Hey friends!

I’m excited to share this warm and whimsical card featuring products from the latest Trinity Stamps release—a delightful project I got early access to through the Crop & Create Delivered workshop hosted by Scrapbook & Cards Today Magazine!

Let’s be real—what’s better than a card shaped like cute coffee cups with punny sentiments?

💌 Project Details:

This card collection features three takeaway-style coffee cups, each created using the Take-Out Coffee Cup Die Set by Trinity Stamps. Each cup has its own unique “flavor” of personality, and I had a blast playing with the mix-and-match color combos (all cardstock used is from Spellbinders Color Wheel collection):

💗 Left Cup: Soft pink and kraft combo with a sparkly heart—because “Have a cuppa on me” deserves a little shine!

❄️ Middle Cup: A wintry palette with icy blues and a snowflake that surrounds the circular pun: “Words cannot espresso what you mean to me.”

❤️💚 Right Cup: Classic holiday vibes with a bold red wrap, white stars, and adorable coffee bean icons—perfectly paired with: “Have a cuppa cheer.”

Best of all? This design fits perfectly in a standard A2 envelope and stays nice and flat for easy mailing and affordable postage—no bulky foam needed!

✨ Techniques Used:

Ink blending on the sleeves and lids for added depth Heat embossing for the snowflake detail Layered die cuts using the Take-Out Coffee Cup Die Set Glitter and glossy accents for texture and sparkle

☕ Why I Love This Project:

These cuppas are so fun and versatile! Whether you’re sending warm wishes, holiday cheer, or a heartfelt thank-you, this card brings cozy vibes and personality with every sip—er, sentiment.

You could even switch up the colors to reflect your favorite coffee chain, create a holiday set, or turn them into a fun card set gift!

📦 About the Workshop:

The Crop & Create Delivered workshop is always such an inspiring event! Early access to brand new products, hands-on instruction, and a curated kit full of crafty joy. Trinity Stamps knocked it out of the park with this playful and caffeinated collection!

Thanks so much for stopping by my crafty corner!

Spellbinders Spring In Kyoto Collection: Kokeshi Dolls

Posted on by

These gorgeous projects are brought to life with the enchanting Spring in Kyoto collection from Spellbinders — and let me tell you, this die set is nothing short of magical!

Inspired by the charm and tradition of Japanese Kokeshi dolls, the intricate layering dies let you build sweet, stylized figures with endless customization options. From the delicate fans and hair accessories to the beautifully detailed kimonos, this set allows for both minimalist elegance and maximalist flair — depending on your creative mood.

For my first card, I went clean and simple with a bold black, white, and violet palette, letting the doll and sentiment truly shine against a crisp background.

The second design leans fully into the ornate beauty of the collection, featuring layered fans, stitched blossoms, and metallic accents that make it feel like a miniature art piece.

Whether you’re crafting for love, friendship, or just to celebrate beauty in the everyday, these Kokeshi dies are the perfect focal point for a heartfelt handmade card.

✨ Craft tip: Paper piecing with glossy cardstock adds that perfect lacquered finish to mimic real Kokeshi dolls — and foam tape gives just the right amount of dimension.

Would love to know — are you team minimalist or maximalist when it comes to cardmaking?

Thanks for stopping by!

Taylored Expressions Paint The Town & Paint Brush

🎨 Paint the Town with Color and Creativity!

Talk about a burst of crafty color! This cheerful card was created using the Paint the Town and Paint Brush die sets from Taylored Expressions, and I couldn’t be more in love with the results.

Based from the inspiration tutorial on the TE YouTube channel, this die duo is perfect for rainbow lovers, art enthusiasts, or anyone who wants to send a splash of happy.

The paint cans and brushes come to life with endless color possibilities — I used bold ombré ink blending to give each can its own personality, then layered them on a softly stenciled background of colorful bubbles for a little extra pop and playfulness.

Adding just a few bubble drops in each corner for balancing accents, they added that perfect polished touch, while the layering design of the brushes and dripping paint make the whole scene feel dynamic and dimensional.

💡 Pro tip: Try popping up a few of the paint cans with foam squares for even more visual depth — and don’t be afraid to mix up your color order for a quirky, artistic vibe!

Whether you’re crafting for a birthday, thank you, or just because, this set makes it so fun to send a message that says: “You color my world.”

Let me know what colors you’d use to paint your own crafty masterpiece!

Spellbinders Steamboat Willie – Mickey & Minnie Mouse

Who says Steamboat Willie has to stay black and white? I had an absolute blast putting a fresh spin on the Spellbinders Steamboat Willie Die Set — transforming it into a sweet and colorful tribute to everyone’s favorite couple: Mickey & Minnie Mouse!

This card is a playful twist on a classic. I brought the vintage-style silhouette dies to life with vibrant cardstock to match Mickey and Minnie’s iconic color palettes — bold red, sunny yellow, and of course, classic black and cream. I paired the duo with a large, stitched red heart to give it that unmistakable lovey-dovey vibe, perfect for Valentine’s Day, anniversaries, or just a little everyday magic.

The dimensional layering of each element really makes the characters pop — just look at those eyelashes and Minnie’s shoes! And the little flower? Swoon. It’s the tiniest touch that brings this whole scene together.

💡 Craft tip: Don’t be afraid to break from the original color scheme of a die set — especially when it gives you room to reimagine beloved characters in your own style!

Whether you’re a Disney die-hard or just love making character-inspired cards, this is one die set that’s full of potential beyond the steamboat.

Let me know in the comments — are you team Mickey or team Minnie?

Classic Cars by Mindy Eggen for Spellbinders – Father’s Day Card

Every year me and my dad go to a local car show on Vancouver Island called the Show & Shine in Qualicum Beach

This year with my health not being so great. I was concerned I wasn’t able to make it so I wanted to make sure that he didn’t miss out.

Seeing this Classic Card collection from Mindy Egan for Spellbinders was perfect, and I knew it as soon as I saw it! I made sure that I got it the second it was released. and I made him a card from what I can remember of the cars he always points out as some of his favourites.

Using the layered stencil set long with the classic car die set and the stamp set I made the scene as bright and happy as I could.

I had also purchased the glossy pastel cardstock from Scrapbook.com exclusively for this project knowing it would make the car & tires really pop. It’s perfect! Next up: to try: glossy red!

49th & Market Rust & Rev’s Collection

Grit, Gears & Grunge — The Charm of Rust & Rev 🚙🛠️🧡

I’m so excited to share a full lineup of projects created with the 49 and Market Rust & Rev and Rust & Rev 2.0 collections — a perfect match for those who love a gritty, vintage aesthetic packed with texture, tools, and rugged retro charm.

From rusted pickups to vintage gauges, oil-stained textures, and gear-filled workbenches, these collections are brimming with bold masculine energy. Some of these cards were born out of a workshop led by the incredibly talented Deanna Hutchinson at Clipper Street Scrapbook Company in Langley, and others were built from scratch at home as I got more and more inspired by the elements in these kits.

Each design is layered with dimensional die cuts, weathered textures, and industrial ephemera that tell a story — whether it’s one of resilience, grit, or just good old-fashioned horsepower. Sentiments like “Built for This,” “The Man, The Myth, The Legend,” and “The Best View Comes After the Hardest Climb” make these cards ideal for Father’s Day, birthdays, or for anyone who appreciates the beauty in patina and the pride of a well-worn toolbox.

💡 Design tip: Lean into the grunge! Use inked edges, distressed layers, and mixed media elements to enhance the raw, mechanical feel of the collection. And don’t be afraid to go full 3D with your embellishments — bolts, chains, and gauges are all fair game!

Big thanks to Diana for the inspiration and instruction — and if you’re a fan of masculine themes or automotive nostalgia, this collection is a must-have.

Got a favorite from the batch? Let me know which card revs your creative engine the most!

Online Card Classes: Celebrate Collection by Kristina Werner Concord & 9th

I have been a member of Online Card classes founded by Kristina Werner and friends for many years. There are some great classes that I go back to when I am really stuck for inspiration.

This past Christmas, Kristina curated a specially designed & curated set for a workshop on the OCC platform. This was the first time they had provided product bundles and I loved it. There was a range of cards to suit all tastes & skill.

Kristina recently curated another product bundle called “Celebration”. I immediately registered and purchased the products; celebration & birthday cards are always a staple to have on hand & to create.

Concord & 9th Ink colors: Wildberry, Clementine, Harbor, Poppy

Congratulations and general “Yay for you” cards aren’t something I usually have in my stash, so I made a point to create a general “yay” card to have handy. Keeping the color palette bright and happy keeps it gender neutral so that I can easily give it to any recipient

Concord & 9th ink cookies: Aqua Sky, Wildberry, Buttercup (shaded with Creamsicle), Poppy, Pink Lemonade (shaded with the brush used for Wildberry balloon)

All of my cards were inspired from the projects from the workshop. We received the Workshop PDF in advance so I went rogue and started creating before the class videos came out.

There are a few projects I had trouble with creating in my own so I am looking forward to the instructional videos from the instructors for more projects to add to my stash.

Honeybee Stamps Lovely Layers Playing Cards & Lovely Layers Roll The Dice

From the Valentines release this card made with the Honey Bee lovely layers, playing cards and lovely layers roll. The dice set took me quite a while to make. I love all the elements so much. I want to include everything so I had to very carefully plan out how to incorporate as many ill as I could without making the car look cluttered.

Using the exclusive car stock pack that came with the purchase as a free gift for the plane cards I love the glossy finish that the cards stock had. The embarrassing folder from the collection was that perfect subtle hint for the background I use a little bit of gold wax to highlight the raised images just to bring out the images a little bit more so you could see it underneath all of thr elements

For now, this card is done however, my next attempt I think this card at the site I’m going to try and make the rule that will spin. Wish me luck.!
