Birthday Candles
Hi Creative Friends, We have featured a few card designs recently using the new piercing dies by Concord & 9th. You might have guessed that we can’t get enough of them! They are fabulous! You can stitch, leave them as a blind emboss, or use a pen to accent the detail as we did in today’s project. Along with the Rectangle Frame Piercing dies, we used the […] 
Merry Christmas
Hi Creative Friends, I am sharing a Christmas card design featuring a beautiful stamp set by Penny Black called Snowbird Song. I couldn’t go through the season without using this stamp and die set at least once as it offers crisp and delicate pine branches, and if you choose, charming little birds. I didn’t use the birds this time (surprise, surprise), but I will be sure to […] 
Radiant Joy
Hi Creative Friends, It is a crisp Saturday in December, and what better way to enjoy the day than a lovely holiday card! The very talented Carrisa Wiley @carrisawiley inspired this card design. She is a wonder! For my version, I used Concord & 9th’s Halo Piercing die. combined with Spellbinders Poinsettia Spray die set. To start, I reached for my trusty Concord & 9th Assorted cardstock stack and […] 
Wild Meadows
Hi Creative Friends, I have two new card designs to share with you today. Each card uses the beautiful Wild Meadow turnabout stamp and its matching die set by Concord & 9th. Turnabouts are a lot of fun when creating awesome backgrounds. You can choose to rotate 1 to 4 times, depending on how populated you want your design. To top it off, there is a matching […] 
Warm Winter Wishes
Hi Creative Friends, We are jumping into December with a few fast, easy, but very festive card designs. Our design today fits all the criteria! This adorable penguin from the Spellbinders Dancin’ Penguin die set sets the stage for some winter fun! The penguin is so easy to make. It was simply a matter of selecting a few colors of cardstock, cutting, and assembling them. I colored […] 
Dashing Reindeer
Hi Creative Friends, I had a lot of fun creating this simple, but impactful Christmas card. The Betterpress Dashing Reindeer set made it all possible. With just a few supplies, this card design came together in a snap! I haven’t used my Betterpress system for a while, and I have missed it! There is nothing like a letterpressed design! I love the deep impressions, especially on Spellbinders […] 
Just Picked
Hello Friends! It’s Dana (IG: @dkirbystamps) here today, and I am back with a card that uses the Just Picked die set from Concord & 9th. I love the simplicity of these dies and how quickly and easily you can use them to create a card for lots of different occasions. I was actually at the store yesterday needing an engagement card. (I knew I didn’t have one at home, […] 
Christmas Eve Night
Hi Creative Friends, For everyone in the U.S., we hope you had a wonderful Thanksgiving, and you were able to share it with friends and family! The day after Thanksgiving marks the official start of the holiday season, and we are kicking it off with a still, snowy Christmas Eve Night scene. We began with a 5×7 hot-pressed watercolor panel and taped off the edges using Spellbinders […] 
Festive Sleigh Bells
Hi Creative Friends, Today, I am sharing a classic holiday card complete with a big bow and sleigh bells. The Lovely Layers Sleigh Bells die set by Honey Bee Stamps features delightful sleigh bells and festive foliage, and pairs beautifully with the new Lovely Layers: Bow Bough die set. I began this card design by cutting out the bow and foliage from three sets, each one a […] 
Love and Good Cheer
Hi Creative Friends, Now that we are getting into our winter months, it is time to share a wintery card design with sweet little birds. The stamp and die set I used was Feathered Friendship from the new collection of Penny Black. As many of you know, I love birds, so this set was perfect. There are two designs, each with birds. I chose the sweet little […]
