Creative Crew 2025 - January

It's posting day for the Creative Crew. What exactly is the Creative Crew? We are a group of 7 card-making friends from various US locations who have a fun monthly creative adventure with a secretive twist. 

One of the group's members hosts each month. As host, she chooses a theme and then sends each of the group members a theme-appropriate image and some designer paper. The host can also include a sentiment and/or special item if she chooses to do so. The group members all receive the same items, but there is to be no conversation about what was received or the cards we're making. Then, on the 15th of the month, we all reveal our cards.

It's always fun to see how each person uses the image/papers.  

This month it was Darlene's turn to host. She chose the theme...

You Are So Loved

Darlene sent us the following items:

Images from the Gina K Designs You Are So Loved stamp set, including some additional/optional images (NOTE - you'll see some of them on tomorrow's card here on my blog).

An embossed panel using "Cross My Heart" embossing folder by Spellbinders and Cherry Pop card stock by Taylored Expressions

A panel of Holographic card stock by Pink & Main

A heart panel made with Simon Hurley's Bee Sting Lunar Paste applies with a heart stencil by Gina K

THANK YOU, Darlene!
