This card was so easy to make! I started by stamping the In the Garden Background 5x7 Stamp onto a piece of gray cardstock using Alloy Hybrid Ink for a tone on tone look. Then I used Raven Hybrid Ink to stamp three rectangles from the Puzzle Frames 6x8 Stamps onto white cardstock and stamped the tulips from the Daybreak Puzzle Scenes 6x8 Stamps into each of the rectangles. I used a handful of Copic Markers to color one of the scenes and left the other two plain. I used scissors to cut out each of the shapes.

I staggered the three rectangles onto the stamped background panel and finished the card with a sentiment from the Fruit Tree 5x7 Stamps. That's it! 

*RING RING* - Time to Create an Easy Letterpress Card!

Ring ring! I used the Victorian Phone Impress-ion Press + Foil Plates to create a card with an easy letterpress technique. This card features a cheerful yellow background with gray accents, giving it a modern twist on vintage style. I added the playful “ring ring” sentiment to tie everything together, making it perfect for a fun hello or just-because note. Let's check it out!

This card was quite simple to make and just required some easy letterpress-ing and die cutting. I started by using my BetterPress Platform and Alloy Hybrid Ink to press the image from the Victorian Phone Impress-ion Press + Foil Plates into an A2 Cotton Watercolor Panel. Then, I used the Victorian Phone Coordinating Dies to cut out the image. I cut some pale yellow cardstock using the largest die from the Pinpoint Rectangle Dies as well as the third largest die from the Mixed Postage Rectangle Dies. I also used my paper trimmer to cut a piece of white cardstock to layer between the two yellow panels to create easy dimension. 

I wanted a quick, easy, but super cute sentiment, so I letterpressed "ring ring" from the Victorian Phone Impress-ion Press + Foil Plates into the smaller yellow die-cut panel with Raven Hybrid Ink. I grabbed a white A2 card base and layered all of the die-cut pieces onto the card with a mixture of liquid adhesive and foam tape. And that's it!
