Sweet November Stamps Spooky Season Spooktacular | Halloween Is Back

In the Sweet November Stamps Facebook Group there is a new challenge, Spooky Season Spooktacular! Each week there is a prompt you create a card with. For the third week the prompt is: Create A Scene.


I'm not going to lie, at first I was thinking I'd skip this week as creating scenes is not my strong suit but then I told myself I wasn't going to get better at them unless I tried so I tried. LOL!

I used the Halloween Is Back stamp set as the focal point of my scene. Another stamp set I've had for awhile and not used! I used Amy's sample on the website as inspiration. I used several stamp sets and lots of masking to create my door scene. A fun sentiment finished off the card, "Wishing You all The Treats Your Bag Can Hold".



Have an amazing day! Go do something for yourself and go get crafty!

Hope Your Day Is Crater Than Ever!

Today I'm sharing the card I created for my daughter for her birthday! She has a tortoise named Rocket and also enjoys things involving space so I thought the Pajama Crafter Stamps Such An Asteroid stamp set would be perfect for her!

I was so pleased that I was able to successfully use the Pear Blossom Press Twinkle Lights to "light up" the rocket! I have a YouTube short showing it lighting up HERE!





The Pajama Crafter Stamps Celestial Dreams 6x6 Paper Pad is gorgeous and was the perfect background! I know she's going to love it!!

Have a great day! Go do something for yourself and go get crafty!

June 2026 SheetLoad of Cards | Happy Birthday

I recently discovered that our local food pantry makes up "birthday bags" to give out to people. I thought it would be fun to donate some birthday cards each month for them to put in the bags. I'm going this week to see if they would like to have them or not so I wanted to take some cards with me in case they accept my donation.


The June 2026 SheetLoad of Cards was perfect as it makes 12 cards. I changed the sketch a little bit, instead of tearing the paper I added a strip of paper created with the Kat Scrappiness A2 Stitched Strips Dies.

The arches I used are from Jaded Blossom, Stitched Arch Dies and the stamp set is from Sweet 'n Sassy Stamps (now Creative Worship), Bold Birthday. The paper is some from my stash, an older Recollections Hot Buy stack, Happy Cake Day!


The food pantry thought it was a great idea so I'm happy I thought of it. Now each month I will try to donate birthday cards and the supplies for the birthday bags!

Have a wonderful day! Go do something for yourself and go get crafty!

Inky Paws Challenge #256- Final Week

Today is a bittersweet day for me as it's my last post as a team member of the Inky Paws Challenge team. After 3 years I decided to step down from the team but I will play along when I can and I will always love Newton's Nook! A big thank you to Jen, the owner of Newton's Nook, for giving me this opportunity and for such an amazing team with no drama!

Today I have more inspiration for the current Inky Paws Challenge! The challenge runs through September 26, 2025! Link your creations on the Inky Paws Challenge Blog for a chance to win $20 store credit at the Newton's Nook Shop! Check out the Challenge Rules before you create your project!

We couldn't decide between fall and Halloween so we're choosing BOTH! Create a card with a fall and/or Halloween theme to join. Create a thank you using fall images and colors. Try creating a cute (or spooky) Halloween scene. This time of year is filled with frights and delights! Choose your favorite and enter today!


I went with a Halloween theme this week! I used the Spooky Coffees stamp set/dies along with the Halloween Time 6x6 paper and Frames & Tags Die.

Foiling Friday | Merry & Bright

It's time for another Foiling Friday! Yay! You can watch my video for today's cards HERE!


I decided to switch gears from birthday cards to holiday cards this week! I pulled out the Pink & Main Merry & Bright Foilable Kit and the Dimesional Red CheerFoil!

I used one of the backgrounds and sentiments from the Merry & Bright Foilable Kit to create two cards this week.

The first card uses the sentiment along with the Pink & Main Merry & Bright 6x6 Paper Pad. The paper is a little non-traditional and makes me happy! I think the pretty foiled sentiment really stands out!




The second card uses the background along with the Pink & Main Oh My Garland stamp set. What a cute stamp set!! I heat embossed the sentiment so it would stand out.




Have a marvelous day! Go do something for yourself and go get crafty!
