The Wild & Sweet Stamp Set is Sweet
The Wild & Sweet stamp set is indeed a sweet set! It had me at the koala bear, and pandas are popular, but … a raccoon? They seem to have a reputation as pesky critters, although I’ve never personally had any run-ins with them. So, unless you have a friend named Rocky, what are you going to do with a raccoon card? And then I colored one for a sample card, and he has such a sweet face!
I’ve made several cards with this new stamp set, and I’ve used Stampin’ Blends, Watercolor Pencils, and watercolor with inks. They all work great, so if you like to color, you may need the Wild & Sweet stamp set.

Quiet Meadow Meets Glimmer Paper
The Quiet Meadow stamp set and Meadow dies are perfectly suited to vintage styled cards and to collage techniques. That’s the reason I bought it! But what happens when it meets Glimmer Paper? This.
These cards just sort of happened. The 2022-2024 In Color Glimmer Paper is ombre (and beautiful, said the girl who doesn’t normally use a lot of glimmer and glitter). I wanted to see what it looked like as a die cut and I had this stamp set and dies out. Since the flowers are long-stemmed, I thought they would show the ombre effects well. So I cut a few. Then I started playing with them. Then I made this card.
