Hello crafty friends! I’m so excited to be joining Simon Says Stamp in Day 2 of their Out Of This World Blog Hop! So many fun and amazing new products!
First, let’s take about this amazing FREE gift shown above. You can receive a set of Distress Crayons for FREE with the code GALAXY! Valid only util 6/25 at 11:59 pm ET or white supplies last.
I’m using the Mid Century Ethereal cover die for my card project.
I started by die cutting it multiple times from white cardstock and layering them together for dimension using liquid glue.
For the background, I decided to pull out one of my paper pads that I hoard. This one is from the Craft Consortium Ink Drops Candy paper pack. It is so hard using one of these paper pads because they are so gorgeous but I love the look behind this panel.
For the sentiment, I stamped Birthday Wishes from the Big Old Birthday stamp set and used the coordinating die to cut it out.
Quite simple of a card to put together but wow! Those designs with that background are just so cool!

That die is wonderful and the paper behind it makes it very special, too!
Thank you for the great inspiration. Love how you used the paper and die
I love it, beautiful and quick. Great cover die.
Wow, terrific idea to use designer paper as your background for this new die. Love your card. ❤
Great use of the patterned paper.
Super cool card
Clever way to use the die.
I love that die and the paper you chose is perfect!
Love your background with this die!
What is it that makes us hoard our paper?? Glad you were willing to use some to make a great card
I love this card! Such a pretty background! Thanks for the inspiration!
So pretty! Great background paper as well.
Mindy, though this cover die is not one of my favourites, the card you created is lovely. The colourful background looks great with the white layered panel.
I love the way you showed off the beautiful colors in that paper with the cool new cover plate! So pretty!
Love the background!
Such a pretty background!
Mindy I love your cards.. you do such beautiful work!!♥️♥️♥️
Love the simplicity and the colors behind the plate. WoW
So good, yet simple. I love this!!!
I recognized the background paper on this card right away and I have to agree that all these inky affects papers from Craft Consortium are so hard to use because they are so beautiful. I really love how it works with this die. This die is a little unconventional for me, but looks so art deco, which fascinates me. The simplicity of this card is so appealing and I will have to get the die. The papers I have!!! And Memory Box dies always release so nice without much work, making multiple cards so pleasurable. Thanks for this inspiration!
I recognized the background paper right away! I just love the inky effects papers from Craft Consortium and have the same problem with using them as they are so pretty. This papers will definitely increase the WOW factor of any project. This die is unconventional for me, but reminds me of art deco which I adore so is going to be a must in my cart after seeing it used with this card! Can see using it to cut from the background paper and using the cut out pieces for a reverse image card! Thanks for your inspiration!
Gorgeous card!!!! I love that plate!!!
Love this modern design!!
CSA design – love it! Great release and on my wish list!
What a cool card! I love that background showing through the die cut panel 🙂
How beautiful, I love that bit of interest peeking through the die-cut parts!
Beautiful. I love the background with the white die frame.
Fantastic card! I really love the cover die over that background!
Great job
Gorgeous card! Love the cover die.
Thanks for sharing.
Love the geometric pattern!
Great card. Haven’t done a modern card like that. Might have to try.
This is absolutely gorgeous! love the panel on that background!
What a great way to use that die! I’m pinning this card design!
Hola, Mindy! Gorgeous background! It’s so beautiful!
Love the hold; and the tip to use the negative space!
The background in this card is stunning. I can understand why you hoard the sheets! I wouldn’t want to use them, either.
So simple to make-but great return of a finished card
Wow! Cool card!
Love your card! Great way to use all that wonderful patterned paper in our stash!
wow this design is stunning – LOVE the inset colors
Great inspiration, thank you!
Nice use for the paper pad. Looks great behind the design.
Very pretty! Thank you for brightening my day!
That’s such a smart use for your Craft Consortium papers! Love how your card turned out.
This is such a cute and colorful graphic design. Thanks for sharing these new products.
Love this card Mindy! So quick and gorgeous!
Beautiful card and I love the die and the paper behind it so much. I have several of those packs of paper and love them!!
Amazing way to use your die cut and pattern paper together.
Wow, LOVE this card! Did you use lighter cardstock, so it stacks up easier? I think 110lb cardstock is hard to get a clean cut from a die, at least my experience with that weight paper. I like the hefty dimension to the front panel, really adds to the wow factor. Thank you for teaching me something new, but I hope you will comment on my question. Much obliged.
This was 100lb cardstock
