At a demonstrator-only event back in August, we not only got early access to the amazing Painted Collage Suite, but we also created projects alongside Stampin’ Up! creators and trainers. This pretty thank-you card was one of them…

I love, love, love all the texture on this card! First, there are the gorgeous grids in the background – four of them, die-cut from Cajun Craze cardstock and layered over the Cajun Craze card base, behind the feature panel.

Let’s talk about the lovely layers on that panel! The patterned background comes from the Painted Collage Designer Series Paper. One sheet has twelve mini 7.5 cm x 10 cm (3” x 4”) portraits, ready to cut out and use in creative ways! This petite design was enhanced with the raindrops die to create a peek-through, then topped with stamped and die-cut elements. One layer is the branch from the Notes of Collage Bundle, stamped in Petal Pink ink onto Petal Pink cardstock, die-cut, and scrunched up for extra texture before adding it to the feature panel with Mini Stampin’ Dimensionals.

But wait… there’s more! The front of this thank-you card swings open to a little surprise…

I love that big reveal! Inside are more of those cute patterned paper portraits, which I stamped with the branch in Secret Sea ink, plus a perfectly sized space for a gift card. This is such a simple (and fun!) way to gift a voucher, secured in a flash with Mini Glue Dots.

The Painted Collage Suite was part of this week's Online Exclusive product release, so you can see for yourself how beautifully the papers, stamps, and dies layer together.
