3 NEW Ways to Use BetterPress Plates for Gorgeous Handmade Cards

Today, I’m sharing 3 amazing cards that all use the same BetterPress plate but with fresh and creative techniques you’ve got to try! 🎨 Each card brings something new and different, and I’m excited to show you how versatile these plates can be. Don’t miss out on these techniques—be sure to follow me on Instagram, where I’ll be posting several short-form videos showing each method in action. Get ready for some serious inspiration!

Card #1 Sparkle to the Max

I kicked things off with a stunning pearlescent metallic silver paper, and then added black ink to the BetterPress plate. I was blown away by how incredible the contrast looked! 😍 For extra dimension, I layered a diamond-shaped vellum topped with the new Amaryllis die cut from glitter paper. To add even more sparkle, I used black glitter washi tape and finished it off with a BetterPress circle sentiment. The mix of shimmer and bold details really makes this card pop! ✨

Card #2 Pink & Silver Amaryllis

For the second card, I decided to experiment with different colors on the pearlescent silver paper, aiming to create even more fun variations! Since the paper absorbs some of the color, I applied a bright red ink to the BetterPress plate, which resulted in this soft pink beauty. To keep the focus on the lovely colors, I added a simple foiled sentiment but couldn’t resist finishing it off with a touch of metallic thread and a few gems to make that sentiment really shine! ✨

CArd #3 Stenciling with Betterpress

This last card is by far my absolute favorite! 💖 I started with pink ink on BetterPress cotton paper, and then brought in some layered stencils with soft ink blending. The detail and beauty that came out of this combination completely blew me away! 😍 To finish it off, I tied everything together with a coordinating ribbon and die-cut the sentiment from gorgeous gold cardstock. This card is a true showstopper! ✨
