Get more cards in the Gorgeous Expressions of Kindness card kit


This stunning Expressions of Kindness card kit from our Kit Collection was released last month. I made time to play with it a few days ago and it's absolutely gorgeous! 

I liked the cards so well I wanted to make more than the 8 cards in the kit.  It's fun to figure out how to extend the beautiful prints on the cards and envelopes.  I decided to keep it simple and add extra card bases and leave the envelopes intact. 

See this kit here online: 

This first set of cards are almost exactly as the kit suggested except I saved the gold foil leaves for a different card.  There was enough ribbon to add a few knots on each of the above cards and still have enough for the rest of the 8 cards seen below. 

Below are all three individual cards I made. 

For the following two cards I cut the full printed card bases in half. I added 4 white card bases for the left card below. I felt the printed card with the gold foil accents was pretty enough for the ribbon & greeting image.  


For the card on the right above I cut down the card front to 4" X 5 1/4" and layered it onto 4 Blackberry Bliss card bases as seen below.  This is where I added the gold foil leaves with the greeting. 

You can see this beautiful kit here.  It's $23 and includes the 8 cards & envelopes, a stamp set, Blackberry Bliss ink spot, gems, White ribbon and adhesive.

Here's the stamp set included in this kit. The flower head fits on the purple flowers to add detail.

There are two more new kits released in July. Both are card kits – one geared for kids and the other a pretty floral kit.

  • A beautiful Texture Chic card class in the mail, with PDF option too!


    I did a poll in my Facebook group to decide which designer paper to feature in my July card kit to go.  Texture Chic was a top favorite and looking at the finished cards I can see why! 

    The cards came together wonderfully and include a few fun folds that I know people enjoy making & giving.  I used the Peaceful Moments stamp set along with these inks: Soft Succulent, Blushing Bride, Pool Party & Soft Suede.

    When designing my card kits I like to use mostly greetings that most people can easily substitute.  Usually the designer paper, layouts, fun folds &/or accessories are the star of the cards.  

    The Texture Chic specialty DSP is filled with gold accents and gorgeous printed textures. Click here to see it. 

    If you want to make these cards you have a few choices:

    1. Get the PDF tutorial only here.  $15
    2. Or choose the pre-cut card kit here. $28 plus shipping

    Here's how it works:

    The pre-cut card kit includes $20 in product and you receive the PDF tutorial free.  It's the best deal. 

    You'll receive 1/2 pkg of the Texture Chic specialty DSP (6" X 12"), a share of the Brushed Metallic Adhesive-Backed dots and 3/8" shimmer Gold ribbon.  You'll have plenty of supplies left to make even more cards!  The kit includes all pre-cut pieces including die-cuts or punched pieces.  It does not include textured embossing. 

    The kit and tutorial include 2 each of 5 card designs. The PDF tutorial includes photos, measurements, supplies and step & step directions.  See both here on my shop as well as a few other kits I have available. 

    What you need to complete these cards:

    1. a paper trimmer, adhesives & paper snips
    2. Inks and stamp greetings
    3. Die-cut & embossing machine to add texture to some layers

    These cards are absolutely beautiful and can be used for many occasions.

  • Happy 4th of July – Fun Dots & Spots card


    Happy 4th of July!  

    This fun card is made with a two new products from the Annual Catalog.  The Dots & Spots die seen here and Alphabest Bundle seen here.  The stars are die-cuts from the Give it a Whirl dies seen here. (also from the Annual Catalog)

    This cute punch bundle is so easy to say what you want on your projects; punching makes it fast!  Think about the birthday cards you could personalize! 

    I also added a new trim from the 2022 Holiday catalog called 3/16th Iridescent Trim.

    On this week's Live video I shared 3 pretty projects featuring the new Splendid Thoughts bundle from the upcoming Holiday catalog.  Here's the first one: 

    The colors include Petal Pink, Soft Sea Foam, White and Calypso Coral with a few Copper elements too.  

    I stamped the background on the Petal Pink card base using one of the leaf images in Petal Pink ink. The textured White adds a soft background to the many leaf die-cuts. 

    Can you spot the main difference between these two cards? 

    I used one of the dies in the Splendid Stems dies for the greeting piece on the right card. Which do you prefer?  

    And here's my favorite card I shared in the video.  I cased the idea from my friend Lorri Heiling.  It's so simple but super special with the foil stitched squares and die-cut leaf.  There's something extra special about this leaf die-cut. Can you tell what it is?  

    It's hard to see in the photo but the entire leaf is on dimensionals.  What?!  Yes!  I adhered a piece of White card stock to our Foam Adhesive Sheets seen here and then die-cut it all at once.  So not the entire leaf is popped up.  So cool and easily noticed in person.  


    The card above is made with a copper colored foil piece and the one below is in Fresh Freesia.  I also added an extra textured layer to the card base. 


    The greetings are from the Splendid Thoughts stamp set on a die-cut from the Stylish Shapes dies.  A thin strip of Fresh Freesia CS under the greeting pulls it all together.  

    Click on the photo below to watch the video. You'll see all 3 projects with the Splendid Thoughts bundle.
