The dry-embossed, rope-textured card base adds a nautical touch, while the sentiment conveys a heartwarming message. Whether for a birthday, a thank-you note, or just a thoughtful gesture, this card is sure to brighten anyone’s day.

    • With the All Wrapped Up folder, dry-emboss green cardstock. Add to an A2-size card base.

Spellbinders Die-cut Still Life Scene

Hello! Today I’m sharing a card on which I’ve brought together several die sets to design a timeless still life scene featuring vases filled with greenery and cheerful daisies. The die-cut sentiment, “bloom,” adds a sweet and simple finishing touch to the design. This card showcases how mixing and matching products can inspire entirely new designs.

Spellbinders Die-cut Still Life Scene

    • Dry-emboss light-yellow cardstock with the Tiny Dots folder. Add to an A2-size card base. Add a strip of gray cardstock (SU Gray Granite) 1 1/4″ tall (by 5 1/2″ wide) to the base to represent the ground.
    • Cut the Ceramic Vases from three cardstock colors.
    • With dies in the Floral Stems set, cut the daisies from textured white cardstock, yellow cardstock (SU Daffodil Delight) and white glitter foam (glitter side down). Cut additional greenery with dies in the Autumn Sealed Sprigs set.
    • Cut sentiment from white cardstock and white glitter foam (glitter side down) with a die in the Fresh Picked Sentiments set. Adhere.
    • Add vases with greenery and flowers to the card base with dot adhesive and foam squares. Add sentiment with glue.

Pond-Themed Stencil Card | Waffle Flower

Hello! Dive into the tranquility of nature with a pond-themed card created with the Waffle Flower The Pond stencil, part of their postage collage line. The layering stencil design brings the scene to life and a preprinted punny sentiment adds the perfect finishing touch.

Pond-Themed Stencil Card | Waffle Flower

As I worked with the Waffle Flower stencil, I found myself fully immersed in the creative flow—layering colors and details became a meditative process.

    • Dry-emboss yellow cardstock panel (SU Daffodil Delight) with the Penny Black Texture folder; add to an A2-sized card base.
    • Cut white cardstock with the Postage Collage Die before stenciling The Pond. On my first foray into the Waffle Flower postage collage line, I stenciled first and then cut. Cutting first is the better approach!
    • Optionally, back the stenciled panel with white cardstock. Stamp the postage elements with the Postage Collage stamps set with Archival black ink.
    • Add the Hoppy sentiment with foam adhesive to the center of the panel. The subsentiments are preprinted. I used Black Soot ink around the edges to cover the white of the cardstock for a polished look.
    • Add the panel to the card base with foam adhesive.
