Amazing Paper Grace | The Seasonal Label Motifs Collection Intro Blog Hop

On By patriciamanhireIn Amazing Paper Grace, Patricia's Creations1 Comment

I have two cards and a tag to share with you today to celebrate the launch of the beautiful Amazing Paper Grace Seasonal Motifs collection by Becca Feeken. I loved the simplicity of the card that has been created for the packaging and made a card and tag creating a scene with the dies in the Amazing Paper Grace Winter Label Motifs Etched Dies from Seasonal Label Motifs Collection by Becca Feeken My second card has been inspired by a card by Becca Feeken where she has used this gorgeous background die as a pink on pink card for the Right Words Collection

Projects created today were used with dies provided by Amazing Paper Grace.

My Projects for Today

I have created two cards and a tag using the Amazing Paper Grace Winter Label Motifs Etched Dies from Seasonal Label Motifs Collection by Becca Feeken. I have created a winter themed card and coordinating tag using all the dies in the set that could be also be used for Christmas cards. My second card features the beautiful Amazing Paper Grace Anabelle’s Trousseau Layering Frame Medium die by Becca Feeken to create a base for the label dies, birthday sentiment from the Amazing Paper Grace Happy Occasion Words Etched Dies from the Right Words Collection by Becca Feeken and pretty flowers from the Amazing Paper Grace Petite Floral Bouquet Die set by Becca Feeken.


The Amazing Paper Grace Winter Label Motifs Etched Dies from Seasonal Label Motifs Collection by Becca Feeken consists of 17 dies to create gorgeous scenes for cards, scrapbooks and home decor.

The Amazing Paper Grace Seasonal Motif Sentiments Clear Stamp Set from Seasonal Label Motifs Collection by Becca Feeken is designed to coordinate with the Amazing Paper Grace Seasonal Motifs collection by Becca Feeken.

I have added texture using the Spellbinders Forever Green embossing folder and die cut the label in the centre out using the smaller label die from the Amazing Paper Grace Winter Label Motifs Etched Dies from Seasonal Label Motifs Collection by Becca Feeken and then added the frame to the card front using foam tape. This has created a recess for the decorated inner label to fit into. I then die cut a frame using the outer and inner label die out of the blue cardstock to create a frame for the inner decorated scene.

I have ink blended the background for the centre to create a snowy background.

I have used two different colour greens to create some depth to the trees.

The small house has been die cut out of white and blue cardstock and I trimmed the smoke of the house of the blue die and added it to the white die. And adding the white windows and white roof has helped to give some dimension to the house and enabled it to stand out from the trees and fence.

This tag is great to add to a gift for Christmas or just because…

I have die cut the outside label using white cardstock and then die cut a frame using the outer and inner label die out of the blue cardstock to create a frame for the inner decorated scene.

For my second card I have added the blue decorative dies from the beautiful Amazing Paper Grace Anabelle’s Trousseau Layering Frame Medium die by Becca Feeken to the blue background and added some silver accents to create more interest.

I have adhered the blue sentiment to the silver sentiment and slightly offset the sentiments to create a shadow on the card.

Clear iridescent jewels add some sparkle to the card.

Butterflies are always welcome on a floral bouquet.

The labels are perfect to add to a pretty base and add the sentiment of your choices.

The larger leaves are from the Amazing Paper Grace Layered Lilies Etched Dies from the Layered Fleur Bouquet Slimlines Collection by Becca Feeken and I have used the smaller leaves from the Amazing Paper Grace Winter Label Motifs Etched Dies from Seasonal Label Motifs Collection by Becca Feeken.

Beautiful Sentiment Vignettes I Heartfelt Thanks

On By patriciamanhireIn Amazing Paper Grace, Patricia's Creations2 Comments

Beautiful card front sentiments do the heavy lifting on a card and the recipient knows exactly what you are trying to say. In that spirit, today we are introducing a new collection called Beautiful Sentiment Vignettes. It spins beautiful, intertwined calligraphic words into a compact label shape, perfect for the front of your card.

Dies for my creations today were supplied by Amazing Paper Grace.

Beautiful Sentiment Vignettes Inspiration

Many Amazing Paper Grace followers were so thrilled when the first 3D Vignettes with word inserts came out. Over time, our followers have asked for a greater variety of words to fit into the 3D Vignette apertures. Your wish is our command!

Beautiful Sentiment Vignettes Collection

The Beautiful Sentiment Vignettes Collection is made up of 7 different die sets and a stamp set. Most sets contain a sentiment and a filigree background layer. Each set makes it quite easy to produce a complete card. The bonus is the sentiment shapes each match an existing 3D Vignette. Along with being able to complete a card, the new sentiments will allow another sentiment to existing 3D Vignettes already in your stash. Romantic Chargeour works with all the sentiments.

Beautiful Sentiment Vignettes Collection also contains an “inside” sentiment set that matches the thought on the outside of the card. To top off the collection we’ve included Petite Floral Potpourri. It’s a compilation of all the small flowers and leaves that are most requested by our community.

My Projects for Today

For my projects I’m using the Amazing Paper Grace Heartfelt Thanks Vignette Etched Dies from Beautiful Sentiment Vignettes Collection by Becca Feeken decorated with some pretty flowers made with the gorgeous flowers from the Amazing Paper Grace Petite Floral Potpourri Etched Dies from Beautiful Sentiment Vignettes Collection by Becca Feeken.

I love how you can mix and match Amazing Paper Grace dies to create beautiful cards. Here I have used the Amazing Paper Grace Annabelle’s Trousseau Layering Frame Medium Etched Dies Chantilly Paper Lace Collection by Becca Feeken as a background to the Amazing Paper Grace Heartfelt Thanks Vignette Etched Dies from Beautiful Sentiment Vignettes Collection by Becca Feeken. To finish I have added the Amazing Paper Grace Elegant Twist Ovals Etched Dies from the Elegant Twist Collection by Becca Feeken to frame the sentiment.

I have used Amazing Paper Grace Petite Floral Potpourri Etched Dies from Beautiful Sentiment Vignettes Collection by Becca Feeken to create some wisterias to finish the card. The leaves are from the Amazing Paper Grace Sweet Cottage Flowers Etched Dies 3D Vignette Mini Album Collection by Becca Feeken. There will be a tutorial on how I have made these flowers on the Amazing Paper Grace – Encouragement Group on Facebook here.

Designers Tip:

Have fun mixing and matching Amazing Paper Grace dies to create flowers to create your cards..

For my projects I’m using the Amazing Paper Grace Forever in our Memory Vignette Etched Dies from Beautiful Sentiment Vignettes Collection by Becca Feeken I have decorated the card with some beautiful handmade roses from the Amazing Paper Grace Candlewick Rosebud Etched Dies Candlewick Sampler Collection by Becca Feeken and some filler flowers from the Amazing Paper Grace Petite Floral Potpourri Etched Dies from Beautiful Sentiment Vignettes Collection by Becca Feeken.

For my card I have layered silver and white card as a background for the decorative dies. I have added some pearlescent vellum under the dies to create a lovely soft look to the card. To finish I have added some irridescent gems on the flowers and the card.

I have a tutorial on how I have created the roses with watercolour paints on the Amazing Paper Grace – Encouragement Group.

Designers Tip:

For my card I have used the outline decorative die as a stencil and coloured with some inks to match my background cardstock. To finish the stencil look I have embossed the die to make the colours pop out of the background. I have then die cut three sentiment dies and layered them together for more dimension and to make the sentiment stand out. I kept the flowers simple to allow the sentiment be the focus.

Designers Tip:

Be creative with your die cuts and look at using them as stencils.

For my card I have used the outer frame die to created a shaped card base which I decorated with duck egg blue and white layered dies. The inner decorative dies have been turned around to help stabilise the shaped card when standing up. To finish the card front I have added some handcrafted flowers made using the flowers and leaves from the Amazing Paper Grace Petite Floral Potpourri Etched Dies from Beautiful Sentiment Vignettes Collection by Becca Feeken.

I have finished the card with this lovely sentiment from the Amazing Paper Grace Beautiful Inside and Out Sentiments Clear Stamp from Beautiful Sentiment Vignettes Collection by Becca Feeken.

I have added the flowers to the front and two middle layers to create a feeling of depth and dimension to the 3D vignette.

Designers Tip:

Make lots of flowers so you always have some on hand for last minute cards.

We Wish You a Merry Christmas

We all love interactive and kinetic cards! Introducing the Christmas Cascade Collection!

This holiday collection allows you to make a Cascading Card inside of a Shadowbox Frame, mounted on a card base or unmounted. Don’t worry, these motifs make great conventional cards as well.

We listened to you, and we heard loud and clear that our community loves dynamic and purposeful cards. In previous collections we gave you 3D Vignettes in a Christmas way.  Now we’ve found a way to merge a Collection favorite, Shadowbox Vignettes, in a new format.   

Becca Feeken with Amazing Paper Grace sent me these lovely dies to start my Christmas Card making!

What’s a Christmas Cascade?
Amazing Paper Grace takes a spin on Christmas by building a new collection around something you already have in your stash – the Shadowbox Dies.  Becca loves building upon what you already have and making it new again. 

Christmas Cascade is made up of sets of 3″ motif dies where each set has 3 motifs.  That’s enough for each leaf of your waterfall but again, you could make them the center of your A2 or your A7 card. These, paired with the Waterfall base will allow you to use any dies to make your next Waterfall Card.

The Inspiration behind Christmas Cascade

The inspiration for Christmas Cascade was to produce a motif to use from an enclosure card all the way up to full A7 card with background layers.  This “cardlet” size has been a favorite in our stash because the elements can easily transition into all of the Amazing Paper Grace Collections and to all size cards.  Hint:  This is not the last time you will see “Cardlets”

Today I am really excited to share with you a very elegant card made with the gorgeous new Elegant Holiday Glimmer Sentiments Glimmer Hot Foil Plate Christmas Cascade Collection by Becca Feeken. I have embellished this card with the beautiful poinsettias from the Shapeabilities Cinch and Go Poinsettia Etched Dies Etched Dies A Charming Christmas Collection by Becca Feeken as well as adding some accents from the Christmas Cascade Collection – Snowflake Splendor Etched Dies Christmas Cascade Collection by Becca Feeken and the Holly Frame Gala Etched Dies Christmas Cascade Collection by Becca Feeken. The background die is the beautiful Shapeabilities Ornamental Valance Etched Dies Flourished Fretwork by Becca Feeken.

If you want to learn how to make these blue poinsettias I have a free video here on the Amazing Paper Grace Creative Encouragement Facebook Group on Facebook.

I am so happy to have most of my Christmas cards done early for a change and it has been so easy with the Christmas Cascade collection.
