A gorgeous card with the Joyful Tidings set

November 24, 2025

This beautiful card has tons of Gold accents plus there are lots of neat tips you’ll appreciate. I made it during last week’s video.

It was originally created for our November Team swap. The theme was to use foil or metallic heat embossing. I did both!

Notice the background stamping on the right side; I used the Amber Autumn set with Versamark ink. The greeting is from the Ornamental Christmas set. The gold foil ‘wheat’ die-cuts are from the Amber Autumn dies
The wreath stamp set is Joyful Tidings and can be seen here. I’ve always loved wreaths and used to collect them.

Here I simply heat embossed the partial wreath in Gold embossing powder. It’s stamped on a die-cut from the Spotlight on Nature dies. See the pretty gold hoop? Those are available here and are applied with either mini glue dots or thin lines of Multipurpose Liquid Glue (which I did).

My colors include Basic Beige, Mossy Meadow and Gold foil. I textured the Mossy Meadow layer with the Wreath 3D embossing folder. I also used the Labeled with Love punch to achieve the ‘ticket’ shaped corners.
*look at your punches to see if you can use them in new ways!

This card is a slightly different fold because the second layer is what opens. I created a free project sheet for this card for you. Click here to download or print it.

I also have a video tutorial seen below for this beautiful card and one more beautiful card featuring the Joyful Tidings stamp set that I’ll share Wednesday.

I played with the new Botanical Layers bundle for last week's Facebook Live. This unique bundle includes a stamp set and a pack of 60 sheets of printed & plain vellum and can be seen here.

Here's my favorite project:

I sponged colors of Bermuda Bay, Parakeet Party & Tahitian Tide onto one side of the vellum before adhering it to a layer of White CS. I added a die-cut from the Tropical Layer dies seen here (50% off right now!) and a greeting die-cut.

More ideas with the Botanical Layers & Lovely Layers vellum with video

May 29, 2022

Here are two more cards I made during last week's FB Live video. The Botanical Layers bundle includes both the stamp set and the Lovely Layers 3 3/4" X 5" vellum.

When I saw this piece of vellum with it's multi-hues vellum I knew I wanted to emulate a mountain scene.

Save

I used a direct to paper technique to add ink to this vellum. This means you rub your ink pad directly onto the paper. Watch the video here to see how it's done.

I used Tahitian Tide, Granny Apple Green & Orchid Oasis. I stamped the flowers in Black Memento ink.

Tip: Vellum does not absorb ink. It sits on top so it's best to heat set it or let it dry for an hour or more.

Save

For this next card I simply stamped a few of the images in the Botanical Layers stamp set onto the polka dot printed vellum. I used Parakeet Party & Orchid Oasis inks.

Save

I also used the Amazing Thanks dies seen here. A simple strip of Parakeet Party card stock across the card highlights the greeting.
