Thank you to everyone who joined me for today’s Facebook Live! We spent some creative time playing with the beautiful Exciting Times Bundle paired with the cheerful Beautiful Ordinary Life Designer Series Paper—and I have to say, this collection truly lives up to its name. The soft colors, playful patterns, and versatile greetings make creating quick and beautiful cards so easy!
Today I shared three different card designs, each highlighting a unique way to use these gorgeous papers. Which card is your favorite—the Happy Birthday, Thank You, or Let’s Celebrate design? Leave me a comment and let me know! I always love hearing which projects inspire you most.
You can watch the replay of Wednesday’s Facebook Live on my Id Rather Bee Stampin’ Facebook page and craft along with me.
For the first card, I let the Designer Series Paper do all the work! By cropping the patterned paper with the Rounded Rectangle Punch and arranging them in a collage layout, the card instantly becomes playful and modern. A simple birthday greeting takes center stage while coordinating embellishments tie everything together.
This design is perfect for using up paper scraps while showcasing multiple patterns from the pack.
The second card is bright and cheerful with a bold honeycomb pattern that instantly catches the eye. A sweet die-cut flower and ribbon accent frame the sentiment beautifully, creating a design that works for birthdays, congratulations, or any happy occasion worth celebrating.
I love how the soft pastel palette keeps even the bold patterns feeling fresh and fun.
The final card features texture and layers. The embossed background adds elegant detail without overwhelming the design, while vertical strips of patterned paper create a clean, sophisticated look.
A soft ribbon accent tucked behind the sentiment adds movement and dimension, proving that a few simple elements can create a card with a big impact.
