Gina K. Designs - September 2026 NEW Release - Christmas Floral Builder

Gina K. Designs September 2026 Release is NOW available and can be found HERE.

Hello everyone! 

I’m excited to share these two Christmas cards featuring the newly released Christmas Floral Builder Stamp Set illustrated by Arita Singh from Gina K. Designs! 

Be sure to check out ALL the new products release this month.  You can also find lots of inspiration over at Gina K. Designs & Stamp TV Friends Facebook page.  All supplies I used are listed below.

Here are my cards for your inspiration:

For my first card, I used the NEW Christmas Builder Stamp & Die Set.  I stamped, colored the candy canes with alcohol markers, and die cut them, arranging them into a heart shape with a bow for a festive finishing touch.  I created the striped background using the Sassy Stripes stamp set with Cherry Red ink. Master Layouts 18 was used to cut the frame, and Master Layouts 2 provided the black layer to make the design pop.

Merry Christmas Poinsettias

My second card features the beautiful poinsettias from the Christmas Floral Builders Stamp Set. I die cut and layered the poinsettias to add dimension and bring the flowers to life. I used Master Layouts 2 for the layers and added a heat-embossed sentiment, grounded with the pretty lace die from Master Layouts 18. The panel was adhered to a Passionate Pink card base, and I finished the design with pink pearls from the Pearl Mix Rainbow.

I love how these two cards showcase different ways to bring festive Christmas designs to life with the new Gina K. Designs products!

Newton's Nook Designs - September 2026 Falloween Release

Hello everyone! 

I’m excited to share a fun autumn card featuring this month’s new release from Newton’s Nook Designs! These adorable kitties and dogs are ready to celebrate fall, and I had so much fun creating these cozy autumn scenes.

Here are my cards showcasing the new release:

My first card I used the new Autumn Cats Stamp Set to create these sweet feline friends surrounded by colorful fall leaves. The Torn Edge Frames Die Set adds a lovely layered look, while the Autumn Leaves Paper Pack brings all those beautiful fall colors together.

I love how the little details, from the basket of apples to the pile of leaves, create such a warm and playful autumn feel. This new release is perfect for sending a little fall happiness to someone special!

For my second autumn card, I featured these adorable pups enjoying the fall season!  The Autumn Dogs Stamp Set paired with the Autumn Leaves Paper Pack creates a fun, festive design. I used the rounded corner stitched die from the Arched Frames Die Set and added a grassy border with the Land Border Die Set (previously released) to complete the scene.

Thank you so much for stopping by, please come back tomorrow for more inspiration from the new release.

Retro Rubber Challenge - Tic Tac Toe

Hello everyone!

I am here with Retro Rubber Challenge blog and we have a new challenge, which is tic tac toe. Be sure to stop over on the Retro Rubber Challenge blog to get more inspiration, the design team has some wonderful creations!

The rules to play along with Retro Rubber Challenge is very simple, make sure the stamp you use on your project is at least one year or older. For more details on the rules, you can find them over on Retro Rubber Challenge blog.

Here is my take on the tic tac toe, my tic tac toe is die cut or punch, kraft paper and embossing.

I'm embracing all the beautiful colors of fall with this autumn-inspired card! I used Gina K. Designs' Falling Leaves embossing folder, paired with the Lovely Layers Maple Leaf from Honey Bee Stamps. The sentiment is from Taylored Expressions called "Oh Yes You Did" which was released June 2022 (it is retired). The colorful maple leaf and glittery details make this card perfect for welcoming the fall season!

Thank you for stopping by.

STAMPtember® 2026 Gina K Designs - Life's Best Moments

Hello everyone!

I am here with Gina K. Designs and Simon Says Stamp celebrating STAMPtember®! Simon Says Stamp has collaborated with Gina K. with an exclusive stamp set designed by Gina K. called "Life's Best Moments". This set is only available while supplies last, so don't wait, head over to Simon Says Stamps and get this set. For more inspiration, please stop by Simon Says Stamps blog.

Here are my cards for your inspiration:

My first crard I created this beautiful gatefold card featuring the exclusive Life’s Best Moments stamp set, designed by Gina K. Designs for the Simon Says Stamp 2026 Collaboration.

I used the Master Layouts 13 and Glorious Gatefolds dies to create the gatefold design. For the floral focal point, I stamped and die cut the images from the Life’s Best Moments Bundle, then added color and dimension with the coordinating stencil and ink blending.

The sentiment is from the Life’s Best Moments Stamp Set. I stamped, heat embossed, and die cut it before adding it to the card front.

I love how the rich blue, soft purples, and fresh greens come together to create an elegant card that truly celebrates the sentiment: Life’s best moments are shared with friends like you.

For my second card featuring the exclusive Life’s Best Moments stamp set, designed by Gina K. Designs for the Simon Says Stamp 2026 Collaboration, I used the same supplies but created a classic A2-sized card.

I used the Glorious Gatefolds dies to create the decorative panels and layered them onto a vibrant purple card base. The beautiful floral images from the Life’s Best Moments Bundle were stamped, die cut, and ink blended using the coordinating stencil. I love how the shades of purple and green bring these gorgeous flowers to life!

I finished the card with a sentiment from the Life’s Best Moments Stamp Set, which I stamped, heat embossed, and die cut before adding it to the center of the floral arrangement. A few clear embellishments add the perfect finishing touch.

I love the sentiments in this set, I will be creating more cards with this set!  I hope you were inspired and was able to get this set, remember this is while supplies last!

Hello everyone!

I am here with Gina K. Designs and Simon Says Stamp celebrating STAMPtember®! Simon Says Stamp has collaborated with Whimsy Stamps with an exclusive stamp set called "Owl-o-ween". This set is only available while supplies last, so don't wait, head over to Simon Says Stamps and get this set. For more inspiration, please stop by Simon Says Stamps blog.


Here are my cards for your inspiration:

I had so much fun creating this spooky and whimsical mini slim line shaker card! I used the STAMPtember Whimsy Stamps Owl-o-ween stamp set for the adorable owl images, coloring them with alcohol markers before die cutting them out.

For the shaker background, I used the Whimsy Stamps Mini Slim Pickens Gumdrops Die and created a cloudy night sky behind the openings. I filled the shaker with stars from my stash for a little extra sparkle and movement. The colorful plaid patterned paper from Newton’s Nook Designs adds the perfect festive touch and helps make the owls pop.

The sentiments are from the Owl-o-ween Stamp Set. I stamped and heat embossed them with white embossing powder, then die cut them for a bold finish.

I love how this card combines cute Halloween images with a fun shaker element—perfect for sending a little Owl-o-ween fun!

Here is my second card:

For my second card which is an A2 card, I used the adorable Owl-o-ween Stamp Set from Whimsy Stamps. I stamped the cute owl image and colored it with alcohol markers before die cutting it out.

For the background, I used the Whimsy Stamps Comic Burst A2 Die and created a spooky cloudy sky using the Gina K. Designs Sea, Sun and Sky Stencil. To add a little sparkle, I die cut gold glitter paper and inserted the pieces into the expressions of the Comic Burst die.

The sentiments are also from the Owl-o-ween Stamp Set. I stamped and heat embossed them with white embossing powder, then die cut them for a bold finish.

I love how the purple, gray, and gold come together to create a fun and slightly spooky Halloween scene!

Newton's Nook Designs - A Purr-fectly Spooky Halloween Card

Hello everyone!

It’s Donna Idlet here sharing this cute Halloween card.  I had so much fun creating it using the adorable kitty from the NEW Cat Builder Die Set dressing him up for Halloween! I love how all the little details came together to create this fun and festive spooky scene.

I used the Cat Builder Die Set to create the cat.  I added a witch hat from the Halloween Postage Sampler.  I added the sparkly pink collar and tag using the Cheerful Bright Glitter Cardstock.  

To give the kitty even morepersonality, I added a piece of candy corn from the Candy Corn Newton Stamp Set, he cannot wait to eat it!

For the background, I the patterned paper is from the Halloween Time Paper Pad. The bright green paper covered in black bats makes the perfect frame for the darker Halloween scene.

I created the spooky sky using the NND Clouds Stencil. Then I added the moon and stars from the Spooky Sky Die Set. The black fence was created using the NND Fence Die, which helped ground the scene and gives the kitty a fun place to sit.

To finish the scene, I added pumpkins from the Fall Friends Die Set and some flying bats from the Halloween Postage Sampler. The “Happy Halloween” sentiment also comes from the Halloween Postage Sampler.

One of my favorite parts of this card is all the dimension! I used foam tape to pop up the cat, giving it a fun 3D effect and making it really stand out from the background. I took the second photo from an angle so you can see just how much dimension the card has.

I love how this little Halloween kitty turned out. Between the bright batty background, spooky moonlit sky, pumpkins, bats, and that adorable witchy cat, this card is full of Halloween fun!
