I love all the cards! Very inspirational, where should I start??❤️
All of these cards are amazing. The inspiration is fantaatic.
Awesome cards!!!
Gorgeous designs, as always! I think stitching is also a great way to add texture and dimension. Have been meaning to try it for a while now! :o)
Great cards! My favorite way to add texture to cards is with liquid pearls, stickles, or similar products.
Lots of great examples adding texture!
Love a lot these cards. The stamps are georgous
Great ways to add texture! These cards are so cute! I love adding sequins.
What an AWESOME assortment of cards with texture! My favourite is
“Amazing” using the burlap.
Cuteness overloaded and I love these fun sentiments!
Loving all the new stamp set. Circle die and sole mates.
I love the YNS Gumdrops. The perfect touch to add detail to your cards.
Wonderful cards! There are too many cute ones. I can’t choose a favorite!
Great selection of textured cards. Love these ideas and I will be trying them out – really inspired with the cork board background and burlap. I normally reach for an Embossing Folder to create my texture:)
Loving all the texture! Great release party!!!
Awesome projects!
Oh my goodness what adorable cards! I certainly DO add texture to ALL of my cards, every single one to be honest. LOL
Awesome cards! Such great ideas of adding texture.
Simply adorable and clever cards. LOVE the ‘all aboard stamp set’. So sweet!!!
GREAT challenge. The team did a fabulous job. Love all the cuteness ♥
Great cards. Inspiring ideas to add texture.
Great work designers! I love adding layers and/or texture to my cards! A flat card is a bit too much like something you can buy in a shop tho so much cheaper to post. We should get a special discount for mailing art!
Lovely bunch of
cards, all so cute!

Always a great selection of inspirations from the DT. Thank You.
wow -so much inspiration -I love adding texture to my cards too! Thank you
These are fabulous!!! I love all of the various ways texture was added!
So many pretty cards! And fun. And inspirational. All lovely – thank you DT!!
So many cool, fun cards. Love Laura’s with the burlap and sentiment. So different. Hugz
Great DT inspiration! Fun new release.
I love adding texture to my cards! Great ideas here! Love the burlap!
all of the DT inspiration samples are fabulous texture ideas. I love the All Aboard stamp set used in some of the samples. Helene
Awesome cards!
Yes I do like to add textures . It pops that extra little something .
Wonderful cards by all.
Awesome post ! I’m new to the card making world, so I’m still experiencing all the possibilities there are to give texture to my cards. I love the sequins and other droplets. The Nuvo Drops are really great and I love to use felt or velum for my cards.
Wow! I think all did an outstanding job! Really liking each for their uniqueness. I like so many, but I think the last one with the use of cork is quite unique. Great job to all!
Gorgeous cards! Thanks for the reminder that I need to dry emboss more often! 🙂
All of the texture cards are wonderful! What a great challenge!
Very cute cards! Thanks for the inspiration 🙂 I love creating texture with embossing folders or by adding ribbon/fabrics to my cards.
Always fun cute projects. Thanks for sharing your talent DT.
What a fabulous assortment of texturized cards! For me the burlap paneled one really impressed me. Thanks for the opportunity to win–I don’t own any YNS stamps yet and would love to win some.
🙂 Marie
Beautiful cards! Great examples of textures of cards. Love the burlap and the cork. I love using gumdrops and embossing paste.
Love the release especially the “spectacular.”
I love adding textures – glittery gumdrops are perfect embellishments – still flat enough to mail, but sparkly enough to pop!
I also love adding Stickles and Glossy Accents to nearly every card!
The sample cards are so fun!!
Cork and gumdrops, dry embossing and shakers…..awesome ideas for adding texture to a card….I love to use burlap especially for a masculine card.
These are adorable!! I missed the release so it’s fun to see some of the new products. Love that “amazing” word set!
Great and creative thinking ladies! My favorites are the burlap, embossed cardstock and the textural cloud 🙂
All the cards are fantastic. So many different techniques used with the YNS sets. I adore the bunny set- so cute.
Gorgeous cards! Loving the texture! Thanks for inspiring!
Thanks for all the wonderful inspiration on how to add texture! I love adding layers and sequins – and sometimes texture paste! Have an awesome day!
Oh, I love all the different ways the DT added texture, especially the cork and gumdrops!! So many adorable cards
Very unique design with these texture
I love adding texture to my cards with embossing folders, layers, and fabric or burlap. The Gumdrops are a big fave too!
I love all cards to have texture whether it be an embossing folder, embossing powder or adding dimension with foam tape.
Each card is a masterpiece! I LOVE all the color and the whimsical images!
The team answered the dare wonderfully!! Always enjoy seeing their creations. I would have to say my fave is twine. I use it quite a lot, but I also love enamel dots and sequins. My embossing folders sit there unused most of the time, but they are perfect for adding texture.
Wonderful ideas !Hard to choose a favorite one! I usually add texture using dies, embossing (powders or folders) or glossy accents. But I do like the use of vellum or twine on certain cards.
Fabulous inspirations! I love the texture idea on each of the card 🙂
love all the new stamp.love the yns gumdrops.wonderful card gread work designers.
The shaker boxes are so sweet, TFS
These cards are so fun! I love seeing the different textures and designs. Sole mates is my favorite! So cute!
What great cards today…love seeing the DT take these challenges.
Your design team always impresses me with their beautiful cards and approach to the challenge. I really like the cork background, the embossing, and use of vellum.
All of the cards are just wonderful … great colours and design showing off the images perfectly. I just received Love Birds, so time to play ….
love seeing all different textures–great work, dt!
love the burlap. Nice look. I have nexer used gumdrops. They look fabulous. Need to put them on my shopping list.
You always have such great design team creations. Thank you for sharing and thank you for the drawings and challenges. I love them!
I love the DT projects! Such creative ways to give texture to cards! TFS! -Shari
So many different ways to use texture on your sweet cards! Love Laura’s use of the burlap! What a simple, yet effective design!
Awesome projects!! Very creative!

Absolutely Love all the cards. If I was to copy one one now, it would be Tracy’s.
I love your stamps and gum drops. Can’t wait for Scrapfest so I can get more of each. Oh and your dies.
Super inspiration! Thanks ladies.
Anything to make my cards more interesting – any kind of
texture really makes a difference.
