New Framed Scenes Bundle & the Botanical Textures Designer Series Paper FUN Fold Card!

Hello Stampin’ Friends!

I’m so excited to share a Fun Fold card with you today, featuring the brand-new Framed Scenes Bundle and the Botanical Textures Designer Series Paper! These two products pair beautifully to create a cozy, nature-inspired card that’s perfect for any occasion.

The Framed Scenes Stamp Set is all about capturing peaceful moments in nature. With five detailed, colorable images—including a charming cottage, lighthouse, treehouse, and more—you can create serene little landscapes for your projects. Whether you use them as a card’s focal point or an accent piece for a scrapbook layout, these images add a lovely touch of rustic charm. And don’t forget the coordinating Framed Scenes Dies! They allow you to cut out your vignettes effortlessly and even include a woodgrain die for adding natural texture.

To complement these stamps and dies, I chose the Botanical Textures 12” x 12” Designer Series Paper—You’ll love the versatility of the Botanical Textures Paper, which combines organic designs with grayscale tones! With both large-scale and small-scale designs, this paper works great for both card making and scrapbooking.
