I recently shared a full, start-to-finish tutorial over on the Miss Ink Stamps blog  where I walked through how to create these Magical House Personality cards  using collage stamping and dies. That post is very product- and process-focused, so today I wanted to take a step back and talk about the thinking  behind the designs instead—the creative decisions, what worked, and how you can adapt this idea using supplies you already own. These projects ended up being one of those

If you love clean & simple Christmas cards  but want to step outside the usual red and green, this project is such a fun way to do it. I used the I Believe Stamp Set from Miss Ink Stamps  and stamped the bold sentiment in pink ink right in the center of the card front, then built the design by stamping the playful underwear images around it in a dark brown ink. All of the images were colored with my Ohuhu Brush Markers , using a nontraditional yet seasonal color palette  pul

Today’s project is all about creating a soft and sweet clean-and-simple Winter Birthday Card using some of my favorite sets from Miss Ink Stamps . I started by stamping the Little Angel images from the Little Angel Stamp Set onto Neenah Classic Crest Solar White Cardstock and building the snowy backdrop with the Holly Jolly Stamp Set . Once everything was stamped in crisp Memento Tuxedo Black Ink , I brought the scene to life with my Ohuhu Brush Markers , starting with the

Today I’m sharing a fun little “pick-me-up” card I created for Miss Ink Stamps, and I couldn’t resist reaching for the Slugs and Kisses Stamp Set , the Slugs and Kisses Outline Dies , and the Cobblestone Stencil  for this one. I started with a clean top-fold A2 card base made from Neenah Ultra Thick Cardstock , then masked off a circle using one of the Background Basics Stencils  from Penny Black. Inside that masked area, I blended soft gray ink over the Cobblestone Stencil

There’s something about holiday gift tags that always sparks a little extra joy for me. Maybe it’s because they’re small, quick to make, and instantly festive, or maybe it’s because I still remember helping my grandmother make tags for every single present under her tree. She always said the tag was the first “sneak peek” of the gift, so it deserved just as much attention as the wrapping itself. These Snow Wizard Holiday Gift Tags from Miss Ink Stamps brought back that same f

Sometimes the simplest cards are the ones that make me smile the most. I’ve always loved the idea of clean and simple designs that still feel full of character, and today’s project does exactly that. This card features the Stuck Duck Stamp Set  and Air Mail Frame Stencils  from Miss Ink Stamps —a perfect combo for creating something minimal yet playful. I wanted the design to stay crisp and uncluttered but still have a fun focal point, and this little duct-taped duck delivere

Sometimes clean and simple cards can be the trickiest to design, can’t they? You want something elegant and uncluttered—but not flat or boring. That was exactly the challenge I set out to solve with this project. I wanted to create a clean, square card design that still had plenty of interest and texture without relying on layers or busy backgrounds. The solution came in the form of some of my favorite products from Miss Ink Stamps: the Best Sort Stamp Set , Best Sort Outline
