PSC#144 – Warm & Cozy
Welcome to the Poppystamps Challenge! We’re so happy you’ve stopped by, and we sure hope you’ll join us! On the first of the month, we announce a new Poppystamps Challenge with a central theme. The design team will provide samples for inspiration, and you can play along through the end of the month for your chance to win.
The winner of our blog badge for the Poppystamps Challenge #143 Make It Magic is Pat J.
The lucky winner of the draw (chosen by random number generator) for the monthly prize is Vicki! Please contact me (Jeanne) at poppychallenge@gmail.com to claim your prize.
Want to play? The rules are simple – just create a project following the theme, use at least one Poppystamps image or die, and link it up here. The design we love best will receive our winner badge to proudly display on their blog, and one lucky random winner will receive a prize. You don’t have to have a blog to play. You can link to any online gallery. In fairness to other players, we reserve the right to remove entries that do not use at least one Poppystamps image. We ask that you link a maximum of 3 entries to each challenge. You are welcome to link your design to other challenges. Grab our badge to post on your blog post or sidebar!
PSC#141 Warm & Cozy! Fall is in the air and with that comes colorful foliage, shorter days and chilly nights. It’s the time of year we express our gratitude for the blessings of family and friends. This month we want to see how you embrace sweater weather – fall! You can use gorgeous fall colors, maybe share your favorite cuppa, or how about a Thanksgiving or Thank You for someone special? The challenge is not limited to cards – we’d love to see your page layouts, home decor, tags, and mixed media. It’s your choice, just be sure to use at least one Poppystamps image (stamp or die) on your project!
Meet our November Guest Carrianne Banul introduced by design team member Meghan.
What I love most about Carrianne’s cardmaking style is how effortlessly she balances playful creativity with polished design. Her cards are always bright, cheerful, and full of personality, with vibrant coloring, clever die-cut details, and layouts that naturally draw your eye to the focal point. Whether she’s creating whimsical scenes, elegant florals, or clean and simple designs, every project feels fresh and thoughtfully crafted.

Hi, I’m Carrianne! I’m a cardmaker who loves creating colorful, cheerful designs and adding a little bit of fun to every project. I especially enjoy coloring with Copic markers and creating everything from clean and simple cards to detailed scenes full of personality. Crafting is my happy place, and I love sharing my creativity and inspiration with others.
Need a little inspiration? Here are some samples from our design team. Want a closer look? No worries.. we’ll be featuring these projects on Wednesdays throughout the month, so you can see how each project was created.
