There’s something about winter cardmaking that makes me slow down a bit. Maybe it’s the softer color palettes, the cozy themes, or the chance to let simple designs really shine. Lately, I’ve been reaching for clean and simple layouts more often, especially when I want my stamping, coloring, and ink blending to do the heavy lifting. This winter card came together during one of those creative sessions where I reminded myself that simple doesn’t mean boring—it means intentional.

There’s something so magical about pairing soft winter colors with colored pencil coloring, and this Winter Hi Card  came together beautifully using the Let It Snow Stamp Set from C. C. Designs . I stamped Elisa onto Neenah Desert Storm Cardstock  with Memento Rich Cocoa Ink  and colored her with colored pencils, which really brings out the cozy, storybook feel of this sweet winter image. After fussy cutting her out, I created a softly shaped background using Chunky A2 Scall

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

There’s something so fun about taking a classic birthday design and giving it a winter twist, and today’s project does exactly that! This trifold window fun fold comes together beautifully with the Bouncy Happy Birthday Die Se t from the Simon Says Stamp DieCember® 2025 Release . I paired it with a few tried-and-true favorites— Under Water Layering Stencils , Modern Teardrops Wafer Dies , and the Twinkle Snowflakes Embossing Folder —to build a cool, layered look that peeks

There’s just something magical about mixing soft winter hues with a sweet little reindeer, and today’s square card brings all that cozy charm to life. I started by stamping the adorable Snugglebuck image onto Neenah Classic Crest Solar White and coloring him with my Triblend Markers —those warm browns and that bright red nose make him instantly irresistible. Once everything was dry, I used circle dies to cut out both the image and the “Stay Cozy My Dear” sentiment, giving e

I had so much fun putting together this clean and layered winter card featuring the There’s Snow-one Like You  Stamp & Die Set from Pixi Dust Designs! I started by cutting all the sweet little pieces for my snow-girl—her cozy hat, gloves, and scarf—from two soft shades of pink cardstock, while her body was cut from crisp Hammermill Smooth Cardstock . A touch of ink blending with Tumbled Glass and Shaded Lilac Distress Oxides gave her a frosty glow, and the tiniest bits of

I’ve always loved finding ways to keep a design simple while still packing in plenty of visual interest, and this little cocoa-themed cutie gave me the perfect excuse to play with masking, ink blending, and a fun repetitive sentiment background. If you’ve ever wanted to make a clean and simple card that still feels polished and intentional, this is a g

Hey crafty friends! Today, I’m excited to share a sweet winter card that all started with a Valentine die set. You know those moments when you look through your stash and realize a die set you love doesn’t have to be limited to just one season? That’s exactly what inspired today’s project. I pulled out the Fox Valentine Box Die Set  from Pixi Dust Designs  and decided to give that adorable little fox a cozy winter makeover. With a few clever swaps and some creative mixing and

When a new month of Unity kits arrives in my mailbox, it always feels like Christmas morning. There’s something so inspiring about opening that package, seeing the red rubber in all its glory, and letting the creative ideas start flowing. This month, I couldn’t resist going all in.
