Color Cube June 2026 Collab with Teresa

Last year my friend Teresa and I did a collab each month where we shared creations being inspired by Color Cube Cards. We took a break for a bit but we're back!

You can watch my video HERE to find out more details about my card and be sure to check out Teresa's channel HERE to see what she created!

We both used Color Cube Card 337 from the original set of Color Cubes. I started by picking out some paper to match the Color Cube Card as closely as possible, although it is just a starting point. I found the Kaisercraft Seaside Collection 6x6 Paper Pad in my stash and decided to use it. I think it's from 2010 or so.

I had lots of scraps in the paper pad so I used the TOP Inky Inspiration Sketch 13.

Usually I tend to grab a stamp set from Unity Stamps when I work with Color Cube Cards but today I grabbed out the Jaded Blossom Gnome Friends Bird Die! I love that cute birdie!! 

Even though the Color Cube Card was a little challenging for me I really love how this came out!! 

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

Hope your day is ducky!

On my cruise I met a new friend and really wanted to create a card for her to thank her for helping to make my first cruise fun despite me not feeling well almost the whole time. She really is into hiding the ducks on cruises so I wanted to create a ducky card for her.

I thought the ducks in the Kraftin' Kimmie Lucky Ducks stamp set were perfect! I paired them with a fun collage die and papers from Sunny Studio.

I hope she likes it and it brings a smile to her!! 

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

I thought it would be fun to create a card from each of the TOP Inky Inspiration Sketches that Crystal Minkler puts out in her Tawny Owl Paperie | Inky Inspiration group. I've used her sketches often but haven't started at the beginning and worked my through them all.

Today I have used Sketch 20~

I used the Unity Stamps Chirp Up stamp set with Swing into Spring 6x6 papers for my card. I think it turned out so super sweet!!

Hello Tweet Friend

I'm playing along with Kendra's Card Challenge 22 again today! Today I'm using Sketch #2 along with the Unity Stamps July 2025 Kit of the Month and the Barefoot On The Porch papers.

I reversed the placement of the image as it flowed better with the bird facing into the card instead of off the card.

I think this is such a happy card and hopefully it will help someone to smile!

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

Scrappy Boy Stamps Stage Slayers Collection

I am still in love with the K-Pop Demon Hunters so I *had* to get the Scrappy Boy Stamps Stage Slayers Collection! So many fabulous crafty products inspired by the K-Pop Demon Hunters!! I created 3 cards and then I had to stop myself to get some other things done. 

My first card uses the You're My Soda Pop- Can Mini Album die along with the Harmony in the Dark stamp set and the Stage Slayers paper.

Next I had fun using the Derpy Tiger and Sussie bird from the Stage Slayers stamp set and I loved that there was even a flower pot for the Derpy Tiger, hehe!

I finished this trio of cards with a "Golden" card using the Stage Slayers stamp set!

Love Birds

I am so excited to be able to announce that I'm joining the regular design team at the Crafty Stamp Co.! I am still on the Crafty Crew Kit team too so I will have lots of Crafty Stamp Co. inspiration coming your way!!

Today I'm sharing how I created a card using the Love Is In The Air stamp set. What a super sweet set!!

I started my card by choosing my papers from the Spring Is In The Air 6x6 paper pad.

Next I stamped, colored and cut out the image with a die from my stash.

Copics Used:

Grass/Sky: G24, G21, BG000

Birds: Y38, Y32, YR21, YR04

Hearts: BG57, BG53, RV11, RV10, YR02, YR01

To finish the card I cut out my papers with dies from my stash to create my layout, stamped a sentiment,  added some white gel pen details and put it all together. I did pop the sentiment up on some foam dots for some dimension.

A very sweet card for some new or old love birds!

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

March 2026 Crafty Crew Kit | Pets Are Family

It's that time!! Time to Pre-Order your Crafty Stamp Co. March 2026 Crafty Crew Kit!! The pre-order is open from February 8, 2026 until February 22, 2026!! You won't want to miss this amazing kit!!  Some little birdies told me that this kit will not be available after the pre-order so be sure to grab it while you can!!

I couldn't wait to use the wonderful March 2026 Crafty Crew Kit again!! For today's card I used stamps from the Pets Are Family stamp set. I still had them stamped and cut out from my previous crafty session so it was just a matter of picking out the images I wanted to use.

I chose my papers next from the Fur Babies 6x6 Paper Pad. 

Then came the part I love, coloring up the cute critters! Fun fact, we've had all these critters at one point in my house! My daughter still has a tortoise named Rocket and when we re-homed our parakeet (birds and cats don't really mix) my friend who took Murphy still has her and sends me photos of her often. She's a great bird mama.

Ladybug: R32, R35, C8

Bird Cage: YR09, YR04

Bird: Y19, Y13, YR68, R17

My next step was to figure out a layout to feature these cute critters! I used some dies from my stash for the elements of the card. 

The final steps were to put the card together and add details with a white gel pen. 

This card just makes me smile! I can't wait to create more cards with this CUTE kit!
