Let’s start with a burst of sunshine! This bright and cheerful card features the You Are Remarkable stamp set paired with the sunny Floral Delight patterned paper in Daffodil Delight and white.

This fold creates such a fun reveal when you open the card!

​Birthday Card – Pattern of Friendship

This soft and sweet birthday card uses the Pattern of Friendship stamp set with the Wildflower Birthday patterned paper. The muted florals and gold accents add just the right touch of elegance. I kept the color palette light and feminine to match the soft florals.

Celebrate Your Day – Cheers & Sips

Now for something bold and modern! This celebration card is all about the new goodies coming in May. I used the Cheers & Sips bundle with the coordinating Celebratory Sips patterned paper.

The background is the new Secret Sea, a deep navy blue, which really makes the new 2025–2027 In Colors pop—especially Timid Tiger and Strawberry Slush. I tied it all together with the Pack Your Bags Baker’s Twine and a few In Color Flat Pearls for extra sparkle. Everything on this card (except my excitement!) will be available starting May 6.

Get Well Soon – Bright Skies & Everyday Arches

This card is all about mixing and matching! I combined the retiring Bright Skies stamp set and dies with the Everyday Arches dies and added in the soon-to-be-released 2025–2027 In Colors.

I switched up the basic layout of the fun fold card, by using the arched shaped pieces instead of rectangles. I love how this opens to reveal a field of flowers inside!

​The left panel features a rainbow built with the arch dies using Secret Sea, Cloud Cover, Darling Duckling, Strawberry Slush, and Timid Tiger—I mean, how fun are those names? I added clouds, a sweet sunshine, and a get well sentiment from the Brighter Skies bundle. It’s the perfect mix of cheerful and comforting.
