Hi! Did you know that it is 62 days until Christmas???? So, I pulled out the Pretty Poinsettia Bundle(168147), an Online Exclusive, and the Party Alphabet Dies(165263) and made this Christmas card. Christmas is a time of joy so I choose the letters, die-cut them in basic white, and added a bit of Balmy Blue […]

ALL WRAPPED UP
Hi and welcome! Today’s card is all wrapped up in a new collection of stamps and beautiful papers! This includes the Wrapped Greenery Bundle(168487) with that pretty bow and sentiment from the Elegantly Wrapped Bundle(168481). The plaid bottom is one of the gorgeously shiny patterns from the All Wrapped Up Specialty designer series paper(168473). The […]
FROM THE NEIGHBOURHOOD
Hi from the neighbourhood! Today’s card features a small neighbourhood sending Christmas greetings. The Welcome Noel Bundle(168465) created the neighbourhood with help from the Noel Tidings stamp set(168449) for the sentiment. The background papers are all from the Neutral Noel Specialty designer series paper(168448). I’m playing along with this new sketch from Freshly Made Sketches […]
GREEN IS THE THEME
It’s Friday and I’m finishing off this week with pretty shades of green. I haven’t used the Moonlit Flora designer series paper(167737) in a long while so added this design as the focal point!

A BEAUTIFUL GOLDEN BEGONIA
Hi, it’s Friday and I’m ending this week with a beautiful golden begonia. This was created with the Begonia Belle stamp set(168592) which is a 2-step set. I started with using the Golden Glow classic ink for the begonia – the first part full-strength ink and the second at stamped off ink. I felt that […]
SUNFLOWER FIELDS
Happy Friday to you! Our neighbour grows some beautiful sunflowers and I was inspired to create this card showcasing those big, bright beauties! This was created with a new suite from the 2026 Aug-December catalogue called Sunflower Fields Collection. First though, I started by using the Sunflower 3D Embossing folder(166145) on a 3-7/8″ x 5″ […]
BUSY IN THE GARAGE
Hi. Today’s card comes from the garage! The garage elves have been busy with the Gears & Textures Bundle(166854) building this bright and cheery card. I had some extra gear die-cuts saved and put them to use to add a lot of the brightness. The mat is a design from the Everyday Essentials designer series […]
