We're living for this roller coaster stamp set! Especially because you can die-cut a roller coaster cart to sit on the tracks.

Easy Florals in Bloom Card with Petunia Pop and Night of Navy
This layout does a great job of letting the Florals in Bloom Designer Series Paper take center stage. The wide panels give those bold florals plenty of room to breathe, which makes the whole card feel clean and well balanced. Pairing the bright Petunia Pop flowers with Night of Navy cardstock adds just the right amount of contrast. It sharpens the design and gives the card a polished look, even though the layout itself stays pretty straightforward! Project Details & Inspirati

A Two-Flap Fun Fold Card Using the Florals in Bloom Suite
The blues and greens in this card really pop with the Petunia Pop flowers (maybe that’s why there’s “pop” in the name 😄). This fun fold card doesn’t really have a specific name, but it’s essentially a card with two front flaps. One of the flaps just happens to be skinnier than the other, which gives the card a little extra movement and keeps it from feeling too symmetrical. This card is a great example of letting coordinated products (like the ones in the Florals in Bloom Su

Flip Flap Tri-Fold Thank You Card with Banner Sayings Bundle
Once the Splash of Sparkles Designer Series Paper hit the table, we knew a standard fold wasn’t going to cut it. That shiny, splotchy goodness deserved some movement, a little drama, and a layout that shows off more than one pretty panel. Enter the flip flap tri-fold. This fun fold is one of those designs that looks impressive right out of the gate!

One mat led to another and the ribbon landed right where it belonged! Using the Banner Sayings Bundle and Splash of Sparkles Designer Series Paper , we let contrast do most of the work.

Sending Thanks in Timid Tiger with Fabulous Sayings
Bright and orange!Is there even a better way to say thanks to a great friend? As we're crafting in the middle of winter here in Minnesota, it's fun to get to use these colors because we get to pretend that it's not actually 10 below outside. This card is using our new favorite All in a Row Embossing Folder (if you saw our previous blog post : told you we're obsessed 😂). We're thinking it's going to be "up there" on our list, probably even close to the Subtle Embossing Folder
