Grumpy Kitty Cat Lover Valentine Card
Hello, friends! Toni here, sharing a cat lover's Valentine's card.
I'm a huge cat lover and had such a great time coming up with this card.
I started by choosing a variety of coordinating cat-themed patterned papers which happened to work well with my "middle finger cat" washi.
Next I colored up the Kitty Crabby Walter image pulling grays from the background. Then I stamped the I Hate You sentiment on a tag, layering a second tag beneath and tying them together with a bold black and white twine.

Elegant Lady Card
Hello Stampers.
Vicky is here to share a card with an elegant Deco lady that can be used for many occasions.
I stamped the Deco Women and colored her with Copic markers, then I fussy cut her out.
The frame is a die-cut from my stash, which I mounted on gold cardstock. I added the lady to the gold cardstock.
I had a white ribbon, which I colored in the middle for the top ribbon, and the sides to the bottom ribbon were the same blue I used on the lady. I wrapped the ribbon around the brown cardstock.
I mounted the frame with Deco Lady on brown textured cardstock.
I had some flowers that I also colored with the marker.
I used a button for the middle of the flower, which I also colored.
The center of the flower is a brad, which I attached to the flower.
Hope you like the card.

Kitty Love
Hello Stampers. Vicky here with a kitty love card.
I used a stamp positioner so the stamp would stamp in the same place. So I masked the leaves and hearts and stamped the Two Cats In A Tree.
Then, I inked the leaves and hearts and stamped the image towards the bottom of the card.
Love was stamped in the corner.
The Heart Plain was stamped and colored.
Then, I mounted the image on red, green, and black cardstock.
Thanks for taking a look, I hope you liked it.

You're Nuts was stamped, cut out and popped up.
Hope you enjoyed Timothy's card with the cute squirrel.

A Winter Wonderland
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 ❄️✨
