If you love bold colour combinations and lots of lovely texture, today’s cards are for you! I’m sharing two bright and cheerful card designs created using the Sweet Jar stamp and punch bundle, where the focus is all about playing with colour and texture to create cards that really pop.

These designs are perfect for birthdays, celebrations, or simply sending happy mail, and they’re a great example of how changing colour palettes can completely transform the same layout.

Colour and Texture as the Star of the Show

Both cards feature backgrounds made up of various coloured cardstock panels, all embossed using the Forever Plaid 3D embossing folder. This embossing folder adds instant depth and interest, making it ideal for adding texture without overwhelming the design.

Using multiple colours together creates a patchwork-style background that feels playful and modern, while the embossed plaid pattern ties everything together beautifully.

Sweet Jar Focal Point

The focal point on each card is the adorable Sweet Jar image, stamped and then punched out using the coordinating punch. This bundle makes it so easy to create clean, professional-looking focal images with minimal effort.

The jar is mounted onto a layered panel to help it stand out against the textured background, drawing the eye straight to the centre of the card. Small embellishments are scattered across the card fronts to add a subtle sparkle and extra dimension.

Card One – Bright and Fresh Colour Palette

The first card features a vibrant mix of:

  • Melon Mambo
  • Lemon Lolly
  • Soft Sea Foam
  • Coastal Cabana
  • Lost Lagoon

This colour combination feels fresh, fun, and perfect for uplifting cards. The bold Melon Mambo panel grounds the design, while the softer shades balance everything out beautifully.

The sentiment is taken from the Greetings for You ephemera pack, making it quick and easy to finish the card while keeping the design clean and uncluttered.

Card Two – Soft Yet Playful Tones- Retiring 24 – 26 In colours.

The second card uses a softer but still playful colour palette:

  • Petunia Pop
  • Peach Pie
  • Pretty in Pink
  • Summer Splash
  • Shy Shamrock

This combination creates a warm, happy feel that works wonderfully for congratulatory cards. Using the same layout as the first card really highlights how different colour choices can give a completely new look and feel.

Again, the sentiment comes from the Greetings for You ephemera pack, proving just how versatile these ready-made sentiments are.

Why This Design Works

Using one layout with two different colour palettes is a fantastic way to:

  • Speed up your cardmaking
  • Use up cardstock scraps
  • Create cohesive sets of cards
  • Experiment with colour without overthinking the design

The Forever Plaid 3D embossing folder adds just enough texture to keep the backgrounds interesting, while the Sweet Jar image provides a fun and recognisable focal point.

What is the Difference Between Heat and Dry Embossing?

What is the Difference Between Heat and Dry Embossing? – Christmas Greenery – Crafting with Ashee – Independent Stampin’ Up! Demo – Lincoln UK.

Embossing is a wonderful way to add texture, depth, and a professional finish to your handmade cards. In today’s project, I’ll be showing you both heat embossing and dry embossing, using the beautiful Traditions of Christmas Suite from Stampin’ Up!

Dry Embossing

For the background, I’ve used the Peaceful Greenery Embossing Folder, which creates a delicate foliage frame around the central design. This technique is known as dry embossing. It’s achieved by running cardstock through an embossing folder with your die-cutting machine. The result is a raised (embossed) texture that instantly adds interest and a touch of elegance to any card design.

Heat embossing

For the focal image, I’ve used the Christmas Greenery stamp set and gold heat embossed the design. Heat embossing involves stamping your image with a sticky embossing ink, sprinkling on embossing powder, and then using a heat tool to melt the powder. The result is a beautiful, shiny, and raised effect that really stands out.

watercolouring

Once the image was heat embossed, I coloured it using Stampin’ Up! ink pads and Water Painters. You need to use Fluid 100 watercolour paper. Basic White cardstock cannot cope with water. The colours are Real Red and Garden Green, perfect for traditional festive florals. The sentiments—“Merry Christmas” and “Season’s Greetings”—are from the Greetings For You Ephemera Pack, which coordinates perfectly with this suite.

To finish off, I added some sparkle using the Traditional Sparkling Sequins, also from the Traditions of Christmas Suite. These sequins bring just the right amount of shimmer to the finished cards, catching the light beautifully.

Both embossing techniques complement each other perfectly—dry embossing adds texture and structure, while heat embossing brings shine and definition. Together, they create elegant and festive cards that are sure to impress anyone this Christmas season.

Revisiting Watercolour Pencils – Perfect for Easy Colouring

Revisiting Watercolour Pencils – Perfect for Easy Colouring – Framed Scenes – Crafting with Ashee – Independent Stampin’ Up! Demo – Lincoln UK

Sometimes the simplest tools give the most beautiful results, and today I’m sharing two cards that revisit a classic favourite—watercolour pencils. They’re perfect for easy colouring and give a soft, artistic look to your stamped images.

For these projects, I used the Framed Scenes stamp set with Fluid 100 watercolour paper as my base. The textured watercolour paper really makes a difference when blending, helping the colours move smoothly while keeping that lovely hand-painted effect.

Creating the Focal Images

Each card features one of the detailed scenic images from the Framed Scenes set. I stamped the designs with Stazon onto the Fluid 100 paper and then reached for both Watercolour Pencil Assortment 1 and 2 to add colour.

To blend the pencils, I used a Water Painter, which instantly transforms the pencil strokes into soft watercolour washes. I love how versatile this method is—you can keep things light and sketchy or layer up for bolder, richer colour.

On one card, I coloured the peaceful stone bridge scene, and on the other, the charming treehouse. Both images are framed beautifully with a faux gold frame for extra shine and impact.

Simple Sentiments, Big Impact

I kept the sentiments simple—“thinking of you” and “hello”—so the detailed watercoloured images remain the star of the show. Sometimes less is more, especially when your focal image is this pretty.

measurements

  • Pecan Pie 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

Why Try Watercolour Pencils Again?

If it’s been a while since you’ve used your watercolour pencils, I’d really encourage you to bring them back out. They’re:

  • Easy to use, even for beginners.
  • Portable and mess-free.
  • Perfect for creating a quick watercoloured look without needing lots of supplies.

They’re also ideal for stamped images with fine detail, like those in the Framed Scenes set, because you can add colour exactly where you want it before blending.

Quick and Simple Elegant Card – Extraordinary Flora

Quick and Simple Elegant Card – Extraordinary Flora – Spotlight on Nature – Crafting with Ashee – Independent Stampin’ Up! Demo – UK

If you’re short on time but still want to make something stylish and heartfelt, this project might be just what you’re looking for. Today’s card showcases the Extraordinary Flora stamp, die, and washi tape set—an absolute dream for anyone who loves floral crafting without the fuss of colouring.

Washi Tape Magic

The stunning florals on this card are all from the coordinating Extraordinary Flora washi tape. I cut a section of the washi tape that aligns with the large matching die, adhered it to Basic White cardstock for extra stability, and then die cut it using the coordinating die. One pass through your die-cutting machine gives you a full bouquet of beautiful flowers and foliage, ready to arrange.

Elegant Details with Gold and Texture

To create a focal point, I used one of the gold decorative circles from the Spotlight on Nature die set. This adds just the right amount of shine and elevates the look of the card without overwhelming the florals.

The background is embossed using the Exposed Brick embossing folder, which adds subtle but interesting texture. It gives the card a grounded, tactile feel while still keeping it clean and sophisticated.

A Finishing Touch

The sentiment “All the Best” comes from the Saying Something ephemera pack, making it quick and easy to add a polished, professional greeting to your project. A few coordinating pearls finish the look perfectly and add a little extra shine.

This design is ideal for many occasions—whether you’re wishing someone luck, celebrating a milestone, or just sending a warm hello.

Birthday Sunshine Card – Simple Design – Paper Tags Bundle – Crafting with Ashee – Independent Stampin’ Up! Demo – Lincoln UK

Today I’m sharing a bright and joyful card that’s perfect for sending birthday cheer! This handmade design features the Paper Hugs stamp and die bundle from Stampin’ Up!, and it’s all about clean layers, fun textures, and happy vibes.

Birthday Sunshine Card - Simple Design - Paper Tags Bundle - Crafting with Ashee - Independent Stampin' Up! Demo - Lincoln UK
Birthday Sunshine Card – Simple Design – Paper Tags Bundle – Crafting with Ashee – Independent Stampin’ Up! Demo – Lincoln UK

What makes this card extra special? It showcases three of the five new Stampin’ Up! colours:

  • Darling Duckling – a sunny, rich yellow that brings instant warmth
  • Cloud Cover – a soft, versatile grey-blue that pairs beautifully with…
  • Secret Sea – a deeper, moody blue that adds a grounding contrast

I started with an embossed white panel for subtle texture, layered it over a Secret Sea card base, and then added two large angled tags in Cloud Cover and Secret Sea for visual interest. The standout element is the stamped sentiment tag in Darling Duckling, reading “May your day be filled with sunshine & laughter” – a lovely, heartfelt birthday message.

A touch of iridescent ribbon, a few scattered embellishments, and some cute die-cut hearts finish it all off. This design is simple, but the layered elements and pop of colour make it feel thoughtful and unique.

I love floral cards. This is the Painted Lavender bundle. It evokes the lavender fields of Provence. Unfortunately, I have bad hay fever, so I must admire it from afar. The background felt sparse, so I used the Forever Plaid embossing folder to add texture and interest without detracting from the focal image.

Instead of stamping a sentiment I used one from the Saying Something ephemera pack. You don’t have to handstamp everything on the card, it gives added interest to mix and match, do you agree?

I love the simplicity of this Valentine’s card. The cardstock is Melon Mambo, but the colour does not show up very well on camera. Heat embossing is a good way to get text to pop on coloured cardstock. The stamping and dies are from the Hearts of Elegance bundle. This is a current online exclusive. I’ve used the Cute Crochet 3D embossing folder to give interest in the background.
