Fantastic card with the Merry Christmas stamp with a free project sheet & video

December 9, 2025

Today is the last day to get in on the Cyber Monday sale on Paper Pumpkin subscriptions.

Save big on a 3 month, 6 month or 12 month subscription. I love getting a crafty box in the mail each month!

Go here to subscribe.

The font on this Merry Christmas stamp sold me on it. Just a little bit of the fun, curviness I love.

This Merry Christmas stamp is a true classic with a bit of that Victorian feel to it. I don’t often keep retired stamps but I will keep this one! It’s on sale now too; while supplies last. Click here to see it.

I paired it with the Traditions of Christmas designer paper here. It’s discounted and on the Last Chance list here. However it’s currently out of stock but should be back next week.
A bit of holly and berries with some ribbon and you’re done! As you can see I added the same DSP to my envelope flap. Now that makes a card extra special!

This next one features the Need for Tweed designer series paper. See that here. Fun prints with lots of texture. It’s also on sale right now and available while supplies last.

I stamped the inside with greetings from the Traditional Labels stamp set.

Aren’t they a beautiful set of cards! I will be making more of these and it’s a bonus that it uses up a nice piece of designer paper. No hoarding it!

Here’s the free project sheet for you. Click here to download or print it.

Need cute but easy Scrapbook ideas? I’ve got you covered!

March 9, 2022
It's been awhile since I created scrapbook pages. I actually started out with scrapbooking before stamping.

I know some of my customers have been waiting for me to create a new bunch of scrapbook layouts. I thought the Pattern Party host designer paper was a perfect starting point. Then I added elements from the What a Year Memories & More card pack. Perfect match up! Look:

There are 6 fun, colorful double scrapbook layouts in this kit to go. (the white photo mats are where you photos will be)

Each layout includes two 12 X 12 pages featuring a variety of celebratory occasions. You have a choice of the PDF tutorial or a pre-cut kit to go.

Here's one of the striking layouts.

Pre-order this kit by March 17th and it will be mailed out at the end of March. The PDF tutorial is sent in an email immediately after payment.

New Horizons scenic cards; a sure ‘wow’!

March 8, 2022
I've been sharing cards made on a recent Facebook Live featuring the New Horizons suite this week. You just cannot go wrong with these products! Each Tuesday at 11 am CT I host a FB live. Follow me on FB here so you don't miss anything.

Today's cards feature the On the Horizon bundle along with the beautiful New Horizon designer paper. Luckily this paper is in stock!

Save

The only stamping on this card is the birds. I inked in Misty Moonlight ink and stamped off once before stamping on the designer paper scene. The paper provides the gorgeous background.

The card base is Garden Green 5 1/2" X 8 1/2" scored in half at 4 1/4". The designer paper is 5 1/4" X 4".

The fence, grass, layered mountains and 'green hills' are all die-cut using the Horizon dies. These dies are currently unavailable but they should be back in stock next week. The 'blue' mountain was cut from a leftover strip of the designer paper and the detailed mountain was cut from White CS.

I decided to try a vertical card as well using this same sheet of New Horizons Designer Paper. This time the card base is Blackberry Bliss cut at 4 1/4" X 11". There are so many colors in this paper; many will work easily.

Details for both cards:
- See the On the Horizon's bundle here.
- The New Horizon's designer series paper is seen here.
- the pebbles enamel shapes are also currently unavailable. They should be back in stock later in March.
- The fence, grass, mountains, hills are all from the Horizon dies.

It's a unique side-step card. This one is a vertical layout. See the horizontal layout below. My stamps include the On the Horizon bundle and Let's Sail bundle.
