The Super-Awesome Fun Time Card Kits with the Charming Day Bundle were mailed out earlier this week. Usually, after wrapping up a kit, I need a little time away from it since I’ve worked so closely with the bundle for so long. Charming Day, though, has kept my creativity buzzing—I just couldn’t put it down! Here’s a card I made to share with you:
Here’s a look at the Charming Day Bundle, which includes the stamp set I used for this card:
Remember triple-time stamping? There was a season when it seemed like every card we made had layers of perfectly aligned images stamped across all the panels. It’s still a great go-to technique, but I gave it a little twist by keeping it to just two layers.
I added a thin layer of Multipurpose Liquid Glue to the back of a 2-5/8″ square of Cloud Cover cardstock. After letting it dry, I temporarily adhered it to the card base and stamped the large flower in the bottom-left and top-right corners—stamping across both layers at once. I then peeled away the square, framed it with Basic White and Secret Sea layers, and popped it up with Dimensionals. Here’s a closer look:
Why Cloud Cover and Secret Sea? These 2025-2027 In Colors gave me the perfect excuse to remind you about the In Color Sale happening right now—cardstock, inks, ribbons, embellishments, kits, and Designer Series Papers that feature the new In Colors are all 15% off this month. Such a great deal!
To finish things off, I added a trio of Secret Sea flat pearls from the 2025-2027 In Color Flat Pearls (also 15% off!) to highlight the sentiment from the Charming Day stamp set. Love!
Do you adore these soft blue and blue-gray tones as much as I do? If the mix of Cloud Cover, Basic Gray, and Secret Sea makes your heart happy, I hope you’ll save this combo for future inspiration:

Hi Brian
Thanks for sharing that technique! I really like the 2- layers!
That 3 color combination is a keeper.
Thanks so much, Dawn! It’s a classy combination of tones, isn’t it?
This technique always looks great and I really like your 2 layer version. I thank you for the inspiration because I had forgotten all about this technique and now I can play. Awesome card as always.
Thanks so much, Bobbi! Always wonderful to hear from you. ♥
Secret Sea is the new black. Love this color combination. My super awesome fun time kit arrives tomorrow and I’m looking forward to playing!
I can’t wait to hear what you think, Vicki! We had fun with the kit. I couldn’t agree with you more – Secret Sea is a keeper. ♥
Your idea of “double time” stamping instead of triple time is a great idea!
I know some pre teens who would probably enjoy trying this! Thanks for a fun New technique!
I love it! Thanks so much, Barbara! I can’t wait to see what you make. ♥
A greatColor combo and a fun technique~what’s not to love?
And you know me: I’m all about the LAYERS! ♥️
🙂 Thanks so much, Linda! I’m happy you appreciate my layers. ♥
Brian, this card is so pretty with the layers and the great color combination. Cloud Cover is becoming a favorite of mine. Enjoy your Friday!
Thanks so much, Hilda! I stayed away from Cloud Cover at first because of the ink not being in stock, but … I’m over that now. Cloud Cover and Secret Sea on everything! 🙂
Love you his card! Can you provide measurements/recipe to create? Thank you
