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.

  • Last of the Team card swaps featuring new products


    Today I’m sharing the last two swaps from May; our theme was to use new Summer catalog products.

    This first card was made by Ginny. She cased a card made by Chelle Scott.

    She used the Fern & Flora bundle seen here. Who doesn’t love ferns!? Stampin’ Up! did an awesome job on these dies.
    The colors here are Mossy Meadow, Old Olive and Peaceful Pine.

    And look at that gorgeous embossing folder – called Fern & Flora 3D folder is stunning! See it here.

    Next is a pretty card made by Paula who featured the Valley in Bloom Designer Paper.

    It’s a book binding card fold. Start with a 11″ X 4 1/4″ card base; score at 4 1/4″ & 5 1/2″. Adhere the ‘binding’ area down.
    Her colors include Blackberry Bliss with Granny Apple Green. She added some of the new 2026-28 In Color butterflies too.

    This designer paper is simply stunning; it’s so soft and yet detailed at the same time. See it here.

    Here’s what she did on the inside. The dies are so pretty!

    Here’s the Lily of the Valley bundle that includes these beautiful dies.

    Thanks for joining the swap gals; LOVE your cards!

  • Neat Diagonal Z-fold with Balloon Festoon; free project sheet too!


    I created this card for my May Team swap; the theme was to use new Summer catalog products.

    The Balloon Festoon bundle is a new favorite of mine. The multiple sizes of balloon dies are just wonderful and perfect for any celebratory event. See it here.

    I used the 12 X 12 Pool Party 2-tones card stock for the diagonal layer. It’s 12″ X 5 1/4″ scored every 4″. Then simply cut at an angle from the lower left to the upper second score line.

    The cute patterned balloons are cut from the new Beautiful Ordinary Life designer paper (seen here) and the new 2026-28 In Color Patterns DSP. See it here.

    I created a free project sheet for you; click here to print or download it.

    Below is the video where I shared this card and another featuring the same products.
