Halloween Wishes!

 Hi everyone and happy Monday!

Today I am popping in to share a card that I created using one of the new images released from

 Digi Doodle Studios.

For my card, I used the super adorable image called Mimi Sue Lovable Witch.

To create my card, I started by covering a white top folding cardbase with some polka dotted patterned paper from Doodlebug Designs. I added a strip of black glitter cardstock down the middle and glued a piece of green patterned paper on top. I printed my Mimi Sue Lovable Witch image onto a piece of white Hammermill cardstock, colored her in with my Copic markers and used my Scan N cut to cut her out. I popped her up onto a big die cut circle with foam tape and then adhered the circle to the front of my card. I placed my sentiment below her and added some glittery bats to complete my card. 

Copic Colors Used:

--Mimi Sue's Skin & Hair: E50, E51, E21, E23, E25, E27--

--Outfit/Hat: N3, N4, N5, N7, YG01, YG03, YG05, RV55--

--Cat/Spider: C2, C3, C4, C6, R00, R000--

--Pumpkins: YR21, YR24, YR14, YR16, YR18, YR27--

I would also love to play along in the following challenges:

--Love Those Pretty Paper Challenge Blog: September 2026--

--Two Old Bats: Anything Goes Halloween Sept. 2026--

--Send A Smile 4 Kids: Cute Fall/Halloween--

Thank you so much for stopping by my blog today and taking a look at my latest creation!

I really appreciate it!
I hope you have a great crafty day!

A bright hello!

Hi everyone!

Happy happy Monday!

I hope you had a fun and fabulous weekend!

I'm stopping in today to share a card that I created to play along in a few challenges,

 I will link them below.

Here is a look at my card....

As I previously mentioned, I think in a January post, one of my goals this year is to use some of my ephemera packs that I seem to collect and never use lol. I created this card using some patterned papers from Doodlebug and a couple of pieces from the coordinating Odds & Ends pack.

I started by creating an A2 cardbase using white cardstock and covering it with some floral patterned paper from the Butterfly Kisses paper pack & doodling around the perimeter with a black micron pen. Next, I cut a piece of pink patterned paper down, doodled around the perimeter and used a distressing tool to rough it up just a bit for a little visual interest. I adhered it to a piece of vellum and popped it up onto my card with some foam tape. I used a die to cut out my little tag, also with paper from the Butterfly Kisses paper pad, glued it to my card front and popped up that adorable tea cup and flower from the ephemera pack with more foam tape. I die cut out the "hello" three times, stacked them together to give a little depth and stability, and added that under my tag. I finished my card by adding some white Nuvo drops and a white hemp bow. 

This was so simple to make but I absolutely love how it turned out! 

Maybe it's the bright colors or the florals?

Reminds me of Spring/Summer and I am definitely ready for some warmer temps lol!

The challenges that I would like to play along in are...

I'm so happy to say that my year is starting off wonderfully as I am a guest designer this month for

Caffeinated Christmas Card Challenge Blog!! 

Yay!!

Here is a look at the card that I created to share with you today...

Isn't that little Polar Bear holding his hot cup of cocoa the cutest?

Here is how I created my card...

I covered my top folding A2 cardbase with some snowflake patterned paper and doodled around the perimeter with a black micron pen. I used a internal scallop frame die to die cut some red patterned paper & added a little snowy hill with my sentiment stamped onto it. I colored my little Polar Bear with my Copic markers, paper piecing his scarf, and used the coordinating die to cut him out. I placed him behind my hill and backed my frame with some vellum to mute the background around my bear just a bit. I added some snowflakes and dots to complete my card.

Bear: W1, W3, W7, W9, RV00, RV000

Here is a look at the card that I created to share with you today...

I just love this sentiment from the Hay Friend stamp set and I knew that I wanted to build my card around it. I started by creating my A2 top folding card base from white cardstock. I added a small strip of red check patterned paper on top of some farm themed patterned paper, separating the two layers with a scallop border from the Border Dies and a hemp bow before adding it on top of my card base. I die cut out my photo frame by using the Photo Frame Die and added my sentiment to the bottom using the Hay Friend stamp set and Memento Tuxedo Black Ink. I built my little farmer by using the Girl Gnome Dies, Gnome Dies: Girl Gnome Face Add Ons, Gnome Dies: Girl Scarecrow Add Ons (hat), Gnome Faces and the Gnome Dies: Farm Add Ons and tucked her into my frame and added a little piggy also from the Gnome Dies: Farm Add Ons. I added a piece of blue patterned paper behind the frame and tucked in a little cloud from the Spring Dies 2. I added a little enamel flower to her hat and placed my scene at an angle onto my card base and it was done! 

I think this turned out so incredibly cute!!!

Jaded Blossom's March Challenge!

Hi everyone & happy March!!

Today starts a new challenge over at the Jaded Blossom blog!!

This month is.....Anything Goes!

 We would love to see your projects that use some of those awesome Jaded Blossom stamps/dies!

Challenge Guidelines: 

1) Project must be new for this challenge, no back linking

2) Project must have a Jaded Blossom stamp, die, or stencil somewhere on it. 

3) Only one entry per person

For my project, I could not resist making a fun little bag to hold some yummy candy for the upcoming 

St. Patrick's Day 🍀

Here is how I made it....

I used the Octagon Treat Box Die and cut out my pieces using some green patterned paper from Doodlebug. Once I had my box pieces cut out, I glued all the sides together to create the box and then set it aside while I worked on my face. I created my face by using the Octagon Treat Box Die (face base) & the Octagon Dies: Christmas Add Ons 1 (Beard, Mustache, Nose, Eyes, Hair and Ears) and then added a little bit of blush for the rosy cheeks. Once I had his little face created, I attached it to the front of my box. I then used the Octagon Dies: Christmas Add Ons 2 for his top hat, adding a buckle and four leaf clover from the Gnome Dies: St. Patrick's Day Add Ons.

I added some paper shred and candy to the inside and my little treat box is ready to go!

I think this turned out so cute!!

Be sure to check out the Jaded Blossom blog to see what the rest of the DT made, they never disappoint! 

I hope you will play along, I would love to see what you make!

Get Well Wishes

Hi everyone and happy Wednesday!

It's my day to post over on the Jaded Blossom Blog 

and I have a Get Well Soon card to share with you today.

I don't know about your area, but there seems to be a lot of cold and flu cases in my area so I thought I better have a card to have on hand just in case. 

I created an A2 cardbase from some white cardstock and covered the front with some dotted patterned paper. I added a strip of blue patterned paper along one side and doodled around the perimeter with a black Micron pen. I used the Stylized Rectangle Dies and cut out a piece of plaid patterned paper and layered it on top of a white Stylized Scallop Rectangle. I popped it up onto my card with some foam tape and started building my little bear. For my bear, I used the Gnome Friends: Bear Die, Bear Faces and the Gnome Dies: Medical Add Ons. Once I had my bear built, I popped her up onto the front of my card and added a little pink bow to her hair. I stamped my sentiment from the Speedy Recovery stamp set, used the Mini Tag Dies 3 to cut it out and tucked one end under my bear. I finished my card with a heart from the Banner Dies, some puffy stickers and a couple of white Nuvo drops.   

I'm pretty sure that this cute little bear would make anyone feel better.

Love Is In The Air....

Hi everyone and happy Wednesday!

It's my day to post over on the Jaded Blossom Blog 

and I created a fun Galentine's Day card to share with you today. 

Here is how I made my card...

I covered a white A2 cardbase with some pretty floral patterned paper and doodled around the perimeter with a dark brown Micron Pen. I created my coffee cup by using the Coffee Slider Die along with the Coffee Slider Add On Die for the Scalloped Sleeve. I stamped my sentiment using some Kraft colored ink and the Kiss Me A Latte stamp set onto my sleeve, centering it the best that I could. I die cut some hearts from the Heart Dies 2, Banner Dies, Embellishment Clusters Die and the Build A Booth: Valentine Add Ons and placed them onto my cup. I used the Bow Dies for a couple of small white bows to add to the bigger hearts and finished my card with a fun pair of lips from the Build A Booth: Valentine Add Ons. 

I just love how this turned out!

Here is a look at the card that I created to share with you today:

I just can't get enough of these adorable penguins!

To make my card, I actually started with the Winter Sparkle Stencil. I used the stencil and some white embossing paste to create my background onto a piece of light blue cardstock. While the embossing paste was wet, I sprinkled a light dusting of glitter on the top so that it could dry onto the embossing paste and not come off so easily. I set that aside to dry and started building my little penguin, using the following products: Gnome Friends: Penguin Die, Penguin Faces and the heart from the Banner Dies. Once my background was dry, I cut it down and placed it onto a white A2 cardbase. I built some little snow hills using the Border Dies 2 and some white glitter cardstock. I built my lamp using the Street Lamp Die and the Street Lamp Die: Winter Add Ons, tucking it between the snowy hills. I added a frame from the Rectangle Internal Scallops and added my little penguin to the card. I stamped my greeting from the Penguin Kisses & used the Penguin Kisses Outline Dies to cut it out and popped it up with some foam tape. So cute!

Penguins!!! Oh my stars!!

I started my card by creating my A2 cardbase using some red cardstock. I cut out a piece of white cardstock using the Rectangle Dies 2, did some doodling around the perimeter and adhered it to my base. I placed my card into my Misti & stamped my sentiment using the Penguin Kisses stamp set with Versafine ink. I built my little penguin using the Gnome Friends: Penguin Die, along with a puffy sticker for the gift, and added him below my sentiment. I layered some patterned papers together and used the Border Dies to create a scallop along one edge, wrapped some twine around and adhered that strip to the left side of my card. I finished my card with a few dot and star puffy stickers.

Hey Everyone! 

It's time for the Black Friday Sale & Release over at Jaded Blossom!

Jaded Blossom is releasing a few new items!

Click HERE to check out the new items.

Here is what I created using some of the new items.. 

This card was so easy!

I started by creating a white A2 card base and using the Rectangle Strip Card Mat Die to cut out a piece of white cardstock to layer on top. Once I had that adhered, I used the Rectangle Strip Card Mat Die again to cut out strips from 4 different patterned papers. Once I had them cut out, I layered them into the white frame and used the Winter Wishes stamp set to stamp my greeting along the bottom of the card. I cut out a piece of Vellum using the Stitched Oval Dies and placed a snowman that I created using the Snowman Dies on top. I popped up the Vellum Oval using some foam tape and placed a little candy cane from the Christmas Embellishment Cluster in the snowman's hand. I wrapped some twine around my card at the top, tying it off with a bow. I finished my card by placing some snowflakes cut out using the Winter Banner Dies 2, some snowflake sequins and some white Nuvo drops.
