Simple Lily of the Valley card; it’s a WOW! Grab the free project sheet or watch the video

August 17, 2026

I shared this beautiful Lily of the Valley card on last week’s Live video. It’s one of those cards that looks simple and easy but involves a bit of effort.

I used the Lily of the Valley dies along with the Everyday Arches dies on the vellum and the Floral Spray 3D embossing folder (it’s back in stock) for the background. White & Granny Apple Green are my colors here.

Since I did-cut the flowers from White CS I used a Granny Apple Green blends marker to color the stems on the flowers. I also curled the die-cut leaves a bit and cut one apart for the thicker stems in the center area. Watch the video to see how.

Did you notice there isn’t a greeting on the front? It’s okay to leave them off now and then. This way my card can be used for any purpose.

I didn’t even stamp one on the inside. Just a simple leaf/flower image. Click here to see the Lily of the Valley in my store. It’s wonderful.

I created a free project sheet for this card as well as my video below. Click here for the project sheet you can download or print.

Can you tell which is stamped and which is Designer paper?

May 13, 2021

I made these on FB live this week using the Expressions in Ink suite. Can you tell which background is stamped and which is Designer Paper?

Save

My top favorite suite in the new Annual catalog is the Expressions in Ink. See it here or on page 96-97. It's filled with stamps & paper that mimic alcohol ink backgrounds. Toss in the beautiful gold accents and it's stunning!

Here's a close up of the card. Can you tell if I stamped it or if it's designer paper?

Save

Yes; I did stamp it! These images are so neat! I can see lots of uses for both the greetings and the faux alcohol ink stamps. See how in the video below. Mmm; I think I'll try a one sheet wonder with these…..!

And look at the leaves die-cuts! I cut them from In Color Shimmer Vellum & Gold Foil paper. The tag is from the Tailor Made Tags dies.

Here's the FB Live replay video. Sorry the text isn't flipped so you can read it. FB changed their settings and the tool icon is gone.

Inspired Thoughts Bundle; a beautiful scene

May 12, 2021
I created this card for an online swap I participated in last month. I just love it!

The main 4 trees die-cut can be cut apart which opens a whole world of possibilities!

Save

Here's how I made it:
1. Die-cut the trees and hill using the Inspiring Canopy dies (seen below).
2. Cut the 4 trees apart at the bottom connection point. Set aside.
3. Sponge clouds using Pool Party ink onto the 4" X 5 1/4" Basic White CS. I used the Basic Border dies (cloud).
4. Sponge Calypso Coral ink onto the bottom third of this piece.
5. Adhere the trees to the edge of each side.
6. Add the hill piece; trim off excess from hill and trees. Adhere to the Calypso Coral card base.
7. Finish with Genial Gems.
You can see the beautiful Inspired Thoughts bundle here.

Fresh In colors with new Shimmer Vellum flowers

May 11, 2021

I'm not sure if I'll ever get tired of playing with the new 2021-23 In colors. They are fresh and spring-like; almost fruity.

For today's card I added four 1 1/4" X 4" strips of the new 6 X 6" In Color designer paper to a standard 5 1/2" X 8 1/2" white card base. It had prominent placement on my In Color display last week at my New Catalog Launch party.

Save

I cut out a die-cut label from the Scalloped Contours dies and stamped my greeting (from the Sweet Ice Cream set) using Soft Succulent ink.

The flowers are from the soon to retire (June 2021) Perennial dies. The colored flowers are cut from the new Shimmer Vellum; available here in all 5 of our In Colors! So pretty!!

Save

I colored the pearls on the flowers with the In Color Blends markers. Having these coordinating Blends markers means I can color any gem I want to match! Two of these Blends are already on back-order! They are HOT items!

See all of our new 2021-23 In Color products here.
