Hello there, it is Verity here from Pretty Little Button for the Bumbleberry Design team. When creating cards, I like to make several at a time with the same set, and this Pierced hexagon die set from Avery Elle is great for this. I kept the three cards within the same colour scheme, showing how easiest is to create 3 different designs, but you can create many more different cards buy simply just changing the colours. So why not create 3 ways to say Thanks with just one die! Written and photos - 3 ways to say Thanks with 1 die: Card...

 Hello there, it is Verity here from Pretty Little Button for the Bumbleberry Design team. I'm so excited to share these cards with you today as Bumbleberry Papercraft was asked to create some cards using the Concord & 9th Big Thanks stamp and die set for the July issue of Simply Cards & Papercrafts magazine.

This colour scheme is also a great colour scheme for either gender...

The simple design of the card lends...

Hello there, it is Verity here from Pretty Little Button for the Bumbleberry Design team. I have a couple of cards today with a great technique for using your alcohol ink backgrounds up. I don't know about you, but I love to play around with my alcohol inks but I don't always have a project in mind when creating. Therefore, I collect a pile of backgrounds just waiting to be used and they are perfect for die cut inlay technique. Whatsmore, the Fine Bouquet from Altenew is stunning die that is perfect for it!

Hello there, it is Verity here from Pretty Little Button for the Bumbleberry Design team. I have a lovely monochromatic card today where I have used a kraft card base to add a pop of interest to bring out the monochromatic colour scheme. When I was making this card, I originally planned to have the flower in just the fog cardstock but decided to add a few flowers in the purple to increase the contrast, and I'm so glad I did. We often reach for more and more colours to add to a card, but you can create stunning elegant cards with...
