3 ways to use the Layered Floral on one card!

February 7, 2024

I shared this pretty textured card on last week's FB live video:

The textured card stock is Fresh Freesia. I used a Blending Brush with Blackberry Bliss ink to highlight the gorgeous texture. The Layered Floral 3D embossing folder is amazing; it has super deep texture!

I made a second card during the video with another rich color combination of Night of Navy with Boho Blue. Note the different ways I added vellum to these two cards.

Also note the pretty texture added to the envelope flap; why don't we do this more often!?

Here are the 3 ways I featured this pretty Layered Floral 3D embossing folder:

Textured, then added ink with a Blending Brush.
I textured the envelope flap and add a very light ink, again with a Blending Brush.
Cut out a large flower from a separate piece of textured card stock; and I punched a smaller flower using the Petal Park Builder punch – yes it coordinates!!

Striking and fun Black Magic technique with video!

June 30, 2026

I shared this pretty card on last week’s Live video. It’s the Black Magic technique!

Save

My colors include Peaceful Pine, Old Olive (ink only), Golden Glow and White. It features the Fern & Flora bundle seen here.

Save

What is the Black Magic technique? It’s where you start with a light neutral piece of card stock and add color with sponges or markers. Then stamp images in Versamark and heat emboss with clear embossing powder. The magic happens when you cover it completely with a water based ink (here I used Secret Sea). Then wipe off the ink that does not ‘stick’ to the heat embossed areas. True magic!

Watch my video tutorial further below to see this technique in action.

Save

On this card I used mostly the stamp images; only the greeting die-cut is from the dies. I added a few In Color butterfly gems and the pretty Golden Glow ribbon too.

I created a free project sheet for this card; click here to download it or to print it.

I made one with Golden Glow as the card base and the other as Peaceful Pine as the card base.

Below is the video tutorial for this card and another.

Pretty Fern & Flora card; with free project sheet & video tutorial

June 29, 2026

There’s something about crisp white on a card. It gives a feeling of elegance to your projects.

Save

This card features the Fern & Flora bundle seen here. The designer paper is called Moonlit Flora and the embossing folder is called Fern & Flora and can be seen here. Unfortunately the Designer paper AND the embossing folder are out of stock right now. Very popular products!

I took a little creative license and added White fern die-cuts here. I love the way they show up against the Moonlit Flora designer paper strip.

The colors include Peaceful Pine, with White and the new Golden Glow in color.

Save

Which do you like better? All green and White on the upper right, or the pop of the additional Golden Glow?

The pretty Moonlit Flora designer paper offers multiple patterns: See it here. Be sure to add your name to the product so you get an email when it’s back in stock.
