Sweets Cover Plate + Candy Striper Dies
A favorite among the team! Easily make shakers, add texture, or build a beautiful background with this die. The die features no outline cut, so it can work on any sized project. Here, we've used it to build a 'faux shaker' design, by adhering a few layers together to create tiny grooves, which we filled with our favorite embellies.
Scallops + Strips Cover Plate
An essential, with a modern twist! The scalloped frame works perfectly as a base, but also as a fun strip builder. The included strip designs (in 5 widths) can be used in so many ways! Here, we've combined them with our Bitty Heart Background stamp to create a faux washi tape look.
What's not to love! This cutie features a base, as well as a striped design, making it perfect for shakers, paper piecing, or other fun techniques. Because of its jumbo size, we think it would look mighty cute as an album or in memory keeping projects!
Bloom Stamp + Dies
Perhaps THE most fun set of the release - meet Bloom! A buildable, step-by-step floral sentiment, with supporting accent words, to create fabulous everyday phrases. We love how this set mingles with other florals in the Pigment family, too!

We couldn't be MORE excited to welcome back the talented and wonderful, Angela Simpson!!
Ange is one of our favoritest people - a kind, amazing human being and if you haven't gotten to know her or her art, go! Check out her insta, and her awesome blog where she shares the most beautiful and colorful cards and projects. We're infinitely blessed to haver her join us again and share a couple of projects using Pigment's Festive Wrappings Release.
OK, enough talkie! Let's take a peek at her STUNNING projects!
Hi friends! I'm thrilled to be a Pigment Guest Designer this month and have two projects to share with you today. Holiday gifting is on the minds of many at this time of year, and while the products in the November release are fabulous for all of your holiday gift-giving needs, they're also extremely versatile and can be used year-round. We love stretching our supplies, don't we?
My creations feature some of the new 'For You' sentiments in two different ways: one card, and one coordinating tag. I've been head-over-heels in love with the new Pigment ink pads, so for both projects I used a color palette of Jade, Sage, Fir and Turmeric, with some additional purple accents.
Beginning with the card, I used the previously-released Tile Pattern Cover Plate to create my background, then layered some greenery from the Winter Sprig and new Modern Pointsettia stamp sets. I fell in love with the Jumbo Botanicals: Winter Bloom stamp as soon as I saw it, and because one just wasn't enough, I layered two on top of the greenery. Once I was happy with the arrangement, I adhered the whole cluster to my background panel.
For the sentiment, I decided to use the small 'For you' in the For You stamp set, which also has a few fun mini sentiments that compliment the larger ones. I stamped 'from me with love' underneath, then used some nesting circle dies to cut it out, along with a vellum layer underneath. To finish the card, I popped the sentiment forward with some foam tape and adhered a few sparkling clear sequins.
Moving onto the tag, I absolutely love the new tag dies in the Wrap It Up die set, especially because there are all sorts of shapes and sizes to play with. I chose one of the largest ones and cut it twice - once in vellum, and again from a piece of cardstock that I stamped with the new Pattern Builder: Gingham stamp set. (This is SUCH a fun stamp set for creating all sorts of backgrounds - I know I'll be using it a lot in the future!) I layered a round scalloped die cut from the same die set on top, and used the 'for you' die to create my sentiment in the middle. Then, using some of my leftover greenery and one flower, I created a little cluster and attached it to the tag with foam tape. Rarely do I create a card without foam tape, and love how it adds beautiful dimension to tags too!
Thank you so much for checking out these projects today, and I hope you enjoy playing with this new Pigment Craft Co release as much as I have!

Card making was a hobby I loved as a kid, and after a very long hiatus, something I found myself getting back into about 2 years ago. Rediscovering my love for papercrafting has been a lifesaver for me throughout quarantine, a super fulfilling creative outlet, and my favorite way to de-stress. The crafty Instagram community is so supportive and positive, and the friends I've made here are some of the most incredible people I've ever met!

Just For You
With a large sentiment that can be styled oh-so-many ways, to all the extra sentiment add-ons, this is one fabulous grab! From card fronts, to gift wrap, to tags and beyond! A fabulous addition for merry making that will look just as beautiful year-round. We love that the dies offer two styles of shadow cuts, as well as a tiny, and super-sized 'For You' sentiment.
Modern Poinsettia
Did you see our fancy gift toppers above? Modern Poinsettia makes them oh-so-easy to pull off, and looks pretty cute while at it (if we may say so ourselves ;) To save you some scrolling, take a peek below!
Modern Poinsettia
The multi-step stamp allows for easy color blocking without reaching for masking tape or fussing with masking of any kind. Stamp these cuties up in all colors of the rainbow, add a white-embossed-on-vellum layer below, and voila! Don't your gifts look fancy schmancy!
Festive Fonts + Festive Words
Use them alone, or mix them together! This darling typography looks adorbs however you use it! Perfectly sized, strikingly bold with a twist of modern flair. With 9 alternate fonts to add a little whimsy. While the name may be deceiving, this set works perfectly for year-round crafting, too!
Jumbo Botanicals: Berry Sprig
Jumbo Botanicals are back! Gorgeous, larger-than-life designs, stretching seamlessly from cardmaking to memory-keeping, to gifting and more! We love how perfect this little sprig is for the Season, and with just a simple switch of hues, slides right into Spring designs. The layering dies make it easy to build this cutie with cardstock or paper patterns, or use the individual bits for fun accents - can you say hello polka dots (the berries work perfectly for a dotted background)!
Jumbo Botanicals: Winter Bloom
Take two! Build this pretty bloom (inspired by our Winter Floral set from last month's release) with your favorite hues, then simply mix and match with some greenery and add to your designs. And don't forget to use it beyond the Season - this bloom is perfect year-round!
Wrap it Up Toppings
All the tags and trimmings you could ever need! Two die sets feature an abundance of tag styles - from scalloped to traditional, to super-sized (perfect for gift card-ing). The accompanying stamp is filled with accents to bring the tags to life.
TIP: Use the tags, along with the other toppings to build a fantastically on-trend prezzie wrap! Start with a little pattern, add a tag (or two!), and accent with all the luscious greenery and florals of the Season!
Ribbons + Wreaths
A tiny set that's big on style AND versatility. Two tiny ribbons, along with a multi-step bow, and tiny greenery accents that can be built into wreaths. The funnest tag toppers...ever :)

Please give a big welcome to our talented guest designer, Emily Leiphart!
Emily brings some serious Canadian talent to the table and we couldn't be more humbled to have her joining us this month! Her cards STUN with intricate layers and color. We absolutely LOVE her videos, too! Have you checked them out yet? We've included links below to her blog and insta, where she shares her creativity, so you can take a peek!
In today's post, Emily has worked magic with Pigment's Christmas release and her glittery touches make these cards perfect for sending a little Holiday sparkle to someone special. Come on, let's take a peek!
Hello, crafty friends! I'm so excited to be posting here on the blog today with these two cards using products from the October Release! As I've mentioned before, I love anything font-related and these two Merry Christmas and Happy New Year stamp sets and coordinating dies had to be highlighted!
To create the Merry Christmas card, I first used the Bold Diagonal Stripe Stencil to dry emboss the background panel. I ran both stencils through my die cutting machine at the same time, using the embossing pad and plate to get the double striped detailing and I love the way it looks!
Then I stamped several Whimsy Snowflakes using Jade, Eucalyptus and Sage inks. After using the coordinating Whimsy Snowflakes Dies, I arranged them on the dry embossed panel, popping up three on foam tape and glueing three flat.
I stamped Merry Christmas using Fig, Tumeric and Fir inks, then die cut it using the coordinating Merry Christmas Dies and silver glitter cardstock. After assembling the card, I added white pearls in the centres of three of the snowflakes.
For my Happy New Year card, I created my card base and panel from white linen cardstock before stamping the blooms and foliage from the Festive Floral stamp set. The ink colours for the flowers are Glow, Quince, Terracotta and Fig. The ink colours for the foliage are Jade, Eucalyptus, Sage and Fir inks.
I die cut the stamped images using the coordinating Festive Floral Dies and arranged them around the perimeter of the card, popping the biggest flowers up with foam tape and attaching the rest with a combination of glue dots and liquid glue.
I stamped Happy New Year in both Fir and Seagrass, so I could use the Seagrass hearts as accents. Again, I used silver glitter cardstock as the shadow cut from the Happy New Year Die to make this as festive as possible! Thanks so much for stopping by! I hope these projects inspire you to create this week.

I’ve been making handmade cards since I was a little girl and I started collecting stamps about 20 years ago. When I started blogging shortly after my son was born, I was mainly a Copic colourer and fussy cutter, as there were no layered stamps and die cutting hadn’t really taken off. I only had two ink pads - black and brown - and I couldn’t imagine why anyone would need coloured ink pads. LOL Now I’m obsessed with layered stamps and coloured ink pads that do all the work for me! It’s instant gratification and I love being able to brighten someone’s day with my handmade cards. I’m obsessed with all of Pigment’s beautiful and cleverly-designed products and I’m honoured to be inspiring you with the new release products this month!

Cheryl has been crafting up a storm over on insta with our Christmas release! Have you seen her beautiful projects yet? We've included links below so you can check 'em out and so you can see more of Cheryl's stunning cards! We know you'll be just as inspired as we are.
Take a peek below at how she's rocked our recent release, and her cool tip about adding a little background texture!
Hi crafty friends, Thanks so much for popping in. I am Cheryl Espie and the face behind Linkcrafty Cards.
I am thrilled to be joining Pigment Craft Co for the month of October as a guest designer, and help showcase this delightful and innovative festive release. Today, I will be using a combination of products including the FaLaLaLa Stamp Set, the Winter Sprigs Stamp & Die Set and a sentiment from the Vintage Merry Christmas Stamp Set.
All these beauties will be brought together to create a FaLaLaLa Festive Slimline card. One of the reasons I chose this design was to demonstrate how your small die cuts can be utilized to create a dimensional background for your card, whatever size card base you use.
I die cut several sprigs from the Winter Sprigs Die set. With these, I then glued sprig die cuts randomly over the card base. Following this, it was time to stamp with the lush inks by Pigment Craft Co. Using the colours Sage & Terracotta, I stamped three sets of leaves and berries and adhered them on top of the background. For the FaLaLaLa sentiment I heat embossed this in gold, and added it to the card. I added the ‘With Love’ below to bring in a more personal touch. To finish, gold bling was a must! It’s a great finishing touch to bring the whole card colour combos together.
As an added extra, I filmed the process and I have added it to my Linkcrafty Cards You Tube channel. I hope I have inspired you to create with this beautiful release. Until next time…bye for now!

I live in Calgary, Canada but I was born in the UK. I live with my supportive husband and my two fur babies, Molly & Otis!
I have been a creative spirit from as long as I can remember, but my cardmaking really took off a couple of years after arriving in Canada in 2006. My craft room and my crafting stash has grown into what it is today, and I love every bit of it!
I love the crafting community and the positive vibe it brings to my life. I hope that what I share, inspires others to also create something for themselves.

Hello Hello! I am thrilled to be on the Pigment Craft Co blog today! I had so much fun with their holiday release. I added some of my favorites from earlier releases too, let's get to it! Here's a peek at both of my projects. My overall color palette is Glow + Sage.
My first card features: Tied Up with Love A Little Gift.
I snuck in the Eyelet Background Cover Plate. I backed it with cardstock that is similar in color to Sage. The sentiment from A Little Gift has been stamped in Sage on a strip of cardstock the same width of the card. I used the heart shaped die from the Sweater Weather set. To add more texture to my design, I used cork for the hearts. I finished off the card with jute twine.
My next card features: Snow is Falling Got You a Card-Again. Both the sentiment and the Snow is Falling images have been heat embossed in white. I love that pop of white on the dark green cardstock.
This one uses the Cozy Stitches Cover Plate Die and the Sweater Weather set. The candy cane heart from Got You a Card-Again has been adhered to the card with foam dimensionals. I can't wait to design more holiday cards. I can't believe we're already into Mid-October, where has the time gone? Thanks so much for stopping by!

I'm so excited to be a part of the Pigment Craft Co - New Release festivities! I started my official stamping journey when I opened my first Splitcoaststampers gallery in 2005. I remember designing holiday and birthday cards years before that but never had the connection to the community. Things have certainly changed since 2005, I'm on IG and still maintain a blog too. I love how inspiring this community is and I'm so grateful to be a part of it.

Hello friends!
I am so excited to be sharing two cards today that feature products from the latest Pigment Craft Co. holiday release! These cards feature the beautiful Festive Florals, Winter Sprig, Christmas Bouquet Outline, and Falala stamp sets and coordinating dies. Let’s get started!
For the first card, I stamped the sprigs from the Winter Sprigs stamp set using Jade ink directly onto an A2-sized piece of white cardstock, creating a simple background. Next, I stamped the Christmas Bouquet Outline using black ink then stenciled and stamped with the coordinates using Eucalyptus and Sage ink for the foliage and Glow and Quince ink for the blooms. Once complete, I die cut the image, cut it in half and adhered each half onto the stamped background with foam adhesive. For the center, I stamped and die cut JOY from the Star Wreath set and adhered it using foam adhesive. To finish, I stamped and heat embossed the subsentiment in white onto black cardstock and adhered it.
For the second card, I cut 1/2” strips of white cardstock and adhered them, at an angle, onto half of an A2-sized white card base. I stamped and die cut the Festive Florals using Jade, Eucalyptus, and Sage ink for the foliage and Terracotta, Fig, and Turmeric ink for the blooms. To add a bit of interest, I gold heat embossed a few pine sprigs onto the center of the blooms. Once complete, I cut each with the coordinating dies and adhered them to the center using foam tape. To finish, I heat embossed Merry & Bright from the Falala set then die cut and adhered them to the card using foam adhesive. Thank you so much for joining me today! I hope that you enjoyed learning more about my cards and are inspired to create some holiday cards of your own! Dee

With Guest Designer Laura Evangeline
Please give a BIG welcome to our talented Guest Designer, Laura Evangeline!
Laura's creations are fun, whimsy, and full of stunning inspiration! Her eye for detail and color is impeccable and her cards make us swoon as we admire all the yummy layers and dimension! Today, she's sharing THE perfect project idea for a little Holiday gifting, along with a step-by-step breakdown and fantastic tips.
Take a peek below at how she's worked her magic with Pigment's Christmas release - we love every bit of it!!
Hello! Hello! Thank you for stopping by. I am Laura Evangeline, and I’m so very happy to be celebrating the latest product launch with Pigment Craft Co. Today, I am using the holly leaf & berries from the “Berry Merry” set as well as a lovely sentiment from "FaLaLa".
To start these tags, I cut a banner from white embossed paper and topped them with a smaller banner cut from patterned papers for each of the four seasons. (If you saw my recent post, then you may notice these are the "left overs" from the tags I shared in the Pigment Instagram hop & giveaway a couple days ago (which is still open for you to enter to win until October 7th at 11:59 pm CST!).
After adding a bit of decorative stitching in coordinating colors to each tag, I went to select a sentiment and settled on "FaLaLa". I didn't think I could reasonably stretch this sentiment into the four seasons like I did with the wreath, so I set two of my tag bases aside for another day.
I still wanted to show alternative color palettes at least a little bit, so I decided to make one a traditional red & green theme and the other a non-traditional pastel combo. I stamped, embossed, and die cut several "FaLaLa" layers in every color I thought would work, so I had loads to play with.
One of the “FaLaLa” sentiments I stamped in Fig and heat embossed over with clear (left), and another I embossed in white and used my Fig ink pad to ink blend over it (right). I just wiped it off with my stamp cleaning towel and the white embossing shined up crisp and clean. (Note: You will see many crafters pick up ink onto their blending brush and then tap off the excess onto a scrap or their glass/silicone work surface, but I prefer to tap off directly into the lid of my stamp pad, so I don't make a mess or waste ink & paper which I can use again later.)
The next thing I did was use the "Berry Merry" set to die cut & stamp loads of berries, holly leaves & holly leaf spines from a combination of white cardstock as well as from glitter cardstock. I wasn't quite sure at this point what direction I would be going. I just knew I wanted options to play with.
I also added a whisp of glue to each berry and dunked them each into a pot of glitter before letting them dry.
At this point I was finally ready to start playing around with the buffet of die cuts and colors I had made for myself. Once I had a layout and color combo I liked, I used a combination of liquid glue and foam adhesive to secure everything in place. I couldn't go without adding a few gem and glitter accents as well as eyelets and a bit of twine for each.
I secured them to a couple of kraft coffee bags I had in my stash which I also added gold glitter dots to and filled with white chocolate truffles. Now they're ready to make someone's day!
Okay, that it for me this time. I hope you’ve enjoyed these tags as much as I have. I hope to craft with you again soon. Until then… stay crafty!

Hello! Hello! I’m Laura Evangeline. I grew up in Texas, and thanks to the military have lived in Kentucky, Italy, Afghanistan, Hawaii, and now finally Tennessee. I started scrapbooking and cardmaking a few decades ago, but took a long break when I was in nursing school. A few years ago I realized it was more than a silly hobby I could just forget about. I fell in love with making again, and wholeheartedly credit my mental health and well-being to crafting and the amazing friends I’ve made through this wonderful industry. It really isn’t just glitter and glue, it’s genuine kinship and therapy!
Thank you again!

A heap of berry-liscious fun! We love these cuties on packaging, card fronts and for adding a touch of Holiday greenery just about anywhere!
A more-than-meets-the-eye set with greenery and layered florals! We love using this set to build festive backgrounds with the delicate boughs.
An outline, a stamp and stencil bundle, and coordinating dies mean that this suite is perfect for hours of creative fun! We like to use the outline as a guide for all the stamp + stenciling fun, or for watercoloring away. The cute flowers can also be used all on their own, to build merry designs. Also, the candy-cane striped sentiments give us serious Holiday vibes - eep!
Who says flowers aren't for Christmas?! This little cutie was designed to compliment our Partridge set, but it looks delightfully fresh all on its own, or paired up with our Falala sentiments.
Christmas Season Sentiments + Star Wreath
Two sets we LOVE! Pile on the sentiments to add a touch of happy messaging to your projects, or use each sentiment alone to accent your card designs. The Star Wreath is especially lovely for a quick and easy accent when a standard tag, or round wreath won't do! The stamp + stencil set makes it super easy to color up some festive greenery in a minute.
How GORGEOUS are these designs?!! Share your love for our talented guest designers over on our feed and don't forget to hop and enter the giveaways!

Featuring the Pigment Palette
We're getting inky today! Playing up some of the softer hues in the Pigment Palette, we have a fun trick to share that makes soft colors pop, without taking away from their delicate nature. Do you know what it is?
We LOVE adding a touch of dark to a soft color line-up, and today, we've sprinkled in a little Fir to punch up our soft palette. Anytime we feel tempted to reach for black, we opt for another deep hue instead. One that complements the colors we've used, but does not overpower them.
Come, take a look below! We hope this little tip will help next time you're playing with the Pigment Palette!
Accent soft hues with Fir and watch them come to life!

Introducing: 10 Signature Ink Colors
No matter how you mix and match them, we have designed our ink colors to work seamlessly with one another. Even if color matching is not your forte, rest assured that we've developed our ink collection with one primary goal: to bring our soft, signature colors to your stamping workspace, while making color matching a breeze! But we didn't stop there. Keep reading below to see how our swatching system, stamp stock and some fun tips, take our ink from pretty shades, to a system of fool-proof stamping!
Coordinating Re-inkers
An ink line would not be complete without re-inkers! We want you to get messy and creative with your pads. Use them, love them, color with them...Without the worry of using up all that color goodness! Each color has a coordinating re-inker, so that your pad, like your color daydreams, won't dry up! Besides endless color, what we love most about these little guys is that they are the ultimate tint medium and the gateway to a world of color! Because they are water-based, you can mix them with various bases (water, glaze, white paint, paste, etc) and cut down on the storage space AND your crafty budget, while upping the fun!
Swatch Book Stamps + Dies
With all of this color fun, we absolutely HAD to create a swatching system! One that helped us easily see each color + how it responds to different mediums, and one that was easy to flip through, store, and reach for time and time again. Meet our swatching stamps and dies - this is JUST the start of so much more to come!
Designed with dies that cut foldable, sturdy sheets made for flipping, as well as pre-arranged and standalone swatch elements, you can build a swatch book that includes oodles of techniques + your favorite supplies. Love to watercolor? Swatch it up! Want to see how each color looks with a variety of mediums? Stamp the grid and fill in! Have cardstock, felt, or other materials that need an organized home? The dies help create cubes and window panels that make it easy to feature these bits. Our pre-arranged cubes provide a guide, so you can easily add in your favorite techniques - from gouache, to paste, to glaze mediums, and more! All colored with just a touch of re-inker drops, it expands the Pigment rainbow, and the fun! It has brought us so much joy to make this little rainbow organizer...And it's even more fun to use!
Here is a peek at the backside, where the fun happens :) Mediums and techniques. The front features the ink - stamped, blended and watercolored. Each side is a burst of color waiting to jump from these sheets into your projects! To pick your palette, simply leaf through, settle on your hues (rest assured, they all work together seamlessly) and create away!
To see all the colors up close, watch us put together this swatch book, and get a peek at some extra tips and projects, watch our All-You-Need-To-Know video.
We hope you've enjoyed this peek. Now go. Get inky!
A world of color awaits.

Please give a BIG welcome to our talented Guest Designer, Daniel Diaz!
Daniel's creative repertoire is extensive - his use of color is beyond cheery and he's mastered the art of adorable cards to a tee! We also can't help but feel like we want to drop all. the. things. and run straight into our craft room, when we see his creative reels on insta! We urge you to take a peek :)
Today, we're sharing how he's worked his magic with Pigment's Fall release - we love every bit of his colorful pumpkin spice card!
Hello my friends, I’m so happy to be a guest here on the Pigment Craft Co Blog. I made a card using the Pumpkin Patch stamp and die set using some none traditional fall colors. I also used the Quatrefoil Background Cover Plate Die and the Split Sentiments Autumn. So enough said lets jump over to the step by step.
1. I started by cutting a panel out of white cardstock down to 5 ½ and 4 ¼ inches. I used three different colours for my background which I ink blended using a blending brush.
2. I stamped the pumpkins and the leaves using the same colours I used for my background and just added a darker shade for the shadows. I love these colours just for everything.
3. If you know me then you know that my sentiment had to be in gold. So I heat embossed the sentiment and die cut it using the coordinating dies. 4. To finish my card I adhered everything using liquid glue and some foam tape for the pumpkins to give them some dimension.
Thank you so much for stopping by on the Pigment Craft Co blog and I wish all of you a wonderful day and take care.

Please give a BIG welcome to our talented and wonderful Guest Designer, Wanda Guess!
Wanda's cards are SUCH an amazing reflection of her beautiful personality - fun, radiant, and oh-so-joyful! Her bright, inviting colors really make you feel as though every card is a little piece of art in the form of a paper hug.
We're so excited to share what she has created with Pigment's August release. Take a peek below!
I'm happy to be a guest here on the Pigment Craft Co Blog today! I made a card and a matching garland using the wonderful new Fall collection! I used the Sweater Weather stamps and dies as my focus and added other products to accent the cute sweaters.
I started by stamping and die cutting out seven different sweaters in a retro Fall color palette (what fun!). I added hearts and bits of twine.... The background for my card is made using the Latte Heart Background Die over woodgrain paper. The images are all stamped onto cream cardstock in lieu of bright white for a softer feeling. I attached the two sweaters to the card using foam tape and added that awesome sentiment at the bottom. I think the sentiments in the Sweater Season set are SO fabulous!
To make the garland I used five of the sweaters and put them onto pretty twine with metal clips.
I used the small leaves from the Fall Wreath Stamp Set on the garland also. I wrapped twine around the leaf bundles and then glued them onto the brown and white twine with clear glue. This is such a happy project to make! Big thanks to the crew at Pigment Craft Co for inviting me to be part of the fun here today! Happy Crafting!

If there ever was a card-maker extraordinaire that could master all the techniques, while inspiring you madly, Jenny is the girl! Her videos are a spectacular dive into all things watercolored, layered and lovely. Also, have you seen the magic she makes with florals?! We simply cannot get enough!
Take a peek at the bedazzled creations she's made using Pigment's August release - we hope you'll love them as much as we do!
I created a warm background using rustic cardstock ombre blended with browns and golden yellows, splattered with some gold for shine. The star of the card is the large wreath from Fall Wreath, created using layered stamping with those same inks from the background. Different layers of foam squares add dimension and interest. The sentiment is from Sweater Season Sentiments, heat embossed in gold and a small scattering of matte gold sequins for understated sparkle.
Here, I created a matching rustic shaker using the Latte Heart Background Cover Plate die filled with with matte gold sequins and little crystals. Each ‘section’ is separated by thin foam tape to ensure sequins peep through up and down the card. It was paired with the Fall Wreath stamped with autumnal hues, with a little ink blending on the stamp to create depth. The Split Sentiments: Autumn looks fab heat embossed in pale gold to complement those sequins. I added a little bit of additional foliage using spare leaves from Fall Wreath, left over from creation of the first card.

Also, have you checked out her fabulous video, which she shared for the release? We hope you swing over and take a peek! It's packed with fun color and tips on how Laura uses our Frame Builder set.
Hello! For my project I featured the Latte Heart Background die. I die cut a panel of white cardstock for the mail panel and then die cut several more shades of solid colored cardstock to fill in each shape with color.
The pieces were adhered flat to the card base and the white panel was popped up with foam tape. I used the Sweater Weather stamp set and coordinating die set to create a colorful sweater that coordinate with the background.
For the sentiment I used the Sweater Season Sentiments stamp & coordinating die set. I added a small embossed sentiment from the Split Sentiments: Autumn stamp set.

The Fruity set is packed with so many different elements, which means piles of versatility, or easy makes with heaps of fruit. We also LOVE how she has added a shading element to the fruit by mixing different tones of ink!
FEATURING: PATTERN BUILDER: BUDDING BRANCHES, FRUITY, BERRY PATCH.

Hello, my name is Keia. I am a blogger, designer, photographer and lover of all things paper. As I like to say, “I have never met a piece of paper I did not like.” I enjoy mixing my love of colors, patterns, and techniques into the cards and pocket scrapbooking pages I create. Creating in many ways is an exercise in letting go and opening myself up to the possibilities of what can be. Exploring my world through multiple mediums allows for organic creativity and a bit of paper magic.

Tips and Tricks
What speaks Summery, flowy, balmy bliss? Ethereal cards check all the boxes. Lately, we can't get enough of them! With soft colors, layers and textures, join us as we dive into how you can whip these cuties up in no time. It's easier than you think!
Your favorite stamps. Here, we've used Blossoming stamps and dies, Delicate Floral Fillers stamps and the Delicate Floral Shadow die. But any floral stamps you have on hand will do! Florals, by nature, are a little easier for working in softness, than say, a geometric design or other bold graphic. So this is our first tip! Keep reading below on next steps.
1
Vellum is a magical thing! It has the ability to add softness to any design. Whether you use it as an overlay or heat-emboss it, like we did here, it's our favorite design twist!
2
Soft colors key to soft designs, but did you know that deeper hues help ground the palette? We always recommend adding in a splash of them!
3
Softness has the tendency to get lost without any contrast. So we add in plenty by playing with textures and dimension. Heat-embossing, dimensional adhesive, and die-cuts all help.
A tiny peek at all the soft layers...And bits we've mixed in for these pastel designs.
To start this card, we heat-embossed our Delicate Floral Fillers stamp designs onto vellum, cut with the Delicate Floral Shadow die. Just below that, we tucked in leafy accents from our Blossoming set.
Arranged over that, we added blooms and buds from the Blossoming set, along with a Dashing sentiment.
Here is another example of these tips in action. In this instance, we opted for only a tiny bit of vellum (for the small sentiment), and added in bold green and honey accents among the soft colors. Dimension and texture are again front and center, with a mix of Cup of Happy and Pocketful of Joy florals popped up with dimensional foam tape.

With Guest Ilda Dias
Are you ready for some gorgeous floral inspiration!? Please give a BIG welcome to our talented (and Canadian) Guest Designer, Ilda Dias!
Below, we're sharing a little bit about Ilda's stamping journey and a peek at how she has used our most recent release in her cards. For more inspiration in Ilda's cheery, elegant style, be sure pop over to her Insta feed! We know you'll love her creations just as much as we do!
Then join us back here again for our next Guest Designers feature...Coming soon!
We LOVE how Ilda has used the Anemone stamp in her first card. Elevating these soft florals with beautiful accenting. The embossed detailing and glittery centers are sooo dreamy, and we love how they add a pop to these soft colors!
Her next Anemone card is just as stunning...In an elegant combo of pinks and greys. We also LOVE the larger-than-life 'Thank You' sentiment - doesn't it look gorgeous in this textured silver?
Last up, a patterned beauty! We just can't get enough of this luscious floral pattern, and these colors!
Did you know that all Pattern Builder sets are designed to help build cubes of pattern which you can stamp and repeat infinitely, like Ilda has here? These little sets go the extra mile and are perfect if your papercrafting stretches beyond cardmaking, or if you like the versatility of building your pattern in any size!
FEATURING: PATTERN BUILDER: FLOWERING PETALS, MUCH TOO KIND.

Why do I love stamping? I love that it allows for so much creativity. One stamp can be used in so many ways, and the possibilities are endless. The escape you get from the creative process is very therapeutic and once you are done you are rewarded with a handmade card that can be gifted to someone else.

Three Ways with Much Too Kind
Oh, hey Friend! We have a fun post to share with you today that's all about versatility.
Because we LOVE versatility. You could say we love it so much, that we never, ever design a product that can't be used in multiple ways. As creatives, versatility is what drives us! Sometimes, we're in the mood for a little coloring. At other times, we love to repeat-stamp to our hearts content. And yet, at others, finding just the right sentiment means we like to mix-n-match.
We also love a set that will stand the test of time...and we hope you will too! Today, we're sharing a few ways to work the switch-up game with our Much Too Kind set which checks all these boxes. Hope you like!
Our Much Too Kind stamp and die set, and our Heart dies. This trio of products works perfectly for our projects, but is also versatile enough for plenty of cardmaking hours of fun. You can hop over to our insta feed to check out how we use these designs in other ways, or just keep reading below!
1
It's oh-so-easy to make a fun pattern with the hearts in this stamp set, and the coordinating heart dies! We've inked up a rainbow to build a teensy grid with a bit of vellum accenting.
2
Start with a slanted greeting, flip your PAPER 180 degrees and repeat stamp for a super easy, super fun design! The is THE perfect card when you need to mass produce.
3
The coordinating heart dies not only work with the small hearts in the set, but also feature larger hearts (and tag accents) to make this cutie in no-time!
Whichever design you choose, a little extra detailing can bring everything to life. Here is a closer look at the products we've mixed in with these projects.
For these simple hearts, we inked up a rainbow, and used coordinating dies to cut each heart. The 'thx' sentiment is a perfect focal point when heat embossed in our favorite hue (you can find it here).
A touch of vellum and a sentiment from our Fruity stamp, completes this card and keeps the focus on the colorful hearts!
You can make super cute tags with our Heart die set. And then use the itty bitty hearts to decorate them up! The mix of lined and solid images gives this grid a bit of a visual break, which is always fun in a repeating pattern. The sparkly hearts can be cut using the tiniest dies in the set :)
Our last card set is anything but difficult to master...With a stamp positioner it is even easier to make these cuties on repeat. A perfect design for when you need to mass produce some notes of thanks!
We simply started with a 4.25"x5.5" card base, and a slanted 'thank you' sentiment from our Much Too Kind set, stamped up with our stamp positioner. We then flipped our PAPER 180 degrees (without moving the stamp), and stamped again. Voila! A super easy card in minutes! The large sentiment is perfectly sized for this technique, and the rounded sentiments help add an extra pop of typography.

Stamping and paper crafting are where I find my center and express myself creatively. I find inspiration in geometry, botanical illustration, and graphic arts. I love to incorporate those topics into my projects and share them with other crafters.

Hello. I'm Leica (pronounced "lai-kuh") and I live in Southern California with my husband, 10 year old daughter, 2 guinea pigs, and our Pekingese. As a little girl, I enjoyed making cards and other paper crafts for my dad who lived overseas. I have always loved cardmaking, but was never good at drawing. So when I found out about clear stamps that I could color, I was hooked!
I'm honored to guest design for Pigment this month. I hope you will find my cards inspiring!
