    October 8, 2025 / No Comments

    Hi crafty friends! I’m Lea Lawson, the creator behind Lea Lawson Creates, where I share all things colorful, crafty, and joy-filled. I’m thrilled to be here on the Spellbinders blog today with a trio of playful holiday cards featuring the brand-new Merry Mischief collection!
