Love the ink blended clouds behind our little witch on Michele’s card, and that offset sentiment. Spooky cute!
Debra created such a fun card! Love the ink blended background with the leaf framing our little witch.
Love the fun and spooky scene on Sandra’s card, and her gorgeous colouring of our little Lunettes Witchy!
Our Lunettes Christmas Girl looks so sweet and hopeful on this beautiful card by Delphine!
Love this adorable scene shaker card Jenny created! She fussy cut the mice decorating the tree stamp, and I love the results! So cute.
This stamp is so cute, and great for all sorts of occasions! Love how Ginger coloured it with a vintage look on this cute kraft card!
Steph used both stamps from the Lunettes Christmas Girl stamp set on this fab card! Just look at that detailed fussy cutting – amazing!
Sandie created this gorgeous Halloween treat bag! Love how she used the adorable ghosties and star from our Spooky Cute Banner stamp!

I’m happy to say that NEW RELEASE orders are quickly making their way out of the door and heading towards your craft desks! So lets get cracking with more inspiration to get you ready for their arrival!
For today I went with the adorable Little Witch & Her Pals. I’m obsessed with Amy Glatiotis‘ sweet little ghosties on these new stamps. They are the absolute epitome of too cute to spook.

That’s it for today! I’ll catch you on Wednesday with another card and video.

Hello!
It’s time for another Scenic Saturday card and of course I just had to ink up one of the fabulous new Holiday release stamps that hit the virtual shelves yesterday. Four fantastic Oddballs were added to the line-up and I chose Oddball Witchy Sistah 3 for my card today. And because I always enjoy a good stamp mash-up between my old and new stamps, I also brought the cute pumpkins from the Squishy Owl stamp in to flesh out this spooky Halloween scene.
I chose to ink up Oddball Witchy Sistah 3 and stamp her in the center of the card, then masked her off. This left room for me to flank her on either side with the big jacks that were left behind once I wiped the ink away from the Squishy Owl in the middle. With her adoring pumpkins in place, I thought it would be fun to play up the whole pumpkin theme and color her using the same pumpkin inspired palette so she would look like the Queen of Jack o’lanterns. Thus she got the long auburn hair and smoky green eye shadow that coordinates with her gourd-geous gown… LOL! With the coloring of the characters and ground complete, I masked them all off again and used a moon mask with the Copic airbrush system to add the dark night sky and full moon shining down like a spotlight on them all. The sentiment is from the Frightful and Delightful Sentiment set and it really made me laugh when paired with the droll stare of this Oddball beauty. Finally, I sketched in some magical sparkles floating around as well as a trio of bats flying through the air for some finishing touches that add a lot to this rather simple night background. 🙂
Stay crafty my friends!

On to Bellarific Friday for your regularly scheduled inspiration fix! This week the Babes were challenged to choose and follow one of Sandiebella’s Thursday tutorials or another tutorial from the blog.
Jenny followed Sandie’s TOWER CARD TUTORIAL to make this gorgeous Christmas card featuring one of our new release stamps! Love that this fancy fold makes such a WOW card!
Debra created these wonderful cupcake toppers using Sandie’s CUPCAKE TOPPERS TUTORIAL.
Michele created this gorgeous card following one of my tutorials on masking, which you can find HERE.
Steph created this spooktacular halloween card following Sandie’s SHAKER CARD TUTORIAL.
It has been a while since I made one, and I always enjoy them, so I decided to follow Sandie’s BOX CARD TUTORIAL to create a card using one of the new release stamps!

It’s time! The new Holiday 2024 release is now live on the website, and available to order. We’re so excited to see these stamps fly out to new creative homes, and even more excited to see what you all do with them.
Lots of inspiration here on the blog today. You can check out our new ODDBALLS – which previewed first thing this morning HERE. There will also be a Bellariffic Friday post later today, with more fun from the Babes (and a chance to win a $25 gift card).
Let’s take a look at all of the new release! For a detailed look at all of the stamps, you can visit the sneak peek posts, here are the links for those:
Holiday 2024 Release Sneak Peeks Day 1
Holiday 2024 Release Sneak Peeks Day 2
Holiday 2024 Release Sneak Peeks Day 3
You can find all of the new stamps in our WHAT’S NEW SECTION.
That’s everything from the new release! We didn’t release any new sentiment sets this time, so we could fit more images in, so here’s a selection of our sets that I think would work well with all of the new stamps! You can see many of them in our wonderful DT samples.
Here’s a look at all of the Copic videos I have uploaded so far for the release. I will be adding these to the product pages on the website, or you can of course find them all on my YouTube channel as I post them! If you enjoy watching please do like the videos and subscribe over on my YouTube channel.
Happy crafty shopping, and most importantly: happy stamping and crafting!
MWAH!
