stampin’ Up! website for this suite, but I streamlined it and adjusted it to a standard card size so it’s easy to recreate.

I do briefly show the bonus card during Paper Party Live, and it makes fantastic use of the Designer Series Paper as well. I won’t go into detail on that one here because it’s part of the bonus content included in the PDF tutorial, and I want that to stay special for those who receive or purchase the tutorial. I will say this, though—it’s every bit as fun and charming as the main card and really highlights just how versatile this DSP is.
Below, you’ll find the space where the Paper Party Live video is embedded so you can watch, craft along, or simply enjoy the inspiration whenever it works for you.
I can’t wait to share even more Cute as a Bug projects next week—this suite has so much creative potential, and we’re just getting started.
