Welcome Home Storybook Box!

Hello and Welcome!

Watch video tutorial here!

Today we will be creating a pretty scene using the brand-new Ai Storybook Template Die Set (6121) and Ai Thinking of Home – Storybook Set (6116). You will need the box die set to create this 3D diorama design…this is sold separately. Then you can purchase the add-on stamp scene that you like the best!

The ornament box can be used as a 3D diorama design like we will be creating today however it can also be used to create a shaker box design! All of the dies are included to create the box and the layers needed for the inside of the design. There is also a tab die that can be used to hang this fun ornament and there is a small tag die as well.

Let’s get started by stamping, coloring and die-cutting all of the little pieces in this tranquil scene. For the coloring we will be using the Zig Clean Color Real Brush Pens in the following colors: Blender, Sugared Almond Pink, Peach Pink, Lt Pink, English Lavender, Lt Violet, Yellow, Orange, Haze Blue, L Blue, Smoky Teal, Turquoise Green, May Green, Green, Beige, Mid Brown, Gray Brown, Lt Gray.

You will notice there is a little curved tab on each of these pieces once they are die-cut. These will fit perfectly into our diorama design.

At this point I will direct you to the video so that we can go through the entire process step-by-step and this will allow you to follow along if you wish and pause if you need more time.

To finish the project, let’s add some velvet ribbon for hanging the ornament, a metal plaque that says, “Just remember a beautiful thing is never perfect”, and a few pretty pink hearts! I’ll show you how to add some color to your metal plaques using the Tim Holtz Distress Crayons!

Here is a Christmas version of this cute little storybook template design:

Build-A-Bouquet Cards!

Hello Friends!

Watch video tutorial here!

We are going to create two beautiful floral bouquets using the Scrapbook.com Build-A-Bouquet Dies and the Scrapbook.com Bouquet Picks. These two die sets are designed to coordinate nicely together, and the added bouquet pics gives you lots and lots of options for all different seasons and holidays!

In today’s video, I will show you how to cut, color, and assemble these pretty flowers. We will create two different designs, one with a paper wrap around the bouquet and the other will look like it is tied together with a bow!

The two we are making today will be layered onto a thick base that will allow these to sit up nicely on a little easel. Great as not only a card but a little gift as well.

For the background, we will be using the Scrapbook.com Polka Dots 3D Embossing Folder. This is a go-to embossing folder, especially for me, because I absolutely love polka dots!

For the frame, we will be using the Scrapbook.com Nested Stitched Stamps Dies. These are great for your postal style cards, but I think they are also perfect to create an interesting frame for you cards.

Let’s go ahead and assemble all of the layers and our pretty bouquets and add a few sparkly gems for added interest!

NEW Floral Shop Paper – Simple Layered Card!

Hello and Welcome!

Watch video tutorial here!

Today we will be using the spectacular new paper packs in the Art Impressions collection of papers. They are the Floral Shop 6″x6″ Paper Pack and the Floral Shop Cover Paper Pack which is approximately 6″x9″.

With these new papers we will be creating a simple layered card that will have lots of interest and texture in a very easy way!

For the focal image today, we will be using the new Ai Dear Friends Stamp Set. This little set includes so many cute items to create a fun scene. It includes the tea set that we will be using today, and a bench, cake platter, house, vases, and “Dear Friend” sentiment.

We will stamp the tea set and color the set using the Zig Clean Color Real Brush Pens in the following colors: Blender, Sage Green, Hyacinth Blue, Aqua Blue, and Beige.

Next, let’s cut this out with our detail scissors and add some fun details using our gel pens in white and blue.

With a white card base, we will add a layer of floral paper using the Ai Rectangle A2 Double Stitched Dies. We will also die cut some pretty Ric Rack from the Ai Journal Template Die Set, and finally we will die cut a beautiful frame using that same set.

Before, we do the final assembly, let’s stamp the “Thinking of You” sentiment, using the Ai Cottage Charm Stamp Set. This set is part of the Story Tiles Series. Please note that there is a bundle set available that includes these two sets that we are using today as well as two other sets and the Story Tile Die. This die was designed specifically to accommodate all of these new images perfectly! I have listed and linked this bundle set below for you.

Let’s quickly assemble all of the pieces onto the card, popping up the frame for some added dimension.

For a finishing touch, let’s add a little white clay heart to the teapot and a few white gems for a bit of sparkle!

Picture Perfect Tulips!

Hello and Welcome!

Watch video tutorial here!

Let’s have some fun today creating some “Picture Perfect Tulips” cards using the brand-new Ai Tulips Border Set. This set is part of a brand-new Countryside Series which includes three border sets and two cottage sets. The other sets include the Poppy Border set, the Tulip Border set, and the Swiss Village set. I will list and link the bundle set down below if you are interested in taking a look at the entire collection. Of course, as always, you can purchase any of these sets separately.

This card is perfect for the latest Ai “Mix and Match” Blog Challenge which is to use at least two stamp sets, and we will have no problem meeting and exceeding that number with today’s card!

We can begin by stamping and then quickly die cutting the pretty frames using the Ai Mini Journal Template Die Set (5718). We will select certain areas of the stamp for each of the frames. Now we can color the tulips using the Zig Clean Color Real Brush Pens in the following colors: Blender, Yellow, Orange, Sugared Almond Pink, Pink, Lt Green, Dk Green, English Lavender, Violet. And for the frames themselves we will use a gold metallic cardstock. This will add a beautiful, elegant look!

Next, we can add some sparkly spattering and then some white spattering to each of these panels.

For the frames we will add some clear acetate to give a more realistic look. We can quickly assemble the frames. And for the ribbons to create a wall hanging we will use the Ai Front Porch Farmhouse (5490). The pretty bow from this set is a perfect way to create a ribbon and bow for each of our little pictures/paintings.

Next, let’s die cut some layers using the Ai Rectangle A2 Double Stitched Dies (5063) for the cards. Let’s add some pretty patterned paper layers using the Ai Mother’s Day PP (6051), and some black, Pink, Lavender, and Yellow 100lb cardstock for added layering.

For a finishing touch, we will add some beautiful sequins in some coordinating colors!

Please join us in the brand-new blog challenge…. we would love to see what you create!

3D Shadow Box – Delightful Daisies!

Hello and Welcome!

Watch video tutorial here!

Let’s create this fun little 3D Shadow Box using the brand-new Daisy Border Set (6188) and the brand-new Euro Cottage Set (6184). The daisy border set also includes the “For my friend” sentiment.

These sets are part of a brand-new Countryside Series which includes three border sets and two cottage sets. The other sets include the Poppy Border set, the Tulip Border set, and the Swiss Village set. I will list and link the bundle set down below if you are interested in taking a look at the entire collection. Of course, as always, you can purchase any of these sets separately.

We will also be using one of the new 2026 FREEBIE Bear Sets! These are available for free when you make a $30 purchase. You will get a prompt on your order, if you meet the $30 minimum, and you can easily add one of these cute little bears to your order. The FREEBIE I have chosen for today is the little bear holding a daisy…perfect for today’s card!

We will begin by stamping the images and coloring them using the Zig Clean Color Real Brush Pens in the following colors: Blender, Sugared Almond Pink, Lt Violet, Ice Blue, Blue Gray, Yellow, Orange, Lt Green, Dk Green, Lt Gray, Dk Gray, Mustard, Beige, Mid Brown. Once the coloring is complete, we can die cut them and/or fussy cut them.

To create the shadow box, we will be using the Ai Storybook Template Die Set (6121). This is so easy and quick to use and assemble. I will give you all of the instructions and some tips and tricks in today’s video!

We will color in the sky and add some spattering and die cut a few grassy borders to add to our layers.

Let’s add the sentiment using a banner die from the Ai Storybook Template Die Set (6121) and pop it up on the front of the box.

Next, we can stamp a few more daisies for the front of the box and over the sentiment, and finally, we can also add a few sparkly gems and some twine/ribbon to the little tab at the top of the box!

This little box stands up nicely on its own, but you could use it as an ornament or even add an easel to the back of it to make it even more special!

Using the NEW Floral Shop Die Set in a fun new way!

Hello and Welcome!

Watch video tutorial here!

Today’s card was inspired by the current Ai “I see right through you” Blog Challenge. This challenge is to create something that you can see through, so I thought this fun new window design would be perfect for this challenge!

Today we will be using the brand-new Ai Floral Shop Die Set (6159), which is a wonderful add-on die set that was designed to expand the options for your Ai Box Village Die Set. This new set is designed to help you create a sweet flower shop structure! This set has 28 new dies which include a few new windows, a larger door, a longer fence, new scalloped roof dies, and several mini floral dies and so much more! It even includes a “blooms” sentiment die to help you create an adorable flower shop box for your journals. Please also note that this new die set is included in a discounted bundle set. This bundle also includes 5 “Floral Shop” stamp sets which coordinate perfectly with the floral shop structure and are designed to fit perfectly on your tag book journal.

Below is the link for the new Art Impressions Floral Shop Bundle Set (6207):

Let’s get started by creating the card base using the Ai Box Village Template Die Set (6114). We will be using a part of this die to create a tag style card base. I’ll show you how to do this in today’s video!

We will then add some wood grain patterned paper from the Ai Winter Woodland PP (5963) to the card front. Now we can die cut the opening for the window and add the windowpanes on both the front and inside of the card.

Let’s now die cut all of the pieces we will need to create the florals, fence, window box, and awning using the Ai Floral Shop Die Set (6159). We will use the pattern papers from the Ai Mini Birthday PP (5873) and some solid cardstock in Cilantro. We will also die cut a grassy border from that same Cilantro cardstock.

Next, we can go ahead and add all of the die cuts to the card. We will also stamp the “Live life in full…” sentiment on a little banner die and attach to the bottom of the grass. And for the inside of the card, we will use the “Blooms” die from this new set and cut off the letter “s”. So, the inside will complete the sentiment from the front of the card.

We will add some patterned paper to the inside of our tag card in a sweet gingham plaid and then add the sentiment.

For a few finishing touches, let’s add a few pretty butterflies using the Ai Birds & Bugs Set (5561). We can scatter a few on the front of the card and one on the inside of the card. We can also add a pastel heart on the bottom of the window box!

Please join us in this fun new Blog Challenge….we would love to see what you create!

Ornate Poppy Margin Gatefold Card!

Hello and Welcome!

Watch video tutorial!

Let’s get started by die cutting the brand-new beautiful Ai Ornate Margin Dies (6155). There are two borders in this set, so choose whatever one you like best! We will be doing a partial die cutting with this die so that we can get a wider border.

Now we can stamp the brand-new elegant Ai Poppy Margin Set (6163). This absolutely gorgeous stamp set contains two stamps with scroll borders. I love how the borders are the reverse of each other!

We are only going to use the floral portion of the stamp set for today’s card. To do that we will be masking off the scroll border using some temporary tape. Let’s also stamp a few cute bees using the Ai Honey Bee Set (5925).

Now we can color all of our images using the Zig Clean Color Real Brush Pens in the following colors: Blender, Yellow, Br Yellow, Orange, Red, Wine Red, Haze Blue, Ever Green, Moss Green, Dk Gray. There are coordinating dies for the bees, so let’s die cut those and set them aside.

Once the border is completely colored, we will add some ink blending around the edges of this border using some Tim Holtz Distress Oxide Inks in Mustard Seed and Gathered Twigs. We will also spatter the panel using the Mustard Seed ink!

Next, we will emboss the entire gatefold yellow card panel using this beautiful “Quilted Stars” embossing folder from Scrapbook.com. (I’ll show you how to create the gatefold design in today’s video). Once it is embossed, we will then rub a bit of pigment white ink over the high spots for added interest and to soften the look!

We will pop up the floral border onto the front of the card and add a nice gold border with some sparkly gold cardstock. Also, let’s will pop up the little bees and add a few “gypsy confetti” gems.

Let’s quickly finish the inside of the card by die cutting a scalloped rectangle panel using the Ai Scalloped Rectangle Dies (6048) and add some ink blending around the edges. Next, using the Ai Encouragement Sentiments Promo Set (5956) we will stamp and emboss the sentiment with some gold embossing powder. For a finishing look on the inside of the card we will add some of those same sequins and a few bees!

Finally, we will add an elegant white sheer ribbon. This will also act as a nice closure for the card; however, you could also create a belly band if you prefer!

Fun Overlay Stamped Background!

Hello and Welcome!

Today I wanted to show you a simple yet fun card using the Ai Stay Hydrated Stamp Set (5928). We will use this stamp set to create a simple background. With this set you can stamp the thermos design and then select one of the overlay stamps for the pattern on the thermos. There are several choices to include a leopard print, paw prints, Aztec design, and a tiger print! So, there are lots and lots of choices to personalize your cards and we are going to use them all today!

We will stamp the images onto some white cardstock and then using the Tim Holtz Distress Mini Ink Pad in the following colors (Shaded Lilac, Picked Raspberry, Abandoned Coral, Cracked Pistachio, Peacock Feathers) we will stamp the overlay images.

Now we can create the standard A2 card base in white and add a pretty pink scalloped rectangle using the Ai Scalloped Rectangle Die Set (6048). We can cut down the background panel to fit into the scalloped rectangle and attach these two together. Now, let’s tie a piece of dusty rose twine around this scalloped rectangle and pop it up on the card.

We can stamp and color our little lady using the Zig Clean Color Real Brush Pens in the following colors: Blender, Lt Gray, Lt Pink, Turquoise Green, Yellow, Beige, Mid Brown, Flesh Colour. Let’s take the coordinating die and cut her out. We will also die cut the lady one more time onto some black cardstock. This black silhouette image will get attached behind the one that we colored in to create a bit of a shadow and to make the image stand out from the background. You will want to offset it a little bit!

Finally, we can attach the lady to our card! This is a simple yet impactful card that can be used for a variety of occasions including birthday, friendship, thinking of you, and so much more!

Love-ly Lavender Floral Card!

Hello and Welcome!

Watch video tutorial here!

Today we will be using the Ai Floral Bouquet Set (5917) which contains four beautiful floral bouquets! Let’s begin by stamping with some clear embossing ink and embossing the image with some detail white embossing powder onto some white cardstock.

Next, we will color the floral image using the Zig Clean Color Real Brush Pens in the following colors: Blender, English Lavender, Deep Violet, Turquoise Green, Persian Green.

Once the coloring is complete, we will spatter this panel using the Deep Violet pen and a spritz of water.

Now we can die cut the heart layers using the Ai Nested Heart Dies (5721) and some pattern paper from the Ai Encouragement PP (5955) and let’s also add some sparkle cardstock.

Next let’s create the background panel using the beautiful Lawn Fawn Quilted Heart Border. We will die cut this a few times using some patterned paper from that same paper pack and add a backing on each of the borders with some sparkle cardstock.

Now let’s cut a plaid rectangle and add these borders by equally spacing them along this panel. I’ll show you a little trick for lining these up perfectly in today’s video!

Now it’s just a matter of adding some additional layers in white, teal, and another piece of patterned paper.

We can pop-up the heart in the center of the card and add a few pretty sparkly gems for added dimension and interest!

This card was inspired by the current Art Impressions “Love, love me do!” Blog Challenge which is to create something Valentine’s related. Please join us in the fun new challenge…we would love to see what you create!

Easy Paper Piecing & Partial Die-Cutting Card!

Hello and Welcome!

Watch video tutorial here!

Today we will be creating a pretty flap card using a few simple techniques, including some easy paper piecing and some simple partial die-cutting. This will be a fun card especially for those of you who don’t love coloring!

We will begin by creating the card base, which will be a top folding A2 size card. Next, we will partially die cut the bottom of a scalloped heart. The heart die is from the Ai Nested Heart Dies (5721) Set. I will show you exactly how to do this in today’s video! Once we have die-cut the bottom of the scalloped heart we will need to use our paper trimmer to cut away the excess cardstock from both sides of the card. This will create the look of a flap!

Now we can die cut another scalloped heart in Raspberry cardstock. Let’s also grab the next largest heart die from this set and die cut this from some Ballet Slipper and white cardstock.

We can layer the raspberry and ballet slipper hearts together and now we will stamp the teacup from the Ai Tea Time Set (6024). Let’s stamp this 3X so that we can do some simple paper piecing. For all of the pattern papers on this card, we will be using the Ai Valentine’s Paper Pack (5741). Again, I will show you how to do this simple technique in the video!

Now that the teacup is done, we can pop it up onto the two hearts that have been glued together. We can now tie some Dusty Rose Twine around the bottom of the heart and tie a bow. Let’s also add some pretty dots around the two hearts using a white gel pen.

Now we will cut the layers for the inside and outside of the card. I selected a nice gingham plaid for the inside and a pretty coordinating floral for the outside. Let’s also quickly stamp a sentiment onto the card front. I am creating a thank you card …. but this design would be perfect for Valentine’s Day, Anniversary, or even a friendship card!

Now we can finish assembling the card, making sure to line the scalloped heart up with the partially die cut scalloped heart on the card front.

I added the extra white heart to the inside of the card. I left mine blank, but you could certainly add another sentiment here or write a sweet note!

For a finishing touch, we can add some pretty pink sequins for a bit of sparkle!
