Are you ready for some 'Island Adventures' with Kindred Stamps' latest release? These charming critters are just waiting for you to stamp, color, cut, and use as embellishments for paper crafts. I used Olo markers for the coloring, and all the beautiful background papers come from Kindred Stamps. Don’t miss out on these creative gems!
Now that the card base is ready, it’s time to decorate the inside.
I used some coordinating scraps from my stash to create the inside panels. Cut two more patterned paper strips measuring 5⅜” x 1⅞” to decorate the inner flaps. This is a great way to use up those leftover papers you’ve been saving!
For the back panel, I added a rectangle of patterned cardstock and decorated it with two oval shapes. The ovals provide a perfect place to showcase the adorable fireman character from the Smokin’ Hot Heroes stamp set and the HERO lettering. I love how these elements bring the theme of the card together!
You can use ovals, circles, rectangles, or any other die-cut shapes you have in your craft room to create your own inside design. Don’t be afraid to experiment with different shapes and layers to make the card uniquely yours.
To finish the card, I added the sentiments to the back of the two blue cardstock panels. These messages help complete the design and make the card extra special for someone who serves our community.
The combination of the Smokin’ Hot Heroes and Back The Blue stamp sets makes this design perfect for celebrating firefighters, police officers, and other community heroes. Whether you’re creating a card for a first responder, a family member, a friend, or someone who simply deserves a little extra appreciation, this fun fold design is a wonderful way to let them know they are valued.

Today I’m sharing a spooky Halloween card featuring the Flower Child and Where My Ghouls At? stamp sets from Pajama Crafter Stamps. I had so much fun giving this sweet flower girl a fun Halloween makeover!
I began by stamping the images using Memento Tuxedo Black Ink. Since I wanted to create a Halloween-themed card, I replaced the flowers in her headband with tiny pumpkins. When coloring, don't forget to change up her top and shoes for a spookier look. I stamped several pumpkins to have plenty for coloring, cutting out, and layering. Additionally, I stamped the adorable cat wearing a witch hat.
For the card base, I created a simple frame using two square dies. I ensured there was enough space between the dies to form a nice border. Next, I added double-sided foam adhesive to the back of the frame before attaching it to the patterned paper. This gave the frame added dimension and helped create a fun layered look.
After coloring and cutting out all of my images, I replaced the flowers on the Flower Child’s headband with the tiny pumpkins. I added Nuvo Glitter Drops to the pumpkins for a little extra sparkle. I also used Stickles on the cat’s witch hat to give it some fun Halloween shimmer.
Next, I placed the Flower Girl along the outside of the frame and added the cat and pumpkins inside the card. The different layers and foam adhesive give the scene lots of dimension.
To finish the card, I added the YIKES sentiment from the Dang, Whoa, Yikes Word and Shadow die set at the top. It was the perfect spooky sentiment for this fun Halloween design!
This was such a fun way to turn the Flower Child stamp into a Halloween character. A few pumpkins, a little sparkle, and an adorable witchy cat were all it took to create a wickedly fun Halloween card!
