First up we are sharing an adorable card trio by Zsoka.

"Hello everyone, Zsoka here! I'm sharing three cards today using the super cute Loveable Laundry stamp and coordinating Stitched Onesie die sets. First, I die cut lots of onesies from various patterned papers from the Paige Evans Truly Grateful collection. I also embossed a few with Opaque Bright White EP, again, on patterned paper. I die cut these too.

On my first card I attached all die cut onesies with foam tape to a patterned paper card front, creating a full background pattern. I then trimmed off the overhang. To finish it off, I added some twine and a cute little clothespin. 

For my second card I stamped and heat embossed some onesies on white card stock, using Gold Rich Pale EP. I had a few patterned paper onesies left and I thought it would be fun to add some of those too. I gold heat embossed my sentiment on a white strip, I glued it on a wider patterned paper strip and attached it to my card. Again I added a clothespin and some twine to finish it off.

For my last card I used an embossing folder from my stash to create a textured background. I then made a clothes line on my card front and hung 5 embossed onesies from it, using clothespins. I gold heat embossed the sentiment on two vellum banners and tucked these under one of the pins. Et voilà!  

I hope I could inspire you with my cards one way or another! Thank you so much for stopping by today! Have a wonderful day! X"

Secondly, we have the very talented Verity.

To create these cards, I stamped the Peonies and leaves from Newton's Nook Peony blooms stamp set in Versafine Onyx black ink onto watercolour cardstock and covered with Violet Pearl embossing powder. Next, I heat set these with the dual-speed WOW! heat gun. In order for the Violet Pearl to show up on the white watercolour cardstock, it must be heat embossed over a dark colour. 

Several of these flowers and leaves were then coloured in with grey and black watercolours to give a monotone colour scheme to allow the violet powder to shine. For these cards, I fussy cut out the designs using scissors - but there are co-ordinating dies.

Next, I laid out the stamped images and temporarily adhered them together with washi tape on the back. This was run through a die cutting machine with a stitched rectangle die, keeping both pieces. Where the stamp images overlapped, I added small amounts of glue and then removed the temporary tape.

For the backgrounds, I dry embossed the Serene Stripes stencil onto dark purple cardstock and foam mounted onto a card-based. For the second background, I ink blended purple ink onto a white card base. Following this, I adhered both die-cut pieces to the corresponding cards. Lastly, heat embossed sentiments in Bright Opaque white embossing powder on the black card were added to the cards and these sentiments come from the Peony Blooms stamp set.

You can find a video tutorial on how to make these cards over on Verity's Blog and YouTube channel.
