If you’re short on time but still want to create a beautiful handmade card, this quick layered tag card is just the project for you! Featuring the Paper Tags stamp and die set from Stampin’ Up!, this card design is simple yet striking—perfect for beginners and experienced crafters alike.

I’ve created two bright and cheerful versions of this card to show how easy it is to change up the feel just by switching the colour palette. Both cards use the same layout but offer a different vibe, proving just how versatile the Paper Tags bundle can be.

Coastal Cabana & Melon Mambo – A Fresh and Fun Combo

For the first card, I used a soft Coastal Cabana background paired with the vibrant pop of Melon Mambo for the tag border. The stamped sentiment really stands out in green, and I added the tiny heart leftover from die-cutting the tag for a coordinated embellishment. The floral background was lightly inked to keep things soft and pretty, letting the layered tag take centre stage.

Calypso Coral & Lost Lagoon – Warm and Tropical

The second card features a warmer blend of Calypso Coral flowers layered over a Lost Lagoon base. I kept the layout the same but swapped the ink colours on the sentiment to match the theme. Again, I reused the heart from the die-cut as a little detail on the tag—no waste, and it ties everything together so nicely!

Finishing Touches

Both cards are finished with the stunning silver and white shimmer ribbon tied through the top of the tag. It adds just the right touch of elegance and sparkle. A few adhesive pearls scattered across the card front bring a little extra dimension and polish.

These cards come together in no time and are a great way to make use of your sentiment stamps and background florals. Whether you’re crafting a birthday card, a thank-you note, or just sending a little cheer, this layout will serve you well again and again.

A Mix of Layers and Texture

What really makes this card pop is the mix of bold patterns and soft florals. The black and white print adds a modern contrast to the watercolour blooms, while the turned-down corner draws the eye and invites curiosity.

I’ve added a delicate silver ribbon bow to emphasise the fold, and layered up one of the flowers to create depth. The sentiment “Hello” from the Sunshine Vibes set is stamped in a Strawberry Slush / Summer Splash to match the card base and surrounding florals—fresh, fun, and full of colour!

    • 10cm X 8cm

Why You’ll Love This Design

  • Great for any occasion – just swap the sentiment!
  • Add your own insert – tuck in a personal message, voucher or keepsake.
  • Use up patterned paper – this is a great way to show off double-sided paper.
  • Easy to recreate – once you learn the fold, you’ll want to make it again and again!

A Simple Layout That Shines

Both cards use the same layout—a centred sentiment panel on a beautiful background—but with different colour schemes and papers to create two distinct looks.

  • Card 1 features Misty Moonlight and Cloud Cover cardstock paired with the soft florals from the Flowering Meadow designer series paper (DSP). I added the Silver and White Sheer ribbon and rhinestones for a touch of sparkle.
  • Card 2 goes for a vibrant feel with Gorgeous Grape and Fresh Freesia, paired with the delicate textures of the Perennial Lavender DSP.

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.

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.

This card would be perfect for any birthday, especially for someone who loves a handmade touch and a cheerful message.

I’d love to hear what you think of this colour combo!
