die cut cards
Cozy Wishes for the Season
For this card, I used the October 2025 Embossing Folder of the Month and the Stamp and Die of the Month Club products from Spellbinders. The embossed background pairs beautifully with the bold red house and simple sentiment, creating a clean and cozy holiday card that’s perfect for sending warm wishes this season.
Grateful
This card for Simon Says Stamp’s STAMPtember® release celebrates the beauty of fall with Copic-colored leaves in rich, vibrant hues. The “Grateful” sentiment gets extra depth with marker shading, while a soft aqua background keeps the whole design fresh and bright. A few sparkling accents finish it off, making this the perfect card to send a little gratitude this season.
Spook-tacular Special Delivery & A Blog Party
This Halloween card for Simon Says Stamp’s STAMPtember® collection features a playful ghost delivering mail in style. Using the older Delightful Ghost die, I made him float out of a Copic-colored mailbox, complete with a tiny envelope for extra charm. Bats, a spider, and a few gems finish off the scene for a spooky yet whimsical design that’s sure to deliver smiles.
Shake, Rattle, and Boo!
We’ve made it to Card #7 in my Halloween series—and this one’s got shake 👻 I used the Tiny Frights stamp set and new coordinating dies from Simon Says Stamp’s Fall and Halloween release to create these playful ghosts and bat. The dramatic spider web die (a classic Tim Holtz fave) makes a perfect backdrop inside the shaker window. With sequins, sparkle, and spooky-cute vibes, this was such a fun way to close out the series! 🦇✨
Flying Into a Sweet Christmas
Soaring through a winter sky, this gingerbread airplane from Spellbinders’ Candy Christmas by Stamperia brings holiday cheer in the sweetest way. Puffy clouds, snowy evergreens, and a festive banner complete the playful scene, making this card a fun twist on Christmas traditions. A little whimsy, a lot of charm—this one’s bound to make spirits bright!
Just Breathe into Fall
Card #5 in my series takes a peaceful turn with this fall-inspired design using the Fall and Halloween Dies from Simon Says Stamp that coordinate with Tim Holtz stamps. 🍁 I used watercolor markers directly on the leaf stamps, misted them with water, and pressed them onto watercolor paper for a loose, organic effect. The “Just Breathe” sentiment from a past release pulls it all together with quiet, autumn calm. 🍂✨
Frightfully Fun with a Hint of Webby Whimsy!
Card #4 in my Halloween series is a cheerful little fright fest! 🎃 I embossed an older Tim Holtz spider web die into the background for subtle texture, then layered on images from the Tiny Frights stamp set using the new coordinating dies from Simon Says Stamp’s Fall and Halloween release. A grinning pumpkin, crescent moon, and bat bring the spooky vibes—plus a soft ink-blended glow and some sparkly orange gems for good measure! 🧡🕸
Holiday Magic on Main Street
This handmade card captures a cozy winter story straight out of Yana’s City Holiday Collection from Spellbinders. A curious pup and a playful kitty steal the spotlight next to layered windows decked out with red curtains and holiday décor 🎄🐾. With textured snow, festive touches, and tons of dimension, this design feels like a little holiday tale on cardstock. ❄️❤️
EEK! It’s a Skeleton Party…and a Blog Hop!
Card #3 in my Halloween series is bringing the spooky vibes—with a little sass! 💀 I used the Halloween Doodles stamps and coordinating dies from Simon Says Stamp’s Fall and Halloween release to spotlight this cheeky skeleton, potion bottle, and hat. The Sketched Manor from Card #2 makes a subtle cameo in the tone-on-tone embossed background. That giant “EEK!” in neon green? Pure Halloween drama. 🧪🖤
Haunted with Heart: A Dimensional Take on Sketch Manor
Card #2 in my spooky series is here—and this haunted Sketch Manor has serious dimension! 🏚 Using the new Fall and Halloween Dies from Simon Says Stamp that coordinate with Tim Holtz stamps, I layered the stamped manor piece-by-piece for a 3D look. Even the front doors open (in true haunted fashion)! 🚪 Paired with a glowing moon and a comforting sentiment, this card mixes eerie and heartfelt in the best way. 💛
