Quick Cards With Kintsugi Inspirations

I have always loved the ideas and symbolism of Kintsugi–the Japanese art of mending broken pottery with gold, silver, or platinum. The cracks become a thing of beauty, celebrating the scars rather than hiding them. It honors the history of the pottery. It’s a beautiful philosophy that we can apply to our own lives!

So, I was really excited about Stampin’ Up’s Kintsugi Inspirations Suite. I knew it would make beautiful cards. The DSP is really pretty, and it has images that can be cut with the dies. In fact, there is one sheet that can be cut into 13 vases, 13 cups, and 13 flowers! Check it out!

I turned these images into 13 cards! Here are four of them.

Thirteen cards from ONE SHEET of DSP! And I still have another sheet just like it! Not to mention all the other beautiful papers.

Quick Card Using STAMPS, INK, and PAPER (SIP!)

I made this card using the Artistic Leaves stamp set.

I made the card base using Crushed Curry cardstock. I used Cherry Cobbler to mat the white cardstock stamped with the leaves. The leaves were stamped in Crushed Curry and Cherry Cobbler as well. The sentiment was stamped with Cherry Cobbler ink. I LOVE the stamp that makes the little dots. I think they add such a nice touch!

The card is great as is, but I always like to add an embellishment! I used the opal rounds assortment, which contains the transparent yellow dots.

For the inside, I stamped a leaf going off the page. I stamped off so it would be lighter in color.

This was a quick card to make, and I think it is just so beautiful for fall!

Measurements:

  • Crushed Curry Cardstock – 8-1/2 x 5-1/2 inches, score at 4-1/4 to make an A2 sized card base
  • Cherry Cobbler Cardstock – 5-5/16 x 4-1/16 inches
  • Basic White – 5-1/8 x 3-7/8 inches

Paper Pumpkin Sweet Strawberry Cards

I finally sat down and put together these sweet strawberry cards in the July 2025 Paper Pumpkin kit.

Even for the experienced crafter, these are just so much fun to put together! Just grab the box and an acrylic block (you get one in your first Paper Pumpkin kit) and you are ready to make cards!

My favorite is the one with the strawberry box!
