Sweet November ~ Love You Forever!

There is just something so heart-melting about this sweet couple from the “Love You Forever” stamp set from Sweet November Stamps. Their gentle smiles and hand-holding moment instantly tell a story of a lifetime of love — and I couldn’t resist creating a cozy little scene around them.

To set the stage, I paired them with the “Spring Windows” stamp set to create that charming brick wall and window backdrop. I love how this set makes it so easy to build an environment that feels warm and lived-in. I added a flower box full of blooms and even a curious little kitty peeking out the window for an extra touch of personality!

For the background, I reached for my Copic Airbrush System to quickly blend in smooth color. It’s such a fast and effective way to build depth and atmosphere without overworking the paper. The soft sky tones in the window and the warm brick wall really help the sweet couple stand out as the focal point.

Everything was colored with Copic Markers, and I had so much fun adding little details like rosy cheeks, subtle shading in their clothing, and a bit of grass texture beneath the bench to ground the scene. That tiny blue bird perched nearby just finishes the card perfectly — a sweet symbol of happiness and companionship.

The sentiment says it all:

“I love you more today than yesterday, but not as much as tomorrow.”

Isn’t that just the most beautiful way to describe a lifelong love?

This card would be perfect for an anniversary, Valentine’s Day, or even just a special reminder to someone you love. Sweet November Stamps always has a way of capturing heartfelt moments so perfectly.

Hoppy Hearts Release Day – Postage Pals: Hoppy Easter

It’s release day over at Sweet November Stamps, and the Hoppy Hearts release is officially live! 🎉 Today I’m sharing a sweet and cheerful card featuring the absolutely adorable Postage Pals: Hoppy Easter stamp set.

I fell in love with this little bunny the moment I saw him — that basket of Easter eggs is just too cute to resist! I colored the image with Copic Markers, keeping the palette soft and springy to really lean into those fresh Easter vibes.

To build my card, I paired the stamped image with a mix of Catherine Pooler patterned papers and dies. I love how the postage-style frame highlights the image perfectly, while the bold gingham and floral patterns add texture and interest without overwhelming the focal point. The layered papers give the card a cozy, handmade feel and really help the bunny shine.

For the finishing touch, I added a simple sentiment that ties everything together and keeps the card playful and light — perfect for Easter, springtime, or even just sending a happy hello.

This card came together so easily, and it’s a great example of how fun patterned papers and a strong focal image can do all the heavy lifting for you. If you love cute characters, postage-style designs, and all things spring, this release is definitely one to check out!

Thanks so much for stopping by today — I hope this card brings a little hop to your step! 💕🐇

Spring Wees Birthday Magic 🌸🧚‍♀️ ~ Sweet November Stamps

Today I’m sharing a sweet and whimsical birthday card featuring the absolutely adorable Spring Wees clear stamp set from Sweet November Stamps. These little fairies are just too cute, and I had so much fun bringing them to life in a soft, dreamy spring scene.

To create the background, I used my Copic markers with an air-brushing technique, blending fresh spring greens to give the scene a gentle glow. It adds such a soft and magical feel and really helps the images pop without overpowering them.

All of the images were colored with Copic markers, keeping the palette light, cheerful, and playful—perfect for a springtime birthday card. I love how the Wees look like they’re relaxing in the grass, enjoying a peaceful afternoon surrounded by flowers and sunshine.

For the sentiment, I used a greeting from the Fairwee Happy Birthday clear stamp set. It pairs perfectly with the Spring Wees and ties the whole card together for a fun and whimsical birthday design.

This card was such a joy to make, and it’s a great reminder of how magical spring crafting can be. Thanks so much for stopping by, and I hope this card inspires you to pull out your Copics and create a little fairy magic of your own!

Have a great weekend all!

Sweet November Stamps ~ Scrappy & Sulky in Love

This card had me smiling the entire time I was creating it—and honestly, that’s exactly what the new Scrappy and Sulky Valentine digital release from Sweet November Stamps is all about.

As Amy perfectly described it, this release leans a little more tongue-in-cheek, featuring the hilarious dynamic of a grumpy cat paired with his wildly enthusiastic puppy sidekick. The three scenes—Heart Attack, Kisses, and Snuggle Time—each tell their own mini story, and I couldn’t resist showcasing more than one of them on a single card.

I designed this card like a set of postage-style panels, letting each scene shine on its own while still feeling cohesive as a whole. The puppy’s over-the-top affection paired with the cat’s less-than-impressed reactions cracks me up every time I look at it. Whether it’s surprise kisses, forced snuggles, or an explosion of love, these images are guaranteed to bring a smile to whoever receives your card.

All of the images were colored with Copic markers, keeping the focus on the expressive faces and playful body language. I added a soft glow around each scene to help them pop against the clean white background, and finished everything off with a bold purple frame for a fun Valentine-ready touch.

The simple sentiment, “love you friend!”, felt like the perfect fit—sweet, casual, and ideal for celebrating friendships (especially the kind that lovingly tolerate a little chaos).

If you’re looking for Valentine images that are cute, funny, and full of personality, the Scrappy and Sulky Valentine digital stamps are an absolute must-have. They’re perfect for friendship cards, lighthearted love notes, and anyone who appreciates humor with their hearts.
