Treat Your Shelf with the First Cardmaking Kit of the Year!
Hi, crafty friends, Taylor here! Our very first cardmaking kit of 2025 is here, and it’s one for the books—literally! The Treat Your Shelf Cardmaking Kit is packed with everything you need to create charming, book-themed cards that are perfect for the readers in your life or anyone who loves a cozy vibe.
This kit features stacks of books you can customize with adorable details like a cup of tea, a glowing lamp, a flickering candle, or even a cuddly cat to top it all off! And for those who love a little extra magic, we’re partnering with Pear Blossom Press to offer light up elements to go with this release. Use them with the candle, lamp, or any other element to create an interactive card that lights up at the push of a button!
Our cardmaking kits have some new features this year! They will be stored in a TE Velcro pouch with a pouch sticker. Kits will also include a Taylored Tutorial instruction sheet with step-by-step instructions for creating a specific project with the contents of the kit.
We’re so excited to offer our first kit of 2025 that’s sure to be a fan favorite! Click below to grab your Treat Your Shelf Cardmaking Kit, scroll for some literary inspiration from our Creative Team, and don’t forget to join me live at 10am for some crafty fun!
