There’s something about the start of a new year that naturally invites reflection. Instead of rushing headfirst into resolutions and packed calendars, I wanted my first card of the year to set a different tone—one rooted in slowing down . The “No Rush Now”  stamp from the January 2026 Kit of the Month  felt like the perfect image to kick things off. This quiet little scene speaks volumes without saying too much, and honestly, that’s the energy I want to carry into the year a

My final blog post of 2025 If you’re expecting a calm, reflective, perfectly polished end-of-year blog post… you’re definitely in the wrong place. I’m closing out 2025 the only way that feels appropriate: with sarcasm, side-eye, and brand-new stamps from the Pissy Kitty collection . These two cards— Leg Day  and Cupid —are basically the emotional support animals we all need as the calendar flips to a new year. Let’s be honest: New Year energy is overrated. Pissy Kitty gets it

If you’re anything like me, you still have a few Christmas cards left to make even though the big day is almost  here. 🎄 The good news? With the right stamps, paper, and a little creative layering, you can pull together beautiful, meaningful cards in no time at all.

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. Today, I’m sharing two festive cards featuring two adorable  new stamps from Unity Stamp Company  — A Little Ho Ho Ho and A Little Dash . What makes these cards so fun is that they share the same layout , but each one has its own little twist. Using one design to create two coordinating cards is a huge time-saver when you’r

There’s something so timeless and comforting about Winnie the Pooh — and this adorable BIG image  makes for the sweetest card centerpiece! I couldn’t resist creating a simple yet striking design using this jumbo bear and a warm honey-toned palette. The Star of the Show Let’s talk about size first — this Pooh is BIG!  He fills almost the entire front of an A2 card, which means you don’t need much else to make an impact. Just stamp, color, and you’ve got yourself a card that’s

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. Our little ghost friend — part of some hauntingly cute ephemera — steals the spotlight as he dives into his latest read. I la

There’s something truly magical about the holiday season — the sparkle of ornaments, the warmth of festive colors, and the joy of handmade cards.

This bundle includes both the Bold Baubles Stamp Set  and a coordinating stencil , making it easy to color your ornaments beautifully and add layers of dimension. With a touch of ink blending & grunge-styled stamping, this vintage-inspi
