If you’re looking for a card that combines bold design with a simple technique, this project might be just what you need! Today I’m sharing a cheerful and modern card featuring the Sunshine Vibes stamp set, paired with coordinating Boho Vibes paper. The clean layout and pop of colour make it ideal for sending a positive message to someone special.

Creating Impact with a Few Key Elements

This card focuses on a few thoughtful touches to make it stand out:

  • A strip of patterned paper from the Boho Vibes collection adds a fresh, contemporary feel.
  • I used the Fancy Border dies to add a decorative edge – a great way to bring texture without clutter.
  • The sentiment “Sending Good Vibes” is framed using the Stylish Shapes dies, and I used partial die cutting to give it a custom fit that really draws the eye.

The colours are bright and happy, with that sunshine theme carried through the stamped background. I’ve added a few subtle embellishments for sparkle, but the overall look stays clean and unfussy.

Techniques to Try

If you’re new to partial die cutting, don’t worry – it’s easier than it sounds! In the accompanying YouTube tutorial, I’ll walk you through the process step by step, so you can recreate this design with confidence.

Using border dies to create interesting edges is another technique worth experimenting with. You can transform any card base into something eye-catching with just a single pass through your die-cutting machine.

Measurements

  • Daffodil Delight Cardstock – A6 Card Base – This is an A4 sheet cut in half and then folded in half.
  • Basic White Cardstock – 14.35cm X 10cm X 2 pieces
  • Boho Vibes designer series paper (DSP) – 14.35cm X 7cm.

Perfect for Beginners and Experienced Crafters

Whether you’re just getting started or looking for ways to use your stash more creatively, this card is a great example of how simple design choices can have a big impact. Mix and match your papers and sentiments to personalise it further.

Perfect for Small Treats or Table Favours

These cute gift boxes are just the right size for small treats, party favours, or even a little surprise for someone special. The milk carton-style design adds a playful twist while maintaining an elegant and polished appearance. Whether you’re prepping for a birthday party, thank you gifts, or just because, this versatile design has you covered.

Mixing Colour with Pattern

I’ve paired Strawberry Slush with bold Secret Sea and white floral patterns for a striking contrast, and Secret Sea (used on the alternative box in the video) with Strawberry Slush brings a soft, calming tone that’s equally beautiful. Adding coordinated ribbons and simple layered sentiment circles finishes the look with charm and polish.

How to Create a Triple-Layered Stamped Card – Tutorial

How to Create a Triple-Layered Stamped Card – Tutorial – Impressions Abloom – Crafting with Ashee – Independent Stampin’ Up! Demo – UK

Today, I’m sharing a beautifully layered card that features one of my favourite new releases – the Impressions Abloom stamp and die bundle. For this project, I focused solely on the stamp set to create a striking triple-layered stamped card using a technique that looks intricate but is surprisingly easy to achieve.

This design is perfect for sending a heartfelt message of appreciation, and the layered effect helps the florals pop. I’ve paired bold florals and foliage with subtle matting for a clean and professional finish. If you’ve never tried this technique before, you’re in for a treat.

Stamping with the Pretty Floral Stamp Set

To begin, I cut three pieces of Basic White cardstock in graduating sizes and lightly adhered them together with a repositionable adhesive. This allowed me to stamp across all three layers at once, creating a seamless floral design that flows naturally from one panel to the next.

For the first card, the flowers were stamped in Pretty in Pink and Strawberry Slush, with the centres in Blackberry Bliss to add depth and contrast. For the foliage, I used Soft Sea Foam as a base layer and added Garden Green to bring in rich detail and dimension. I created the second card using a monochromatic colour palette. I used Coastal Cabana and Pretty Peacock for the florals and Pool Party and Lost Lagoon for the foliage.

Once the stamping was complete, I matted each layer with Secret Sea / Pretty Peacock cardstock to create crisp borders.

Measurements

  • Secret Sea / Pretty Peacock Cardstock – A6 Card Base – This is an A4 sheet cut in half and then folded in half.
  • Basic White Cardstock:
    • 14.35cm X 10cm
    • 12.35cm X 8cm
    • 10.35cm X 6cm
  • Secret Sea / Pretty Peacock Cardstock:
    • 12.85cm X 8.5cm
    • 10.85cm X 6.5cm

A Finishing Touch

To complete the card, I added a sentiment that reads “I appreciate you” in Strawberry Slush ink. A few adhesive gems scattered around the card front gave it some bling without overpowering the design.

This triple-layering technique is a fantastic way to showcase your stamps and create an eye-catching focal point. It’s also very versatile—just swap out the colours and sentiment to suit any occasion.

Cute Card to Accompany a Homemade Baked Gift.

Cute Card to Accompany a Homemade Baked Gift. – Sweet Jar – Crafting with Ashee – Independent Stampin’ Up! Demo – Lincoln UK

Cute Card to Accompany a Homemade Baked Gift. – Sweet Jar – Crafting with Ashee – Independent Stampin’ Up! Demo – Lincoln UK

If you’re like me, you know that a handmade gift deserves a handmade card! Today I’m sharing a cute card idea that’s perfect for pairing with a batch of homemade biscuits, fudge or any sweet treat. I created this card using the adorable Sweet Jar stamp and punch bundle from Stampin’ Up! I love how it turned out!

A Sweet Design for a Sweet Gift

For the background, I chose a soft blue gingham paper from the Timless Plaid designer series paper (DSP). It reminds me of a cosy kitchen tablecloth, perfect for a baking-themed card. I layered that onto a bright, cheerful Melon Mambo cardstock to make everything pop.

The main focal point is the jar from the Sweet Jar bundle, stamped and cut out with a coordinating punch. I do love punches. Don’t you? I filled it with a vibrant bunch of stamped melon mambo sweets, perfect for sharing a little love! The jar is tied off with a twine bow for an extra touch of rustic charm, and I added a white ribbon to one side for extra texture and sweetness.

Details That Make a Difference

One of my favourite parts of this card is the beautiful stitched circle die behind the jar. This is from the Spotlight on Nature set. I’m so glad it carried over. The tiny cutouts around the edge add such a delicate, handmade feel — it frames the jar beautifully without overwhelming the design.

To finish it off, I added a few silver pearls scattered across the card for a little sparkle and shine. They pick up the light so nicely and give the card just the right touch of elegance.

The sentiment, “for you, a little treat,” couldn’t be more perfect for a gift tag card like this!

Measurements

  • Thick Basic White Cardstock – A6 Card Base – This is an A4 sheet cut in half and then folded in half.
  • Melon Mambo Cardstock – 14.35cm X 10cm
  • Timeless Plaid designer series paper (DSP) – 13.85cm X 9.5cm

Perfect for Any Occasion

Whether you’re gifting homemade biscuits, some honeycomb, or a jar of jam, this card is the perfect finishing touch. Imagine handing over a slice of cake with this handmade card — it’s a guaranteed way to make someone feel extra special.

Tip: You can easily customise the colours to match the treats you’re gifting or the season — think red and green for Christmas, pastels for spring, or rich oranges and browns for Autumn!

Ink Blending Tips for a Seamless Background

I used ink blending for this card to create a soft, seamless background. Here’s my top tip:
Take your time and use a light hand. It’s easier to build up the colour gradually than to remove it if it gets too dark.

I typically use small blending brushes for precision, but any size works—just layer the colour until you achieve the look you want.

As we near the end of the annual catalogue I go through my stamp shelves and see what stamps I’ve used and which have hardly seen ink. The Charming Duck Pond bundle is one which I’ve only used a couple of times.

I wanted to use it again before it perhaps retires. This card is CASED from the annual catalogue. What is casing you may ask. Case means to copy and share everything. There is nothing wrong with casing an idea from the catalogue but do give credit to your source idea.

The paper is called Toadstool Gardens. For every qualifying purchase, you can choose a free item from the Sale-a-Bration (SAB) catalogue, and this was one of mine. It is bright, vibrant and fun.

You can follow me on Facebook, Pinterest and Instagram. I also have a Facebook Group where we share crafty projects and chat about all things crafty. I would love you to join and share your creation with us.

I’ve run an online card club each month in my Facebook Group. We make three cards and a 3D project each month. It’s lots of fun and I would love for you to join us. All the details can be found here.
