The sentiment is from the new A Gift For You Stamp Set. I used one of the Mini Tag Dies 2 to create the sentiment tag.

Happy Wednesday! La-La Land Craft's Winter 2026 Release is available for purchase and includes 12 new dies sets, 7 new stamp sets, and 3 new paper packs! There are so many awesome goodies in the store! I 'll be showcasing projects over the next month with all the new items.

Today, I have two cards to share with you. My first card features Bundle Up Clear Stamp Set which comes with two cute mice and two adorable bunnies. I used both bunnies on this card. To set the wintry background scene, I added paper from the Season Of Joy 6x6 Paper Pack. Then I used the Vintage Christmas Trees Die to add white glitter and gold foil trees. The snowdrifts are from the North Pole Sign Die.  

 

My second card includes a mouse from the Bundle Up Clear Stamp Set, along with this fabulous Santa from the Good Cheer Clear Stamp Set. I created this cozy living room scene using paper from the Christmas Mix 6x6 Paper Pad. I added trees using the Vintage Christmas Trees Die, and a string of lights from the Winter House Add-On Die. 

 

Head to the La-La Land Crafts Store to grab your favorites! They carry a wide range of products including rubber stamps, clear stamps, digital stamps, dies, stencils, and paper packs!

La-La Land Crafts STAMPtember® 2026 Exclusive Collaboration for Simon Says Stamp!

Happy Sunday Friends! I have a special post today to showcase the collaboration set La-La Land Crafts created for Simon Says Stamp STAMPtember® 2026! This adorable set called MERRIEST CHRISTMAS comes with two different Santas, along with 8 fabulous sentiments. Grab this set NOW in the Simon Says Stamp Store while supplies last! There are two options available for purchase: the stamp set with coordinating outline dies or just the stamp set by itself. Once it's gone, it's gone forever!

I created two separate cards so I could showcase each Santa. My first card features the Santa carrying presents, and also includes multiple La-La Land Crafts products which are also available for purchase in the Simon Says Stamp Store. I've included a list of products and links below. 

 

La-La Land Crafts Merriest Christmas STAMPtember Stamp and Die Set
La-La Land Crafts House Base Dies (house shape)
La-La Land Crafts Winter House Add On Dies (snowy rooftop) 
La-La Land Crafts Cottage Add On Dies (door and steps) 
La-La Land Crafts Vintage Christmas Trees Die 
La-La Land Crafts Christmas Mix 6x6 Paper Pack (house paper)
La-La Land Crafts Silent Night 6x6 Paper Pack (background night sky) 

 
My second card features the Santa ringing a bell and includes paper from La-La Land Crafts Christmas Mix 6x6 Paper Pack. I watered down some Gold Rush Lunar Paste and splattered it over the card base. Then I cut around the holly design from the decorative paper and glued it in the top corner. I used the snowdrift die from La-La Land Crafts North Pole Sign Dies under the Santa.

 

 

The exclusive STAMPtember® sets are flying off the shelves pretty quickly so if you want this set, don't wait! Grab it NOW! It's so much fun, and perfect for all your upcoming Christmas cards!  

 

Hugs,
Rosie

La-La Land Crafts Winter 2026 Release!

Happy Monday friends! If you didn't see my Instagram post on Friday, I have some exciting news to share! I am officially a designer for La-La Land Crafts. Today, we have a brand new release featuring lots of amazing winter and Christmas goodies! The La-La Land Craft's Winter 2026 Release includes 12 new dies sets, 7 new stamp sets, and 3 new paper packs. I 'll be showcasing projects over the next month with all the new items.

For my first project, I created a 3-D pop-up house using a mix of new and old dies, along with two new stamps sets: GOOD CHEER (Santa) and REAL HOOT (owls). To create the pop-up house, I used the following dies & paper pack:

Roof Hinge Large Die, Winter House Add-On Die, Gingerbread House Add-On Die (gold gumdrop border), Vintage Christmas Trees Die (used on sides of house), North Pole Sign Die (used on back of house), Christmas Mix 6x6 Paper Pack

**Released previously: House Base Die, Cottage Add-On Die

The windows are cut out so you can place a flame-less candle inside and it will glow. I can see making a bunch of these in different colors to decorate the fireplace mantle or placed on a tiered display stand for the kitchen island. So much fun!

These are the amazing ladies I'll be crafting alongside as part of the La-La Land Crafts Design Team.

I Am Roses + Conie Fong's Bauble Gnome

I'm finishing up Christmas In July, with a card for I Am Roses featuring this fantastic digital stamp from Conie Fong called Bauble Gnome. It's part of a larger bundle of digis that can be purchased HERE. Isn't he so adorable?! I printed the image on Copic Xpress It Blending Card and colored him with Copic Markers.

The large flowers are R43 red peonies, followed by S4-15 white flowers, red cherry blossoms, and tiny green roses leaves. 

Remember, we currently have a monthly challenge until August 8th on the IAR Blog. Be sure to use a minimum of 3 I Am Roses products on your card to qualify for a prize. I can't wait to see what you make!

Jaded Blossom October 2025 Release: SNEAK PEEK DAY 3

Happy Wednesday Friends! We are on Day 3 of Sneak Peeks for the Jaded Blossom October 2025 Release. You can grab the "Gotta Have It Now" BUNDLE for a discounted amount right now! All items will be available individually for purchase on Thursday at 12am EST.

This release brings you so many awesome products for Christmas! I am loving everything coming your way this month! Today, Jaded Blossom is showcasing Gnome Dies: Santas Sleigh, Christmas Tree Stencil, and the FREEBIE Offer. 

I went all out and created an outdoor scene using the new Gnome Dies: Santas Sleigh along with the Gnome Friends: Reindeer Die and Reindeer Faces Stamp Set. For the gnome, I used the hat die from the original Gnome Dies, and the puffy hat brim/pom pom from Gnome Dies: Christmas Add Ons 1. The sentiment/outline dies are from Merry Christmas Gnomie.

 

The new Christmas Tree Stencil comes with two stencils....one with trees and one with the stars. I used the stars stencil on the background paper. The trees and stars were both used on the present next to Santa. I raised the sleigh and reindeer on foam tape for extra dimension.

Conie Fong: SANTA WITH GIFT SACK SHADOWBOX CARD

Happy Tuesday friends! July is coming to an end, and I'm closing out the month with some more Christmas in July cards. For today's project, I created a Santa Shadowbox Card that fits inside a 5x7 envelope when folded flat. That adorable Santa is a digi stamp from Conie Fong called Santa with Gift Sack. Isn't he adorable?! I printed him on Xpress It Blending Card and colored him with Copics.

 

To create the shadowbox scene, I used an older stamp/die kit from Diamond Press called Christmas Shadowbox. It came with all the dies to create the shadowbox, along with stamps to decorate the inside. I just swapped out the Santa using the one from Conie. 

I hope you grab some images from Conie Fong and share your creations in the Conie Fong Art and Design Facebook Group. Conie also created a separate group to share your drawings from her YouTube Channel called DRAW WITH CONIE if you happen to give drawing a try. Head over and join the Draw With Conie Facebook Group to share your drawings. We would love to Ooooh and Aaaaah over your work!

Hugs,

Rosie
