  Here's something for all you readers out there! These 2 lovely SN Gals are taking a break with their favorite books.  For this card I used the girl on the lounge (I'm thinking this is Laura). Spring is slowly starting so I made sure the tree in her garden is showing signs of that. I placed the kitty cat right up against her for a bit of snuggling.  To create the scene I also used the new Simple Room Reading nook add-on as well as the Simple Room Autumn add-on. MFT sentiment. I have been crazy for green lately, so there's A LOT of that on this, although in a more dull variation.

  Hey SNS friends! Amy whipped up some postage pal cuties to fit into all your postage dies. Cool, right!? For this card I used the Postage Pals Landscape sets (yes, there's also a Portrait set) and a couple of the stamps from the Year Round Post Marks set (this set covers holidays, seasons and birthdays so check it out!). I added a bunch of the images to my postage panel (Waffle Flower A7 die) and added the cat from the SN Gals Libby and Laura set as well as a butterfly from the Little Moments set.

  Guess what! The day of the first Sweet November Stamps release of 2025 has finally arrived! This release offers so many wonderful Stamps, so if you love reading, critters, fairies, flowers and/or postage card layouts you'll want to check it out! For my first inspirational card I used the adorable Spill the Tea set. This time around the adorable mice are having tea rather than coffee, and I went with a green lemon tea and decided to adorn the tea pot with some of the images from last years Bountiful Blessings: Squeeze the day. I made a rocking card and added shaker bits from the new Tea Time mix sequins. Don't forget to join our Insta hop where YOU could win the entire release! Thanks for stopping by! Happy crafting!

  Today I'm sharing a fun flip card using Sweet November Stamps Valentine Sweetwees. I once again followed the tutorial from Torico along with my My Favorite Things Rectangle Flop card die.

  Hello and welcome to my first (and perhaps only) diy Halloween potion blog post. Today is release day for the Potion Labels digital release over at Sweet November Stamps and I cannot tell you how much fun I had creating these labels, potions and vials. Grab a cuppa, 'cause this is a long post. The release offers 7 sets (6 label sets and 1 set of bottles), and each of the label sets contains a ready to use label + all the used elements as separate files, including a blank label, main image and texts. Hope that makes sense. It realy gives you huge amounts of posibilites. I've used the ready to use labels. I'll explain them separately with details on which Copics I used and the potions/content. And believe you me, they were all easy to make and I already had everything at home. The "vials" are jars and bottles from condiments, food oil, etc. that I was saving for diy projects. Pixie Dust Texts: Pixie dust, Sprinkle with care, Since 1692 Copics used: E13, E11, E21, ...

Sing a song of Halloween, Pumpkins everywhere  Cats and bats and witches flying through the air.  This is Sorsha from Sorsha's spell room. Her eyes look a bit crazy wild and I just felt like she was chanting.  This sentiment seemed fitting so I added a cat, pumpkins, witches anf bats - all from Background builder: Spooky tree.  Thanks so much for stopping by, and happy crafting!  Tina 

The new SNS Gal Desdemona is perfectly creepy.  The cute little make-believe witch has nothing on her, for sure. Still, she is brave enough to trick or treat.
