Three Ways to Use Bold Color Mix Numbers

Hello! Jen Kotas is here today with three cards featuring the Color Mix Celebrations Collection. This collection features two BetterPress sets, one with large numbers and a die set with numbers that can cut out the BetterPress numbers or be used on their own.

Separating the numbers worked for the 2025 card but with the other cards or most with fewer numbers, I think they look great when overlapped. I also enjoyed placing one higher than the other.

1. On Porcelain BetterPress A2 Cotton Card, impress first number from Bold Color Mix Numbers Press Plates with Cosmic BetterPress Ink. Do not remove the number.
2. Using the first number as a guide, place the second number and impress with Tuscan BetterPress Ink.
3. Impress sentiment from Sweeping Celebration Sentiments Press Plates using Black BetterPress Ink.
4. Impress sentiment from Bold Color Mix Numbers Press Plates using Black BetterPress Ink and cut out with die from Bold Numbers Etched Dies.
5. Cut out with Fresh Picked Labels and Tag Etched Dies, leaving more space at the bottom for die-cut sentiment.
6. Cut out next larger Fresh Picked Labels and Tag Etched Die from Cosmic Cardstock and adhere to previous.
7. Emboss an A2 panel of white cardstock with Fresh Picked Floral Frame 3D Embossing Folder. Splatter with metallic inks.
8. Die cut stars from Tunnel Clouds Etched Dies out of Gold Glitter Cardstock.
9. Adhere all pieces to an A2 card base.

1. Impress the sentiment angled at the top and bottom of a Porcelain BetterPress A2 Cotton Card with Mulberry BetterPress Ink. Emboss with the Fresh Picked Floral Frame 3D Embossing Folder.
2. Impress numbers from the Bold Color Mix Numbers Press Plates with Cruise, Teal Topaz, and Azure BetterPress Inks for an ombré effect. Impress “th” with Mulberry BetterPress Ink. Cut out with dies from the Bold Numbers Etched Dies.
3. Cut embossed panel to 4 x 5 1/4” then adhere die-cut numbers to the center with thin foam squares, adding liquid glue where they overlap.
4. Splatter panel with bronze ink. Let dry.
5. Adhere panel to an A2 card base. Finish with Teal Color Essential Gems throughout.

1. Hot foil a panel of navy cardstock with Sparkle Background Glimmer Hot Foil Plate and Die Set with Aura Hot Foil Roll. Repeat for other half of panel. Spray panel with metallic spray. Let dry.
2. Hot foil numbers from Bold Color Mix Numbers Press Plates with Speckled Aura Hot Foil Roll on navy cardstock. Hot foil sentiment with Aura Hot Foil Roll. Cut out with dies from Bold Numbers Etched Dies.
3. Adhere panel to an A2 card base then add numbers and sentiments with foam tape.
4. Finish card with Aura Color Essential Gems.
