Hey everyone, I am so excited to share this gorgeous layout from the incredibly talented Anke Kramer using our March 2026 Hip Kits! Anke took our exclusive Tulip Bouquet cut file and turned it into the most stunning focal point by backing each piece with coordinating papers and cardstock. If you have ever wondered how to take a cut file from flat to fabulous, this is the tutorial for you. She used the green cardstock from the March Cardstock Kit, the beautiful It’s So Good patterned paper from the March Main Kit, and even pulled in pieces from previous kits to create dimension and color variation in every single petal and leaf.
What I love most about this project is how Anke walks you through the entire process of backing a cut file step by step, making it feel totally doable even if you have never tried this technique before. She shows you how to use the inner pieces of the cut file as templates (genius, right?) and builds up this incredible layered bouquet that honestly looks like a work of art. Then she takes it even further by creating a full scrapbook layout complete with die cuts, clouds from the January 2026 Fluffy Cloud Cluster cut file, hand-stitched butterfly trails, and the prettiest title using pink glitter foam mini alphabet stickers. Grab your supplies and let’s dive in!
