Hello crafty friends! Spring is definitely in the air here in Western New York, and we are soaking up the sunshine and enjoying the fragrant blooms that are starting to emerge in our flower beds. We are not fans of the cold and tend to hibernate during the winter months, so it is truly invigorating to be able to spend time outdoors once again! We have a special…
Hello Friends! As you know, Kreative Kinship is a sister team and the projects we share here on this account are always the result of a collaboration of effort, input and creativity. The exception to this is when we share the cards we individually make for each other and today’s card project is one of those exceptions. When your sister, best friend and crafting partner celebrates a birthday,…

One of our favorite paper crafting techniques is die cutting. We simply find the process of cutting and gluing small pieces of paper together to create something beautiful so relaxing and enjoyable. Our card project today was created mostly with die cuts – there was very little stamping involved. We are pleased with how it turned out and hope you think so too! Focal Point: The deer was…
There is no doubt that sympathy cards are the hardest types of cards to make. Unless, of course, you need to make a pet sympathy card. Those are absolutely THE WORST! A dear friend recently lost their 15-year old furry family member. We envisioned a puppy angel for this card so we started hunting through our stash and found the perfect puppy image and a set of wings…
Happy New Year, friends! It has been a while since our last post, but we hope that your holidays were safe, happy and relaxing.

We have a soft spot for adorable critters and these peeking giraffes by Whimsy Stamps are just too cute for words! The Foliage Frame slimline die from Trinity Stamps set the lush jungle scene and the stitched alphabet die from Heffy Doodle paired well with the overall look we were going for. Focal Point: This stamp set comes with three adorable giraffe images. We stamped them onto white…
