Just a note card - using layers & texture

  

Good Morning! I hope your week is going well and you are ready for the summer!

I needed a quick non-sentiment card so I pulled out some panel dies and some patterned scrap paper to create this card.

The umbrella and sentiment dies are from Concord & 9th

I added lots of dimension with the use of an embossing folder for the background and then adding lots of layering of the florals, and decorative elements.

Happy Crafting!

Crashin' my Stash - Summer Strawberries

 Good Morning! I hope you are well.

Thank you for visiting.

Today's card uses an old die I had in my stash. One for a mason jar. Do you remember when mason jars were all the rage in paper crafting! Let's be honest, have mason jars ever been out of style?

I thought filling them with some little strawberries would be a nice summer touch.

Add some flowers to surround it and draw to help the eye flow over the whole card.

I hope you enjoyed my card!

Busting your stash - hexagon pattern

 

Happy Friday! I hope your doing well. 

Setting my crafty goals for 2026 and my plan is to completely use up some 6 x 6 paper pads that only have a few pages left and/or paper scraps and to use some dies or stamp sets that I purchased in the past and haven not crafted with yet. 

 Do you have any crafty goals for 2026? Comment below to share them!

I used some hexagon nesting dies to cut out the small hexagons out of patterned paper and then next size up for the black background.

Stash busting - Strawberry Basket

Hello and welcome to All Things Beautiful! 

I am still working on my crafty goal for 2026 to use up 6 x 6 patterned paper and cardstock scraps. 

Today's card does both. 

When I saw this background paper all I could think of was summer strawberries.

I ha love fresh strawberries so I thought it would be fun to craft a basket of them today.

I was able to make a few of these cards and I can't wait to mail them out. I think these cards will brighten someone's day! What do you think?

The patterned paper is from Echo Park and the die set is from Lawn Fawn. I used Gina K Designs cardstock.

I hope you enjoyed my card and find some time today to be creative.

Happy crafting!

Simple layered card - Bright light

Hi There Friends! 

Just a quick and simple layered card today! 

 I grabbed some scrap patterned paper, anchored the sentiment on a white panel die cut piece of cardstock.

Then took some black ink, to add my sentiment and an image; a simple gel pen adds some coordinating color and some sequins for dimension finishes this card off. 

Some days we just want simple. lol

Shaker Card - Popsicle

 Good Morning! I hope your week is going well.  

 Welcome to All Things Beautiful!

Today's card features a fun shaker card!

I chose to use a patterned panel background and fill it with some various scraps from my stash. It took some time to cut the sections out but I think the little extra effort was worth it and it came together nicely!

This popsicle die i found on Amazon for just a few dollars. I layered the popsicle window at least 4 layers thick to create a nice pocket to hold the sequins and then adhered clear plastic to the front and back.

Happy crafting!
