Greeting Cards Featuring Toile Stamps


Looking for ink colors to complement the September color palette? We recommend pairing the Toile Stamps with Sapphire, Ash, Caramel, and Lt. Blue CS® Hybrid ink.

Card 1

Stamp the dragonfly onto White paper with Sapphire Ink. Add the sentiment with Caramel Ink.

Remove the images from the White panel with a circle die*. Cut a scalloped circle* from a piece of Dk. Blue paper to create a mat for the panel.

Center the stamped panel onto the scalloped circle*. Glue a 5-1/2x1" Gray strip horizontally onto a folded Tan card base. Add the die cut accent piece over the strip to complete the card. 

Card 2

Stamp the large floral image onto a White panel with Lt. Blue Ink.

Add the sentiment with Sapphire Ink. Stamp the small bird above the sentiment with Lt. Blue Ink.

Trim the handmade paper to 4x5-1/4".

Crop the stamped panel to 3-3/8x5-1/8"; mat with a 3-1/2x4-3/4" Dk. Blue panel. Center all of the layered panels onto a folded Dk. Blue card base to complete the card.

Card 3

Stamp the small butterfly images repeatedly onto a Tan panel with Caramel Ink, leaving the bottom right corner free of images.

Add the sentiment with Sapphire Ink along the bottom right edge of the panel.

Distress the edges of the Tan panel with Sapphire Ink.

Center a 1x5-1/2" Dk. Blue strip horizontally onto a folded Gray base. Add the stamped panel to the base to complete the card.

Card 4

Add the deer image to a White panel with Caramel Ink.

Position the sentiment slightly overlapping the deer antlers. Note: I forgot to remove the deer stamp from the cover prior to taking this photo. It was removed before the next step.

Pick up the stamp with the cover of the stamping platform. Apply Sapphire Ink to the stamp and close the cover to transfer the image. Re-ink the stamp as necessary until the desired saturation of color is achieved.

Trim the stamped panel to 3-3/4x4". Layer and adhere to the top of a 4x5-1/4" Tan mat. Trim a piece of blue ribbon slightly wider than the mat. Wrap the ribbon ends around the back of the panel.

Secure the ends with clear tape.

Add Bookbinding Glue dispensed from a Needle-tipped applicator to the back of the Embroidered Flower. Adhere over the ribbon as shown to complete the card.

Card 5

Create a background for the White panel with the flower image and Ash Ink. Remember to allow the stamped images to "fall off" the edges of the paper to mimic a "real" print.

Stamp the sentiment onto a small White strip with Lt. Blue Ink.

Cut a 2" circle from Lt. Blue paper with a die*.  Stamp a wreath onto the circle with Lt. Blue Ink (stamp the floral arch twice to create the wreath shape).

Adhere all the elements to complete the card.

Card 6

Stamp the deer image onto a White Panel with Ash Ink.

 Add the sentiment with Lt. Blue Ink.

Trim the stamped panel and mat with a Gray panel. Thread Gold satin ribbon through the hole in the Butterfly Charm. Secure in place with a simple knot.

Trim the ribbon 1" longer than the panel. Wrap the ends around the back and secure with clear tape. Adhere the panels over a handmade paper panel to complete the card.

Card 7

Create a background with the large floral image and Lt. Blue Ink. Pro tip: Mount larger stamps on a 1/8" Grid Ruler. The thin ruler helps achieve a cleaner image on the first try.

Stamp the dragonfly image onto a White panel repeatedly with Sapphire Ink. 

Add the sentiment to a small White strip with Sapphire Ink..

Tie the gray ribbon into a small bow.

Layer a Dk. Blue panel at an angle with the dragonfly panel. Cut a large Gray circle with a die*. Adhere the circle over the angled panels. Adhere the Embroidered Flower and bow next to the sentiment to complete the card.
