I’m playing along with some friends who have come up with the #craftyourstash2026.
The idea is to use up old stuff in your stash, use an un inked stamp, use an old die…
I have used some old Simple Stories papers along with this new Shear Surprise stamp from Unity. Which of course I paired with the Thinking Out Loud set
That chicken wire die is one of my favorites and I have had it for many years! I definitely am on the hunt for another one
Are you tired of seeing winter cards from me yet?! I think they’re my favourite to make. Well I have another one that was inspired by the theme and toque at Inspired By and for the Sweater theme over on the Coffee Loving Papercrafters Blog Lattes & Layers
I used some older papers and ephemera from Simple Stories. The toque and sweater are from a Concord & 9th die. I also added one of my most used winter dies – the snowflake border from Poppy Stamps (I think)
I mounted the main images on foam squares
I played along with a few challenges because I just got this Unity Snowmie stamp and I was excited to ink him up. Love how big he is. I used some scraps of my Simple Stories papers. I embossed the white background to add some interest but still keep it CAS. The sentiment is from the Hello Warm Fuzzies Whit Kit (on sale so grab it, because those snowmen and penguins in the kit are super cute!)
I am playing along with the CAS on Friday challenge which is Snowman. I combined it with the sketch from Hand Stamped Sentiments Challenge and the Simon Says Challenge – use something new
The new Inspired By Challenge is up and I was inspired by the colors and winter theme. I used a new image from Angie Blom Designs along with some papers from Simple Stories. I had the die cut frame laying on my desk for a previous project so I incorporated it and added a bit of glitter to it. I was going for the look of walking around a winter ski village (here it would be Whistler, which is on my bucket list one day to spend a weekend there). To add even more detail to the card I embossed the white cardstock and then finished off the card with some snowflakes.
Now here are the Inspired By images, we would love for you to play along!
I have another card for the Coffee Loving Papercrafters Blog again today and it is your last chance to link up to the Lattes & Layers Challenge
For my card I have another cute Clip Art design, don’t you just love him? I paired it with some older Simple Stories papers
I used up some of my scraps, topped it with a snowflake border die from Poppy Stamps and some snowflakes punched out of glitter paper before mounting the image on foam squares. The sentiment die is from Stamplorations. I did fussy cut the mug and add it to the snowman’s hand.
Check out this cute collection of Clip Art Snowmen.
Now head on over to the Coffee Loving Papercrafters blog as today is the last day for the Sparkle challenge
