Just Add Sprinkles - Baker Bear



Hello and Happy Release Day!  Today I have a card on the hop that is featuring a few of the new products from the current Trinity Stamps Release.  

I fell in love with these little bears thought it would be fun to put the little bear on a wobbler to tie in the "sprinkles" theme.

For the background on this card, I used the new Sprinkles Letterpress plate with purple glimmer foil on a lilac-colored cardstock.  Once it was foiled, I cut it down to 5.25" x 4.0" and glued a piece of light brown woodgrain cardstock cut to .75" x 5.25" to the bottom.  Before I glued the woodgrain piece to the bottom of the card, I dusted up the edges of the lilac cardstock with a little Villainous Potion Distress Oxide Ink and dusted the woodgrain cardstock with Vintage Photo Oxide Ink. Next, I glued it piece of white cardstock that I cut with the Dainty Scallops Rectangles (A2) Die Set.  I glued those two pieces to a piece of pink cardstock cut to 5.5" x 4.25". 

My little friend and cupcake were stamped and cut from the new Just Add Sprinkles Stamp Set and Coordinating Die Set.

I used the following Copic markers to color them in:

  • E50, E21, E23, E25, E29
  • R11, R20
  • RV21, RV04
  • B0000, B000
  • V04, V06, V17
  • Y02, Y08, Y19

For the sentiment on the outside of my card, I used the new Simply Sentimental: Sprinkles Stamp Set and Coordinating Die set.  For the inside sentiment, I used the sentiment that came with the stamps set.

To put this card together, I popped up the cupcake on foam dots and added a wobbler to the back of my little bear.  The stamp set also has some tiny sprinkles to color in and die cut, so I added a few to the floor around my friend and his cupcake.  Such a messy little fellow!

This is such a sweet little set and while I had it out on my worksurface, I made another card that I will share at a future date!

Fro-Yo Friends Shaker Card




Hello and happy June!  Today I have a card that I created with some of the new goodies from Trinity Stamps.  This is such a fun release!  For the first card that I made with this release, I used the Fro-Yo Friend Die Set and the coordinating Sentiments Fro-Yo Die Set and Greetings Fro-Yo Cards

The first thing I thought of when I saw the die to cut out the dessert cup cover was that it would make a great shaker card.  

I have a process video up on my YouTube channel rather than write a lengthy blog.  You can find it here -

You card find all these goodies at the Trinity Stamps Online Store

The products that I used for this card are:

Flutterbys and Blooms


Hello!  Today I have a card that I created with the new July Crafty Crew Kit by Crafty Stamp Co.  This is such a sweet little set of "flutterbys" and flowers.  While this kit has some really great patterned paper, I decided to use the included stencil to ink blend my own background.

A new thing in the kit is a Crafty Color Recipe, which lists suggested Copic Marker combinations.  I really like this idea because it is not only helpful for the newer maker, but there are times that I just want to color and I can just follow the color blends.

For the background, I used the Daisy Stencil with Distress Oxide Inks to ink two different pieces of white cardstock.  I then used an oval die to cut an opening so I could swap out the different colors.

The Copic Markers used are:

  • E50, E51, E53, R20 - butterfly body
  • BG11, BG13, BG15 - aqua wings
  • RV00, RV10, RV13 - pink wings
  • BV00, BV02 - lavender wings
  • Y11, Y15 - yellow wings
  • YG17, G21 - stems and leaves
  • * the same color combinations were used for the flowers
I have a process video up on my YouTube channel if you would like follow along.  I have the link down below.

This colorful card would be perfect for a number of different occasions.

Thanks for stopping by and I hope you have an amazing day!

Wings and Wishes by Crafty Stamp Co.


 Hello!  Oh, my goodness....look at all the vibrant colors on this card!  I tend to be drawn to very bright colors, so this card definitely shows that!  

I created this card with the new Wings and Wishes Stamp Set that is only available in the July 2026 Crafty Crew Kit by Crafty Stamp Co.  

I used the patterned paper that is included in the kit along with the new Triple Flutterby Dies, which are additional to the kit, but available for purchase outside the ordering window for the kit.

I used Copic Markers to color in my little Meadow in the following colors:

  • E000, E00, E11, R20 - skin
  • Y11, Y21, Y23 - hair
  • BG11, BG13, BG15 - skirt bottom
  • RV10, RV00, RV13 - skirt top
  • RV21, RV13, RV14 - wing border
  • BV00, BV02, BV04 - violet
  • Y32, YR31 - orange

I didn't want to clutter the front of the card with a sentiment, so I put it on the inside of the card.  I did use one that is included with the set.

I have a process video up on my YouTube channel and will link it below if you would like to follow along.

I just am in love with the card and all it's beautiful colors! 

Thank you so much for stopping by and I hope your day is magical!
