Cozy Christmas is where it's all at...

Halloween is in the house!

So let's see what the Design Team have been making this week...

Ana - Hi, crafty friends! Ana here from My Cat and Crafts with this week’s Digi Choosday project. The theme is to create a set of notelets to gift or sell—and I decided to finally make one just for me! (Okay… I made another set that’s not for me too, of course). I created this personalized notelet set to use for swap mail I’m sending to the Philippines. That’s why I chose Message Letter Fairy Winnie Daisy—the little envelope she’s holding is just perfect for all the happy mail I’ll be sending to my swapmates. I’ll be using these to write sweet notes and tuck them into my outgoing swaps.For this project, I used the pre-colored Message Letter Fairy Winnie Daisy digi stamp along with printable paper from the Rebel Pretty collection. I laid out the design using Cricut Design Space, then finished it off with florals, gauze, and a matching envelope box created with the We R Memory Keepers Punch Board. Want the full tutorial? Head over here for all the step-by-step details.

Kim S - Let the christmas card creating begin 🙂 I'm thrilled to share my latest Design Team project for this week! I've been playing with the adorable Bella Bear Christmas big Kahuna set and I created a full coordinating set with matching decorated bag and 5 unique cards. I coloured Bella as a polar bear as I really love the look for christmas. I love how versatile this Bella Bear set is! Each card has a slightly different look and sentiment, but they all share that cheerful holiday charm. From the cute little lanterns to the Santa hats and Christmas trees, this set is perfect for all your holiday crafting. My paper selections come from Gingerbread Holly pack 2 , Jolly Santa 1 & 2 papers and Theo Penguin 1,3 & 4. I added a tag that i created using ephemera from Gingerbread Cookie Flowers and Foliage set

Kaye - As the Holidays are drawing closer, it is much more meaningful to MAKE a gift to your friends and family, as every piece you make is a piece of you. In this week's challenge, I have made interactive shaker cards inside a "gift" using Honeypie Just Lovely Digital Stamp and colored her into Christmas colors. These notecards, can be sold as a set or to give them. Enjoy! Instagram: @kayeskraftivitee_

Nina - I made this cute Note set using the Family Love Elephant & Hello Elephant from the Tons of Love collection

Ana - For this week’s Digi Choosday challenge, I created a set of handmade 3x3 Christmas notelets, complete with a coordinating flip-top box - especially perfect for gifting or selling this holiday season! I used Polkadoodles Christmas Paper Patterns 2 for the background and Happy Happy Christmas from the Christmas Greetings Sentiment Printable Stamp for the sentiments. I added glitter cardstock layers, buttons, enamel dots, and finished everything with a sparkly velvet ribbon for the box. Everything was cut and assembled by hand (plus a little Cricut for the sentiments!). If you’d like to see the full step-by-step instructions and measurements, head over here!

Halloween is in the house!

So let's see what the Design Team have been making this week...

Jane– Hi again! this week I've been using the cute Freddy Fox collection along with the Latte dies – I'm liking this colour combo I think I might need to use this one again! See you next time!

Wendy J – Hello everyone I hope you are all well and enjoying Autumn – such a wonderful time of the year as the leaves change colours and start to fall! Today I have an Autumn card to share made using the fantastic Freddy Fox Collection. I chose the sweet little watering can and a couple of the little bees from the jam packed ephemera set for my main image, coloured with promarkers in warm Autumnal colours and fussy cut out. There are pre-coloured images too if you prefer. Nikky challenged us to use some washi tape in our design (I'm sure if you are like me you have drawers of the stuff LOL). I stencilled the background using the mandala stencil from the Yuletide Christmas collection and then added little torn strips of washi tape into the corners. This panel was then mounted onto a paper from the Helga Hippo collection. Have a great week – love and crafty hugs Wendy J x

Ana – Hi everyone! For this week's Digi Choosday Challenge, the theme was to use at least one of the following: ribbon, bow, string, cord, twine, or washi tape. I took it as a fun excuse to go full crafty mode and made a mixed media Traveler's Notebook – complete with hand-sewn saddle stitch binding! I used the pretty Lilac Haze Watercolour Flowers collection for both papers and digis, along with Butterfly Fairy Winnie Daisy. I incorporated ribbon, string, and washi tape into the design and layered the cover with vellum, ink sprays, Glitter Snow, and stencilling for lots of texture. The inside pages are lightly embellished – perfect for journalling or adding photos later on. This was such a satisfying mix of paper crafting and bookbinding, and it makes a lovely handmade gift or personal creative journal.

KM – Made a clean and simple bookmark using the Flower Meadow digital stamp and sentiment included in the Digi Deals bundle. I cut the base using my cutting machine then added a tassel and ribbon, and it's done!

Kathie – Hello everyone, happy Digi Choosday, it's Kathie here with super cute image DLPD 9590 – I know it was meant to be Christmas image, but it shows you how images can be so versatile. The image was coloured with the Copic Colours: W01, W02, W03, C01, C02, C03, E00, E02, E29, E31, E40, E41, E43, YR02, YR07, YR15, YR23, R02, R05, R14, R27 Black & White Gel Pens. The design papers were Autumn Fall Paper Patterns 3.

Thanks so much to the team for their GORGEOUS inspiration this week!

Kim S - It's hard to believe it's autumn time already. And paper crafting world already working on Christmas.Are you a work early Christmas card creator? Or a procrastinator like me?There's a new challenge happening over on the Digi Choosday blog. We sure hope you'll enter. Cash prizes to be won.For my design team project this week I decorated two treat bags for halloween. I coloured two of the Winnie Wednesday digis. And my paper choices are Trick or Treat papers 1

So adorable. I chose a pastel colour palette for my images which i coloured with my Copic markers. And then used them as hanging tags on the bags.If colouring isn't your cup of tea the Winnie Wednesday set also comes with coloured images; which makes it so easy to put together some fun halloween projects. Happy Halloween crafting!

Kaye - It's not Halloween when there's no treats. In this weeks' challenge, we created a gable box to place all the treats we hand out to the trick or treaters. We first printed the Halloween Trick or Treat printable papers bundle 2 on a cardstock, then we printed, colored and fussy cut the Boo Ghost Halloween Gnome Digistamp to add cuteness to this SPOOKtacular box.

Ana - Hi crafty friends! I’m Ana from My Cat and Crafts, and I’m so happy you’re here!Today I’m sharing a fun little Halloween project using some adorable goodies from Polkadoodles! I created a Halloween Treat Box with a card-style cover - perfect for gifting small sweets or spooky surprises this October. I used the Cute Little Witch digital stamp, cute pattern papers from Boo Halloween, and a sentiment from the Halloween Trick or Treat Printable Greetings Set. It’s such a fun way to mix paper crafting and digital designs - and I added touches of glitter, buttons, and a cute tassel drawer handle! I’d love for you to follow my crafty adventures over on Instagram - @my.cat.and.crafts and Facebook at My Cat and Crafts. Come say hi!

Nina - Trick or Treat? These two Halloween boxes are just perfect for handing out sweet little goodies in a spooky style! I used the Stripes and Harlequin digi paper from the °• Halloween Trick or Treat •° set — perfect for that eerie Halloween vibe. The boxes are decorated with the gorgeous Wednesday girls from °• Winnie Wednesday Pumpkin •° and °• Winnie Wednesday Bat Dog •°. Styled in black, grey, and white, with bold orange pumpkins and a cute little bat dog.The sentiments come from the °• Halloween Trick or Treat Greetings •° set. These spooky boxes are ideal for gifting treats in a creative and fun way — just in time for Halloween! What would you fill them with?
