Two sweet critters take in the show under a bright sky filled with stamped fireworks (with a little sparkle added, of course ✨). The circular window adds depth, while a forest tree line keeps things grounded. A sweet sentiment ties it all together: You light up my life! 💚

A Rainbow Ride to Birthday Magic
This birthday card is pure magic! 🦄🌈 Featuring the Pocket Ponies set from Simon Says Stamp’s Friend Like Yourelease, it stars a flying pegasus soaring over a rainbow with glittery wings and a whole lot of personality.

When Life Gets Messy… Hang In There
This one’s for those days… 🐦💩 Featuring products from the new Friend Like You release by @simonsaysstamp (plus a favorite sentiment from an older release), this card mixes humor and heart. The googly-eyed birds bring the funny—especially the one hanging on for dear life—and the soft ink-blended background keeps things calm. A little snark, a little sparkle, and a whole lot of personality. 💬✨ Hang in there!
Chasing Summer Skies
This card is all about those golden summer sunsets! ☀️ Featuring products from Simon Says Stamp’s Friend Like You release, I created a layered mountain scene with soft stenciled shapes and warm ink-blended skies. Puffy white clouds, a bold sun, and a little twine bow bring out the cozy summer vibes, while the sentiment wraps it all up: Enjoy the warm days of summer. 🌄✨
A Pop of Parrot Personality
This bold and playful card features products from Spellbinders’ Cheerful Chirps collection — and it’s all about that tropical flair! 🦜 I used layered die cuts to build this colorful parrot, blending vibrant greens, blues, and limes for a punchy, dimensional look. The rich navy background adds contrast and texture with a bamboo-inspired embossing pattern that grounds the scene without overpowering it. A few leafy accents and a simple “hello” sentiment complete the look. It’s the perfect anytime card with just the right mix of color, character, and handmade charm!
Hello Sunshine 🍋 – Two Takes on La Dolce Vita
These two cards were created with Spellbinders’ La Dolce Vita collection and inspired by all things sunshine and citrus! 🍋 Each design features layered lemons and delicate blossoms, paired with a beautiful embossed background for a Mediterranean tile feel. I played with two different looks: one bold and dramatic with a navy base, and one light and fresh with a white-on-white palette. The “Hello Sunshine” sentiment ties them together perfectly. Whether you love contrast or a soft glow, these dies make it easy to add a burst of brightness to your cardmaking!
Rainbows & Cheerful Wings
This playful card features products from the Cheerful Chirps collection by Spellbinders — and it’s full of color and personality! 🐦🌈 I used my Copic markers to blend rainbow gradients across the birds’ bodies, giving them each a unique, vibrant look. They’re perched on simple branches with sweet white flowers, all set against a clean white background that lets the colors shine. A popped-up panel and a few sparkly embellishments add just the right touch of dimension and shimmer. This card is sunshine, color, and a whole lot of happy all in one!
Hap-bee Birthday!
This handmade birthday card, created with products from Simon Says Stamp’s Moments In Time release, is full of cheerful energy and playful details! 🐝💛 The star is a tag featuring a birthday bee, balloons, and a cupcake — all colored in bright, happy shades. On the right side, I created a patterned panel using the new Swiss Dots stamp set. I stamped it multiple times in different colors, slightly offset each time, to create a colorful, confetti-style design. Finished with shimmery gems and a punny sentiment, this card is perfect for a joyful celebration!
Set Sail with the Spellbinders June Clubs!
Set sail with the Spellbinders June 2025 Clubs! ⛵ I created two nautical-inspired cards using the Embossing Folder and the Stamp & Die of the Month—one is a fun rocker card (that doubles as a gift tag!) and the other features a bold porthole design. Both cards are packed with texture, waves, and charming nautical details like anchors, swords, and layered sentiments. Whether you’re crafting for summer or just love a good seaside theme, these club kits are sure to inspire! ⚓🌊
