Stenciling!

I recently had the pleasure of working with the Taylored Expressions layering stencil called Petal Party. The stencil allowed me to layer beautiful floral designs effortlessly, and I couldn't resist using a vibrant palette of colors that brought the project to life. As I navigate through the various projects from the Crop & Create Fall 2025 event, I'm taking my time to savor each one, and I’m really enjoying the creativity it inspires. Each step feels rewarding, and I'm excited to see how my work evolves with each new design!

OH BOY!

OH BOY mouse lovers, have you seen what's new in Scrappy Boy Stamps' mouse land die sets this month? These are all so mouse-icilous! First up is the Mouse Car Die Set, followed by the Mouse Headband Embellishments and Mouse Dress Up Embellishments.

Next row, first card was created using the Oh Boy Mouse Gift Card Holder and Mouse Stationery die sets. The second card features the Ghost Mouse Die Set and Spooky Web Ears Add-On set. Lastly is my mouse clipboard and the Mouse Stationery die set.

Hello Neuman!

I am flipping over Scrappy Boy Stamps' new release, 'New Yorkers'. I loved this tv show and have recently been watching it again. You must get the I Want It ALL Bundle so you don't miss out on the paper, background stamp of Jerry's apartment, and NY die cuts. The car used in this card is from the Vintage Car die set. I thought it was perfect for Assman! 

Cute Kids Military!

This is a wonderful new bundle of military crafting goodies from Scrappy Boy Stamps.  I'm sharing three cards I created and everything I used, except the Olo markers are from Scrappy Boy Stamps!

Monster Bubu Dress Up

I am having a blast with the new die set from Pixi Dust Designs, Monster Bubu.  I decided to create some holiday-themed monsters.

In the first photo, he looks a bit witchy! The witch hat and the jack-o'-lantern cupcake come from the PDD Pumpkin Mug die set. For the second photo, I used the PDD X-Mas Pals die set for the reindeer hat (I cut off the ears), the There's Snow One Like You die set for the scarf, and the Snowman Mug die set for the candy cane.

Tootsie Pops!

I don't know about you, but I love a Tootsie Pop now and then, especially the cherry flavor! This new stamp set from Pixi Dust Designs lets you get creative with dressing up your lollipops. It's called the Bat Lollipop Holder die cut. 

Be sure to check out the other two lollipop holder sets: The Gnome Lollipop Holder and The Cauldron Lollipop Holder. They are all delightfully spooky! Additionally, you can also use these as embellishments for other paper craft projects—just in case you end up eating all the Tootsie Pops!

Pink Halloween!

 

Two of my favorite things is the color pink and whimsical Halloween.  I had fun creating this using an image from CC Designs, and the papers are from Photo Play.  The little vampire was colored using Olo markers!  Boo!

Amuck, Amuck, Amuck!

I really enjoyed coloring these wonderful characters from the CC Designs stamp set 'Sisters'. I've always been into cute Halloween themes, and crafting with them makes for a perfect day.  The Haunted House die is from La-La Land Crafts, and the sisters were colored with Olo Markers.  I love to mix-and-match products.

Christmas Happiness!

I had a lot of fun creating this festive Christmas card. All products used, including stamps, dies, and patterned paper, are from La-La Land Crafts. The critters were colored using Olo Markers!

Cute Kid Detectives!

 This is a 'SPY-tacular' new release from Scrappy Boy Stamps.  

These detectives are very sneaky and fun to create with. 

 Get the bundle because you don't want to miss out on the great coordinating 

paper pack and the magnifying glass die.  I love this new collection.

All images were colored using Olo markers.

Caffeniated Christmas Card Challenge!

Check out the Caffeinated Christmas Card Challenge, which features Pixi Dust Designs for September! I created this fun coffee card using Pixi Dust Designs' Elf Mug Die Set! He is such a festive dude!

He was super easy to create; all the dies are included in the Elf Mug die set. I used various-sized circle dies to cut the card background. I love a circle card!
