Hello, friends!
Ericka here, bringing you a serene and peaceful winter card to close out the year. There’s something magical about winter landscapes, and today I’m sharing a design inspired by snowy days and quiet woods, featuring the beautiful Winter Butterflies sentiment along with some smaller, whimsical stamps.
Once the background dried, I stamped the Winter Butterflies sentiment, Snowflake, and Holly Snowflake Swirl using Versafine Clair Twilight ink, then clear embossed them for added depth and shine.
To bring the scene to life, I stamped the Spruce Tree in Versafine Clair Rain Forest and the Buck and Doe in Pinecone ink. These natural tones add an earthy touch, balancing the soft shimmer of the background.
For that extra touch of winter magic, I used a white gel pen to add “snow” to the stamped images and sentiment, creating the look of little snowdrifts piling on tree branches and the forest floor. It’s a simple detail that makes the scene feel so much more alive. To complete the card, I added a hint of elegance with some gold stitching—a subtle shimmer that ties everything together and gives the design a polished, festive feel.
Thank you so much for stopping by! I hope you’re enjoying these final few days of 2024, soaking up all the wintery wonder and warmth of the season. Here’s to a creative and joyful year ahead!
Happy crafting,
Ericka ❄️✨
I combined words from Fairies, Stardust, Magic and Winter Sucks to create the sentiment.

Hello, friends! Toni here sharing a humorous card perfect for lightening up those winter blues.
I started this card by using a background I had created ages ago using a stencil and Brushos. I spattered Copic Opaque White as snow and added a glitter hill to adapt it to winter.
Then I colored up the Grumpy Bear Bernard image using Copics, diecut the panel with a deckle edge and mounted it on a piece of kraft cardstock.
To complete the card, I stamped the Wish I Was a Bear sentiment with Versafine Clair Nocturne and gave it the same diecut treatment.

Hello friends! Ericka here and I hope you had a wonderful Christmas celebration. I'm still on holiday break and so technically its still the holiday season right? Today I have a quick card I made with some winter stamps. I love the scripty font of the Enjoy the Warmth sentiment and clear heat embossed it. I then stamped the Snowlady Neiva along with the Holly Snowflake Swirl and some additional Snowflakes. I used some clear sparkle embossing powder for all the images to give them a look of sparkly snow. I colored up my snowlady with some markers and then added some Lindy's Gang Magical spray. Thank you for stopping by and I hope you have a wonderful holiday season!
Hello, crafty friends! I hope everyone is making it through the holiday season unscathed haha.
Today, I have another little festive card to share. Here are all of the details.
Hello friends! Ericka here and I hope this holiday season finds you well. It is a busy time of the year and, at least for me, sometimes I get stuck in hustle and bustle of things and forget to find the joy in the season.
So today, I took some time and made a peaceful scene using Distress Oxide inks in Uncharted Mariner and Salvaged Patina. I then stamped the Spruce Tree Small and Spruce Tree Tall in Versafine Clair Rainforest ink. I then stamped the Small Buck and Doe set in Versafine Clair Nocturn ink. I wanted to remind myself and other to find "joy" in all the things this season and I love the script font of the Joy Written sentiment. I finished my card with some heat embossing and added a little White Twinkle embossing to give my hills a little shine. Thank you for stopping by and I hope you find joy and peace this Christmas season.

Hello, and welcome to our blog! We are participating in the 2023 Fall/Winter Coffee Lovers Blog Hop.
Hello, crafty friends, and happy New Year! Ericka here, and today I have a wintry card using this cute Penguin Hat stamp. I love this stamp and have used it to make cute ornaments. See the post here. This time I decided to color him up using my colored pencils.
I did some no-line coloring using some light ink to stamp the Penguin Hat stamp and color him up. I then fussy cut him out and put him aside while I made my background. I used Bristol Smooth paper and Lindy's Starburst Spray in Penguin Play Periwinkle and Narwhal Navy. I love these fun sprays with sparkle, which was the perfect blizzard background. Once my background was dry, I finished my card with the Snowflake Kisses sentiment and heat embossed it with clear sparkle powder.
The stamps I used:
Snowman Joy
Bowl/Globe & Cork
Warm Winter Wishes
I hope you liked this. Thanks for visiting!
