Just look at him—bundled up in his cozy hat and scarf, side-eyeing the weather like he’s not built for this degree of cold. Same, buddy. Same. For this card, I kept the design playful

Easy Holiday Layout with a Dash of Holiday Cuteness
It’s officially that magical time of year when the craft table is covered in plaid paper, glittery scraps, and the faint smell of coffee and Distress Ink.

Some Ghost Stories are True
There’s something hauntingly charming about a good ghost story — especially when it’s paired with a touch of creativity and a dash of Halloween magic! For this spooky project, I used the new “Once Upon a Page” background stamp by Unity Stamp Co. It’s the perfect backdrop of vintage books that brings a touch of mystery and old-world charm to any card.

Mixing elegance with a little Halloween mischief was too good t
