Cutest Crew Club card; quick & cute! Free project sheet too

May 11, 2026

This is one of the cards we made at my April card clubs; it features the Cutest Crew bundle.

The Cutest Crew bundle (seen here) has been so popular they cannot keep it in stock! The dies were available last week but now they’re gone again. They should be back the week of May 18th though. Be sure to add your email to the product page so you get a notification as to when they’re available.

My colors are Coastal Cabana with White, Pecan Pie & Crumb Cake. I used the Hobby Haven and Wood Grain Wonders designer papers on my card. Here’s the cat version:

I colored the critters in with Blends markers; stamping the images with Black Memento ink. The stitched die is from the Nested Essential dies seen here; one of my favorites.

I stamped the paw prints image repeatedly in the inside and added one of the pet die-cuts.

Which is your favorite?

I shared a video last week on Facebook and it’s now uploaded to my YouTube Channel. Plus you can access the free project sheet here.

Welcoming Woods sponged background

July 29, 2021
Here's one more card featuring the upcoming Welcoming Woods stamp set from the Holiday Catalog.

I went for a colorful background here with Highland Heather, Calypso Coral and Daffodil Delight.

I kept this at an extremely simple layout. Sometimes I just look in my scrap basket of colors I want to use and figure out a layout with them. These cards frequently turn out to be my favorites!

Measurements:
- White card base 5 1/2" X 8 1/2", White main image 3" X 4 1/4"
- Black 3 3/4" X 2 1/4"
- Calypso Coral 1 5/8" X 4 1/4"
- Daffodil Delight strip 1/2" X 4"
I hope the cards I've shared using this Welcoming Woods stamp set have inspired you to add it to your list! We can order from the Holiday catalog starting Tuesday, August 3rd!

Welcoming Woods Holiday Catalog Sneak Peak

July 28, 2021
With each new catalog I join a bunch of online swaps so I can get lots of samples to share with my customers. Both the Holiday catalog and a 2nd Sale-a-Bration catalog start on August 3rd! I know my customers started to receive theirs last week.

I loved the Welcoming Woods stamp set immediately. Nature, trees, 'scene building' sets are some of my favorites.

I went for a soft look of winter trees on my card.

I stamped the trees in Crumb Cake ink onto the White CS. Then I added snowflakes in Balmy Blue ink and sponged a light 'mist' of Balmy Blue on the sky. Of course I added a few rhinestones for sparkle!

That beautiful Designer Paper is called Harvest Meadow.

The tags for the greeting is from the Tailor Made Tags dies seen here.

Measurements:
- Crumb Cake card 5 1/2" X 8 1/2"
- White 3" X 4"
- Balmy Blue 3 1/4" X 4 1/4"
- Harvest Meadow DSP 2" X 4 1/4"

Fun Swaps by my Flowerbug’s Team with Sneak Peaks from the Holiday catalog

July 27, 2021
Today I'm sharing two swaps made by my talented Flowerbug's Team. I love seeing their style & creativity!

Karen made this fun fold card using the Bunches of Fun stamp set seen here.

Her colors are Black, White & Crushed Curry. She also used a fun technique called Paper Piecing. She stamped the gal onto Pattern Party DSP and fussy cut the dress out. Love this!!

See that texture on the large Crushed Curry layer? That's a sneak peak from the upcoming Holiday catalog. It's called Timeworn Type 3D embossing folder.

Measurements:
- Black – 4 1/4" X 5 1/2", 3" X 8 1/2" scored at 4 1/4"
- Crushed Curry 4" X 5 1/4", 2 3/4" X 4"
- White 2 1/2" X 3 3/4"

Next is another Sneak Peak card made by Lori. She used the new Penguin Place bundle in the Holiday catalog. It includes a cute Penguin punch!

She added a layer of White to her Balmy Blue card base and torn the upper edge. She added a bit of Wink of Stella to the torn area for snow. A super fun winter birthday card!
