Did You Know? May 2026 Edition: New Product You Don’t Want to Miss!
Hello crafters, it’s Shari Carroll here with you for a new edition of our popular Did You Know series! Today I’m celebrating some of the new products that we have scouted and developed that you may find interesting.
TIM HOLTZ IDEA-OLOGY PALETTE PAPER COLLECTIONS FOR 2026
New for 2026, Tim Holtz Idea-ology are releasing 3 new Paper Palette Collections every other month.
Kicking off in January, we saw Pink, Red, and Orange. These colors were a welcome relief from Winter doldrums.
As we were trying to step into Spring, beautiful tones of Yellow, Neutral, and Green were released for March.
And now for May, the collections bring us teal, indigo, and blue reminding us of the warm Summer months ahead.
Each collection features 12 double-sided designs filled with nostalgic patterns, subtle textures, and timeless ephemera style, making them perfect for cardmaking, scrapbooking, journaling, and mixed media.
CREATIVE OVERLAYS
We’ve recently came out with Create Overlay acetate sheets. Each package contains four crystal clear beautifully designed A2 sheets. You can use them as they are as a full sheet over decorative papers, or cut them up to use portions for collaging.
TIP: Use transfer foil and a laminator to enhance the black toner ink. Look closely and place the toner side up (the toner looks dull), cover with transfer foil (shiny side up) and place into a heated laminator.
SIMON SAYS STAMP ARTFUL PALETTE LAYERING TEMPLATES
We have developed an amazing set of templates and dies to help with collage card designs.
The Simon Says Stamp Artful Palette layering templates are a set of five A2-sized templates designed to help you build balanced, eye-catching card layouts. Pair these templates with the coordinating dies that include additional accent shapes like hearts, circles, and butterflies giving you even more options for layering and embellishing.
TIP: Ink blend through the templates to start your card design and die cut some of the elements to put over top.
I hope these tips have helped you learn about some of the new items in our store! Thanks for tuning in today and spending some time with me!

Looks like you have a great release. I love all of the new things shown. You always have the best releases. Thank you for the inspiration today.
I always look forward to the Did You Know series! These product spotlights are so helpful for discovering new tools and supplies I might have overlooked. The way you demonstrate each product really helps me decide what to add to my wishlist. Thanks for keeping us in the loop with all the latest releases and restocks!
Love these monthly product reveals! The May 2026 edition has some really exciting new products that I can already see being perfect for my cardmaking projects. The color palette especially caught my eye. I have been working on a new image editing tool at nanobananapro.pics that would be great for creating custom sentiment labels to go with these new stamp sets. Thanks for always keeping us in the loop with what is new!
This May 2026 release is fantastic — the new products always get my creative juices flowing! I love how Simon Says Stamp keeps bringing fresh designs each month. Over at nanobananapro.pics we have been experimenting with AI-generated card designs and the quality these days is remarkable. Looking forward to seeing what everyone creates with this new release!
