LA-LA Land Crafts March 2025 KOTM

Posted on by pixiedonna

I’m excited to share my latest card featuring the March 2025 Kit of the Month (KOTM) from La-La Land Crafts. This month’s kit includes the charming “Marci in Overalls” rubber stamp, the “Hey Chick” clear stamp set, and coordinating dies like the Chicken Coop, Chicken Wire Circle, and Chicken Nest.

To bring the adorable images to life, I created two little scenes—each one framing the characters in their playful setting. I added extra details to make everything feel cohesive and tie in seamlessly with the sentiment. The result? A charming, card design that was fun to create!

For my card, I reached into my stash and pulled out the Spellbinders Small Die of the Month from November 2024—the adorable “Birthday Bliss” set!
I die-cut the sloth and the festive balloons from colored cardstock, adding depth and dimension with dye ink shading. To bring everything together, I created the background and added decorative elements to complete this cheerful “Birthday Bliss” card. I love how it all came together for this special birthday hop!

MFT Stamps Evolving Friends | Box Cards | Copic Markers

Posted on by pixiedonna

Happy January! We’re off to a dazzling start. January is synonymous with new beginnings, a fresh start of new ideas, plans, and hopes. I’m not a huge believer in New Year’s resolutions, instead, New Year is a time to create habit-building routines and set smaller, more achievable goals throughout the year. For me, my goal is to set at least 20 minutes a day for self-care. Whatever that looks like on that day!

Today, I’m hopping along with many talented crafters for the Cards For All Season’s Card Hop. This hop takes place every other week and is theme-based. This week, the theme was “New To You”, new product, new technique, etc.
MFT Stamps Evolving Friends
.
For my box card, I used a stamp I purchased recently from MFT Stamps called Evolving Friends! This is a perfect stamp set for me, as it is based on Pokémon, and my family is slightly obsessed with Pokémon GO!
I created the card using MFT’s Mini Slimline OTB dies and Mini Slimline OTB Grassy Hills. I then simply added a couple of clouds to set the scene.

LA-LA Land Crafts December 2024 KOTM

Posted on by pixiedonna

Hi crafty friends! I hope your holiday festivities are off to a great start. I’m sharing the final project featuring the La-La Land Crafts December 2024 KOTM. I’m a sucker for critters, and this month the clear stamp set features not one, not two, not three, but four cute critters. Well technically it’s five, but one image features two together.

I used two of the clear stamp set images on this card, the large envelope and the small envelopes to set my scene.

LA-LA Land Crafts October 2024 KOTM

Posted on by pixiedonna

Hi crafty friends! I hope your week is off to a great start and you’ve enjoyed a little extra crafty time this past weekend. I have a cute scene card to share with you today featuring the La-La Land Crafts October KOTM.

 

Club LaLa Land Crafts October 2024

Skin: E13, E11, E00, E000, E0000, B02, RV17

Outfit/Bow: C7, C5, C3, C1

The paper pack sets the scene for the entire card. For this card, I began by picking out the perfect paper, featuring a peaceful countryside scene with rolling hills. Who wouldn’t want to drive a convertible down a road like this? Am I right??!!!

 

Club LaLa Land Crafts October 2024

I trimmed the panel down to 4.25 x 5.5 and adhered it to a top folding note card. Next, I added my colored image of Marci, and the Retro Car Die-cut to the front panel. Viola! I finished by adding the sentiment, and a grass border.
