I finished the Handmade & Heartfelt kit; it’s so cool!

October 8, 2025

I played with this fun kit yesterday and made 13 cards! This neat card kit is discounted through today only. It would make a fabulous gift or enjoy it for yourself. see it here

It’s a 10 card kit with envelopes, a stamp set, a storage box, ink spot and more. I added a few extra card bases and got an extra 3 cards from it.
Here are my bonus cards:

See the lower right card? I used the template from the lower left card to sponge Secret Sea ink through the holes to create the starburst pattern. When I did this I did it on the back side so I could still use it on the ‘thanks’ card.

Below are a few more cards I changed up from the original plan. It’s so fun to do this. Even though it’s a pre-planned card kit I love adding my own spin on them.

The cards, envelopes, stamp set etc all fit in the organizer box that’s includes. What a great way to store your cards! See this kit here.

How to make the embossing folder the star of your card; with video!

May 18, 2026

I shared a few ways to highlight the texture on your 3D embossing folders on last week’s video. I shared the cards I created with the 5 new In Colors and how it’s done.

Save

This is the Floral Spray 3D embossing folder seen here. It’s currently out of stock unfortunately. Please put your name on the list to be notified when it’s back.

Steps: I textured the CS first. Then rubbed my Craft White ink pad over it lightly. It catches on all the pretty raised areas, highlighting them beautifully. This can take some practice and I recommend you ink pad not be fully inked.

Save

I wrapped matching In Color ribbons across the cards and added a greeting. So simple but stunning in person.

Save

The greeting die-cuts are from the Scalloped Blooms dies seen here. The greetings are from the Opulent Oasis & Balloon Festoon stamp sets.

Save

Of course this technique; I’m calling it ‘white-washing’ shows up best on darker card stock. Here’s one I did with the Fern & Flora embossing folder seen here:

Save

This is our new Peaceful Pine in color. The greeting tag is from the new Classic Labels Mix & Match ephemera seen here. Love these pretty White labels!

Below is the video tutorial with tips for success on this technique.

Beautiful Scenic Coast swap card

May 14, 2026

Look at this beautiful Scenic Coast swap card made by Darla. Our Team swap theme was to use new product from the 2026 May-August catalog.

Save

She used multiple new products here. First is the Scenic Coast DSP seen here and the Sunset Coast bundle here for the main image. I love how she added yellow to the lighthouse and green to the hills. They are small itty pieces inserted in the die-cut windows. Wow!

The background is Crisp Cantaloupe textured with the So Swirly embossing folder. The White ‘Thank You’ die-cuts are from the Words & Wishes dies seen here.

Just plain stunning! And she is a very new swapper on my Team too! You did a wonderful job Darla!
