Bag of Conversation Hearts

Hello, Janet here with a bag of conversation hearts. These are a childhood tradition. I think everyone has had these sometime in their life.First, I stamped the big bag on a piece of white cardstock and cut it out. Next, I stamped the hearts on scrap white cardstock, colored them and cut them out. I arranged them on the bag. Using a thin pink ribbon, I tied a bow around the bag. Ok, sit the bag aside and let's work on the card base. The bottom layer is dark pink cardstock. The next layer is pink printed paper. Now, center the bag of candy on the card. Happy Valentine's Day is stamped on a banner using VersaFine Clair Nocturne Ink. I attached it at a slight angle across the top.

Stamps Used:

Candy hearts words set of 4

Big Bag

Happy Valentine's Day small

Products Used:

VersaFine Clair Nocturne Ink

Thanks for looking! I hope you enjoyed this card. I love the big bag stamp it is so versatile. It can be used so many ways.

Happy Valentine's Day, I Guess

Have you started on your Valentine's Day cards, or do you even celebrate?  I'd like to think my cat celebrates even if it's from under the bed when there are strangers in the house. LOL.  Toni (and her cat) here with a snarky little love card to share.

I stamped Annoyed Kitty on the front panel and watercolored the image with Zig Real Brush markers. 

I had stamped the Who You Are sentiment, thinking to leave the card clean and simple, but it felt incomplete.  Thus, I decided to add the shimmery pink border with glittery heart garland. Now it feels like a proper Valentine!

Tipsy Tidings from the North Pole

Hi Everyone, Dalis here.

Some stamp sets steal a giggle, others steal the whole show… and this one might just be my forever favorite. It’s naughty, fun, and perfectly unhinged in the most festive way. The Let’s Get Blitzen sentiment pairs like a dream with the Santa and Reindeer Dancing stamp from Crackerbox Stamps, creating a scene that feels lifted straight from the North Pole’s after-hours holiday party.

This card leans fully into the holiday spirit — both the twinkly kind and the kind poured into questionable eggnog. The colors are classic, bright, merry, and loud enough that even Rudolph would squint approvingly. It’s one of those makes that practically winks at you from the craft table.

If you’re itching to craft something funny for your family, friends, or that one person who absolutely appreciates a tipsy reindeer, this set will keep the joy flowing season after season. Here’s to cards that toast, twirl, and tiptoe on the naughty list. Cheers! 

Supply List:

Santa and Reindeer Dancing

Get Blitzen 

Memento Tuxedo Black Ink 

Additional Supplies: Snowflake brads, bling, pattern paper, and dies

Until next time— Stay colorful, stay crafty! -- Dalis

Be Thankful For Who

This quote is very wise words from a young man.

I stamped the tree from the Charlie Brown Tree and Saying stamp set

using Memento Tuxedo Black Ink. I colored it using alcohol markers and 

layered it on top of blue pattern paper.

I stamped the sentiment using Memento Lady Bug Ink.

I layered it on top of blue cardstock.

I used two different Charlie Brown themed pattern papers

for the main layer of the card.

I used foam adhesive to pop the tree layer up and glued

the sentiment directly to the card front.

Thanks for stopping by,

Timothy

An Evening of Elegant Light

Hi Everyone, Dalis here.

We’re leaning into the soft-glow side of the season with the Candles 3 Lit stamp from Crackerbox Stamps, and goodness does it deliver a quiet kind of magic. The colors drift away from the usual holiday palette and settle instead into something gentle and refined, like a whispered toast in a dim room.

The thread accents and tiny embellishments weave in just enough texture to make the design linger in the mind long after you set the card down. Nothing loud, nothing hurried, just a graceful trio of candles carrying their own hush of warmth.

A little glow, a little shimmer, and a whole lot of elegance. This one feels like a deep breath wrapped in cardstock. 

Supply List:

Candles 3 Lit

Memento Tuxedo Black Ink 

Additional Supplies: pattern papers, bling, dies, and thread.

Until next time— Stay colorful, stay crafty! -- Dalis

I stamped all of the images and cut them out.

While I was making this card, I thought of so many other things I could put into it.
