Today I’m sharing two quick and easy cards created with products from the March 2026 Release collection. For my first card I used Clematis Layering Die Set. Let me assure you, that’s the easiest and most realistic-looking paper flower I’ve ever had the pleasure of making!

I die-cut all the elements from white cardstock and simply blended some Fresh Dye Inks to bring them to life. I mixed Purple Wine with Deep Iris for the petals. For the green parts, I used Bamboo, Olive, and Moss from the Tropical Forest Fresh Dye Ink Set.

I assembled all the elements and gently curled the petals and leaves to give them a more realistic look. To finish the card I added a tiny sentiment from the Leafscape Stamp Set.

For my second card, I used the Stencil Art: Styled Backgrounds Layering Stencil Set (6-in-1), which features three stylish hand-drawn designs.

For the background, I stencilled a chic linear pattern with Moss Fresh Dye Ink. I thought it would be fun to combine it with a floral design, so I added a smaller panel stencilled with the whimsical floral field stencil.



For the second pattern, I mixed Deep Iris with Nimbus, along with Olive and Moss Fresh Dye Inks. To finish the card, I added a bold HELLO sentiment from the Craft Your Life Project Kit: Garden Gala Stamp Set, popped up with Black Instant Dimension Foam Tape.

That’s it from me today! Your next stop is Cathy Zielske. You can find the full line up below.
Have a great day!
