Watercolor Background Created with Classic Ink Refills

 It's nice to do something out of my comfort zone. I love the look of watercolor. I like to create watercolor backgrounds for my cards. After they dry, I stamp images or scenes on top. Watch my tutorial video and see how I create backgrounds. 

For my cards I'm sharing today, I used watercolor paper, classic ink refills and water painters. You can use regular paint brushes and water if you don't have the water painters. I like them because the tube handle holds water and it makes it easy to add water to my paper or ink. The stamps I used are retired. What stamps do you have in your collection that would work with watercolored backgrounds?

To create the backgrounds I used a piece of fluid 100 watercolor paper by Stampin' Up!® (3 1/2 x 5"). I squeezed a small amount of ink from various classic ink refills onto my glass mat. I added water to the background and then picked up ink off my glass mat with a water painter. I touched the ink to the wet paper and let the ink move around. You can watch this process in the video tutorial below. Once you're finished adding ink to your background, it needs to dry completely before you stamp anything on it. 

The background on this card was created with Balmy Blue, Misty Moonlight, Peach Pie, Timid Tiger, Cajun Craze, Calypso Coral, Crumb Cake and Mossy Meadow classic inks and a large water painter.  I love a good sunset and the colors I choose reminded me of a sunset we saw at the lake. 

I decided to recreate one of my favorite views at the lake- a small island. I used Crumb Cake and Mossy Meadow to watercolor a small island. After I dried my paper with my heat tool, I stamped the cluster of trees from Campology stamp set (retired) in Old Olive classic ink. I used a stamp positioner and stamped it several times. To fill in the trees a bit I used Mossy Meadow classic ink and a small water painter (brush) to add green in the leaves. I add Crumb Cake classic ink to the tree trunks.

For the water around my island, I used Balmy Blue and Misty Moonlight classic inks and a water painter. I kept the darker Misty Moonlight ink closer to the shore. The layer was adhered to a Secret Sea cardstock base (8 1/2 x 5 1/2" folded in half). You can add a white cardstock layer (3 3/4 x 5") on the inside with your message. I love how this turned out. You can see me make this card in the video below. I decided to leave it as is without a greeting. What occasion would you use this card for?

For my next card, I used less colors and created a stormy sky. I used Balmy Blue and Misty Moonlight classic ink refills and a large water painter brush. I left a little white area between the sky and my water. For the water I added more Misty Moonlight than Balmy Blue. I tried to create some dark areas to give the water movement. 

The lighthouse, boat and birds are from the Sailing Home stamp set (retired). After my background was dry, I stamped the birds in Secret Sea classic ink. The boat is stamped in Basic Gray classic ink and the lighthouse is stamped in Crumb Cake and Pecan Pie classic inks. The lighthouse is watercolored in with Crumb Cake and Pecan Pie classic inks.  Originally I used just browns but it seems too bright for the scene. So I went back after my card was done and added a little Basic Gray and Secret Sea classic inks to the lighthouse. The boat bottom is colored in with a Basic Gray watercolor pencil and the sails are colored with a white watercolor pencil. 

I dried the paper well before stamping the greeting from High Tide stamp set (retired). I used a stamp positioner to stamp the greeting in Secret Sea classic ink. The layer was adhered to a Cloud Cover cardstock base ( 8 1/2 x 5 1/2", folded in half).

I really enjoyed creating these cards live on my Facebook Coffee and a Card video. You can watch the replay below. 

Here's another card I created with sunset colors. I was a bit heavy handed when I added ink for the ground but I love how it turned out.  I like the shapes that are created when you watercolor. For this card I used the Campology stamp set (retired) and created the background just like I did for the card in the video. This background used Balmy Blue, Peach Pie, Calypso Coral, Crumb Cake and Mossy Meadow classic inks. You can use the refills or press a clean block into your ink pad to pick up ink. 

I hope you give this a try and create your own watercolor backgrounds.  Just make sure your layer is dry before you stamp your images. If it's wet, the ink may spread. Which may look really neat depending on what you want it to look like. 

You can find fluid 100 watercolor paper, classic ink pads, refills, watercolor pencils, and water painters in my online store. 

Thank you so much for stopping by my blog. I hope you're inspired to give a watercolor background a try. Please let me know in the comments which card is your favorite.

Faux Step Card with Cute as a Bug designer series paper

 

Fun folds can seem complicated. Today, I bring you the Faux Step Card. It has big WOW factor but is simple to make. I love breaking down fun folds and making them easier for you to copy. For this one, I used Cute as a Bug designer series paper by Stampin' Up!®. I just love all the little bugs and scenes on the paper. 

Instructions:

1. Cut card base. 4 1/4" x 11". Score at 1 1/2", 3" and 7". Fold smaller flap like an accordion fold. See video for tutorial. I used Mossy Meadow cardstock. Crease the folds well with a bone folder. 
2. Cut layer for card base (fits in the 4 1/2" x 4" space behind the step card base). 3 3/4" x 4". I used Petal Pink light two tone cardstock.
3. Cut Faux Step card base. 2 1/2" x 8 1/2". Score at 5 1/2". I used Cajun Craze cardstock. 
4. Cut faux step card base layer. 2 1/4" x 5 1/4". I used the checkered squares pattern. Adhere to the step cardstock base.
5.  Circle die cut layer. 2 1/2" or 2 3/4". Adjust to the size you need. I used the second largest circle from Spotlight on Nature dies and Basic White cardstock. There are several edge patterns to choose from in this set. 
6. Greeting layer. approximately 1/2" x 2". Adjust to your greeting. I used two different die cuts with Basic White cardstock for my cards. Smallest stitched rounded rectangle from Nested Essentials dies (hello friend from Sweet Bugs) and smallest narrow banner greeting label from Stylish Shapes dies (hello from Simply Said). Both greetings are stamped in Old Olive classic ink. 
7. Layers on die cut circles are cut from Cute as a Bug dsp. Fussy cut the characters you want with scissors and layer them on the white circle. 
8. Adhere Petal Pink layer to Mossy Meadow card base. 
9. Adhere dsp to faux step card base if you haven't already.
10. Adhere faux step card base to the bottom of the accordion fold. Apply a small amount of adhesive along the bottom of the step card base. Line it up with the bottom of the card base. Then apply a small amount of adhesive on the back of the top of the step card base. Fold it over and adhere to back of card. See tutorial video. 
11. Adhere bug scene to white circle die cut if you haven't already. 
12. Stamp greeting onto a layer of your choice.  For the card in the video I used the narrow stitched banner label and a few extra bugs I fussy cut from the dsp. 
13. Adhere circle die cut to card front. It will adhere to the step card layer and the bottom. Do not put adhesive on the areas that hang over or your card will not move and pop out to stand up. 
14. Adhere greeting layer with dimensionals. Be mindful if you put it in an area that hangs over the edge of the step card base. You don't want adhesive on any parts that hang over or the card will not stand up properly. 
15. Cut a Basic White cardstock or White Willow cardstock layer for the inside. 3 3/4" x 4". You can stamp this layer or use dsp to dress it up. I used a strip of the checkered square pattern. Adhere it to the layer and trim off any excess. Then adhere to the inside of your card. 

Have fun with this paper. The little bugs are so cute and there are tons you can cut and use from the paper. You can also get the coordinating Sweet Bugs bundle (stamps and dies) to create your own little bugs. Shop in my online store for this bundle and other greeting sets I used. 

Quick Measurements:

• Main Card Base: 4 1/4" x 11", scored at 1 1/2", 3" & 7"
• DSP/cardstock layer for main base: 3 3/4" x 4"
• Step Card Base: 2 1/2" x 8 1/2", scored at 5 1/2"
• DSP/cardstock layer for step base: 2 1/4" x 5 1/4"
• Circle layer: 2 1/2" or 2 3/4"
• Greeting layer: 1/2" x 2 3/4" (adjust for your greeting)

Grateful for you card with layered die cuts

 

Today, I'm sharing a simple card with layered die cuts. Designer Series Paper helps bring in some color for my background. Look through your die sets. Do some contain stand-alone dies that you can use for elements on a card? The flowers for this card were made with the Sweet Bugs dies. I die cut the stems, flower petals, middle (actually one of the berries) and a snail from Basic White cardstock. Then I added color with Stampin' Blends markers [dark Darling Duckling, Daffodil Delight, Mossy Meadow, light Gray Granite, Natural Tones 100 (deep), Natural Tones 300 (medium deep) and Natural Tones 500 (medium)]. You could use two tone or regular cardstock for this step. I used Basic White cardstock die cut with the stitched rounded rectangle from Nested Essentials dies to hold my flowers. 

The flag layers were created from the flag dies from Nested Essentials dies and Country Woods designer series paper by Stampin' Up!®. I used the second smallest with the Misty Moonlight patterned paper. Cut two and make it look longer by layering them behind the rectangle. For the smaller flag, I used the smallest flag die and a wood patterned paper. I also cut two of these. Adhere the flag pieces behind the rectangle. 

Adhere the flowers together with glue dots and then adhere on the white rectangle. Place the tiny snail with your take your pick tool putty end.  Adhere this layer onto a Thick Basic White cardstock base (5 1/2" x 8 1/2" scored at 4 1/4"). 

The greeting is from Amber Autumn stamp set by Stampin' Up!®. It's stamped in Basic Gray classic ink onto a Basic White cardstock die cut label banner from Stylish Shapes dies.  Adhere this to your card with stampin' dimensionals. 

You can leave your card blank for a message inside or use left over flag die cuts or flowers to decorate the inside. 

Here's a close-up of the flowers and the little snail. I love when Stampin' Up!® includes stand-alone dies in our die sets. Stand-alone means it doesn't coordinate with a stamp. These dies help you create unique layers and elements for your cards. Check out your stash and see what stand-alone dies you have. Use them to make some simple layered cards. 

You can add color to white cardstock die cuts with Stampin' Blends markers, Water Painters and Classic ink pads, Watercolor Pencils, Blending Brushes and Classic ink pads, or die cut from colored cardstock or two tone cardstock.  The possibilities are endless. 

I made this card on a Facebook live. Check out the video tutorial on my YouTube Channel. 

Thank you for stopping by and checking out my card. I hope you're inspired to use those extra stand-alone dies included in some of the Stampin' Up!® die sets.

Quick Cards with paper scraps

 Today, I'm sharing a few more cards made with paper scraps. I tend to collect loads of pieces of designer series papers. I grabbed my pack of Beautiful Gallery designer series paper by Stampin' Up!®. I have made a ton of cards with this beautiful paper and I am left with strips of scraps of various measurements (1/2", 1", 2", 3" etc). You can trim them down to any size. I like to make mine 5" and I work with whatever width they are. 

Mix and Match patterns and colors. I did tuck in a designer series paper strip from another pack on my Sending Love card. Nature Walk designer series paper (dsp) has some of the same colors as the Beautiful Gallery dsp so I used a strip that mixed well with my floral pattern. What papers do you have in your collection that you can mix and match?

                                                                                                                                                                           

My first card uses two patterns from Beautiful Gallery dsp and one pattern from Nature Walk dsp. The Secret Sea grid from Nature Walk mixed so well with the textured Cloud Cover pattern. The floral piece has bits of Mossy Meadow, Cloud Cover, Secret Sea and white. I adhered them on a thick Basic White cardstock base.

I cut down the 6" pieces to 5". The widths vary. I cut the floral piece down to 2" and adhered the left over piece on the inside of my card. 

"Sending Love" greeting is stamped on a scrap Basic White cardstock strip in Secret Sea classic ink. This greeting is from Fabulous Sayings stamp set. It's an exclusive stamp set you can opt to buy in January 2026. Every month there is a new Product of the Month and it's while supplies last. When you spend $75 you can buy the exclusive product of the month for $5. Grab it before it's gone. I love the handwriting look and the greetings are bigger size. 

My second card uses three patterns from Beautiful Gallery dsp. I trimmed the pieces to 5" and left the strips whatever width they were. I'm guessing 1" to 2" pieces. I used Mossy Meadow cardstock for my base and light Basic Beige two tone cardstock inside.

I put the floral pattern in the middle to change it up and then stamped my greeting directly onto it. The greeting is from Beautiful Motifs stamp set and stamped in Mossy Meadow classic ink. I used a stamp positioner to stamped the greeting. It allows me to restamp if it doesn't stamp well or needs reinked. 

Stampin' Up!® is releasing a new Stampin' Positioner tool. Demonstrators were able to pre-order this product before it's available to customers.

Create card elements made from die cut paper scraps

Do you have designer series paper left over from card making sessions and you don't know what to do with it? Well- I can help! Today, I'm sharing some ideas on how to use up those patterned paper and cardstock scraps. I find myself swimming in scraps of beautiful papers and favorite color cardstocks. You can't throw it away- right?! 

When my scrap pile starts to overflow, I use small dies in various shapes and spend some time just die cutting my larger pieces of scraps. Some of my favorite dies to use are the smallest stitched circle and smallest banner from Stylish Shapes dies by Stampin' Up!® and the smallest stitched flag from Nested Essentials dies by Stampin' Up!®. I use these die sets quite a bit. You can use the next size up for your shapes as well depending on the size of your scraps. I keep my die cuts sorted by shape if I have a bunch of different patterned papers and I also keep cardstock die cuts sorted by color. Then when the ideas pop into my head, I can go grab my pieces and jump in. Let's jump in and see what I have created. 

Here are the first two cards I created. My sweet little robot valentine card uses the smallest stitched circle from the Stylish Shapes dies. I die cut them from Secret Sea two tone cardstock (light and dark) and a red polka dot patterned paper (retired from an older Christmas designer series paper pack- sorry the name escapes me). My robots are stamped in Secret Sea classic ink and colored with Stampin' Blends markers in Cloud Cover and Cherry Cobbler. The circles are adhered on the back of my stamped Basic White layer. You can line them up straight or make them overlap and vary.  The robots are from Nuts & Bolts (retired) and I love them so. 

My second card I made on my Snow Day Facebook live. I used the new stamp set- Sweet Bugs. Aren't they adorable?! For the die cut element, I used Secret Sea two tone cardstock (light and dark) and a patterned paper from Timeless Plaid. This could be a valentine's day card or a just because, pick me up card. The papers were cut with the smallest stitched flag die from Nested Essentials dies. I stamped the images in Secret Sea classic ink and colored with Stampin' Blends markers in Cloud Cover, Moody Mauve (retired but matched the patterned paper best), Mossy Meadow and light Secret Sea. I love using non-traditional color combos for valentines. I have all boys and I like to make cards that fit the recipients and what they like instead of the commercialized red, pink and white.  What are your favorite colors to use for valentines- do you stick to traditional colors or use non-traditional colors?

Flag banner die cut element from smallest stitched flag die from Nested Essentials dies

I decided to create another Sweet Bugs card with the stitched flag die. Instead of a straight line, I did the flags layered wonky. What do you think? I also switched out the pattern for a plaid from Timeless Plaid designer series paper. 

There are so many possibilities with scraps and dies. I tend to do circle and flag/banner elements. Check out some more cards below. Products used are listed under each card.

Take to the Sky designer series paper (Smoky Slate plaid, retired), thick Basic White cardstock, Secret Sea two tone cardstock, Adventurous Sky stamp set (retired), Secret Sea and Smoky Slate classic inks, Cloud Cover Stampin' Blends markers, Stylish Shapes dies 

thick Basic White cardstock, Secret Sea two tone cardstock, Red Polka dot designer series paper (retired Sweetest Christmas paper pack), Sweet Bugs stamp set, Reason to Celebrate stamp set, Stampin' Blends markers in Cloud Cover, Cherry Cobbler, light Gray Granite and light Secret Sea, Secret Sea and Cherry Cobbler classic inks

Secret Sea and Basic White cardstocks, Secret Sea and Cloud Cover two tone cardstocks, Outdoor Adventure stamp set, Secret Sea and Cloud Cover classic inks, Stylish Shapes dies, sponge dauber to create two tone ink effect

Beautiful Gallery designer series paper, Prayers & Promises stamp set, Secret Sea two tone cardstock, Basic Beige cardstock, Stylish Shapes dies, Secret Sea classic ink 

I love using different dies to create elements for my cards. This is a great way to use up scraps of patterned paper. What are your favorite dies to use? 

You can watch the replay of the Sweet Bugs card from my Coffee and a Card Facebook live.

Got Scraps? Create card layers and backgrounds with scraps

 Got Scraps?

If you're like me, you end up with tons of scrap pieces of cardstock and patterned paper after a crafting session. Well- what do we do with those? Every piece of designer series paper and cardstock is precious. We can't possibly throw them out- right? Today, I'm sharing some ideas for those scraps. Don't let them pile up- make them into beautiful background layers or use them to add some texture and interest to your layers. 

Let's take that pile of scraps and make some cards! I usually keep 1/4" strips. I store them with the paper packs they came in. I keep cardstock scraps that are large enough to die cut in a separate spot all together. 

One thing  I love to do with strips of patterned paper and cardstock is create a strip background. This layer becomes the focal point of your card. It is easy to create but has that wow factor. 

Start with a piece of cardstock in the size you want your layer. I typically use two different sizes. Feel free to change it up and make it your own.  You can use 5 1/4 x 4" or 5 x 3 3/4". The one on this card was trimmed down a bit on either side after I was done adhering the strips. It ended up 5 1/4 x 3 3/4". 

Sort out the strips you may want to use. I cut down some larger strips so they were 1/4" or 1/2". You can use varying sizes. The white strip was a little larger. I kept it that way so I could stamp my greeting in that area. I like to line them up before adding adhesive to see how the layout and designs will look together. 

Then start adding adhesive to your base cardstock piece. Place your first strip. For this card, I placed where I wanted my greeting first on a diagonal. Then I adhered the rest of the strips above and below that strip. Take your time and make sure there's no space between each strip. I prefer to use liquid glue as it gives me a little "wiggle" room before the glue dries. I can adjust my strips before they are stuck fast. It's ok if they hang over the edge. Once you have all your strips placed, run your hand over the entire piece to make sure all of the strips are stuck down. Then, flip it over and use scissors or your trimmer to cut off the parts that are hanging over. I use these pieces to fill in the corners if I need more of a certain pattern or color cardstock. Once you have your layer completed, trim it down to the size you want or just adhere it to your card base.  You can embellish it with die cut images, a die cut shape with greeting or other embellishments like gems or dots.  I created this card on my Facebook live. To see the video scroll down or visit my YouTube Channel- Stamp and Create with Beth. 

I used Nature Walk designer series papers and two tone cardstocks (Pecan Pie, Crumb Cake, Cloud Cover and Secret Sea). I love the two tone because you get a dark side and light side. This helps me stretch my coordinating colors. The gears are from Gears & Textures dies cut from dark Basic Beige two tone cardstock. Greeting is from Simply Said stamp set and stamped in Secret Sea classic ink. 

This card was created the same way as the other strip background. I adhered the strips in a straight line instead of diagonal. The patterned papers are from Lovely Blossoms designer series paper. I had these strips left over after completing the Currently Loving Scrapbooking Workshop kit that features this paper. Great way to use up my scraps. I also used some left over two tone cardstock in Secret Sea, Lost Lagoon and Crumb Cake. 

The base layer on this card is 5 1/4 x 4". I finished off my card with a greeting stamped on a round rectangle die cut from Nested Essential Dies. It's from a new stamp set- Sweet Bugs. I stamped it in Secret Sea classic ink. 

Some of my strips are 1". I like the look when you vary the sizes. 

Here are some other ways I used strip scraps.

You can use fun techniques like paper piercing to add texture to your cardstock strips. For the hello card, I used Lovely Florals stamp set. I stamped the floral image several times and colored with Stampin' Blends markers. Then I stamped "hello". I used the outside edge of a rounded rectangle die from Nested Essentials dies as a guide and pierced holes into my layer with a Take Your Pick tool and stampin' pierce mat. This is a wonderful way to add texture to any layers or cardstock pieces. I also pierced a line of holes into the Pecan Pie two tone cardstock above and below my stamped layer. I did all the piercing before assembling the card. Check out the detail close-up. 

For my birthday cad, I used strips of Lovely Blossoms dsp above and below my greeting strip. This is a great way to dress up a simple card with a greeting layer. This elegant pattern with Secret Sea and Cloud Cover diamonds is perfect to frame many greetings. 

You can use bigger scraps to create simple layers for your cards. Add a greeting stamped on a die cut and you're all finished. Write a special message in your card and it's ready to head out to the recipient. For this card, I had some bigger scraps left over from the Currently Loving Scrapbooking Workshop kit. I love when that happens! The Secret Sea diamond patterned paper was cut at 2 3/4" so I trimmed the length down to 5". Then I had a piece of the Lost Lagoon striped patterned paper. It was 3/4" so I trimmed it down to 5" long and put it next to the diamond patterned paper on my card base. You could also use different lengths and overlap the pieces.  I loved these patterns together. I stamped the large hello greeting from Lovely Florals in Lost Lagoon classic ink and die cut with the short, wide stitched banner die from Stylish Shapes. Don't be afraid to leave white space like I did on the right side of the card front. I like to let my die cuts hang over a bit into that space. 

Do you have some bigger scrap pieces hanging out? Which ones work well together and can layer on your card base?

I hope you enjoyed all the ideas for your paper scraps. You can keep it simple or really dress them up. Mix and match and have some fun. I am in love with the designs of the Nature Walk designer series paper. It may be my favorite yet. I've also used it with a variety of stamp sets and the Gears & Textures bundle. 

Check out the tutorial on this diagonal background card.

10 cards with Nature Walk designer series paper- One Sheet Wonder with 6 x 12" paper

 It's the beginning of the year and everyone could use a card restock. One sheet wonders are great for making a set of cards and using up patterned paper. Today, I'm sharing a new one sheet wonder and a set of 10 cards. I used the new Nature Walk designer series papers. I think they're my favorite patterns and I think they're great for a variety of cards. I paired the patterns with several different stamps and themes. 

The patterns of this paper are gorgeous. For this set of cards, I picked a Crumb Cake grid pattern and a Mossy Meadow textured pattern. I found they go well with nature elements as well as whimsical cards with gears. What would you pair with these patterns?

I started with a 6x12" sheet of each pattern. I cut each sheet into pieces for 5 cards. You can mix and match the layers or use one piece of patterned paper per card. I choose to use one piece and layer up my cards with die cuts and stamped images. You can shop all the designer series papers in my online store. See details below on how to get a free pdf tutorial.
