Hi Crafters,
Ready to create something truly special and oh-so-elegant? This week, we’re bringing you a charming card project using the Harlequin Bow Dies and Basket Cardstock. Think graceful layers, rich lavender foil, and a floral collage that’s just your style. With a hint of French memo board flair, this card is as thoughtful as it is beautiful.
Let’s take a look at what comes in the Harlequin Bow Dies set! You’ll get beautifully intricate dies that create layered ribbon-style backgrounds, a delicate bow, tag, and accents that make embellishing a breeze. Pair this with your Basket Cardstock and Luxury Matte Foil in Lavender and you’ve got a card base with texture, shine and plenty of style.
Let’s get started on making this beauty!
First, cut your card base using the Basket Cardstock and mount it onto a 5x7 gold card. The woven texture gives such a lovely backdrop.
Next, diecut the Harlequin Bow Die twice in the lavender luxury foil cardstock. This creates dimension and a layered memo board effect.

Add your Basket Cardstock layer to a 5x7 gold card.

Add your first bow die layer to the card base using foam adhesive. It's already looking so pretty!

Now you, tuck a purple floral sticker from the Celebrations Floral Stickers into the bottom left corner.

Layer your second bow die cut directly over the first one. Offset just slightly to add that extra pop of depth.

Weave in gold foil flourishes and more Celebration Stickers all around the layered bow. Let them peek out like tucked notes in a vintage memo board.

Continue building up to the top left of your card, layering stickers and flourishes as you go.

Finish it off with the gold bow, a butterfly and a tiny tag sticker for a polished and dimensional touch.

You'll love making cards with this set and all of your favorite embellishments.

This card is absolutely stunning and so fun to personalize. What’s great is how the China Cabinet Mini Stickers are perfectly sized to tuck into the bow design—just the thing for that extra special detail.

You’ll love experimenting with different florals, sentiments, and foils. This set lets you make something heartfelt and handmade every time.

There’s something so satisfying about creating a card that’s layered with love and packed with meaning. Whether it’s a birthday, a note of encouragement or a sweet hello, this project will make someone’s day. We’d love to see how you style your Harlequin Bow creations!

Love the idea of using this with summer beach memories
This is one of my go-to dies. It is so versatile I have used it for Birthday, Christmas, and Valentine’s already since purchasing it. It is easy to use. You can dress it up to the nines or use more subtle embellishments. The sky is the limit with this die. It is like my Basket Easel; it gets a workout when I use it because I can use it for so many occasions. I think it would be a great magnet on the fridge to tuck reminders in.
Happy Crafting!
Such a beautiful and stunning card, love the color palette. Everyone have a wonderful day and may God bless you all.
Oh so pretty!
