 More cards from the Concord and 9th Winter Retreat 2026.

These cards were made with the Jan 2026 Let's Stamp Together Subscription kit from Concord and 9th. This subscription is offered by Scrapbook and Cards Today and in my opinion, is one of the best kits out there.  You can't skip, but in two years, I've only not like one or two.   The kit is now monthly, and each month features a different company.  The kit includes stamps, dies, stencil, plus two live card classes, and one more additional video.    

  Another felt stitching project!! I need to add a stick with some ribbons.  Pennant measures about 8 inches.

I crafted along with Carissa Wiley (Sprinkled with Glitter on you Tube) and made this adorable polar bear card.  The colors are from Concord and 9th (Sea Glass, Tidepool, Lakefront, Briar Rose, Carnation, Ballet Slipper) and the polar bear is from Taylored Expressions. This fun purple card is a new, winter stencil from Taylored Expressions.  Colors are also by TE (Jelly Donut, Strawberry Milkshake, Lavendar Glaze, and Lime Zest.)   

 I made these two (highly detailed!) cards as part of Concord and 9th Winter Retreat 2026.   The die set is called "In the Park" and makes a portrait accordian card.

  The idea for this gatefold card with belly band came from Kristina Werner's video using her hearts stencil.  All products are by Taylored Expressions.  (Popsicle, and Berry Smoothie.) All supplies by Taylored Expressions.  Fine line script, All Planned Out 3 dies, Full of Heart foil it, embossing folder and stencil.  Colors:  Cherry Pop, Cookie Monster, and Bubblegum.

 I like to make little gifts for my coworkers that have babies.  This sweet bear is made with the Poshta Designs Beloved Bear die- I made a cute ornament and matching card (Lawn Fawn Cute Conversation Critters).  I also knit a little beanie hat. Card details:  Welcome greeting and splatter stamp by Kristina Werner for Concord and 9th.  Cute Conversation Critters bear by Lawn Fawn.  Alphabet by Stampin' Up! And here is the gift bag.  I used an Apple bag, so I had to cover the logo on both sides.  Alphabet by Stampin' up!

 Love the roller skate (On a roll?) die set from Concord and 9th.  This skate is NC State themed!

These first two cards were made during a free Lawn Fawn virtual class.  The instructors used moles, which I don't have, so I used other animals instead. The Foursquare Background from Lawn Fawn makes card assembly a breeze!! I love using it and all my little critters. Lawn Fawn sets used:  Critter Conversation Hearts, I heart Pandas, Wild Wolves, Valentine Mice. Heart paper is from Stampin' Up! - many years ago!  

My daughter recently adopted a cute kitty!!! I borrowed a friend's cat stamps and dies and made a few cards.  Cattitude by Waffleflower.  

  Colors Used (Concord and 9th) Aqua Sky and Oceanside Greeting by Gina K Designs Snowflake stencil and embossing folder by Simon Says Stamp

  I used the Balloons palette stencil from Taylored Expressions for this easy, birthday card.  The stencil has the balloon background, and four squares that get blended at the same time, which are then cut by the long tag die as a sample or swatch.   I also used Little Critters and the Birthday Vibes Stamp Set and Die. Colors:  Cake Pop, Lollipop, Jelly Donut, and Popsicle.

A little bit of everything on these cute, thank you notes for the holidays. I made the dancing gingerbread people before the holidays using the Spellbinders dies.  I was going to save them for next year's cards, but my three grown kids still love our annual gingerbread decorating contest so I decided to use them on their thank you notes.
