3 neat cards with the All Squared Away bundle; FB Live replay

Here are the cards I made on last Tuesday's FB Live featuring the All Squared Away bundle.  Fresh Freesia is the color of the day!

Save

I stamped the solid images in the set in three colors; Fresh Freesia, Pool Party & Pear Pizzazz.  Then I trimmed them so they'd fit behind the die-cut floral squares. I added rolled up mini glue dots for just a bit of a lift and added them to the White layer. Sometimes you want a lift that's not very thick; rolled up glue dots do the trick! That next texture is the Bark 3D folder I used seen here.

The greeting is from Biggest Wish stamp set – stamped on Fresh Freesia CS and fussy cut.  Those pretty gems are the fabulous, iridescent In Color jewels.

This next card is a unique color combination gatefold card made with the same bundle:

• Easy Explosion card video tutorial with Penguin Playmates Designer Paper!

  September 7, 2021

  ---

  On last Tuesday's FB Live I shared three unique fun fold cards featuring the Penguin Place bundle and the Penguin Palace designer paper.  *Follow me on Facebook here. 

  Today I'm focusing on the Explosion card. It sure looks complicated but it's just a few score lines on a 4 X 8" piece of DSP. 

  As you can see, it's not a Christmas card.  This bundle and designer paper works well for multiple occasions.  

  Save

  The colors are Fresh Freesia, Black, White & Balmy Blue which coordinate with the adorable Penguin Playmates DSP seen here.  This paper is free during our Sale-a-Bration promotion with any $50 order.

  Save

  See that cute penguin?  It's punched out with the Penguin punch; right from the designer paper!

• Feels Like Home Sale-a-Bration swaps

  September 6, 2021

  ---

  We had our monthly Flowerbug's Team meeting this weekend and as usual swapped cards.  This month we chose a Sale-a-Bration theme.  Here are two pretty cards I am sure you'll love.  

  The first is made by Tracey.  She used the Feels Like Home stamp set and a monochromatic look with Cinnamon Cider. I love the fact that you do not have to color this set in.  It's beautiful stamped in one color!  See this stamp set here. 

  Save

  It's such a rich color! She added tons of texture & details to this card  including the torn edges.  

  Details:

  • Stacked Stone background stamp
  • One ink – Cinnamon Cider
  • Timeworn Type 3D embossing folder
  • Greeting tag die-cut from the In Bloom dies
  • Champagne rhinestones

  This next card is made by me in Black, Cherry Cobbler & White.  

  Save

  
  

  I stamped the image in Black Memento ink and colored in just the door with Cherry Cobbler blends markers.  It adds that fun pop of color.  It's also less time consuming than coloring the entire image.  

  Other details: Silver metallic pearls, heat embossed image punched out with the Double Oval punch.

  I added a 2" strip of the Beautifully Penned designer paper on the left.  I do love Black & White paper!

  This paper is also a free choice during our Sale-a-Bration promotion.  You can see it here.

• Delicate Dahlias & Very Versailles

  September 3, 2021

  ---

  Look at this pretty, multi-layered card made by Roxann. She used the Delicate Dahlias stamp set and the Very Versailles. 

  Save

  Her colors are Pale Papaya, Vanilla & Black.  She stamped the Dahlia twice; once on the large Vanilla and again on a scrap to fussy cut.  It's a 2-step stamp set with a DistINKtive look. What is DistINKtive mean?  It's a process Stampin' Up! created that gives a multi-toned look with just one ink color.  

  Look at the detail and multiple hues on these stamps!  

  Save

  This stamp set if free with a $100 order during our Sale-a-Bration promotion.  It lasts through September 30th.  See it here.
