Bright Vintage Notecards - Tim Holtz June coordinating die release

Good morning! I've got one last thing to share with the June 2026 installment of Tim Holtz coordinating dies that released recently from Simon Says Stamp! This time instead of one card, I'm sharing a sweet little set of notecards! They are the small 4 Bar notecards from SSS, and the perfect size to let these sweet little images shine. And I found a fun way to do the banner dies to add extra dimension!


I started off by die cutting and creating the backgrounds. I used Lime, Lake, Heather, and Princess Color Splash cardstocks, cut with the Crimped A2 Rectangles, then cut watercolor paper using a smaller sized A2 Rectangles die. On the watercolor paper, I blended the coordinating ink colors of Lime, Lake, Heather, and Princess onto two corners of the panels, then misted with some water for a watercolor effect. While those dried, I stamped and heat embossed my images from Tiny Things and Tiny Things 2 sets, stamping in Nocturne ink, then clear heat embossing for extra shine. I die cut them each with their coordinating dies. I also stamped the "Hello Friend" from Tiny Text a few times, and die cut with the smallest banner die from the coordinating die set. I also cut the next largest banner die for each one to layer underneath. That way, when I adhered them together with foam adhesive, it gave them a more dimensional banner look - and it was so easy! I added some Black Splatter to my little cardbases, then assembled all my layers, using Big Momma foam adhesive so I could have lots of layers, but they wouldn't get too thick. Finished off with a few Clear Dazzling gems for the final touch of sparkle! Here is a closer look at each of these sweet cards:
