Today I’m sharing two simple cards created with products from the June 2025 Release collection. For the first card I used beautiful Craft-A-Flower: Prairie Roses Layering Die Set. It features everything you need to create stunning, realistic floral arrangements, inspired by the untamed beauty of prairie fields.

I started by die cutting all the elements from white cardstock and used Misty Moor, Mossy Meadow, Green Opal, Pink Diamond and Pinkalicious Fresh Dye Ink to blend colour onto the floral elements.

Next, I added some black ink splatters to the background, arranged the flowers and leaves on the card and paired it with Thank You sentiment from Elegant Sayings bundle.

My second card is a quick and simple one layered design, created with Today Is A Good Day Stencil Set.

This set features a quote in a beautiful handwritten style, accompanied by charming leaves and dots for added flair. Perfect for any occasion, this uplifting design is sure to bring a smile to someone’s face! All you need is a few inks in your favourite colour combo, and you’re ready to create something special.

Once again, I used  Pink Diamond and Pinkalicious, along with Mossy MeadowGreen Opal Fresh Dye Inks, to blend over the stencils. It’s amazing how quickly you can create such a beautiful design with minimal effort.

  13. Charming cards. The ombre word card front draws your eye in. And I like the priarie rose card, especially the colors you used for the leaves. It is nice to see another option from the kelly green leaves usually seen.
