Creep it Cute
This “creep it cute” tag combines AALL & Create Fright Bites characters with a rub-on-and-gesso background for just the right mix of texture and clean simplicity. A playful bat in a tea cup and a quirky Halloween cutie make this tag perfect for spooky-season gifting.
A Bold Halloween Glow
This bold Halloween card glows with fiery ink blending and a whimsical witch-and-cat duo from the Moonlight Mischief set at AALL & Create. I kept the design grounded with grass from the Frightful Fun die set and accented with vintage Halloween labels.
Bright Books & Big Glasses
I’m thrilled to share that this bright and happy card was featured in the 2025 Fall/Winter issue of Scrapbook & Cards Today magazine! 🦉🍎 It’s a fun nod to back-to-school season — for kids and adults — with its rainbow stack of books, big-eyed owl, and textured alphabet background. I wrapped it up with some black-and-white twine and finished it with one of my favorite sentiments: “You are never too old to learn.” Whether it’s for a teacher, student, or lifelong learner, this card is all about celebrating curiosity and growth — perfect for fall!
Peace & Love at Christmas
A festive holly sprig, a loopy red bow, and a bold, distressed sentiment strip make this Christmas card from the Simon Says Stamp Sugar and Spice release feel like an instant classic. I finished it with sparkling gems against a clean white background for an elegant, timeless look.
A Haunted Storybook Scene
This project was pure Halloween fun! A Storybook House die, a crackled Lava Lamp stencil background, and a quirky cast of characters from the Fright Bites stamp set – all from AALL & Create – turned into a little play on my desk—complete with a bat in a teacup opening the shutters.
Guest Designing for AALL & Create: Whimsically Spooky
Kicking off my guest design journey with AALL & Create, I paired my clean-and-simple style with their whimsical “Moonlight Mischief” stamps. A spooky sky, a quirky witch, and her feline sidekick tell the story on this card front. Products are linked on my blog and available from www.aallandcreate.com and stockists worldwide.

Grateful
