Easy Mixed Media Layered Cards for Tres Jolie Kit Club

Hello My Creative Friends! 

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. I hope you enjoyed the techniques in today's step by step tutorial, I know I enjoyed sharing these with you.
