Card Making Countdown 2025

While decluttering my phone gallery, I realized I have so many craft projects that I never got around to sharing. So this January 2026, I decided it’s finally time to start posting my craft projects and giving them the spotlight they deserve.
 
One of the highlights of 2025 was joining Craft with Sarah’s Card Making Countdown 2025. It was such a fun and creative challenge. Because life got busy, I only managed to finish 4 cards, and I was able to submit 3 out of the 14 card projects in total. Even so, I never expected what happened next…
 
I was fortunate to win 2nd prize (random draw). Yehey!  It was such a wonderful surprise and a big motivation to keep crafting and sharing my work.
 
Here are the card projects I completed for the countdown:
 
Rocker Card


A fun, interactive card that gently rocks back and forth when placed on a flat surface. It’s playful, eye-catching, and perfect for special occasions. I wasn’t sure what to put on my Rocker Card, so I used leftover cut-out designs from my Comic Card.
  
Decorative Border Cards




Cards featuring beautifully detailed borders. These are elegant and great for showcasing intricate cut details. I used only white paper and Distress Mica Stain Spray to color the design. 
 
Z-Fold Card


A creative fold that opens in a zigzag shape, adding dimension and surprise. This style is perfect for layered designs and storytelling layouts. I used a ready-made file because I really liked this Christmas Carolers card. 
 
Faux Stained Glass Card


A card designed to mimic the look of stained glass using layered cuts or colored markers and translucent materials, creating a striking and colorful effect.
 
The Card Making Countdown was already over, but I liked this design so much that I made it anyway. The photo doesn’t do it justice, but I added Broken Glass Phototop on top of the acetate to achieve the stained glass effect.
