Snow cute

Sharing some snow vibes with these cuties from Pink and Main and La-La Land Crafts, which I think pair nicely. I've mixed something old, something new, something blue... No, that's not the right theme, but I'm also so ready for Valentine's Day cards!

Warm hearts

Still inspired by the mini snow fall we had early January and as I finally received the @sweetnovemberstamps Snow Days stamp set, I couldn't resist making another scene card.

Cold hands, warm heart

Cold hands, warm heart! I was originally headed for a Winter icy blue-ish card but my color preferences led me to an almost Valentine's Day card! This card is sooooo not me, from die cutting to pattern papers. Die cutting is excruciating but I'm glad I gave this yeti a chance to not rot in my stash. And very unexpectedly, I managed to use a paper pad on the week of its delivery! This card is definitely against all odds but involved a lot of hassle, struggle and pain! I was hesitant to even post it, but I don't have much to post at the moment, so here it is! Products: Mochi the yeti die (Carlijn design) Build-a-hat die (Papertrey Ink) Sleight ride greetings (Altenew) Fancy Fall layering frames (Honeybee stamps) Streamline embossing folder (Spellbinders) Be mine paper pad (Carta Bella) #carlijndesign #papertreyink #cardmaking #handmadecards #diecutting

Snowflake kisses

We finally had a little snow this week. Nothing spectacular where I live, but enough to make me want to create a snow card Products: Snow buddies, Pile on the hugs and Alpine friends (My Favorite Things) Horizon lines: Alpine (Sweet November Stamps) Winter hugs (Karen Burniston) Ranger Distress Oxides: Speckled egg, Iced spruce and Black soot #mftstamps #cardmaking #handmadecards #diycards #wintercard 

Reach for the stars

My husband's birthday is this month so I thought I would celebrate him with a few space and plane cards, his favorite themes. For today, I'm sharing a double light up card with additional interactive components using the @pearblossompress Halo light Combo pack and Snap 'n slides.  The Snap 'n slide is an interactive disc that allows you to include spinning elements to your cards. In this project, I'm also testing a prototype for a new Snap 'n slide product that will be released in a few weeks. The new Snap 'n slide is more dedicated to sliders as it allows your element to slide without spinning. Products: Halo light Combo pack, Snap 'n slide, Sticky spots, PBP01 stamp set and World best foam tape (Pear Blossom Press) Shoot for the moon: Critters (Simon Says Stamp) Joy to the world: Globe (Create a smile) Basic torn paper: Wall opening (Carla Creaties) Warm wishes: Jar (Avery Elle stamps) Let's get crafty (Honeybee stamps) Astro & the Space whale:...
