Today’s card is a sympathy or encouragement card – and it spotlights the new Frosted Pinecones stamp set – with its wonderful masks! I pulled sentiments from the new Thinking of You stamp set – and put it all on Wood Grain Wonders DSP! Take a look-see:

Happy Happy Friday! Whoo-hoo! Hoping your week has been a good one and that you’re looking forward to a fun weekend. I’m not seeing anything in particular on our “busy” social calendar so…it’s a play-it-by-ear weekend for us! 🙂

It’s a play on an accordion card – and I fancied it up with new goodies from the Alpine Winter suite -coming on 1 Sept in the Sept 2026 Online Exclusives! It’s got lots of space to show off Alpine Winter DSP and fun die cuts and sentiments from the coordinating Winter Adventures bundle. Take a look-see:
