It’s a beautiful day here in south central Iowa! I should’ve been out riding my bike this morning! lol Do any of you have an e bike? Do you like it? I’m sure tempted to go look and try one of them.
A clean and simple look to my card today. I used a champagne colored foil to hot foil the sentiment but it looks black. Figures.
I didn’t think to try to catch the light when I was taking pictures but it really is foil! poppystamps You Are Amazing Poe Script Greetings Foil and Cut Die Set.
I used Memory Box Wrapped Stitch Rectangles…it’s my go to for cutting panels it seems. I like it!
I embossed the new 3D folder and die cut the leaves with the included dies, glued them to the white A2 panel except for the top middle leaf, I used the thin mounting tape that I’ll link to below.
I made some pretty little flowers with poppystamps Petite Blooms Flower Set from the most recent release. The smallest die cut, cut two times for each flower and layered together and glued in the center directly to the panel.
I used the Birch Press Design Simple Dragonfly Contour Layers die from the most recent release and made some pretty tropical dragonflies to land on the card!
Straight forward die cutting and gluing…no inking even! BOOM! lol Two non inked cards in a row!
Tip: The next two pictures are how I decided to store the 3D folders and dies using the packaging that they come in! I think it’s really slick!
I take the heavyweight clear piece off of the sturdy cardboard backer they come with and cut the top off of the plastic with a scissors so it becomes a slot when you put it back over the cardboard backer and you can slip the folder and the dies in and out of! No additional plastic sleeve needed for storage! Perfect!
Thank you for stopping by…holler if you have any questions!

Wow! That embossing folder makes such an impression of depth – beautiful tropical feel to this one, my friend – well done, as always!!!
What a pretty card Pam! I love tropical! Your colors are gorgeous and I love the addition of the dragonflies!
What a beautiful card, love the embossing and the flowers and the sentiment sets it off even if it looks black.
I love the colours you used on this card!!
Your die cut, non-inked card is absolutely gorgeous! You’ll make me wish I’d gotten these leaves, but I chose the fish and waves instead. Plus a couple 3D folders. Must have limits, but not too many, ha! Really love those cute dragonflies, too. Super cool tip for storing the folders. Thanks! I think an e-bike sounds like tons of fun. Go for it!
What a beautiful card Pam! I love anything tropical…..even before we moved to Florida! What a great storage tip! Thanks for sharing!
Love this with the beautiful colors and the dragonflies!! And GENIUS storage method so going to do this!! Thank you Pam!!!
Don’t you love these 3D embossing folders, they make such lovely cards. Love the card with the tropical leaves and the lovely flowers and dragonflies. It just stopped raining here but we really needed it.
