Just Because…and Just Beautiful

04/29/2025

This vibrant “just because” card features products from the You Are My Favorite release by @SimonSaysStamp 🎨 I watercolored the embossed florals with liquid watercolors and added a whole lot of splatter—white and black—for an artsy, expressive finish. Bold, bright, and perfect for sending a little sunshine! #SSSYouAreMyFavorite

Bold blooms, soft vibes 🌸 This thank you card features no-line watercolor lilies from Simon Hurley’s Heartfelt Blooms Collection for Spellbinders. With textured layers, a scalloped tag, and sweet little details like twine + clear drops, it’s a fresh way to say “thanks!” 💗

Salvaged Heart

🎨✨ Fun artistic technique! ✨🎨
I tried something new with this card design using the @teamspellbinders Stamp & Die of the Month and Embossing Folder of the Month—and I love the results! 💛

For the colorful background, I scribbled Tim Holtz Watercolor Pencils directly onto the embossing folder, spritzed some watercolor paper with water, and ran it through my die-cutting machine. The result? A artistically blended, textured design with an organic watercolor effect! 🎨🌸

I kept the rest of the card simple to let the background shine—just a dimensional heart, a little twine, and a crisp sentiment to finish it off. Sometimes, trying a new technique leads to the best surprises!
