Christmas Elegance in June
Hello, friends!
I can’t believe we’ve made it to June 1st already. It’s been quite the nine-month journey at our home, but we’re finally nearing the finish line—and looking forward to enjoying a slower, sweeter season. ✨
Today I’m sharing my card for the Splitcoaststampers, June Fan Club Christmas Challenge. I fell hard for this month's elegant inspiration. So sophisticated and dreamy!
I chose the Season’s Gifting set from Pajama Crafter Stamps. The sleigh image has elegant lines, and it fits the mood of the inspiration perfectly. (also sold as a bundle)

One of a Kind Snail!
Hello, crafty friends!
This week’s Inspiration Challenge at Splitcoaststampers is by Stacy, and she’s chosen Cotton & Crete as our source of creative sparks. While browsing, I found the cutest felt bee magnets—and just had to create something bee-inspired!
I started with a sweet piece of patterned paper from the adorable Bzzz paper pack. If you love bees, this paper pack is a must-have—it’s full of cheerful, buzzy goodness!
I stamped the snail from the Unfrogettable stamp set onto a large tag and added the darling bees from the Handmade By set. One thing I love about clear stamps is their flexibility. I mounted the bee stamp on the lid of my MISTI and gently curved the bee trail so it swooped around the top opening of the tag. For a second bee trail, I angled it in the opposite direction. It’s a great way to make your layout more dynamic and playful!
The sentiment is also from the Handmade By set. I tucked a bit of ribbon behind it and attached everything to the tag with tiny staples—just the right touch of whimsy.
All the papers and stamps I used are by SweetMissDaisy Designs and are available in the SweetMissDaisy Designs Etsy Shop.

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!

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! 💛

Happy to Bee Among the Flowers - SweetMissDaisy Release Day
I'm excited to share this month’s new goodies from SweetMissDaisy Designs—two gorgeous paper packs and three adorable stamp sets! Today, I'm featuring the oh-so-sweet GiGi stamp. Isn’t she the cutest? I love how she looks nestled among those vibrant flowers, with a busy little bee buzzing above her.
I paired her with the Bzzz background paper—how perfect is that? I always have the most fun when I get to mix and match coordinating stamps and papers. Everything works together so beautifully!

Hello, creative friends! Since Spring is slowly making its grand entrance, I chose cute bunnies, chicks or ducklings for the F4ALL Challenge at Splitcoaststampers.
I have a bunny, a chick, and a snail on my card! Haha, but not a duckling. I used one of the beautiful images from the Happy Spring stamp set by SweetMissDaisy Designs. This stamp set includes two good-sized images and they are so much fun to color!
We hope you join us at Splitcoaststampers! The gallery will be filled with all things sweet, fresh, and springy! 🌷✨

My second card showcases the darling Birds of a Feather stamp set—oh, so incredibly sweet! If you love birds, this charming set is a must-have for your collection! I had so much fun bringing them to life using a stained glass pin from Pinterest!

Postmarked with Love
Hello friends! Today, I’m sharing a fun and unique card featuring the Correspondence Bits stamp set and Boho Garden paper from SweetMissDaisy Designs. I wanted to create a postage-inspired collage, and these elements came together beautifully!
The Hello sentiment comes from the Henny & Penny set, adding the perfect friendly touch. But what makes Correspondence Bits truly special is the personal history woven into the images—Anna included real-life tidbits from her family! In fact, I stamped a portion of a letter that Anna’s great-grandfather wrote to her great-grandmother very lightly in the background. It’s such a heartfelt detail that makes this set extra meaningful. You can hear Anna share more about these special touches in her Release video:
I am also participating in this week's F4ALL Challenge at Splitcoaststampers!
Thanks so much for stopping by! 💌 What’s your favorite way to incorporate postage themes into your projects? Let me know in the comments!
