Welcome back to another fantastic Mixed Media Project for the month of June. With this project we are using a portion of all three of the 2026 June Kits from Tres Jolie. We will be having fun with the solar paste's, using the gorgeous botanical design papers along with layering the mixed media items we create. These dimensional cards give a shabby chic look with deep, vibrant jewel tones which will give a little inspiration to everyone! I have the step by step tutorial down below, and the video tutorial for you as well.

2026 June Card, Tag and More Kit
Card #1
To begin we will be tracing around the outside of the stencil. This will create our card base.
Next trace the smaller card but the first line around. Next cut both out.
To create the mats, trace the second line from the inside to form the mat for the larger card and the second line from the inside for the smaller card mat.
Next adhere the mats to both cards. Then fold the smaller card up and glue down the left and right side to create a small pocket to adhere to the front of the card as shown below. In the photo below I cut out two of each of the dies. I then added the solar paste deep end and royal flush to black cardstock and placed the small hearts on to cut them out. Adhere the small hearts to the dies.

Next I took the "Thank You" chipboard and applied the solar past royal flush to the words and the deep end to the scrolls. ( I did not apply any gesso to the chipboard piece)
Here is the finished card.
Card #2
Again trace around the outside of the stencil on the purple 12x12 cardstock from the card kit. This creates our card base, next trace the second line from the inside to create our mat. You will only need half of the card mat traced.
Next take the black cardstock mat we just cut out. Use a stencil to apply solar paste's around. I used the royal flush first and applied to various areas, then used deep end and applied that to the other areas.

Once you're done take off the stencil and let dry for a minute, it doesn't take long. You will have a beautiful array of colors and it will show a different in color in the light when turned a different way.
To finish off the card I decorated with the June Card Kit flowers and then added a sentiment from the Paper Rose's paper collection.
Card #3
For our last card take the solar paste's and apply then to a piece of black card stock and in different areas.

Next use an embossing folder to emboss the cardstock. Below this is what your cardstock should look like. These solar paste's make terrific backgrounds and just really add a beautiful vibrant look to the cards.
Next I cut my design papers and layered them. I did use foam tape on the floral and embossed papers.
Next I used some of the flowers, frames and ephemera from the June Scrapbook Kit.
I did add some white splatters to the card.

Here is the finished card.
Creating these dimensional cards gives a shabby chic look with deep, vibrant jewel tones that anyone would love to receive. We created textures combined with layered frames and used stenciling to create dark backgrounds with rich blues and purples.

2026 June Scrapbook Kit 2026 June Mixed Media Kit
First we are going to paint the chipboard frame with black paint or gesso. I used black gesso. Set aside to dry.
Next we are going to cover the canvas with one of the design papers from the 2026 June Scrapbook Kit. I chose this beautiful lavender one with dresses on it. Place adhesive down on the top portion of the canvas first, adhere the paper, and burnish down. Then do the bottom half of the canvas and burnish down.
Next tape down you stencil where you would like the flowers.
Next I took both Solar Pastes from the 2026 June Mixed Media Kit and added some re-inker ink to each one, the royal flush and the deep end. (View Video Tutorial for more details)
Next use either a sponge or dauber to apply the solar paste to each flower.
For the leaves I used a green ink pad and for the swirls I used vintage photo distress ink.
Here is the finished stencil.
After the chipboard frame dries I added the Solar Paste Royal Flush to the the frame. You can apply with dauber, finger or paint brush. I used a dauber and fingers. Use a toothpick to get the paste out of the opened areas for a clean look to the frame.
Next adhere the frame over your stenciled flowers and start decorating your canvas. I also applied Solar Paste Royal Flush to the dress, bow on the top of the frame and a few other areas around the canvas.
Here's a close up on the dress I added Solar Paste Royal Flush to the dress and
then added gold stickels.

Looking for some shabby chic, vintage-inspired card inspiration? In today's tutorial, we are crafting beautiful, multi-layered floral cards that are perfect for gift-giving using the 2026 May Scrapbook Kit, a few things Mixed Media Kit and Card Kit. We'll walk through how to build rich, textured layers using gorgeous botanical prints, 3D paper elements, delicate trims, and perfectly place sentiments.
2026 May Scrapbook Kit
To start our first card cut cardstock at 7x6 inches and score at 3 1/2 inches.
For this card we will be using a few chipboard items.
First I'm using this chipboard window, I applied some grit paste on top, using a heat gun to dry it.
Then applied some white gesso again using a heat gun to dry or you can let air dry.
Next I grabbed some of the Stamperia Mixed Media Aquamarine(2026 May Mixed Media Kit) spray and spritzed all over the window.
I then took some of the white Stamperia Mixed Media spray (2026 May Mixed Media Kit) and flicked on the window to give a weather worn look. Set aside to let dry.
Next I used the long leaf swirl chipboard (May Scrapbook Kit), inking the stems with Distress Vintage Photo.
I took some Distress paint Evergreen Bough and blended into the leaves.
This is the end result. It's just beautiful
I just love how both of these coordinate really well with the paper. I layered the window on top of the leaf swirls.
Here is a close up of how I decorated the window using the flowers & berries from the Scrapbook Kit and I fussy cut out the bird from the border packet from the Season's Kit.
Here is the finished card
Gift Card Holder Card
For the next two cards I cut 1 piece of 8 x 11 inch cardstock into two pieces measuring 4x11 inches.
Score both pieces at 2 1/2 and 6 3/4 inches.
Once scored place glue on the left side in the middle part of the card and along the top below the score line.
Here is what the finished card should look like. punch a little half circle on the right side for the insert to pull out. The insert measures 3 3/4 x 3 3/4 inches. This is for any sentiments or attach a gift card.
Here is the finished cards down below. I used the 2026 Card Kit sentiment and other little elements. I used the flowers from the Scrapbook Kit.
Here is the finished card opened.
Using the some of the elements from the 2026 Card Kit for decorating the card.
