Send a Little Happy Mail! Mixed Media Hello Card Inspiration by Tina Smith

Hi friend! I’m delighted to welcome back special guest Tina Smith to our blog today with fresh and gorgeous inspiration showcasing our brand new April 2026 Card kit! Be sure to watch the video for all the details, and enjoy!

Hello, lovely cardmakers! Tina here from Cards & Coffee Time. I’m delighted to share a total “flutter-fest” of a mixed media style card using the Simon Says Stamp April 2026 Card Kit.
I’ve been making a glorious mess using this fun kit: we are stamping, splattering, inking, tearing, stenciling, and even playing with those “magic” rub-ons. Actually, most of the crafty chaos is happening on the background alone- once you start it’s hard to stop! I honestly think I love mixed media so much just because of that, it’s an excuse to keep stacking layers and textures until it feels just right.
Hopefully, this butterfly filled “hello” card gives you a little spark of inspiration! Thanks for visiting, enjoy the tutorial!

Love this card—such a beautiful mix of textures and layers! The mixed media style makes it feel really unique, and the “happy mail” theme is so cheerful and fun.
As a professional, it’s important for me to have access to a wide range of instruments: from stocks to cryptocurrencies. For a long time, I couldn’t find everything in one place with decent terms. Now I trade exclusively on https://roboforex.com/, because they offer a truly vast selection of assets. Execution is instantaneous, which is critical for my scalping strategy. I recommend this platform to all my colleagues.
Scam comments should be removed. We get plenty of this stuff everyday. Imo
This is a really evocative story about a memorable night! It captures that feeling of youthful adventure and unexpected connections perfectly.
This is gorgeous – love those butterflies
Absolutely stunning cards!!
