LA-LA Land Crafts April 2025 KOTM Reveal

Posted on by pixiedonna

Happy April crafty friends! I’m excited to share two cards using the contents of the newest kit from La-La Land Crafts. The April 2025 KOTM is a splash of fun and crafty goodness featuring Marci with an Umbrella Rubber Stamp, Quack-tastic Clear Stamp Set, Pond Die Set, and Spring Trees Die.

My first card features Marci with an Umbrella Rubber Stamp, one of the images from Quack-tastic Clear Stamp, one die from the Pond Die Set, and Spring Trees Die. I used some other supplies to complete my very Spring scene.

For my second card, I really wanted to bring the adorable duck images to life, so I created a playful little pond scene for them to splash around in. I added the pond set against a scenery of flowers. The idea was to make the pond seem like it’s sitting in a field of flowers, straight out of nature—perfect for these charming little ducks to waddle and swim in!

Fairy Wishes | Hero Arts MMH December 2018 and Floral Border Fancy Die

Posted on by pixiedonna

There’s something truly magical about fairies—their whimsical charm and the way they bring a touch of enchantment to anything they grace. If you love fairy things, you’re in for a treat! Today, I’m excited to share a fairy-inspired handmade card featuring a reached deep into my stash, My Monthly Hero Kit from December 2018. 

Hero Arts MMH December 2018 and Floral Border Fancy Die

I paired the focal image with Hero Arts Floral Border Fancy Die, which adds an elegant and intricate floral touch that perfectly fits the magical theme. To frame the focal image, I combined two oval dies from the Nesting Oval Infinity Dies set and created a border around the image that draws the eye toward the centerpiece.

I hope this card inspires you to reach into your older stash of goodies and create something fun and magical for your projects. Happy crafting, friends! 

 

Gerda Steiner Easter Kitty | Rediscover Your Supplies IG Hop

Posted on by pixiedonna

Spring is in the air, and Easter is just around the corner! This card is part of a special Instagram hop that brings together a community of talented creators, each sharing their Easter-inspired cards. The premise of this hop is to find hidden treasures instead of buying new supplies. We all know that crafters are secret collectors and can accumulate lots of goodies in their stash.

Gerda Steiner Designs Easter Kitten

For my card, I reached into my stash and grabbed an older set from Gerda Steiner Designs called Easter Kitten. I used a Pretty Pink Posh Happy Easter Script for the sentiment and created a shaker card using Avery Elle Scalloped Burst Dies.

Isn’t Easter Kitten the most adorable thing EVER? Well, I’m a cat person, soooo… I think they are! I hope you like my card, and be sure to pop on over to my Instagram page to join in and be inspired.

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!

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.
