You may remember my previous Damask Designs cards (posted here). After I finished those cards I had a few extra damask backgrounds featuring the Stampin’ Up! Lost Lagoon Two Tone paper, so I started created with the new Good Times Ephemera pack.

I created this trio of card ideas with Ephemera Pieces to show you a variety of card possibilities for many occasions!

A handmade card with "Thank You" text, black ribbon, and silver leaf embellishments sits on a craft mat. Surrounding it are gold gem stickers, a floral tag, and colorful ephemera featuring a bike, butterfly, and flowers. The text reads “Good Times Mix & Match Ephemera.”.

Did you know…

These new ephemera pieces are stickers!? Yep!! They are!! You can leave the backing on if you prefer to punch them out first or use them with dimensionals, or, simply peel off the backing and use them as stickers on your handmade papercrafting projects!

Having this intricate branch die cut be a sticker was so helpful!! No fussing with glue!

2 Crafting Tips:

  1. Need a color of linen thread or twine you don’t have? Color it with a Stampin’ Blend marker! I used Secret Sea. Find this and all other Stampin’ Up! supplies in my online store – product photo links are at the bottom of this post.
Two handmade greeting cards with blue-green patterned backgrounds, black borders, and “hello there” tags tied with black twine are displayed on a grid mat—perfect for Stampin' Up card making fans. Text suggests coloring thread with the pattystamps marker. To read more, visit Patty Stamps (pattystamps.com)

2. Don’t forget that little extra special touch inside your card (especially a darker colored card base). I partially embossed my Basic White cardstock panel with the Damask Designs embossing folder!
