Today I’m putting my cardstock scraps to work on a cheerful Christmas card featuring the Simple Trees Die Set from the Sending Cheer release. I loved the idea of a non-traditional rainbow palette and easy-to-create die-cuts for making multiples. This project combines simple cutting, a little collage and dimensional adhesive—giving those saved scraps their festive moment! I’ll show you how to prepare the textured panel, arrange the trees and organize your components for ass

Okay, I might have taken the concept of "all the details" a little too literally on today's project! 😅 When you get your hands on a die or stamp as breathtaking as the Pumpkin Wreath from the STAMPtember® 2026 release, it’s practically impossible not to pour every ounce of crafty love into it.

Have you ever found your crafting inspired by a cherished item, like a favorite outfit, painting or a piece of decor? That is exactly how today’s project came about. I used to keep a favorite dried flower bouquet right on my desk when first set up my craft space that unfortunately took a tumble and broke. I missed those warm, earthy, textured dried stems so much—so I decided to restore that memory with a Friendship Card.

Is it ever too early to start making Christmas cards? 🤫 The answer is a very Merry NO! Some crafters start their holiday cards in July, so if you're just getting into the festive spirit now, don't worry—you are in great company! Today, I'm sharing a card with the Party Streamers from the STAMPtember® 2026 release. It relies almost entirely on die-cutting and embossing technique magic to create a celebration full of movement, texture, and festive charm.

When it comes to cardmaking, who says you need inks or stamps to make a serious statement? Today’s card relies entirely on precision retro paper-piecing & vibrant color combos to bring all the retro gro

If you’re like me, you love detailed, dimensional cards with rich color and depth, but you don’t always have hours to spend hand-coloring every single petal and leaf. That’s where 3D embossing folder and coordinating stencil combos come in—they are absolute magic for paper crafters! Today, I’m thrilled to share a sweet, cozy friendship card from the STAMPtember® 2026 release featuring gorgeous pink blooms and a darling little friend tucked right at the bottom.

Remember when setting the Thanksgiving table was an absolute event? Gathering around the kids' table, arranging paper decorations, and soaking in the golden afternoon light are memories that stick around forever. I told myself I was going to keep things ultra-simple this year, but a sudden wave of autumn nostalgia. It was very likely induced by the Tim Holtz Leaf Prints 2 Stamp Set and the convenience of the Simon Says Stamp Coordinating Dies, inspired me going the extra m
