For my recent card creation, I used a panel from the lovely Beach Retreat Flash Cards, which are such a fantastic way to add colorful scenes to my crafts! With 24 unique designs in each pack, these cards can be used either as is or to explore fun foiling techniques. They allow for so much creativity! 🎨

Celebrating Memorial Day with Creativity: A Versatile Spin on the Mad Hatter Card Die Set

As we celebrate Memorial Day, I’m excited to showcase two unique card projects that highlight the versatility of the Mad Hatter card die set from Scrappy Boy Stamps. While this die was originally designed for whimsical, themed projects inspired by the tale of the “Mad Hatter”, I decided to take a different approach and customize it for today’s patriotic holiday.

Project 1: Patriotic Themed Card

A mash up between Scrappy Boy & Pajama Crafter Stamps

For my first project, I focused on a vibrant red, white, and blue palette to create a heartfelt card honoring our fallen heroes. By changing up the colors and incorporating relevant embellishments, I transformed the Mad Hatter die into something truly special for this occasion. The combination of thoughtful design and color allowed me to create a meaningful tribute that resonates with the spirit of Memorial Day.

Project 2: Celebrating Birthdays with Pinup Girls

In contrast, my second project features the same Mad Hatter die set, but this time paired with the brand-new Pinup Girls Birthday set that was released earlier this week. By simply adjusting the colors and the sentiment, I was able to create a fun and festive birthday card! This demonstrates just how adaptable these products can be, allowing for endless creative possibilities.

The beauty of crafting lies in the ability to innovate and personalize your projects. With a little imagination, you can repurpose any die set to fit a specific occasion or theme, proving that your creativity is your only limitation.

I hope my projects inspire you to think outside the box and explore new ways to utilize your crafting supplies!

Happy crafting, and enjoy the rest of your Memorial Day!

Hey Crafty Friends! 💖

I’m thrilled to share my latest creation featuring one of the newest stamp sets from the April 2025 release from Pajama Crafters Stamps—Champion in the Making! This adorable set showcases the cutest little boy and girl, making it perfect for any Little League celebration. But that’s not all! It also has elements that cater to the adults in the crowd, too, so you can create cards for fans of all ages!

Sentiments include:

“Set your goals high and don’t stop until you get there..” – Bo Jackson.

With a fantastic selection of sentiments like these, this stamp set is ideal for crafting heartfelt cards that can cheer on the young players or honor the passionate spectators! ⚾️💌

For this project, I used the Stamp and Spin Tool by Sizzix—one of my favorite ways to showcase smaller stamps on the front of a card! By stamping multiple images of the pennant flag, I created a stunning focal point featuring the baseball player! What a fun and unique way to create a playful background. 🌼🌀

Creating handmade cards is a wonderful way to show support and encouragement—imagine the smiles on the faces of both young sluggers and adult fans when they receive a personalized card crafted just for them! for those interested in the color blue that I achieved here I use three of my Copic markers: FB2, SBG2 and B02. I use those colors for his hat and any other blue on the card, including every pennant in the circle. Skin color – E00, E004, E11, R20. Blonde hair – Y21, YR23 and E13.. on the foam finger, I added a little bit of the fluorescent FYG2 Copic marker to tie in the green in the blue-green sparkle card base. 🌟

Whether you’re celebrating your favorite Little League star or honoring someone who loves the game, this fabulous new stamp set has everything you need to score big with your card-making!

Happy crafting, and let’s keep celebrating the champions in our lives—young and old alike! 🏅💖

Spring has sprung, and so has an exciting new release from Scrappy Boy Stamps! With fresh products hitting the shelves , it’s the perfect time to dive into some creative card-making. This release includes four fabulous lines: We’re Not Alone, Aliens Landed in Roswell, Cute Kids Playground, and a wonderful variety of card making and scrapbooking dies. Let’s check out some creative ideas for three card designs you can create with these new goodies!

1. I Want To Believe Slimline Card 🚀

I did a mash up of Aliens Landed in Roswell with We’re Not Alone to create a whimsical card showcasing one of the cutest aliens! Start with a dusky/starry night background using vibrant colors, then use the coordinating stamps and dies to bring your alien friend and beloved characters to life. For my card, I added an action wobbler to add movement and interest. Don’t forget to complete your card with a fun sentiment like “I WANT TO BELIEVE” to tie everything together!

2. Playground Fun Card 🎡

Using the Cute Kids Playground set, I crafted an adorable scene that captures childhood joy. To make your own, use the playground-themed stamps to create a colorful layout of kids playing on swings and slides. My card features a fun elephant slide. I layered several different coordinating patterned papers from the 6×6 paper pack in cheerful colors for that extra pop!

3. Rocking Horse Shaped Card🌌

Using the new Rocking Horse Mini Album Die, I created a shaped card. Use for scrapbook elements OR as it’s intended use, a mini photo album die. I cut all elements in white for ease and then use my Copic markers or Distress Inks to create additional colors. If you look closely, you might see that I ran some elements through my Big Shot die-cutting machine with a fun embossing folder. You can also use up your scraps! Have fun!

March 28th: National Something-On-A-Stick Day

Check your stamps for grilling meat on a stick!!!! Celebrate EVERYTHING!!!!

Observed each year on March 28th, National Something on a Stick Day is a food holiday that lets you use your creative talents. Once you get started, the possibilities are endless. Foods that come on a stick are fun and easy to eat.

Check your stash for lollipops – Yum! Yay for food on a stick!

From cool summer treats like the Popsicle to frozen food staples like the corn dog, food on a stick is one of the world’s great inventions. Fresh fruit kabobs and skewers of grilled veggies and meat are both summer favorites.

Street fairs and food trucks have created a variety of recipes made to go on a stick that takes us from breakfast to after-party hunger with flavor combinations that sometimes make us wonder why we haven’t tried that before! Whether it is fresh and healthy or breaded and deep-fried, menu choices are broad and plentiful for National Something on a Stick Day.

Pull out your food stamps and celebrate National Food-On-A-Stick Day doing something creative.

I love it! I adore it! I’m crazy about it! – Slimline Card

Hello fellow crafters!

I am excited to introduce my first project using Scrappy Boy Stamps’ March 2023 Release. The new stamp set “She’s A Dream” was inspired by the classic TV show that we all love. This stamp set is a perfect addition to your collection and will surely add some whimsy to your projects.

Isn’t this stamp set the cutest? Each stamp in the set has been carefully designed to showcase the magical aura of the classic TV show. The genie is absolutely adorable and brings back memories of a beloved TV character. There is a genie bottle stencil in the release that was designed to add a touch of enchantment to your projects, and another background stencil, which I used with my gel press to create an abstract background, perfect for adding texture and depth to creations.

You can make a variety of different crafts such as cards, home decor, and scrapbook pages with this stamp set. Pair the colored images with the coordinated paper pack in both 6×6 and slimline.

Overall, the “She’s A Dream” stamp set is a must-have for anyone who loves the classic TV show and wants to add a touch of magic to their projects.

Thank you for joining me in this creative journey, and happy crafting!
