Rainbow Frames Duo featuring our September 2025 Card Kit!

Hello everyone! Heather Hoffman here today, and I’m super excited to be sharing some colorful and fun inspiration using the AMAZING and newly released September 2025 Card Kit: Birthday Blitz! Keep reading to learn more about how I created these cards:

I featured a couple of the new dies in the kit to create these cards, as well as the embossing folder, sentiment strips, and some of the pattern paper! You might notice the Simple Stories Fun Times 6×8 pattern paper and the frames are the common theme between these two cards! I used Modern Teardrops dies to cut both a window and frame, and then built my cards around those. I also used the Birthday Sentiments Embossing Folder as a background for both cards.

I used some of the fun colorful Assorted Card Panels in the kit to die cut the Rubber Ducky and Party Balloon die, as well as a larger frame on the ducky card to back the pattern paper one. I added some Scalloped Circles to the ducky card, die cut from white glitter cardstock and white cardstock. These cards are nice and dimensional – I used Big Momma foam adhesive to add dimension between nearly every layer, but since it is thinner than some of my other foam adhesive, it keeps the cards from getting too bulky!

I added some white string to the back of each balloon, taping in place, then once all the balloons were adhered in place, I bundled them together and tied a bow around all the loose strings, then trimmed off any extra pieces. The accent on the balloons were die cut with the same color of cardstock, but then I added sparkly glitter glue to those pieces to make them pop, as well as the wing on the ducky.

Finally, I added a few sentiments from the Birthday EZ Strips sentiments in the kit – you can never have enough birthday cards, and these sentiments make it effortless to turn any card into a birthday card!

Do you like to use both positive and negative pieces of a die cut to create cards in pairs? Or are you more likely to discard those extra pieces?
