2026: Pink & Main March 2026 release

Hello again, sweet friends! 

I'm sharing the NEWEST Pink & Main goodies today---it's all about BIRTHDAY celebrations (and a few other things 😉)

I've got a tutorial showing how I used this TapeRunner adhesive to create those glittered bunnies! You won't believe how easy it was to do it! ***Be on the lookout for this tutorial on IG/FB and HERE👀

This rainbow background was created using a foilable panel and the NEW P&M Twinkle Inks! Here's how I made this background: 

1. Foil the background panel with Black cheerfoil
2. Cut the background into six different pieces
3.  Use Twinkle Inks to color each piece
4. Adhere back together  

EASY!

Check out the SHINE on this card! I loooooooooove the CAS design but the POW of the multiple foils! So fun! 

These gummy bears are a colored foilable panel, and I used the P&M Opal Transparency cheerfoil on them to make them into SOUR GUMMIES!!!! Well... I didn't think of that- Trav did! LOL! I put them in the Fish Bag die to make it look like they are in a baggie. I love how this card turned out:) 

MORE purple! I love the colored background with that P&M foiled gummy bear panel! Simple but FABULOUS! 

This card was not the original idea- you will have to check out my IG Stories for that photo! LOL! I love how it turned out though! 

 

I wish you could see the shimmer of the ETC. Paper EVO papers with the P&M Magical glitter! This card looks CAS but it packs the WOWZA!!!!  

 

I looooooooooooove this release because it's so fun! I have even MORE ideas that I need to create before the months up! LOL

That's it for me today.

THANKS so much for stopping by! MORE to come 💌

Be blessed ❤️

2026: Simon Says Stamp In My Heart release

Hello again, sweet friends! 

I'm sooooooooo excited about this NEW Simon Says Stamp release, In My Heart! You will see that I went a bit crazy for the flower dies and stencils💐

 

Here's what I created for this release- mostly Mother's Day cards!! 

I absolutely LOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOVE this card- it's for my mom! She loves yellow, and I knew I had to use the Friendly Blossoms stencils to create a beautiful yellow flower design for my mom's card. This turned out PERFECTLY! 

This card uses the same stencil, as well as matching embossing dies. I wanted a simple ombre design for this card. 

This card is for Trav's mom- it's got the softest embossed, cursive background called Best Mom Background stamp. I also used the Jaunty Stem flower dies to create the cascade of flowers. LOVE the blue hues! 

This shaker card was supposed to have the flowers as the clear design... but then I realized the die set is fused together so I couldn't do a full, clear flower design! LOL I think this turned out great regardless!! I used the Opal Rainbow embellishments to fill the shaker and stamped the background with the previously released Dahlia background stamp. LOVE! 

And my FAVORITE card set--- love this design! I love the striped background that I created using an alcohol marker... to the Teardrop Pinpoint frames... to the colors... to the small thread! I LOVE LOVE LOVE it!  

That's it for me today. Be sure to stop by the SSS YouTube channel for an unveiling of ALL the NEW products, as well as LOADS of inspiration! And speaking of inspiration--- you can head to the SSS In My Heart gallery for even MORE inspiration!

2026: Trav's 46th birthday- MORE greens and irons

Hello again, sweet friends! 

We celebrated Trav's 46th birthday last week and this was his card that I created. 

I wanted a CAS card... but one that had a whole bunch of greens on it. I also wanted a sentiment that was true for his age but also for golf. 

I think this turned out AWESOME! Trav even pointed out that there are 18 greens on the card (if you count even the little slivers at the top! LOL! I must know what I am doing when it comes to golf! LOL!). 

 

That's it for me today.

2026: Behind Again :)

Hello again, sweet friends! 

I'm sure this shocks you... I'm behind in my posts again! LOL🤣

 

Here's a few cards that I haven't posted from January, February, and early March🙃 

This was a super sad card to make- my friend had to put down her beloved horse, TJ. He was 38 years old and an old police horse. He loved to eat blueberries so I used a blueberry behind a horse silhouette. The sentiment is my FAVORITE from Erin Lee Creative, Take Care stamp set. Sympathy cards are so hard to make😭

Trav had to have a colonoscopy last month... oh my! Bless his heart! I had one 20 years ago and tired to warn him about it. He was so funny when he came out of the office- he told me to make a card for the entire team to thank them for being so kind. So I did🤣🤣🤣

If you know me... you know this #SAVfact: I do not throw away any scraps! I can't! I used my FAVORITE Etc. Papers EVO papers and alcohol inks to create a card last year and have been storing these scraps for "just the right card". This CAS birthday card was it! I love how it turned out! 

That's it for me today. I will be posting on Thursday all of my Simon Says Stamp NEW release creations... and Friday I will post my NEW Pink & Main designs! Be sure to stop back by for more inspiration!!! *NOTE: I know I will be posting because I'm scheduling those post NOW! LOL!

2026: TapeRunner Matching Spring Card [card #059]

Hello again, sweet friends! 

Do you remember THIS post where I shared a tutorial on how to make a spring treat bag? 

 

Well... I stated that I wanted to make a matching card... and I did:) 

I wanted to use the SAME supplies [listed below], including my TapeRunner pink adhesive and these spring papers. Now if know me, then you know I hardly ever do a shaped card. However, the spring flower wreath on the patterned paper inspired me to make a CIRCLE card! 

 

I love how this little shaped card turned out, and I think it will be a small giveaway at my Craft Night! One of the participants (maybe the one that finishes their project LAST--- I could've picked "first"... but I like last place!) will receive this little card as a gift. I'll keep you posted on who wins! LOL

That's it for me today.

2026: TapeRunner Spring Treat Bag Tutorial [project #001]

Hello again, sweet friends! 

I'm thinking of throwing a fun Girl's Craft Night at my house in a few weeks for my friends. I was thinking of doing a diamond dot keychain design. In the process of planning this Craft Night, I realized I needed some small favors. 

 

I pulled out my FAVORITE TapeRunner pink adhesive and a treat bag die that I found while moving all my dies back into the filing cabinets in the closet (we've moved these dies at least four times during my studio remodel! LOL!). 

 

Here's how I will make ALL of my treat bag favors for Craft Night: 

*NOTE: The spring butterfly paper is from a 12x12 pad of paper I found, again, while moving supplies back into proper storage in my closet!  

The key to making these treat bags quickly- TapeRunner pink adhesive (you don't have to wait on glue to dry) and a treat bag die! 

That's it for me today.

2026: Simon Says Stamp Beautiful Moments Release

Hello again, sweet friends! 

I'm back to share the NEWEST release with Simon Says Stamp called Beautiful Moments!!! 

 

Oh my goodness! I was thrilled to work with so many new dies, embossing folders, and stamps! What a great release! Be sure to stop by HERE to check out all the goodies!!! And check out all the inspiration in the gallery HERE! 

 

Here are the cards that I created using some of the goodies: 

This is called Irish Bow, and I used the Printmaking Clovers stamp set and the Double Loop Bow die for this design. This is probably my FAVORITE of all from this release:) 

This card uses the NEW Retro Daisies stencil, which I used to create a background design on a transparency using texture paste. 

This uses the same stencil but this time I used white ink on a dijon/mustard cardstock. LOVE!

This card was FUN to make! Another FAVORITE for sure:) I used the Playful Lambs embossing folder to create the background and three die cut lambs. What I love about this card is the white dots on the background--- I used a dying paint pen (I need to buy another one! LOL!) to make dots all around the design. I also added a few gray pieces of grass throughout. I looooooooooooove how this turned out! 

This card was FUN to make too! I struggled with the Pinwheel Party stamp design for awhile because I wasn't sure what to do... but then I went with a blue cardstock, white embossed image, and lots of colorful Pink & Main gems! I looooooooooooove this one too!  

Be sure to stop by my IG feed for MORE details- I always add music to my posts too so you can see what I pair with each card:) Trav sometimes helps me pick out the music too! LOL😂

That's it for me today.

Since it's DAY 2 of the blog hops, I thought I would share 2️⃣ creations using some NEW Beautiful Moments goodies.

 

First up is one of my FAVORITE cards-- I call this "Irish Bow💚". I had this idea for a striped background and heart die cut for a Valentine's Day card... but I never got the chance to make it. Once I saw the NEW Printmaking Clovers stamp set and the Double Loop Bow die set, I *knew* I had to change the theme and colors of this card idea and go GREEN! 

I just loooooooooooove these hues of green with that big green bow and gold accents- LOVE LOVE LOVE! 

My next card is another FAVORITE card design from this collection! This Pinwheel Party background stamp is very graphic and fun, and I wanted to do something different. My goal was a rainbow design... but not like rainbow inked background or papers... I was thinking a darker background, white embossed image, and rainbow gems. I added a sentiment from the Inspirational Quotes stamp set to finish this card design- it's PERFECT!!!!

I think I nailed my design- WOWZA! I love it! Truth be told- I loooooooooooove all of my projects from this release! I'll be sharing MORE soon so stop back by to check them out🙃
