Welcome to the Collab Hop with Scrappy Tails Crafts and Pear Blossom Press! As you hop along with us, you’re going to see some of the prettiest light-up holiday cards, all featuring your favorite stamps and dies from Scrappy Tails Crafts, and lights from Pear Blossom Press. Get ready for lots of inspiration, and be sure to comment as you hop along, for your chance to win a $25 store credit!
My first card uses the A7 Lantern Pop Up with the Nativity Panel Add-On and the Festive Lace Crown Add-On. I absolutely LOVED putting this together and adding a light from the EZ-Lights to three panels. Here's a look at all 4 sides.
This next card uses just the A7 Lantern Pop Up dies and the EZ-Light is strategically placed behind each of the flames.
If you'd like to see how I made it, I do have a video which goes through all of the steps in putting the die together and placing the EZ-Lights. You can watch it here or over on my YouTube Channel.
Every good hop has prizes, right? So Scrappy Tails Crafts, and Pear Blossom Press are each giving away a $25 store credit! Comment on this post by November 18, 2022 to be entered to win. Winners will be posted on the Pear Blossom Press Blog on November 21st.

I have a couple of cards to share with you using some of the newly released products from Spellbinders! This card uses the Floral Reflection dies along with the Essential Floral Reflection dies. I paired these up with the Holly Flourish (previously released) embossing folder as well as the Wax Seal Starter Kit. You can see exactly how I made it here or over on my YouTube Channel.
I also have one more card to share that uses the new Postage Edge Slimlines dies. I made this simple Christmas card using all of the dies and some patterned paper from Spellbinders.
I hope these inspire you to want to get inky! I appreciate you stopping by!

Have you seen the November Amazing Paper Grace Die of the Month from Spellbinders? It's this beautiful clock, that is surprisingly easy to put together (which is why there isn't a video of this card). It can stand up on its own but still go flat to be mailed. I love stuff like that!
Be sure to check out the Spellbinders website for lots of great ideas using this die!
Hello everyone! I wanted to share the 5 cards that I made using the new November 2022 Card Club Kit from Spellbinders called Time Offline. If you know me at all, you know that my family loves to go camping in our trailer. We often times will go with my mom and my stepdad in their Class C Motorhome, which is why I made the card above the way I did. I made it for my stepdad's birthday
The next card I made uses all of the different flowers from the ephemera pack from the kit. I love those ephemera kits, because they are always jam packed with so many options.
The third card I made uses the little die set that came in the kit. It includes the mushrooms, the flower, and some leaves, along with that great framed shape. I love how this turned out!
For my fourth card, I used a bunch of the camping ephemera to make my own patterned paper. When you arrange them on and off the page as I did, it gives the illusion that there is more going on outside of what you see. The sentiment was one of the chipboard stickers.
My final card is another scene using the ephemera. I popped up the cute little travel trailer on foam squares and stamped out the stars and the sentiment using the stamp set from the kit. I know I'll be making cards from this kit over and over!
I do have a video that shows the first two cards. It would have had the rest, but the camera stopped on me. Either way, you can watch it here or over on my YouTube channel.
Thanks for stopping by!

There a lot of great new products that Spellbinders has come out with in their Sealed By line of stamps, dies, and Glimmer Plates. They all coordinate beautifully with the new Wax Seal Starter Kit (which I just purchased and is on it's way to me now!). I have a few of the products, and I'm sharing what I've made, but I can't wait to combine these with the wax seals! My first card uses the Glimmering Swag Glimmer Plate. I combined it with some Fushia Flower Glimmer Foil. The sentiment is from the All-Occasion Mailbox Greetings Glimmer Hot Foil Plate using some Moondust Glimmer Foil. It also uses the new Sealed Twine die.
This second card uses that same Glimmering Swag Glimmer Plate, but this time with some Gold Glimmer Foil. The Sealed Squiggles die is new and the sentiment comes from the Joyful Christmas Sentiments Glimmer plates.
This next card uses the Geometric Optical Background Glimmer Plate along with the Sealed Blooms dies. All of the Glimmer Foil used was Black. I love how shiny that Black is :D
My last example uses that same Glimmer Plate as above, but I paired it with the matching stencil called the Layered Geometric Optical Stencils, which comes with 4 stencils.
You can see how I made this card here or over on my YouTube channel.

I'm loving the new Floral Stag die set that Spellbinders and Ranger just came out with by Simon Hurley Create! Not only that, but they have several new stamps sets with matching dies! These came to me last week, and I couldn't wait to get creative with them. The one above uses not only the Floral Stag dies, but it also uses the Joyful Christmas Glimmer set, as well as the Holly Flourish embossing folder from Spellbinders. It all looks so great on that 5x7 background, and the images were colored with OLO Markers.
This next card is an A2 card that uses the Floral Stag and the Joyful Christmas Glimmer set along with the Candy Stripes die set. This time I decided to watercolor my die cuts using my Daniel Smith watercolors. If you'd like to see how I did it, you can watch the video here or over on my YouTube channel.

Welcome to the Heffy Doodle and WOW! Embossing Powders Collaboration Blog Hop! Design Team members from both companies are sharing inspiration using products from both companies!
I had so much fun combining products from both companies! I used the Let's Hang Out stamps and dies from Heffy Doodle, along with the Cathedral Windows dies, the Bean Scene Stencil, and the Notre Dame Stencil.
My entire background was made using various WOW Embossing Powders. I used the Midnight Sky embossing powder over the Bean Scene Stencil to give it the look of cobbled stone. I sprinkled some Vintage Peacock, Hibiscus, and Palm embossing powders over my Notre Dame Stencil with embossing ink.
Over all I just love how this 5x7 card turned out!

Hello everyone! Welcome back to my blog! Today I want to share a few of the new things that Spellbinders has just released. I got a chance to play with the Special Pet Delivery and the Winter Borders from the Holiday Cheer Enclosed line. This first one is modeled after my Siamese cats (of course, lol). I also used the previously released Happy Camper die set for that 'Merry Christmas' banner.
This second one uses both products again, and I just made the one little pup holding the 'For You' sign. I love that leaf border from the Winter Borders die set.
My next couple of cards were made using things from the Christmas Flourish line by Becca Feeken. That Nordic Ornament die is absolutely gorgeous!
This next card uses the Joy Flourish Doily and the Holly Flourish embossing folder. That embossing folder is perfect for those bigger cards like this A7 card.
Lastly, I made this super fun (and large) nostalgic paper box. This uses the Hexagon Base and the Home for the Holidays paper from the Christmas Flea Market line. This box will hold all of the Christmas cards I'm hoping to get this year.
If you'd like to see all of these in a video where I talk more about them, you can see it here or over on my YouTube Channel.

Have you seen all of the new Simon Hurley Create products? I'm playing with it all today, and I was able to make two Christmas cards. This first one uses the Polar Penguins with the Evergreens Background. I also pulled in the Whimsical Ovals stencil with the Midnight Snack Lunar Paste.
My second card uses the Polar Penguins with the Berries & Branches Background. I paired those up with the Grand Greenery Stencil and blended on some Fake Plant Lunar Paste.
You can see how I made both of these cards and see all of the new products here in the video down below or you can watch it over on my YouTube Channel.
I hope this makes you want to get inky, maybe even start on those Christmas cards.
Thanks for stopping by!

Welcome back to my blog! Spellbinders is having a new release, and I'm sharing a bunch of projects from the various collections.
Let's start with a couple of projects from the Stitchmas Christmas Collection. This first one is the Stitched Petal Diamond Background. I did this one using a gold and a red thread, and I LOVE how it turned out!
This next card I'm sharing uses the Stitched Diamond Argyle Background. I made this one with a dark navy blue cardstock and some gold thread. Both of these backgrounds could be used at any time of year, and they while they are a labor of love, if you enjoy stitching, you'll enjoy these.
Our next collection is the Celebrate the Season Collection. My first card uses the Tweet Cardinal die. I used it with the Essential Diamond dies and the Merry Glimmer Sentiments.
Here is a card I made using the Stylish Merry Christmas die. This one also uses the Essential Diamonds dies.
The next collection is the Winter Garden Collection. My first card uses the Winter Evergreen dies along with the Stylish Merry Christmas.
I also have a card using the Letterbox dies, and this was paired up with our Winter Evergreen dies as well as the Merry Glimmer Sentiments.
Our next collection is the Glimmer Greetings Collection. My first card uses the Essential Diamonds dies. I also used the Glooming Ornament and the Merry Glimmer Sentiments.
My next two cards focus on the Blooming Ornament and the Merry Glimmer Sentiments (which can obviously be used for so many of your Christmas cards!)
Lastly, we have the Parcel and Post Collection. I adore this collection! My first card uses the Parcel & Post Mailbox dies with the All Occasion Mailbox Greetings.
And my last card uses both of those previous products as well as the Parcel & Post Heart Decor.
The following video will share all of these cards, but also shows you exactly how I made this card from start to finish! You can watch it here or over on my YouTube channel.
Thanks for stopping by!
