My First Card of 2026 — and Big Plans Ahead

 Hello in 2026! 💛

I’m starting the new year with colour, energy, and a little bit of cheeky fun - exactly the vibe I want to carry into the months ahead.

My first card of the year was made entirely with Polkadoodles products, and I loved every minute of creating it. The background came to life with the Switchables Circles Triptych Stencil and Mask, blended using Distress Oxide inks in bold, happy colours. I finished it off with the Big Hugs dies, because honestly - who doesn’t need a big hug at the start of a new year?

This card is a reminder that crafting can be joyful, expressive, and a little rebellious - and that’s exactly how I want to approach my creative journey this year.

And speaking of the year ahead…
✨ I’m planning to show up much more in tutorials,
✨ share more behind‑the‑scenes content,
✨ and actively promote the beautiful products from Polkadoodles and Craft & You Design.

I’ll be guiding you through new releases, fresh collections, and all the exciting things these brands have prepared for you. And yes - live videos are coming too. I can’t wait to craft together, chat, and bring even more creativity into this space.

Wishing you a beautiful 2026 - full of inspiration, colour, and moments that make you laugh out loud.
Thank you for being here, for supporting handmade art, and for sharing this creative journey with me. I’m so excited for everything we’ll explore together.

Warm hugs,
Natalia
