Lace and florals! I absolutely love the two things combined to give a soft elegant finish on a project. For this card, I was excited to try out the new Eyelet Blooms Die, which is the April 2026 Product of the Month, to create a lace background for my card. It reminds me of a lace table cloth, or soft lace curtains.
To give even more texture to the background piece, I gently lifted the edges of each Eyelet Bloom, using the spatula tip on the Take Your Pick Tool, before adhering this layer to the card base.
This die goes so well with the stunning florals in the Lovely & Beautiful Suite Collection that I used on my card.
In the Lovely & Beautiful Suite are two stamp and die bundles. I chose the Beautifully Celebrated bundle and the Lovely & Beautiful Designer Series Paper. It is stunning paper. I have used it on the softer "B" side of the paper but on the bolder "A" side are gorgeous large floral patterns with gold foil accents. Both sides of the paper are stunning and it's hard to choose which side to use.
I added some die cut gold foliage and heat embossed the sentiment in gold to add further elegance (though gold embossing is hard to pick up on camera).
I stamped the leaves in Versamark ink onto the lighter side of Old Olive Two-Tone Cardstock and heat embossed them in White Embossing Powder, before die cutting the leaves. I love how the white embossing gives the veins on the leaves, a glossy look.
The Petal Pink Designer Series Paper was die cut using the second and third smallest labels from the Beautifully Celebrated Dies, before applying some Petal Pink ink to the edges with a Sponge Dauber. These two were adhered together then the larger one popped up on Stampin' Dimensionals. The tips of the leaves were also popped up on Stampin' Dimensionals, as was the sentiment strip.
