Love-Struck Cupid

Hello, my pawsome friends, it's my day to post on the Jaded Blossom Blog and I have a handsome love-struck cupid to share with you!  I just love this card more and more every time I look at it!




I started out this card with using the Card Mat Dies to cut out this fun pattern paper and added a large Heart from the Heart Dies 2 and also ran it through the card mat die.  I used the Gnome Dies and Gnome Dies: Valentine Add Ons to make this handsome cupid and then manipulated the sentiment from the Gnome Kisses stamp set to fit inside the heart beside him.  To finish off the card I added a few gemstones for embellishment and some red glitter glue to the heart of his arrow.

Jaded Blossom February 2026 Monthly Challenge

Theme: Use a Stencil


    It's the first Sunday of the month which means it's time for a new monthly challenge at Jaded Blossom and I have a fun set of valentines to share with you!  I had so much fun making the boy valentine that I decided to make a girl one to use up the other half of the XOXO Stencil.



For the Boy Valentine, I inked the XOXO Stencil in gray and the Lip Stencil in red with a transparent gloss texture paste on top and cut them both out with the Card Mat Dies.  I then cut them at an angle and used one half of each and then added a strip of black glitter cardstock cut with the Border Dies over where they met and matted it all onto black glitter cardstock cut 1/8in larger.  I cut out a Stitched Arch from vellum and added "be my valentine" from the Kisses for Sale stamp set at the bottom.  I assembled the Gnome and gave him a I💗U sign from the Gnome Dies: Sweethearts Add Ons.  

For the Girl Gnome I used the other half of the XOXO Stencil cut from the card mat dies I had and just inked up a new Lip Stencil in pink for the top half.  The rest of the card was built just like the boy version.

Jaded Blossom January 2026 Release Day 2

 Hello Crafty Friends! It's Day 2 of Jaded Blossom's January 2026 Release and this one is all about PIZZA!!!!!  For today's Sneak Peek we are featuring the NEW Pizza Box Die and Hot and Fresh Pizza stamp set, and I have a fun wobbly pizza with some fresh dough to share with you!



The NEW Pizza Box Die makes the cutest box to give your pizza loving gnomies some fresh dough!  I used the New Hot and Fresh Pizza stamp set and cut it out with the Stitched Square Dies and placed it on top of the layering mat that is included with the pizza box die.  I then stamped the coordinating pizza slice and embossed it with clear embossing powder, colored it in with Copic markers, popped it up with some thin foam squares.




For the inside of the box, I placed down some aluminum foil and attached my homemade pizza to an action wobbler!  For the pizza I used the Stitched Circle Dies: the crust is the full circle, and the sauce and cheese were made by cutting out the same size circle and I just hand drew a wonky line on the back and fussy cut it out!  I added a little ink to all the edges for some added interest and used the NEW Gnome Dies: Pizza Add Ons for all my toppings!  The Pizza Box Die also comes with an insert with tabs you can add a gift card to, so I used that and made the slits a little longer with an exacto knife to hold some cash and attached it to the top!

Jaded Blossom January 2026 Monthly Challenge

Jaded Blossom January 2026 Monthly Challenge

Theme: Anything Goes


    It's the first Sunday of the month which means it's time for a new monthly challenge at Jaded Blossom and the theme for January is Anything Goes and I have a fun football themed 40th birthday card I made for a lady that loves the Saints to share for inspiration!



 
For this female friendly football card, I used the Card Mat Dies and cut out some yard line paper and made sure to highlight the 40-yard line and matted it on black cardstock cut 1/8in larger.  I cut out the football from the Sport Dies and the helmet from the Gnome Dies: Sport Add Ons 1 and attached them to the bottom.  The helmet is made to go on a gnome so I just hand cut a piece of the white shimmer cardstock to fill in the back and popped up the helmet on top of it with various foam squares and strips, so it looked like a complete helmet.





To finish it off I added a large 40 cut from the Alphabet Dies and stamped "GAME TIME" from the Eat-Sleep-Football stamp set on one of the banners from the Mini Tag Dies 3 and then added a few star embellishments.  Then on the inside I used the same stamp set for the "Score It's Your Birthday" sentiment and the stamp set Root for the Gnome Team to add "Touchdown" to a scrap piece of the paper I used on the front to the bottom.  Lastly, I cut out the little football and pom-pom from the Gnome Dies: Sport Add Ons 1.








Paper: Neenah Classic Crest Solar White 110lb Cardstock, Sizzix cardstock, TH sparkle kraft-stock, white shimmer cardstock, black glossy cardstock, Bella BLVD Football - Game Time 12x12
Embellishments: Doodlebug Design Shape Sprinkles - october sky and midnight magic
Ink:  SSS - versafine clair nocturne
Tools:  TH Sizzix Sidekick, TH Sizzix Big Shot Switch Plus, Bearly Art Glue, reverse tweezers, scrapbook.com pro pick tool and mint tape, TH guillotine comfort paper trimmer, MISTI (and Mini), foam squares and strips, Gnome Glue Holder from Whimsical Wishes
