Frosty Texture Meets Cozy Wishes ❄️ Frozen Fractal Card featuring our January 2026 Card Kit by Tina Smith

Hi friend! I’m delighted to welcome back special guest Tina Smith to our blog today with fresh and gorgeous inspiration showcasing our brand new January 2026 Card kit! Be sure to watch the video for all the details, and enjoy!

Hi everyone, it’s Tina! If you have a birthday celebration in the near future, I have the perfect card to share with you! I’ve been getting crafty with the amazing Simon Says Stamp January 2026 Card Kit!
I put together a multi-layered Winter birthday card featuring a two-toned embossed snowflake. I love adding unexpected elements, so I used one of the trees from the stamp set to add that second pop of color to the snowflake. It’s so fun and it works beautifully! I also added the Twinkle Texture Paste to one of the stencil layers for sparkle.


Everything you need to join the fun is in the kit, minus some basic “housekeeping” items: twine, a tiny bit of extra sparkle (because is there such a thing as too much?), and the pine needles (those are from the “Pine and Post” Envelope Gift Card Die in last month’s kit).
I hope my tutorial inspires you to get creative! Enjoy the process and Merry Christmas!
