    3 Creative Ways to Make Housework Fun – Cardmaking Style

    May 27, 2026 / 2 Comments

    Hey Crafty Friends! Amy Tsuruta here. Today, I’m sharing a trio of cards featuring the Shiny New Day Collection. Let’s be honest, real-life cleaning is definitely a chore, but crafting it? Sign me up, especially when using a fresh, happy color palette! Mess Happens My first card features a little cleaning scene. Of course, having such cute supplies makes any chore more tolerable. I think this design is perfect for a sorry card, whether you’re apologizing for a literal mess or just sending a note when things in life get a bit messy.

    Squeaky Clean Etched Dies Card Tutorial – Step-by-Step Scene Building Guide

    May 26, 2026 / No Comments

    Hello there, Michelle Short here to share a step-by-step tutorial with you using the Squeaky Clean Etched Dies from the Shiny New Day collection. Whilst cleaning is something a lot of us hate to do, making cards using cute die cuts is definitely something fun, and I loved putting all the die cuts together to create this scene! I kept to a minimal colour palette today – just aqua, yellow, and white, which helps the scene not look too busy. There are other dies in the set, though, so if you like more full scenes, you can do that too! DIE-CUTTING THE DIES Die cut the dies from Squeaky Clean…

    May 25, 2026 / No Comments

    Hello, crafty friends! Marie here from Marie Nicole Designs. I am sharing a trio of fun, colorful, clean and simple cards with you today featuring the Shiny New Day collection! This collection is so fun! It includes an embossing folder for you to add some textured designs to your cards, some florals that are pretty and easy to assemble, and many cleaning supplies you can cut from dies, color, and add to your cards. I chose to create one cleaning-themed card, a floral card, and a card that mixes the two. Let’s take a look! CLEAN AND SIMPLE Like I already mentioned, all these cards are a clean and simple…
