Stampin' Up! Framed Violets Birthday Card Tutorial with Violet Dreams Designer Series Paper

 Hi Friends!

Today I'm sharing this elegant handmade birthday card featuring the beautiful Framed Violets bundle and coordinating Violet Dreams Designer Series Paper from Stampin' Up!

I love the soft violet flowers and delicate details on this card. The combination of the floral images, soft colours, and subtle embellishments creates a card that is perfect for birthdays, thinking of you cards, or any special occasion.

During today's demonstration, I shared the measurements and step-by-step instructions for creating this project so you can make one too. One of my favourite things about this design is that it looks detailed and elegant, yet it comes together beautifully with just a few layers and carefully chosen elements.

This card is also a little sneak peek at my upcoming August Framed Violets Class. If you love floral cards and beautiful papercrafting projects, I think you're going to enjoy this class.

I hope today's project inspires you to pull out your favourite floral supplies and spend some time creating. Handmade cards are such a wonderful way to brighten someone's day, and this design would be lovely to have on hand for birthdays and other special occasions.

Be sure to watch the video tutorial below where I walk you through creating this beautiful birthday card step by step. In the video, I'll share the measurements, show you how I layered the gorgeous floral elements, and offer a few tips along the way. Whether you're crafting right along with me or simply looking for inspiration, I hope you'll enjoy today's project and be inspired to create your own version.

 Hi Friends!

Last Tuesday I shared some alternative card ideas using the June Paper Pumpkin kit, Bikes & Blooms.

This month’s kit is absolutely adorable with its bicycles, florals, and pretty silver foil accents. One of my favourite things about Paper Pumpkin is seeing how many different ways the pieces can be used beyond the original instructions.

During the live demonstration I shared a few fun ideas for taking the kit in a different direction and creating projects with your own personal style.

Hi Friends

Earlier this week I shared this adorable Z Fold birthday card featuring the Sweet Bugs bundle from Stampin’ Up!

This project was especially fun to create because I originally made it for our granddaughter Maggie’s recent 6th birthday. I wanted something cheerful, playful, and full of personality, and the Sweet Bugs bundle was absolutely perfect.

I love the combination of the cute bug images, pretty flowers, and interactive Z Fold design. The fold adds extra dimension and creates such a fun surprise when the card is opened.

During the live demonstration I shared how to create the Z Fold base, build the sweet little scene, and add dimension while keeping the card easy to mail.

Beautiful Bloom Boutique Z Fun Fold with Hidden Bookmark

 Hi Friends!

Earlier this week I shared this beautiful Z Fun Fold card live featuring Floral Flight Accents and Bloom Boutique Specialty Designer Paper, and this project was such a fun one to create.

Not only does this card feature an elegant Z fold design, but it also includes a removable bookmark hidden right inside the card. I always love projects that have a little extra surprise detail tucked inside.

The soft blue floral patterns paired with the bold black die-cut accents create such a striking contrast, while the interactive fold makes this card extra special for the recipient.

During the live demonstration I shared how to create the fold, add the bookmark element, and layer the decorative pieces for dimension and balance.

I received a swap card from my friend Shauna Mikuliak with this fold and book mark, and knew I had to share how to create it. This is the card she sent me.

If you missed the live video, you can watch the replay below and create along with me. I hope this project inspires you to try a fun fold card with a little hidden surprise inside. 💜

Elegant Lovely Arrangements Card Featuring Peaceful Pines

 Hi Friends!

Today I’m sharing this elegant handmade card featuring the Lovely Arrangements bundle along with the beautiful new Peaceful Pines In Colour and coordinating designer paper.

I absolutely love the rich earthy feel of Peaceful Pines. It pairs beautifully with simple florals, layered patterns, ribbon, and clean layouts like this one. Sometimes you don’t need lots of layers or techniques to create a striking card — letting the colour and textures do the work can be just as beautiful.

For this project I combined patterned paper, ribbon, simple stamped images, and a clean sentiment layout to create a card that feels elegant but still easy to recreate. The soft floral image and layered greenery accents work perfectly with the richness of the new green tones.

I hope this card gives you a little inspiration to pull out your favourite new In Colours and start creating. 💜

How to Make an Elegant Interlocking Gate Fold Card with Sketched Artisan Garden

 Hi Friends!

This week during my live demonstration, I created this elegant Interlocking Gate Fold card featuring the beautiful Sketched Artisan Garden designer paper. 💜

I absolutely love the combination of the soft pink floral images with the bold black and white designer paper. The contrast creates such a striking card, while the embossed white layers help keep the overall design elegant and soft.

The Interlocking Gate Fold is one of those fun folds that looks extra special when displayed, but it is actually quite easy to create once you see how the pieces work together. It gives the card wonderful movement and interaction while still leaving lots of space for beautiful focal images and sentiments.

During the live video, I shared how I layered the floral panels, added texture with embossing, and assembled the fold so the card opens and closes smoothly.

Soft Floral Card with Sketched Artisan Garden Designer Paper

Hi Friends!

A few nights ago during my live demonstration, I shared this soft and elegant floral card using the beautiful Sketched Artisan Garden designer paper and the Eyelet Blooms Die. 💜

One of my favourite details on this card is the floral image, which was carefully fussy cut directly from the designer paper and then lightly coloured with Stampin’ Blends to add just a touch of extra softness and depth. It’s such an easy way to create a detailed focal point without a lot of extra stamping.

I also love how the textured Eyelet Blooms background adds interest while still keeping the overall card soft and delicate. The black and white accents help frame everything beautifully and give the card a clean, classic finish.

This card is a wonderful reminder that sometimes simple layouts paired with gorgeous designer paper can create truly stunning handmade cards.

Floral Birthday Card Inspiration with Velvet Meadow Specialty Designer Paper and Words & Wishes 💜

 Hi Friends!

Even though I am away on a family cruise this week, I still wanted to share a little crafty inspiration with you! 💜

Today’s card features the beautiful Velvet Meadow Specialty Designer Paper paired with the Words & Wishes bundle to create a bright and cheerful birthday card. Sometimes the designer paper is so pretty that it really becomes the star of the project, and that is definitely the case with this card.

I love the combination of the soft floral meadow background with the bold layered “Happy Birthday” sentiment. The bright pink lettering adds such a fun pop of colour while still letting all those delicate flowers shine through. A few embellishments finish the card off perfectly without taking away from the gorgeous paper design.

Double Pull Out Fun Fold Card with the Fern & Flora Bundle

 Hi Friends!

Even though I am away this week enjoying some family cruise time, I could not leave the craft room completely quiet! 💜

I still wanted to share some creative inspiration with you, and this gorgeous Double Pull Out Fun Fold card felt like the perfect project. This card uses the beautiful Fern & Flora bundle paired with the rich and tropical Moonlit Flora designer paper for a layered, lush design that really stands out.

One of my favourite things about this fold is the interactive element. The Double Pull Out design is fun to create and gives you lots of room to showcase beautiful designer paper and decorative details. The tropical greenery from the Fern & Flora bundle works perfectly with the rich colours and botanical feel of the Moonlit Flora paper.

Here's the measurements for what I used:

• Peaceful Pine card base   5-1/2 x 10 scored at 4-1/4 & 8-1/2
• Golden Glow                   2 x 4-1/4
• Berry Burst                      1-1/4 x 3
• Basic White                     2-1/4 x 3 (x 2 pieces) for the inside sentiments
•                                         2 x 3
• Vellum                            3-1/8 x 3-7/8
• Moonlit Flora DSP         7-3/4 x 4-3/4 scored at 1/2, -5/8, 4-1/8, 4-5/8
•                                         5-1/4 x 4

I used the Fern & Flora bundle and the Words & Wishes Bundle and finished it off with some 2026-28 In Colour Dots.

Since I am away this week, there will not be a video tutorial for this project. But here's the replay for one I did using the Lily Of The Valley bundle that I shared on Monday's blog post.

I hope this card inspires you to pull out your favourite papers and try a fun fold of your own. Sometimes it is so nice to simply enjoy the creative process and play with beautiful products. 💜
