Real Friends Still Send Cards
The December Stamp and Die of the Month from Spellbinders features beautifully versatile sentiments, perfect for Valentine’s Day or any occasion that calls for a touch of warmth. I paired one of the sentiments with the Love Notes Birddie set from an earlier release and added the Embossing Folder of the Month for soft texture. A few pearls and a satin ribbon finished the design. Have a wonderfully creative day!
Christmas Blessings
The new A Child Is Born die set from Simon Says Stamp’s And Everything Nice release beautifully captures the peace and grace of Christmas. Soft colors, gentle shine, and clean lines create a modern yet timeless Nativity scene. Have a wonderfully creative day.
A Joyous Christmas
The new Branching Holly embossing folder from Simon Says Stamp’s And Everything Nice release adds beautiful texture and depth to this clean, classic holiday card. Paired with layered die cuts and a pop of festive red, it captures that timeless Christmas warmth. Have a wonderfully creative day!
A Cherry On Top
The Fountain Wishes die set from the Spellbinders Happier Hour collection brings vintage charm to life. I built the scene with layered scoops, caramel drizzle, and a glossy cherry on top, then paired it with a rich red background for contrast. A bit of twine and a few sequins add finishing flair to this sweet design. Have a wonderfully creative day!
Gingerbread Joy – Times Two!
These holiday cards feature two variations from the Simon Says Stamp Gingerbread Joy stamp set, each brought to life with holly sprigs, silver thread, and a glittery snowflake backdrop. Small images became the stars of the design in this festive duo from the Sugar and Spice release.
Watermelon Ice Cream
Inspired by a craving for watermelon ice cream, I used the Fountain Wishes die set from Spellbinders’ Happier Hourcollection to create a playful summer sundae. The pink and green layers give the design a bright, juicy look, while black paint splatters and clear sequins add fun detail. The sentiment “Have the sweetest birthday” makes it perfect for any celebration. Have a wonderfully creative day!
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.
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.
