STAMPlorations Monday 7/13/2026

it's Monday and that means it is my day to showcase my STAMPlorations projects here. You can also view them and see more detail on the STAMPlorations Blog.


Today, both of my projects feature The Parisian Cafean elegantly curated pack from The Artistic Crafter's Collage Paper Anthology, Vol. 1. This collection masterfully layers vintage French typography and antique ledger scripts with vibrant, high-impact imagery of espresso, flaky croissants, and lush floral blooms.



For my first card, I stenciled the right side of the top panel using the new Henna Pattern Stencil to add texture to the kraft background. Next, I fussy cut images from two of the collage papers and arranged them on the left side of the panel for a balanced design. To finish the card, I added a sentiment from the Coffee Backgrounds collection, which is filled with fun coffee-themed sentiments, and then adhered the completed panel to an ivory card base.



For my second card, I used the Zen Coffee #1 Cover Plate with the eclipse technique, which creates a beautiful floating 3D illusion. I die cut three layers of the cover plate from ivory cardstock and one layer from the Parisian Cafe patterned paper. After gluing all four layers together, I placed the stacked die cut over the solid background, carefully aligning the pattern for a seamless look. To finish the card, I added a tag tied with a piece of ribbon and a die-cut sentiment for a simple yet elegant finishing touch.
