Hi there!
It’s Day 17 of LucieG’s Christmas in July!
The star of today’s card is the fabulous Pointed Evergreens die by Simon Says Stamp – this is a large but delicate die and looks so fabulous when cut from glitter card.
I adhered it to some of my Basic Grey patterned paper mountain and added a sentiment from a Sizzix set.

Hi there!
It’s Day 12 of LucieG’s Christmas in July and I used another new die that arrived yesterday – the eye-catching Birch Press Design Scandi ornament.
I paired it with a pine branch from The Greetery and a Mama Elephant sentiment from their Puffy Holiday Greetings set.
The background panel is embossed with a Simon Says Stamp embossing folder that I think is retired now.
Thanks for stopping by!

Hi there!
It’s Day 11 of LucieG’s Christmas in July and today a wonderful crafty order landed on my doormat – I always love it when the Memory Box family has a new release and this month all three brands have some fabulous Christmas in July dies.
I used two new Poppystamps sets (Trimmed Trees and Merry Christmas Fluffy Script), cut from my ombre/patterned mirror card and adhered to a background panel that I embossed with the Simon Says Stamp Star Lattice embossing folder.
Thanks for stopping by!

Hi there!
I can’t quite believe that Easter is next weekend – it’s snuck up on me a bit! So I hereby declare today the first day of LucieG’s Egg Week 2026!
For my CAS card today, I used an egg from a Simon Says Stamp embossing folder and my favourite Speckled Egg distress ink. I also pulled out a piece of older vellum with glittery flecks, but that’s quite difficult to photograph!
Thanks for stopping by!

Happy Friyay!
Welcome to Day 5 of Heart Week 2026!
Today’s card has been a year in the making! I bought the cute Taylored Expressions egg cup dies last February with a view to making a cup full of hearts card but then something must’ve happened because I never got round to creating it! So today was the day. I dug into my beloved Basic Grey patterned paper mountain, pulled out some super old Simon Says Stamp/Kelly Purkey heart dies and got crafty!
I then spent far too long looking for a stamp set with the perfect sentiment. I know I found in the depths of my craft room at some point last year because I was annoyed I didn’t have it to hand for Heart Week 2025. Well guess what, it’s AWOL for Heart Week 2026 too! Great! So I chose a stamp from a trusty Mama ELephant set instead. When I find it again, I’m going to keep it on my craft table until Heart Week 2027!!
To complete my card I adhered my image to a background I embossed with Poppystamps piercing dies

HI there!
I have to admit that this is totally not the card I had in mind for today but my evening was hijacked by a broken computer – the second time in less than a month and I’ve only had it for five weeks.
This started as a single Pinkfresh Studio washi die but quickly escalated! I ended up using another of Simply Graphic’s versatile notebook dies plus a bargain Simon Says Stamp embossing folder called Floral Festoon that I picked up from their sale section last year. The sentiment is also by Pinkfresh.
Thanks for stopping by!
