2 more great card ideas with the Basic Border dies!


Before you get to the projects today I want to let everyone know about the current shipping delays. Stampin' Up! had their highest sales day ever on April 4th – by almost 20 times the average!  Wow!  They are quite behind and have added extra staff and longer hours to get caught up.  So if you're wondering where your order is, it's coming….it will just be about 8-10 days longer than normal.

This week I'm sharing our April card swaps from my Flowerbug's team. It's so fun to see what they make; everyone has their own unique style.  I LOVE swapping with them!  

Annette chose the Beside Me stamp set for her card. She is a master at coloring and sponging.  

Her colors include Blueberry Bushel, Basic White & Black. The Blueberry Bushel layer is textured with the Timeworn Type folder; the greeting die-cut is from the Stylish Shapes dies. 

She cut two curves for her card; one with the Basic White layer and another with a Black layer.  She colored the image in with Blends markers.

Next is a neat card made by Karen who also used the Basic Border dies seen here.  

She used the die to cut off the edge of her card and then used that second piece to create a 'vertical window' for her By the Bay specialty designer paper. This pretty paper is discounted on the Last Chance List.  See it here. 

Her greeting and die-cut layers are from the Something Fancy bundle in the Spring catalog.  It will be in the new Annual catalog but no longer as a bundle at 10% off. 

See the Basic Border dies here:  I love these dies; they're so versatile.  Luckily they are carrying over into the new Annual catalog.

  • Easy Pinwheel ‘Patch’ cards with video!


    Last night I featured Pinwheel cards on my FB Live 'Stamp with Me'.  I shared my method of making these easily in the video below. 

    Here's my favorite!

    The card above is made with Polished Pink CS, Pattern Play DSP, Dots & Checks embossing folder duo and In Symmetry stamp set.  I colored the white ribbon with Polished Pink blends.  

    Here's the video: 

    This next card featured Bumblebee with the 2020-22 In Color prints and the cute buffalo check (Pattern Party Hostess DSP seen on page 171). 


    Below are the cards I made featuring Sweet Symmetry DSP seen here.  It's one of 9 designer paper packs that will be on sale in July! 

    The card bases are Calypso Coral, ink and layers are Night of Navy.

  • Hat’s Off; a neat bundle with so many possibilities. Video tutorial too!


    The Hat's Off bundle was a bit of a sleeper to me when I first saw it.  But seeing what other's created with it made me buy it.  

    Once I played with it, I absolutely loved it!  See this bundle here.

    I created this card for my June card clubs.  

    I chose these colors; Gray Granite, Real Red, Crushed Curry and Misty Moonlight.  I stamped the background stars with Versamark ink.  I love the tone on tone this ink pad provides. 

    The stars are from the Stitched Stars dies and the texture is from the Checks & Dots embossing folder duo seen here. 

    Scroll down to watch the video. 

    Can you see the stitched detail on the hat and the emblem?  These dies are fabulous!  This bundle is a fabulous price point; just $35 for the set & dies!

    Measurements:

    • Gray Granite card 5 1/2" X 8 1/2"
      Real Red 2" X 5 1/4"
