A Berry Beautiful Anniversary Card

Hello, friends!

Windows are open, the light is pouring in, and I'm in the mood for florals — so today's card leans all the way into that with the gorgeous Berry Botanical Vellum Specialty Designer Series Paper. If you haven't worked with this paper yet, you are in for a treat. The vellum florals have a soft, translucent quality that makes them look almost hand-painted once they're fussy cut and layered, and I thought it was the perfect fit for celebrating a couple's blossoming years together.

Getting the Look

I started with a soft lavender grid pattern from the Designer Series Paper collection as my base — it's subtle enough to let the focal elements shine without competing with them.

For the star of the show, I fussy cut individual blooms and berries right out of the Berry Botanical Vellum paper — golden berry clusters, blue florals, and rich red and plum blossoms. I layered them onto an angled label shape from the Classic Labels Mix & Match Ephemera Pack, tucking in a few leaves underneath to ground the arrangement. Because the paper is vellum, everything has this beautiful soft, see-through quality that catches the light differently than cardstock ever could — it almost looks hand-painted once it's all layered together.

The Sentiment

The "Happy Anniversary" sentiment comes from the Phrases and Frames stamp set — such a versatile set to have on hand! I heat embossed it in gold embossing powder and tucked it right in among the florals so it reads as part of the bouquet rather than sitting separately on top. That warm gold script gives the whole design a little extra shimmer and elegance. Inside, I kept the coordinating sentiment simple, stamped in Fresh Freesia ink to echo the colors on the front for a cohesive finish from cover to inside.

The Finishing Touches

To add a bit of sparkle and dimension, I scattered several Pretty in Pink 2024–2026 In-Color Flat Pearls across the design — a few nestled right into the floral cluster, and several more floating across the grid background for movement and balance.

The combination of the vellum florals, the angled label frame, and the gold-embossed "Happy Anniversary" sentiment gives this card a soft, romantic, garden-gathered feel — perfect for celebrating a couple's special day!

A Shimmering Anniversary Card with the Floral Spray 3D Embossing Folder

Today's card is all about texture and shimmer! I'm so excited to share this anniversary card made using the brand new Floral Spray 3D Embossing Folder along with the new In-Color Shimmer Brushes.

I started with a Peaceful Pine cardstock card base, layered with the gorgeous Peaceful Pine 2026-2028 In-Color Pearlized Specialty Paper for a subtle shimmer right from the start. For the top panel, I embossed Basic White cardstock using the Floral Spray 3D Embossing Folder, which gives such beautiful raised dimension to the floral design.

To bring the embossed florals and leaves to life, I colored the raised areas using the new In-Color Shimmer Brushes paired with coordinating Light Stampin' Blends. The soft Barely Blush magnolia, the white and Golden Glow daisies, and the Peaceful Pine leaves all got a gentle wash of color that settles beautifully into the embossed texture. A few touches of Wink of Stella add sparkle here and there, catching the light on the petals and leaves.

For the sentiment on the front, I stamped "Happy Anniversary" from the Phrases and Frames stamp set in Peaceful Pine ink onto a label from the Classic Labels Mix & Match Ephemera Pack, then tucked it into the corner of the design. A few of the 2026-2028 In-Color Dots in Crisp Cantaloupe were scattered across the front of the card for little pops of color.


Inside the card, I kept it simple with another sentiment from the Phrases and Frames stamp set, stamped in Peaceful Pine ink: "Anniversaries are for celebrating the joys of today, the memories of yesterday, and the hopes of tomorrow." Such a sweet thought for any couple celebrating their special day.

I love how the shimmer brushes and Wink of Stella add just the right amount of sparkle without overpowering the soft, romantic color palette. This card would be perfect for an anniversary, or really any occasion calling for a touch of elegant floral beauty!
