Though this project didn't make it to all recipients yet, I wanted to share it before the year ends. So, sorry for the spoiling, added to late delivery. I used to create my own custom Christmas cards for close relatives, before I became a cardmaker. It was nothing too fancy, using very basic supplies (paper, scissors and glue), but I was enjoying creating something unique for them. Over the years, the need for mass producing cards sadly reduced and I finally had to stop. I've never been a great fan of mass production. I find the process very draining but it is also somewhat therapeutic, so I wanted to give it another try this year, for some of my crafty friends. I also thought it was the best way to create a fairly big amount of cards in less time, as I was so so late! If you're interested in seeing some of the steps, I'm also sharing a video on YT:  https://youtu.be/zWzTF8UoTWg Before starting, I already had a rough idea of what I wanted to make but the project was fai...

Merry Christmas to you all! Hope you had a great Christmas Eve with your loved ones and you get to celebrate some more today. I always feel very lucky that I get to post a light up card on Christmas day and because it needed to be a little special, I created a double light-up card using the @pearblossom press EZ-light and Twinkle light.

Merry Christmas to all who start the celebrations tonight! I thought I was going for a quick last make before Christmas, but this card took way more time than it should have, and it turned out both painful and joyful. Deciding which products would deserve to be used before next year was already painful enough. While I lost the last bit of my soul (or mojo to be less dramatic) die cutting the kitty and assembling the wreath, the background was my redemption... Full story in this blog! This card was a revelation for me, or a confirmation of how I've been feeling lately about my cardmaking, and maybe I'll share a little more about it when the time is right, but it leaves me full of hope and good resolutions for 2026 Products:  Joyful wreath dies (Concord and 9th) Finger puppet cats die (A pocket full of happiness) Cats and Pugs sentiments and Cheerful kittens (Spellbinders) Lovely layers: Scaredy cat (Honeybee stamps) Herringbone parquet (The Greetery) I started this crafty journe...
