Graphic Impact: Bold Typography with Stephanie

Hello crafting friends! Stephanie Severin is back here on the blog and this time, she shares how how easy it is to create eye-catching projects with minimal supplies.

In both cards, Stephanie relied on a powerful combination: a graphic, bold background paired (Thank You A2 card fronts) with a strong sentiment die-cut. By letting the designs on the card fronts do the heavy lifting, she shows how you can make an incredible, high-impact project in just a few quick steps.

Here is a look at her two gorgeous cards:

Thank You in Masculine Colors

In her first card, Stephanie added a beautiful texture to the typography background by spraying the panel with distress oxide sprays, layered on a playful splatter of paint, and finished it off with a bit of distress spritz for a subtle shimmer. She topped the bold panel with a crisp, neutral die-cut using the Thanks word die, creating a clean point of focus that perfectly balances the busy, graphic pattern behind it.

Bold and Bright Thanks

For her second card, Stephanie chose a vibrant color palette to bring the same typography design to life. She applied a fresh layer of distress oxide sprays and added splatters of matching paint and distress spritz across the design. To complete the look, she die-cut the Thanks word die out of a deep green cardstock, providing a rich, high-contrast focal point that immediately draws the eye.
