There are lots sweet pets, textures and Simple Joys in this Waffle Flower Simple Joy release and it is a cozy one!

First up, we have a super cozy card featuring the new Cozy Spot Bundle— so cozy! This is another card I just want to hang out in 😊.

This also includes the new Subsentiments Cozy Diecut. Be sure to check out the details for the gift of this release (Cozy Spot Pets Die), because this sweet pup is part of it! πŸ™‚

Next up, Simple Joy! I keep saying I could live in this card too and I could! πŸ™‚

The background is created with the new Happy Circles Β die. These panel dies are always my go-to products to create a simple background without distracting from the main focus.

This next card features just the Cozy Icons Die, which I think is so perfect to send a plant lover! πŸ™‚

The sentiment on this next card and a few others is from the Simple Joy Sentiments Combo. I also used a new product that coordinates perfectly with all the Postage Collage products: Postage Collage Frames Die. Gah! So good!

The little kitty on the books napping–too cute! Such a clean and simple card–delightful! 😊

And now, let’s enjoy some Happy Circles Die-n-stencil! Some of these cards I used just the panel and another the stencil too–that’s the fun! You can go either way to add some super pop, as the major design element, or a simple backdrop. πŸ™‚

I also used the Nesting Frames Die on this card below–I often use this for so many cards!

A great sentiment to send for many occasions!!

Of course, what would a WF release be without a new Postage Collage addition? This is the new Postage Collage Meow and Postage Collage Woof.Β . The cats include the new Postage Collage Frames Die.

Always a fave Quilting Texture Die.

The new Postage Collage Woof is perfect for all the dog lovers!Β The background is created with the new Happy Leaves Texture Die.

The sentiment on these next two cards is the new Old Friend Sentiments. This card below is also created with the new Happy Chevrons–there is a die cut and a coordinating stencil! I thought it would be fun with these vintage feel colors. πŸ™‚

This background was created with the Happy Leaves Panel Die & the Happy Leaves Texture Die.

I die cut both of these frames out with the previously released Fringe Frame Dies. (And again, the new Old Friend Sentiments–in rainbow!)

Be sure to check out all the details on the Waffle Flower site.

First up, we have theΒ  Cool Cat Die-n-stencil with the Snowy Hills Die & Stencil. How cute is this cool cat hitting the slopes?!

The little snowflakes are from the Snowflake Background Die.

The sentiment I used on this card below (and several others) is from the Pawder Day Sentiments Stamp Set. Speaking of Pawder Day, we have the Cool Pup Die-n-stencil for the dog lovers too!

The background is easy to create with the combo of the Snowy Hills Die & Stencil.

Next up, again, I used the Snowy Hills Die & Stencil along with the Snowcapped Pinecone.

These pinecones come together 1-2-3 with the stamps and dies. Of course, I threw in a background I made with one of my favorites, the Quilting Texture Die.

The above sentiment is from the Grateful Heart Sentiments set.

Next up, again, I used the Snowcapped Pinecone along with it’s stencil and dies. I added a lot of pizzazz to the is one, which of course looks better in person. I used Gold ink and some glitter on the snow. Snow fun!

The MIss You sentiment is the Miss You Word Die is the November special, so be sure to check out all those details on the Waffle Flower site.

This next card is a snowy delight: Snowy Hills Add-on Die! I love these little houses and clouds!

Houses on the snowy hillside ☺

Next up, we have the super cuties from two different sets: Snow Angel Pup Duo Die-n-stencil and the Snow Angel Cat Duo Die-n-stencil.

Aren’t they the cutest, frolicking in the snow?!! Sentiments are called Snow Angel Sentiments Stamp Set.

I couldn’t just make one, so I had to make two! Don’t forget to grab their winter wear too! I didn’t add it to these cards, but that set is called Postage Collage Winter Add-ons Die.

These Snow Angel Pup Duo Die-n-stencil might be my fave! πŸ™‚ Eeeeep!

And what would winter be without a snowman and snowlady! This is the Snow Fun Die! The birds might be my favorite part though. 🀩

Again, these are adorned with the Postage Collage Winter Add-ons Die.

For this fun and furry card, I used the new Postage Collage Dog Silhouettes Die, Postage Collage DieΒ and theΒ  Snowflake Background Die. Their hats are a trip!

Their little hats come from the Postage Collage Winter Add-ons Die.

Lastly, but certainly not least–we have these cute felines! Postage Collage Cat Silhouettes Stamp Set. I used the Postage Collage Blocks StencilΒ to create the background for them.

Friends Fur-Ever!! πŸ™‚

Lots of fun for the cat and dog lovers this month, and even if you’re not in that category, we can all enjoy their snowy cuteness! πŸ™‚

Taylored Expressions: Raining Cats & Dogs KitS! Plural!

Today is the last Tuesday of the month and that means it’s the new kit day over at Taylored Expressions! There’s a little something for everyone–because it’s Raining Cats & Dogs!

First up, is the Dog kit–it’s called Dog Gone Cute! These little puppies came to play! My favorites are the two on the far left–I can’t help but laugh at those guys.

I thought it would be fun to use a couple tennis balls from the Little Bits-Tennis set. I love the juxtaposition of scales between the balls and the pups–too cute!

The Mini Slim size works perfectly for this design set up. Too cute!

Next up, let’s get out the yarn balls with the Meow & Forever Kit! These cats are adorable and the little additions from the Little Bits-Pet Accessories –yarn, mice, etc. are a delight to add to the card for extra little bits–check out that little party hat! I have to remember it’s in this set for sure.

I used the cutting plate (Meow & Furever Cutting Plate Die)Β to emboss these little cuties vs. diecutting them. It always reminds me of puffy stickers! It’s fun to mix things up! πŸ™‚

Sending Paw-sitive Vibes–love it! Also, it should be noted, I realized I only used three ink pads! It’s a first! πŸ™‚
