Let Freedom Ring - Pajama Crafter Stamps Release Day

🎆 Kickoff to Patriotic Summer — Let Freedom Ring!
Red, white, and crafty? Yes, please! The Kickoff to Patriotic Summer at Pajama Crafter Stamps is here, and I couldn’t be more excited about this bold and festive new release. If you're dreaming of stars, stripes, and sunny summer days, you’re in for a treat. Whether you’re crafting for Memorial Day, the Fourth of July, or just love that classic Americana vibe, this collection has everything you need to spark your creativity.

For my project, I reached for the Honor Valor Pride stamp set and let watercolor take the lead. I created a soft, expressive background, letting the pigment flow freely for that natural, heartfelt touch. The sentiment—“From every mountainside, let freedom ring!”—really spoke to me. It felt like the perfect message for this time of year: a celebration of freedom, unity, and pride.

This was such a joy to make, and I love how the message pairs with the elegant simplicity of the watercolor. It’s a reminder that even simple supplies can make a big statement.

Here’s a peek at the finished card:


To celebrate, our team is sharing fresh, fiery inspiration on Instagram—and there are giveaways involved! Be sure to check out all the amazing makes and see how everyone is bringing the heat with their patriotic projects. You might even score some goodies from the new release!

The full release is available now at Pajama Crafter Stamps!
Wishing you a season full of creativity, celebration, and star-spangled joy. 🌟

Happy crafting!

One of A Kind

Hello, friends!
I’m so excited to share a card I made featuring the super sweet chick from the brand-new Handmade By stamp set from SweetMissDaisy Designs! 🐥 This set is full of charm and so versatile—it includes adorable images and thoughtful sentiments that can be used on the front or back of your cards.

For this card, ArtNudge525B inspired me. I used Chicken Wire Paper Pack strips to mimic the multicolored wooden background from the photo prompt. I added a piece of Chicken Yard Notepad paper on the inside of the card to write my note in style! The chick’s balloon matches the printed one on the inside. 💙🎈

I absolutely adore how fun and flexible the Handmade By set is. Each stamp could easily work as a subtle watermark or as the star of the show, like I’ve done here. You can find this delightful set and all the new monthly releases at the SweetMissDaisy Designs Etsy shop!


Thanks so much for stopping by! 💛



Chicken Yard Note Pad paper easily adheres to the inside of the card with a touch of tape runner adhesive! 



As a finishing touch, I stamped the sweet “handmade especially for you” sentiment from the set on the back of the card—such a perfect little touch!

Shell of a Time!

The Free For All Challenge (F4A794) at Splitcoaststampers this week is all about food, and I couldn’t resist joining in with a playful card featuring the coolest peanut around! I used a stamp from Stadium Food by Pajama Crafter Stamps — just look at this little guy rocking his green sunglasses! He’s clearly having a shell of a time.

To make the card even more personal, I added green patterned paper and matching shoes — a tribute to my sister’s favorite color. My sister will get a kick out of the sentiment! 

Food-themed cards are such a treat to make, and I love how this one turned out — equal parts silly, sweet, and special. 💚

Join the challenge and share your own take on food — from picnic spreads to café culture, let’s get creative and hungry!



Thanks for taking a look!

New Release from SweetMissDaisy Designs – Meet Roo, Unfrogettable, and More!

 It’s time to celebrate—SweetMissDaisy Designs just launched an adorable new release, and it’s full of creative possibilities! This drop includes charming new stamp sets, two beautiful paper pads, a coordinating note pad, and a set of stickers—all designed to make your projects pop with personality.

🐔 My first project features Roo, the dapper rooster, paired with the Chicken Wire paper pack. I accented the sentiment tag with a piece of red gingham ribbon to echo Roo’s stylish flair. I also used one of the playful flower embellishments—it has an open center that lets you choose between two different smiles or keep it solid for a more classic look.

🐸 Next up is the Unfrogettable frog card! This little cutie is all decked out in a party hat and colored to match the Unfrogettable Note Pad. For the background, I used a patterned piece from the brand-new Ribbit Paper Pack—it’s filled with charming little illustrations that bring everything together. Inside the card, I added a piece of the matching notepad (Pond Life). It’s a sweet little surprise for the recipient and makes it easy to write a message on the dark card base.



Don’t miss out—head to the SweetMissDaisy Designs Etsy shop for the full release!

Happy crafting and happy release day! 💛

Hello and welcome to Opening Day of the Pajama Crafter Stamps Release!
As the poster (pictured below) proudly says, this month is all about Baseball – Golf – Good Eats – and Softball! ⚾⛳🌭🥎

Today I’m featuring the Stadium Food stamp set! It includes four adorable characters and seven punny sentiments that are perfect for summer cards and crafty fun. I had such a great time coloring the cola bottle—it turned out so yummy-looking, it’s making me thirsty! 😄

I paired the cola with the charming sandwich wrap and two clever sentiments for a card full of flavor and fun.
