3 completely different cards with the Friendly Hello bundle; WOW!

Our Sale-a-Bration promotion is everyone's favorite time of year; who doesn't love to get something free?!  

This year our product line includes a stamp set & 12 X 12" designer paper combo called Friendly Hello.  I love both the stamps and the DSP.  The stamps include floral, botanical and greeting images and the paper can be either soft & pretty or bright & eye catching! 

FRIENDLY HELLO BUNDLE (ENGLISH) Save

Look at these three extremely different cards all featuring the same stamps & DSP:

Friendly Hello & Tropical Layers Save

This card is one I made for an online swap I participated in.  I chose to use the Granny Apple Green sheet of DSP and paired it with Black & White. It's a simple layout that really shows off the colors & products.

Details:

  • The greeting is stamped onto a die-cut from the Hippo & Friends die. 
  • That delicate leaf die-cut is from the Tropical Layers dies in the Jan-June catalog.  
  • The butterfly is from the Catching Butterflies Sale-a-Bration stamp set. 

Next is a pretty swap Ginny made but so much softer in colors.  

Jan Friendly Hello Ginny Save

She covered the entire card front with her Designer Paper and added a banner from another sheet of the DSP under the main White scalloped piece.  She stamped in Gray Granite and colored in the bird & flowers with Blends markers.  

Lastly today is another card I made for a swap.  I paired the Pool Party sheet of this Designer Paper with Early Espresso.  I've always loved these colors together.  I stamped the flowers in Early Espresso ink onto our Vellum card stock and immediately heat embossed with clear embossing powder.  Yes you CAN emboss with our Classic ink pads!  

Friendly Hello & Tropical Layers Save

I textured the Pool Party card stock with the new Gingham embossing folder and rounded the upper right corner.  I also cut our new frayed 3/4" White ribbon in half lengthwise and wrapped it round the left edge of the card stock.  

Thanks so much for stopping in to see my projects today!  If you want to get this pretty pack of Designer Paper & the Friendly Hello stamp set click here to see it.  It's free with any $100 purchase right now!

  • A special fun-fold card with Caring Leaves with video & free project sheet

    I shared this unique fun fold card on last week's FB Live video.  It's also uploaded to my YouTube channel too.  

    Caring Leaves club Oct Save

    It was one of the projects we made at my October card clubs this month.  The Caring Leaves stamp set is in our current Holiday catalog. See it here.  It's a sweet & simple set that is both Distinktive and a 2-step set. 

    CARING LEAVES PHOTOPOLYMER STAMP SET (ENGLISH) Save

    You can see the fun fold below. The card base is scored 3 times. The measurements can be found in the free project sheet here. Click on the following link to print it or to download it.  Download Caring Leaves Oct 2024

    Caring Leaves club Save

    My colors include Very Vanilla, Copper Clay and Pretty Peacock.  After stamping the front panel we added texture with an embossing folder. I offered the Birch 3D or the Leaf Fall 3D folders. 

    That stunning Pretty Peacock & Copper foil specialty DSP is called Oxidized Copper and can be found here.  It's currently in low inventory though.  

    OXIDIZED COPPER 12" X 12" (30.5 X 30.5 CM) SPECIALTY DESIGNER SERIES PAPER Save

    We blended a bit of Copper Clay ink to the front panel and greeting strip after embossing. A blending brush provides a beautiful & smooth color.

  • More Christmas card ideas from the Holiday Catalog by my Team

    This is the third batch of Christmas card swaps I've shared – all made by my talented Flowerug's Team. 

    First up today is an adorable card made by Candy.  She used the Snowy Wonder bundle seen here in the Holiday catalog. 

    Oct Candy Snow Wonder Save

    I adore her color combination of Pool Party with Real Red & White.  It's one of my favorites for the holidays. She stamped her snowflake background.  The snow globe is stamped with the Falling Snow background stamp. 

    She added tons of layers and textures here!  From the Forever Plaid 3D embossing folder to her die-cuts, greetings and snowflake embellishments.  So much detail!! 

    Here's the inside view. This greeting is from the Peaceful Season stamp set.

    Next is a sweet & simple card made by Karen. 

    Oct Karen G Sentimental Christmas Save

    Her greeting is from the Peaceful Season bundle. She chose to feature the nostalgic Sentimental Christmas Designer Series Paper.

    SENTIMENTAL CHRISTMAS 12" X 12" (30.5 X 30.5 CM) DESIGNER SERIES PAPER Save

    This pretty paper is one of the frequent 'give back's' that Stampin' Up! does each year.  They are donating $3 to children's literacy programs around the world for each pack they sell.

    Mary also chose to use this same DSP on her card.  Another simple but neat way to make your designer paper the star of the card. Her colors are Pecan Pie, Cherry Cobbler & Vanilla.

    There are still more swaps left to share; stay tuned!

  • 3 great fun fold ideas from my Team swaps

    You're going to love these fancy fold cards made by my Flowerbug's Team for this month's swap.  I shared a few others yesterday and here are three more:

    Lori made this cute 'gift box' card.

    Oct Lori Take a Bow Save

    She used the Take a Bow DSP seen here and the Peaceful Christmas dies too.  She wrote the 'Merry' greeting by hand. It's like a pocket card except the top is a fold that pulls up the inside like this:

    Oct Lori Take a Bow Save

    Measurements: 

    • DSP 2 pieces of each at 3 7/8" X 4 1/2" (striped), Red is 1 1/8" X 4 1/2"
    • Real Red 4 1/4" X 2" score in half at 1" (poke two holes for threading ribbon), 3" X 4 1/4" inside pocket
    • White 2 3/4" X 4" inside pocket layer
    • scraps for die-cuts 

    Next is a sweet card made by Joan who did make a pocket card!

    Oct Joan Christmas Friends Save

    She used the Christmas Friends stamp set (seen here) along with the Deckled Circle dies.  Isn't her coloring fabulous?  She has a knack for coloring with the Blends markers.  

    Next is an adorable card made by Sharon who chose the Sweetest Star bundle and also used the Take a Bow DSP. 


    Oct Sharon Sweetest Star Save

    She scored her colored Santa from center to each point and added it to the inside of her punched star window with two stacked dimensionals in the center.  Love this idea!  See the Sweetest Star bundle here.
