EZ with CZ: Simple Painted Die Cut

Hi friends! Happy Tuesday! I’m delighted to welcome back special guest Cathy Zielske with a bright and happy edition of our monthly series, EZ with CZ! Read on and be sure to watch the video for all the details! Enjoy!

Hey crafty friends! It’s Cathy Z. here with another installment of EZ with CZ! Today, I’m sharing a very simple painted die cut card that also includes a bit of dry embossing for some subtle texture!

Using Distress Ink cubes, I painted a simple rainbow blend onto some Tim Holtz Distress Watercolor Cardstock. Then I cut the big a+ from that piece, and then adhered it to a white shadow layer.

I cut a panel to 3-3/4 x 5 and dry embossed some stars using the Fading Stars stencil for some fun background texture.

The result is so clean and simple. Here’s the video showing you how I created this simple card project:

February 2022 Card Kit Inspiration with Kristina Werner – Valentine’s Day Cards!

Hi all! Kristina Werner here with some card kit inspiration! The February 2022 Card Kit is packed with fun things to create with, including two stamp sets! However, I was taken with the patterned paper in the kit, Simple Stories Happy Hearts 6×8 papers, and decided to create three cards using elements from the pack.
Before I started assembling anything, I went through the paper and cut out any elements that I thought would be fun. I trimmed out greetings and images. I was left with a plethora of different things to create with!


I also used Simon’s Nested Hearts and Nested Circles dies to cut out additional elements for use on my cards.
In the end, after all the cutting and trimming, it was super simple to bring everything together for three cards.




Enjoy the video with tips and tricks for assembling these cards! You can pick up the February 2022 Card Kit HERE, or subscribe for this kit and future kits HERE.
