2026: Heart Scraps Can Make An AMAZING Card too!!!

Hello again, sweet friends! 
Remember my card that had a house filled with hearts that I posted yesterday HERE? 

Well... this card was created using the heart die cut scraps! I just couldn't throw those scraps away and had to make a card with them! 
 
I love this simple design and that the stacked hearts are colorful! I think this card turned out super cute- for scraps🤪

That's it for me today.

2026: Home = Where WE Are Together

Hello again, sweet friends! 
I'm back with another HOUSE card... this time Trav and I are celebrating 2 years of LIVING in our SC brick home! *We bought the house a week prior to moving all our stuff up from FL. 

I loooooooooooove this color combo! I love the design (I actually get to mark another box off from my Craft Bingo card because this card was inspired by Pinterest!)! I loooooooooooove the custom sentiment- I just wish when I foiled it that my ink was darker and bolder (I need to replace the ink!). 
 
I have another card that I created using the scraps from the die cut heart image--- Be on the lookout and be sure to stop back by to check that card design out👀 

That's it for me today.

2026: Playing in the Studio

Hello again, sweet friends! 
Do you ever just play around in your craft studio? 
 
Playing around and mixing and matching alllllll kind of companies/supplies is one of my FAVORITE things to do!
 
Why? Because I am free to just create. 
Because I don't have an agenda or project deadline. 
Because I can play with color stories. 
Because I can use supplies that I bought YEARS ago that I never had time for before! LOL!   

You can read MORE about this card on my IG page HERE! 
 
That's it for me today. I hope that you will play in your studio today- be sure to share with me so I can leave some love for you!!!

Supplies:
To be honest, I made this card in May 2025 and never posted it! The only thing I know I used was some YourPaperInsider papers!!! Sorry I don't have the list of everything else <3

2026: TapeRunner + Paper Smooches + Pink & Main + YourPaperInsider [Card #120]

Hello again, sweet friends! 
I'm back to share a combo card made from 4️⃣ companies: TapeRunner, Paper Smooches NEW collab with Honey Bee Stamps, Pink & Main, and YourPaperInsider!!!
I am obsssssssssssssessed with making glittered die cut pieces using my TapeRunner adhesive and Pink & Main glitter!!! I had to do it again... however, I only did this technique for the red glittered heart 🙃  
 
The multicolored glittered paper is from YourPaperInsider Box 14 papers- it's so chunky and fun! I also used the White Hemp Flower tissue paper from Box 14- this paper is so pretty and light! It added just the right detail behind my honeycomb design!
And have you checked out the NEW PS collab with HBS!??!? I am in love with Kim's designs- her style is the BEST! I love how this alcohol inked bee looks with the glittered honeycomb! And that sentiment- Kim's handwriting is the BEST!  

That's it for me today.

2026: With You- I'm Home [Card #111]

Hello again, sweet friends! 

Today it's been 2️⃣ years since we bought our home in South Carolina. 
I wanted to create a keychain type of card... so I pulled out a VERY OLD, VERY HEAVY metal key and some jewelry chain. I wanted to make a house the keychain charm, and the Pink & Main Home dies were the perfect fit! 

I finished the charm with a P&M Home Sweet Home sentiment- I truly am home when I'm with Trav. I told him that I could make a home anywhere HE was... and that's true. However, I won't lie... the last two years have been very hard. The good news is that we are strong and doing well- we will get through this hard season and hopefully look back and laugh or smile at how far we've come! I'll keep you posted as to WHEN this happens:) LOL  
 
Here's to our second year owning this SC brick home and to NEVER moving again (maybe!?!? LOL!)!!!  

That's it for me today.

2026: HOA Thank You card

Hello again, sweet friends! 
I was able to mix and match and play in my craft studio the other day! It's so fun to just create:) 

Well... I did have one assignment that was due that I *had* to work on--- I needed a Thank You card for our HOA annual meeting. I was the Vice President for 2025-2026 and am leaving the board, along with the president and secretary. I wanted to give each a card and only needed to make a masculine card as I have TONS of fun TU cards that would work for the secretary! 

I think this masculine paper and design was perfect for our president! I also love that black/white die cut house image--- that's some of my FAVORITE paper:)   

That's it for me today.

2026: Another Butterfly Card [Card #103]

Hello again, sweet friends! 
I have ANOTHER card for the Simon Says IG Challenge (things with wings)--- this time I went with a large foiled butterfly design! 
I really wanted the have just the P&M Sketched Butterfly Foilable Panel as the background (because look at it!!!! It's soooooooooo beautiful by itself!)... so I colored just a strip of light blue behind the large foiled and colored butterfly... but it didn't look right. So I went with a few strips of cardstock/washi tape and fussy cut the butterfly... added some confetti... and WOW! This is a beautiful card!!! 
That's it for me today.

2026: 2 Challenges - 1 Card + A How-To [Card #102]

Hello, sweet friends! 
I'm back to share a card that I created for 2 different challenges- the Pink & Main Monthly challenge (cute critters) and the Simon Says Stamp IG challenge (things with wings). Plus, I'm sharing an EASY how-to for foiling specific details or images with the NEW P&M Foil It! Paint & Splatter product! 
The NEW P&M Foil It! Paint & Splatter is a great product to use to create a custom foiled design (I've used it on two other cards HERE). 
 
Here is how you use it: 

  1. Use a thin, small brush to apply the liquid to your project/image-- I make sure there is a small glob for great results! **You can see in the photo below that I applied a tiny amount to the strawberry seeds! 
  2. Let dry!!! This is important! Allow this liquid to dry completely or your foiled design will smear and run, causing the foil to go to places you didn't want it to be! 
  3. Apply foil (apply small pressure or rub to make sure it sticks to the liquid) and run through your P&M Mini Minc machine

EASY! And look at the results!!! It's so fun to use! 

That's it for me today.

2026: Things With Wings Challenge Card- HELLO [Card101]

Hello again, sweet friends! 
I had a bit of free time (GASP!!!) and decided to play in the studio yesterday! 

I decided to pull out a few supplies: quilted patterned papers (I think it looks like the flying geese pattern but I could be wrong!), sewing themed dies, and butterflies. With all of these mixed and matched goodies, I created this fun friendship card.
It's perfect for the Simon Says Stamp IG Challenge! I hope one day to join in the fun with their Wednesday challenge too:) 

That's it for me today.

2026: Simple Stripes with TapeRunner Adhesive

Hello again, sweet friends! 
Today I am sharing a quick way to add colorful stripes to a negative image or panel. 
 
This card was created for my sweet friend and Finn's best friend's mom- she lost Tiberius a few weeks ago. The colorful stripes remind me of Tiberius' winter coat- he had a winter jacket that was dark blue with a hint of orange and white. He was sooooooooooooo cute! 
Here's a photo of Finn and Tiberius (without his coat) walking together. I love that Tiberius was so small and friends with Finn! 
 
Making this striped background is super EASY! The key to keeping the strips of cardstock in place is using a great adhesive like TapeRunner! I use this for ALL of my striped cardstock backgrounds!

Here are some quick steps to make your own striped background: 
Gather your supplies- I'm using TapeRunner adhesive with Pink & Main Pet Angels stamps and Paw Print dies, as well as a retired die set from Paper Smooches to create the vellum dog image.
 
You can see I already have my colored cardstock cut into strips and used washi tape to hold the strips together in the order I would like them on my cardbase. 
Next I drew a rough image of where the negative image panel would be placed on my cardbase. Then I added some TapeRunner adhesive to this exact location. After applying adhesive to the rough location of this image, I added one more layer of adhesive about an inch around this spot- just so I knew that I had enough adhesive for the image and strips of cardstock. **It's never bad to use too much adhesive :)  
I also added adhesive to the negative image panel back- this will help the strips and cardbase stick together. 
To finish the card, I just sandwiched the cardbase with the strips of cardstock to the negative image panel. EASY! 
 
I love how easy it is to use the TapeRunner adhesive! I also love how strong this adhesive is- I think I might have to use this striped background for MORE negative image paneled cards :)  
🤑Don't forget to use code SAVANNAH10 for 10% off your purchase at TapeRunner! 

That's it for me today.
