BLESSED BEGINNINGS | FAUX CENTER STEP CARD

Hi friends! I’m so glad you’re here! Today’s project was created during my Weekly Card Class featuring the Blessed Beginnings Bundle. If you haven’t joined me live yet, come say hi next time! I go live every Thursday at 3:00 PM CT over on my YouTube channel. Be sure to subscribe and click the bell so you’re notified when I go live.

You’ll find the full supply list and links to the products I used below, along with the replay of this week’s live class so you can follow along and create your own.

This was such a fun and easy card to put together. The base is created with two pieces of Thick Basic White cardstock and a few layers of that gorgeous Lovevly Blossoms Designer Series Paper.

The piece of Crumb Cake cardstock on the front step was embossed with the Birch Wood embossing folder. It adds a nice grounding piece for the focal image, don't you think? 

I used Crumb Cake and Secret Sea ink to stamp the "Easter Blessings" sentiment. I love how these two colors complement one another. 

On a scrap piece of Basic White cardstock, I stamped the church image in Memento Black ink and used Smoky Slate Stampin’ Blends to color the steeple and roof, and to add definition to the outline. I stamped the cross with Pecan Pie ink, then used Pecan Pie Stampin’ Blends for the door and windows. The steps and bricks were colored with Crumb Cake Stampin’ Blends. After coloring, I used the coordinating dies to cut it out.

I used the little hedge dies to cut the small hedges from Old Olive cardstock. and Vellum to cut out the circle.

Once all the pieces were die-cut, I layered them onto the circle with Stampin’ Dimensionals and liquid adhesive. Then added it ot the center of the card front.

I added a few 25-27 Incolor Flat Pearls and a sweet Linen Thread Bow to finish it off.

BLESSED BEGINNINGS | LOVELY BLOSSOM BLESSINGS

Hi friends! I’m so glad you’re here! Today’s project was created during my Weekly Card Class featuring the Blessed Beginnings Bundle. If you haven’t joined me live yet, come say hi next time! I go live every Thursday at 3:00 PM CT over on my YouTube channel. Be sure to subscribe and click the bell so you’re notified when I go live.

You’ll find the full supply list and links to the products I used below, along with the replay of this week’s live class, so you can follow along and create your own.

This project is just so pretty… I love the soft colors and that sweet little scene; it all comes together so beautifully for Easter.

I started with a Cloud Cover card base and layered on two pieces of Lovely Blossoms Designer Series Paper. That mix of patterns adds interest without taking away from the focal point.

For the main image, I used the Everyday Arches dies to cut an arch from Basic White cardstock. I stamped the “Blessings” sentiment at the top using Secret Sea ink, then softly blended Cloud Cover ink in the center of the arch for a subtle sky effect.

On a scrap piece of Basic White cardstock, I stamped the tree, hedge, and church images in Memento Black ink. I colored the tree and hedge with Pecan Pie and Old Olive Stampin’ Blends.

For the church, I used Smoky Slate Stampin’ Blends to color the steeple and roof, and to add definition to the outline. I stamped the cross with Pecan Pie ink, then used Pecan Pie Stampin’ Blends for the door and windows. The steps and bricks were colored with Crumb Cake Stampin’ Blends.

After coloring, I used the coordinating dies to cut out all the images.

To build the scene, I stamped the grounding image at the bottom left of the arch using Crumb Cake ink. I added the tree just above it with Stampin’ Dimensionals, then popped the church up to the right of the tree. A little trick here: I placed a Mini Stampin’ Dimensional between the tree and the church and attached the hedge to it. This helps position the hedge perfectly in the scene.

I used the Light Crumb Cake Stampin’ Blends to add shading underneath the entire focal image, which really helps anchor everything.

For the clouds, I colored a scrap piece of Basic White cardstock with Cloud Cover Stampin’ Blends, then die-cut the cloud shapes. I tucked them behind the church and the tree using liquid adhesive. This is such a soft detail, but it adds so much.

Once everything was finished, I popped the entire arch up on the card front with Stampin’ Dimensionals.

On the inside, I added a strip of Lovely Blossoms Designer Series Paper to the bottom of a piece of Basic White cardstock and layered it in, creating a clean space to write your message.

To finish things off, I scattered a few 2025–2027 In Color Flat Pearls across the front for just the right amount of shine.

Thank you so much for stopping by! Be sure to check back tomorrow for the last project we created this week, a center-step fun-fold card. I can’t wait to share it with you. Have a safe and blessed Easter.

BLESSED BEGINNINGS | EASTER BLESSINGS

Hi friends! I’m so glad you’re here! Today’s project was created during my Weekly Card Class featuring the Blessed Beginnings Bundle. If you haven’t joined me live yet, come say hi next time! I go live every Thursday at 3:00 PM CT over on my YouTube channel. Be sure to subscribe and click the bell so you’re notified when I go live.

You’ll find the full supply list and links to the products I used below, along with the replay of this week’s live class so you can follow along and create your own.

This card… oh my goodness, I am in love with how it turned out. It’s simple, meaningful, and just so beautiful for Easter.

I started with a Secret Sea card base and layered on that gorgeous Lovely Blossoms Designer Series Paper. That deep pattern really makes the focal point pop—such a great contrast.

For the focal piece, I used the Everyday Arches dies to cut one arch from Cloud Cover cardstock and another from Basic White. I softly blended Cloud Cover ink across the top of the white arch to create that light, sky-like effect. It’s subtle, but it adds so much.

I stamped the “Easter Blessings” sentiment near the bottom of the arch, then added the tree just above and slightly to the left using Memento Black ink. The tree is colored with Old Olive and Pecan Pie Stampin’ Blends, giving it that fresh, spring feel.

To ground the scene, I stamped the base image in Crumb Cake ink and added a little extra shading with Crumb Cake Stampin’ Blends. That small detail really brings everything together.

The church is the star of the show. I stamped it on Basic White cardstock in Memento Black, then used Smoky Slate for the roof, steeple, and to outline the structure. I colored the door, bricks, and windows with Pecan Pie and Crumb Cake Stampin’ Blends. After that, I used the coordinating die to cut it out and popped it up with Stampin’ Dimensionals right next to the tree. A little bit of shading underneath helps anchor it into the scene.

Once the arch was finished, I adhered it to the card front with Stampin’ Dimensionals for added depth.

On the inside, I stamped the small hedge image in Memento Black and colored it with Old Olive Stampin’ Blends. It’s a simple detail, but it ties the whole card together perfectly.

To finish it off, I added a few 2025–2027 In Color Pearls to the front for just a soft touch of shine.

Thank you so much for stopping by! Be sure to check back soon for the other projects we created this week—I can’t wait to share them with you.

BRUSHED WITH BEAUTY | YOU'RE A GREAT FRIEND

 Hi friends!

Today I am sharing card #3 from Thursday's 3PM card class. If you've haven't joined before, I go live every Thursday at 3 PM CT for my Weekly Card Class on Facebook and YouTube, and I would love for you to join me! If you can’t make it live, no worries, you can catch the replay for this card using the link at the bottom of this post.

Today’s card is so beautiful… I’m in love with the soft florals and layered textures! This project features the Brushed with Beauty and Words of Beauty Bundles, and it came together in such a gorgeous way.

I started with a Crumb Cake card base and layered another piece of Crumb Cake cardstock embossed with the Beautiful Pattern Embossing Folder. That subtle texture adds so much interest without taking away from the focal point, so pretty!

Next, I added two strips of Brushed with Beauty Designer Series Paper along the left edge, slightly staggered and overlapping for a layered look. Then I created my focal point using a die-cut vellum circle from the Spotlight on Nature dies.

For the flower, I stamped the outline in Calypso Coral, stamping off first to get that soft, watercolor effect—and I did the same with the filler image. The leaves were stamped in full-strength Mossy Meadow, and the flower center in Early Espresso. I used the coordinating dies to cut everything out, then adhered the leaf and center to the flower.

To add a little extra texture (because you know I love that!), I tucked a linen thread bow behind the flower and adhered it to the vellum circle using Stampin’ Dimensionals.

The “because” sentiment is created using dies 2 and 3 from the Words of Beauty Bundle. I die-cut it from both Very Vanilla and Crumb Cake cardstock, layered them, and popped it up with dimensionals for a little depth.

I adhered the vellum circle to the card front with liquid adhesive, then stamped the “You’re a great friend” sentiment in Early Espresso and die cut it using the largest label die from the Words of Beauty Bundle.

To finish the card, I added a piece of Very Vanilla cardstock to the inside for a clean space to write a sweet message, and sprinkled a few Pearls of Beauty embellishments on the front for that perfect finishing touch.

This card is just so beautiful—soft, textured, and full of lovely details. Stop it… I seriously love how it turned out!

BRUSHED WITH BEAUTY | i APPRECIATE YOU

Hey friends!

Today I’m sharing the second card we created during my live class on Thursday, March 26, 2026—and this one is all about that soft, dreamy watercolor look. Seriously… are you kidding me?! I’m in love with how this background turned out. If you missed the live, you can catch the replay using the link at the bottom of this post.

If you’ve never joined me live before, I go live every Thursday at 3:00 PM CT on Facebook and YouTube, and we create three projects together using my featured product of the week. It’s always such a fun time!

For this card, we started with a Very Vanilla card base and added a layer of that gorgeous Brushed with Beauty Designer Series Paper. Then came the fun part… the watercolor background. I used Fluid 100 Watercolor Paper and a Water Painter to lay down some water first, then added two layers of color using Petal Pink and Calypso Coral. The colors blended so beautifully and created that soft, artistic wash—so beautiful!

For the focal point, I stamped the flower outline in full-strength Darling Duckling ink and the leaves in Old Olive. I also stamped and die cut the flower center in Memento Black, which really helps everything pop. Then I used the coordinating dies to cut all the pieces out.

Once the watercolor panel was completely dry, I layered it onto the card front. I added a little Linen Thread behind the flower and leaves for some texture, then popped everything up in the upper right corner with Dimensionals. I love how that little detail adds so much interest!

The sentiment was stamped in Mossy Meadow onto a die-cut label from the Words of Beauty Bundle—such a clean and simple touch that balances out the background perfectly.

For the inside, I added a Very Vanilla layer with a strip of Designer Series Paper along the bottom to tie everything together.

To finish it off, I added a few Pearls of Beauty embellishments for just a little shine… because you know I can’t resist! 

Thank you so much for stopping by. I hope you enjoyed today’s project!

BRUSHED WITH BEAUTY | BECAUSE I LOVE YOU

Hey friends!

I’m so excited to share the first card we made during my live class on Thursday, March 26, 2026—and oh my goodness, this one turned out so beautiful. If you missed the live, no worries at all, I’ve got the replay linked for you at the bottom of this post so you can catch it anytime.

If you’re new around here, I go live every Thursday at 3:00 PM CT, and we create three projects together using my featured product of the week. It’s always such a fun time! Join me on Facebook or YouTube.

This week we played with the Brushed with Beauty Suite, and I’m not even kidding… I am in love with these soft florals and all the layering you can do with them. This card has that perfect mix of texture, dimension, and just a little bit of elegance.

We started with a Crumb Cake card base and added that gorgeous floral Designer Series Paper right on top—such an easy way to make a big impact right away. For the flowers, I used my favorite technique… two-step stamping. I stamped the outline first, then stamped off once before adding it to the cardstock to get that softer look. I repeated that with the filler image, and it gives the flowers that dreamy, layered effect. So pretty!

The flowers and leaves were cut using the coordinating dies, which makes everything come together so easily. For the sentiment, I used the Words of Beauty Bundle and created that layered “just” using Very Vanilla, Vellum, and Crumb Cake. That little stack of layers adds so much interest without being overwhelming.

I added a soft vellum layer to the center of the card front, then built my focal panel right on top. Once everything was in place, I stamped “because I love you” in Calypso Coral—and I love how that pop of color ties everything together.

To finish it off, I popped up the flowers and sentiment with Dimensionals (because dimension makes everything better, right?!) and added a few pearls for just a little extra shine. I also added a Very Vanilla layer to the inside, so there’s a nice, clean space to write your message.

This card is soft, layered, and just… so beautiful. One of those designs that looks fancy but is actually really fun to put together.

Card Base: 4-1/4" x 11", scored & folded at 5-1/2"

Notes of Spring A Little Note of Thanks

Hi friends! Today, I’m sharing the last card from this week’s live card class, and oh my goodness…this one is just so sweet. It features the Notes of Nature stamp set, which is the March Product of the Month from Stampin’ Up!

This set is such a good one. You’ve got those adorable nature-inspired images, like this little bunny, paired with soft, organic elements that make everything feel calm and effortless. It gives you that layered, watercolor-style look without any fuss, and I am here for it.

For this card, I wanted to keep everything soft and neutral with just a touch of color. I started with a Basic Beige card base and added that pretty Petal Pink frame using the Perennial Postage dies. Then I layered on a piece of the Whispers of Texture specialty paper, and can we just talk about that subtle texture for a second? It’s so beautiful and adds just the right amount of interest without overpowering anything.

Now let’s talk about this bunny. I stamped him in Gray Granite and lightly colored his ears with Petal Pink Stampin’ Blends. I also added a little bit of shadow underneath with  Gray Granite Stampin’ Blends to ground him; it’s a tiny detail, but it really brings him to life. I cut him out with a circle from the Spotlight on Nature dies and added a bit of linen thread behind for some softness and texture before popping it up on the card front with Stampin' Dimensionals.

The sentiment is stamped in Early Espresso ink on a die-cut banner from the Stylish Shapes dies, cut from Crumb Cake cardstock. I layered it right over the circle using both liquid glue and dimensionals to give it a little extra depth.

To finish everything off, I added a few muted palette dots, and that was it. Simple, soft, and just so pretty.

I love how this card turned out. It’s one of those designs that feels calm and classic but still has a little something special.

Supplies I used for this card: 

Cardstock: Basic Beige, Petal Pink, Basic White, Crumb Cake, and Whispers of Texture Specialty Paper. 

Coloring: Gray Granite and Early Espresso Classic Ink Pads, Petal Pink Stampin’ Blends

Embellishments: Mutted Pallete Dots, Linen Thread

Other Tools: Spotlight on Nature and Stylish Shapes Dies
