Concord & 9th | January 2026 Guest Designer | Assorted Frames Dies


Today is my last guest post for Concord & 9th's January Release and I'm featuring the Assorted Frames Dies. The four frames in this set have different shapes and can be used individually or in combination. I love the versatility of these frames! For this card, I cut two of the largest frame from Lakefront and Brickyard cardstock.

I used the frame dies to showcase the gorgeous Peaceful Dove Bundle. I cut the dove layers from (top to bottom) White Glitter Paper, vellum and White cardstock. The sprigs, pine needles and berries were cut from Aster, Ballet Slipper and Brickyard (respectively).


The sentiment was stamped with Black ink on Lakefront cardstock. To finish, I cut the card base from Eggplant cardstock using the Chandelier Card Front Die. I used liquid glue to attach the layered frames and popped the dove on the card base with foam squares.


I hope you enjoyed today's project and all six of my cards for Concord & 9th's September Holiday Release. If you missed my previous posts, you can find those here:

Concord & 9th | September 2026 Guest Designer | Chandelier Card Front Die


Hello, crafty friends! I'm back with another guest post for Concord & 9th's September Release and I'm featuring the Chandelier Card Front Die which is the most versatile card front die I've ever created with! I used it on half of my cards for this release and could've easily used it on all of them.

I wanted to use the ornaments from the Holiday Trimmings Dies again and cut a bunch from Sweet Pea and Poppy (accented with Clementine), and Oceanside and Evergreen (accented with Glitter Gold). I popped these up on the Chandelier Card Front Die panel cut from Pebble cardstock.


I popped each of the ornaments on to the card base with foam squares and added a Gold Enamel Dot to the top of each ornament. Using Black ink and Pebble cardstock, I stamped and die cut the sentiment from the Tidings of Joy Bundle and attached that to the card with a Glitter Gold shadow layer.

I hope you enjoyed today's project. If you missed my previous posts, you can find those here:

Concord & 9th | September 2026 Guest Designer | Into the Woods Bundle


Hello again! Today's project for Concord & 9th's September Release features the Into the Woods Bundle which builds the cutest pop-up card that fits into an A2 envelope. I love that little cozy cabin and all the different trees! Any snowy scenes made with this bundle will look amazing no matter how you use it.

Today's card features the colours Ballet Slipper, Sweet Pea, Poppy, Bluebell, Capri, Sand, Hazelnut,  Espresso and White Glitter cardstock. It's the same colour palette as my Holiday Home card but without Stardust and Clover. I love the variety of trees and prints you can stamp on the die cuts. The hills are the perfect size for mixing and matching layers, too.


This was my first time using the White Pigment Ink and I love it! I layered three layers of white and clear sparkle embossing powder to give the sentiment lots of dimension and shine. I also stamped five different patterns on the trees and cabin using Ballet Slipper, Sweet Pea and Sand Ink Pads.

I hope you enjoyed today's project. If you missed my previous posts, you can find those here:
