Easy WOW Cards with Split Negative Technique | 1 Layout, 8 Designs!

April 11, 2025 Leave a Comment

Hi friends!

Yesterday marked 23 years since I first joined Stampin’ Up! — and wow, what a journey it’s been! I’m feeling all the feels and thought it would be fun to take a walk down memory lane…

I recently stumbled upon some of my original Stampin’ Up! Inspiration Sheets from years ago — and yes, I’ve kept them all this time! The sheet I’m using for today’s cards is from 2006, and I’ve included a photo of it so you can have a copy of it:

For this week’s video, I decided to recreate this card, using a classic technique called Split Negative:

Using just this one simple layout, I made eight quick and beautiful cards featuring the Framed Scenes and Sketched Butterflies stamp sets:

These cards are quick and easy to make but they sure pack a big “WOW” factor, don’t you think?

🦋 A perfect layout for thank yous, birthdays, and everyday joy
🎨 Lovely layering and colour combos
💡 Quick, beginner-friendly stamping inspiration

To add a twist to the original card design, I pulled in the “Linked Together” masks to create the background on a couple of the cards – I LOVE how they turned out.

It’s so much fun to play and let inspiration flow! Here’s my video demonstrating how I made these cards:

Big hugs & HAPPY STAMPING!

I joined Stampin' Up! the first night they arrived in Canada, April 2002, and what a ride it's been! At the time I just wanted the discount on all of the fabulous stamps and accessories - why pay full price if you don't have to, right? But little did I know where my journey with Stampin' Up! would take me. Read More…
