Rolling Into Fun with the New “On the Go” Release! ~ Sweet November Stamps

Hi crafty friends! Today I’m sharing a bright and playful card featuring the brand new “On the Go” digital release from Sweet November Stamps! This new series is packed with energy and includes four fabulous bundles—bike riders, skaters, skateboarders, and scooter riders—perfect for creating action-filled scenes.


For my card, I chose the adorable “Skating Austen” and “Skating Kim” images from the skaters bundle. I just love how full of personality these two are! They were the perfect pair to bring my colorful skate park scene to life.

I wanted to create a setting that matched their fun, carefree vibe, so I designed a rainbow-inspired skate park full of bold, vibrant colors. It was such a joy to bring everything together with my Copic Markers—blending all those bright hues really helped add movement and depth to the scene.


To finish things off, I added the sentiment “Have a Chill Birthday”—because what’s cooler than cruising through a rainbow skate park with your bestie?

This card would be perfect for kids, teens, or anyone who loves a little adventure and color in their day!

Thanks so much for stopping by today! I hope this inspires you to check out the new “On the Go” release and create some action-packed scenes of your own.

Happy crafting! 🎨✨

🐰 Hoppy Easter Postage Pals Card 🐣 ~ Sweet November Stamps

With Easter just two weeks away, I couldn’t resist creating something extra sweet and full of springtime charm! Today’s card features the adorable “Postage Pals: Hoppy Easter” stamp set from Sweet November Stamps, and I had so much fun bringing these little critters to life.


I decided to lean into a fun postage collage design, creating a grid of mini “stamps” filled with bunnies, chicks, duckies, and even a cute little egg friend. Each scene feels like its own tiny story, which makes this card so playful and engaging!

To really sell that postage look, I paired the images with the fabulous “Year Round Post Marks” stamp set. The subtle stamped details layered over the background give it that authentic, vintage mail feel—such a perfect complement to the postage theme.


For the background, I went with a chalkboard-style look, using darker tones to really make the Copic-colored images pop. I love how the bright yellows, soft pastels, and fresh spring colors stand out against the deep background—it adds such a fun contrast and really highlights each little character.

All of the images were colored using Copic Markers, and I kept the palette light and cheerful to match the Easter vibe. Those tiny pops of color in the eggs and bows just make me smile!

To finish everything off, I added a simple sentiment—“Hippity Hoppity Happy Easter”—right across the center to tie all the little scenes together.

This card was such a joy to create, and I love how it feels like a collection of tiny Easter moments all in one place. Perfect for sending a little handmade happiness as we hop closer to the holiday!

Hoppity Hoppity Happy Easter with Lila 🐣 ~ Sweet November Stamps

Today I’m sharing a cheerful Easter card featuring the adorable Lila” from Sweet November Stamps. I couldn’t resist coloring her up with her sweet little basket full of Easter eggs as she enjoys a sunny Spring day!


To build my scene, I paired Lila with the cute little duckies from the Postage Pals: Hoppy Easter” stamp set. They look like they’re happily waddling along beside her on their own little Easter adventure. The sentiment Hippity Hoppity Happy Easter” was the perfect finishing touch for this bright and playful card.


This card was created for Craft Roulette Episode #309, and it was so fun incorporating all the challenge parameters:

  • Project: Mini Slimline Card

  • Colors: Jolly – I used bright, happy spring colors throughout the scene.

  • Element: In the KitchenLila’s basket of decorated Easter eggs felt like the perfect nod to all the egg decorating that happens in the kitchen around Easter time!

  • Random: Mask(s)/Masking – I used masking to build the little ducky scene around Lila and create a seamless background.

I colored all of the images with Copic Markers and finished the scene with a bright grassy field and soft sky background to really make the characters pop. I love how the playful ducks bring extra movement and charm to the scene.

This sweet little Easter card is ready to hop its way into someone’s mailbox and bring a smile!

Thanks so much for stopping by today!

Catherine Pooler Designs – A Purr-fect Thank You


Today I’m sharing a fun and colorful thank you card featuring some fabulous products from Catherine Pooler Designs!

For the background, I used the Flirty Blooms Layered Stencil, but instead of layering the entire stencil design, I chose to use just one layer to create this playful pattern. I blended Sweetheart and Mardi Gras inks to form the soft pink and teal background, which gives the card such a bright and happy feel.


To add a little extra sparkle and interest, I splattered Pixie Dust Shimmer over the Sweetheart ink areas only. The shimmer catches the light beautifully and gives the background a subtle magical touch.

Next, I stamped and added the three adorable cats using Mardi Gras ink. I love how their playful poses add personality and movement to the card while keeping the overall design light and fun.

For the sentiment, I used a greeting from the “3 Times the Thanks Sentiment” stamp set. I stamped it onto one of the labels from the “More Sentiment Banner Dies,” which creates the perfect focal point across the card.

This card came together with a simple design, a bit of sparkle, and a trio of sweet kitties to say thanks in the cutest way possible!

You can find all of these supplies over in the Catherine Pooler Designs shop.

Have a great rest of the week!
