Hello my lovelies, how are you this bank holiday weekend? Today’s card has been sat on my shelf a while now as I was waiting to see if I could improve the technique used.

Soft florals and layered details are definitely my Soft florals and layered details are definitely my happy place 🌸✨

For this card I used the Craft-A-Flower: Grand Dahlia Layering Die Set from @altenewllc to create these dreamy ink-blended blooms in soft yellow, peach, and coral tones. I paired them with an embossed background and layered foliage for lots of texture and dimension without losing that soft elegant feel.

I also added a little white splatter because apparently I physically can’t stop myself at this point 😂

This card is proof that you should never throw you This card is proof that you should never throw your scraps away 👀✨ 

The navy background panel here? Total leftover cardstock from another project… and honestly, it ended up becoming the star of the whole design 💙 

I paired it with the Hello Friend Bundle from @heroarts, added some tiny floral accents, a layered sentiment, and finished it off with a little twine detail for texture. 

I love when scraps force you to get creative because sometimes they turn into cards you’d never have planned from scratch 😂

Big bold sentiments and tiny florals? Say less 😍🌸 Big bold sentiments and tiny florals? Say less 😍🌸

I had so much fun creating this clean and colourful friendship card using the Hello Friend Clear Stamp & Die Bundle from @heroarts 💙 The “hello” makes such a statement while the little flowers soften everything perfectly.

Also… can we talk about that orange twine detail? It gives the whole card just the right amount of movement and texture without overwhelming the design.

This is definitely one of those cards that looks layered and detailed but comes together surprisingly quickly once you start building it up.

What colour combo would you try with this design? 👀

Obsessed with how elegant this monochromatic desig Obsessed with how elegant this monochromatic design turned out using the Gilded Glass Bundle from @concordand9th ✨

Keeping everything in those rich Peacock tones really lets the detail from the dies shine, and the gold splatter adds just the right amount of drama. Honestly, this bundle does all the hard work for you!

I also love how versatile this design could be — switch up the colours and you’d get a completely different vibe every time.

Would you keep it monochrome or add extra colours? 👀

I think this might be one of the most relatable se I think this might be one of the most relatable sentiments I’ve ever put on a card… because honestly, sometimes we really did just come for the cake 😂🎂

This card was created with the amazing Icing on the Cake Bundle from @concordand9th and I had so much fun leaning into a bold cartoon-style design with bright florals, a graphic sentiment, and all the celebration vibes.

One of my favourite things about this bundle is how customisable it is. You can make elegant cakes, cute birthday cards, or slightly cheeky designs like this one depending on your mood 😅

Would you keep the sentiment as is… or would you have gone even cheekier? 👀
