3 unique techniques on these pretty swap cards

I'll be sharing our July Flowerbug Team swaps this week and next.  Our theme was to create our own backgrounds.  They came up with some amazing ideas.  I absolutely LOVE seeing their creativity and style.  

First is a monochromatic card by Annette. I bet you'll never guess how she did this special background…..

June Annette ink dragging Save

She used Orchid Oasis and Boho Blue ink spots and dragged the ink across her white card stock. One color in each direction.  I was shocked at how pretty and evenly colored it is. I think it looks like denim. It's the perfect way to highlight the pretty die-cut. I'm going to try this myself soon! 

Her greeting is heat embossed with White embossing powder on a die-cut from this bundle.  

She used the Wonderful Thoughts bundle seen here.

Next is a pretty card that Monica made with the Color & Contour stamp set & Scalloped Contour dies.

She created a blended and masked background using Orchid Oasis and Daffodil Delight.  She added a bit of Pool Party on the flower and the card base too.  I love these colors together!

And lastly today is a unique technique by Lori. I'm not sure I've done this one! Can you guess how she did it….?  

July Lori Birds eye view Save

She first scored her White card stock about 1" apart, on the diagonal. Then she folded the card stock on each score line and sponged Balmy Blue ink on each fold.  I know I've never done this one; at least in my memory I haven't.  So cool and very precise too!  

She used the Circle Sayings bundle for her greeting & punch. The bird is water-colored with our watercolor pencils. 

She used the new Bird's Eye View stamp set seen here.  She also stamped her envelope.

  • 2 Pretty Team card swaps with neat technique ideas!

    Today I'm sharing two Team Swaps from last month.  Both have neat product ideas.

    First is Tracey's cute card. Can you guess what the tiny scallops on the DSP is?  

    Feb Tracey Save

    She used the Petal Pink scalloped ribbon under the DSP! Tracey has a special gift on fun ways to use ribbon & twine. This effect is so pretty & delicate looking.  It's currently in low inventory. 

    Measurements:

    The DSP is 5 1/4" X 1 3/4", the White 5 1/4" X 4", the card base is 5 1/2" X 8 1/2" scored at 4 1/4". The layer under the ribbon & DSP is 5 1/4 X 2"

    PETAL PINK 3/8” (1 CM) SCALLOPED RIBBON Save

    Here is a list of the many products she used:

    • Hugs for Love bundle seen here (punch will be available in April)
    • Moody Mauve, Basic White & Pretty in Pink CS
    • Timeless Plaid 6 X 6" DSP seen here
    • Spotlight on Nature dies seen here
    • 2 3/8" circle punch
    • Forever Plaid 3D embossing folder (circle) 
    • Heat embossing technique

    ~~~

    Next is a pretty card made by Lori. Her special technique surprised me!  Do you spot it?

    Feb Tracey Save

    She stitched her die-cut circle (Spotlight on Nature) with the 3 color pack of Baker's Twine!  

    Her card base is Flirty Flamingo and the 4" X 5 1/4" CS layer is textured with the Exposed Brick embossing folder seen here.  The pretty DSP is the Sale-a-Bration Bloom Impressions (now retired). The greeting & die-cuts are from the Memorable Blooms bundle seen here. 

    I'll share more Team swaps tomorrow!

  • You are Remarkable fun fold card with the new Botanical Textures DSP & Arches dies

    I shared this card on last week's FB Live.  I made it for an online card swap.  I just love it! 

    You are Remarkable arches Save

    It's a simple fold back card with the Arches dies and the new You Are  remarkable stamp set.  Here's what it looks like opened: I love the double Arches dies here! These dies are in low inventory AGAIN.  See them here.    

    You are remarkable arches card Save

    The You Are Remarkable stamp set (seen here) is both a 2-step stamp and a Distinktive set which means you get multiple hues of ink with one stamping.  I like that you can stamp the flower and leaves separately in different color inks from the single outline stamp.  Note the inside flower image above that I stamped without the outline.  I like it just as well this way too!

  • You are Remarkable card in a clean & simple style with video & free project sheet

    I created this pretty card with the new 'You Are Remarkable' stamp set from our Online Exclusive offering. 

    You Are Remarkable Save

    I was going for a clean & simple look since that's our March Team swap theme.  I just received this pretty stamp set and love the 2-step & distinktive set a lot!  See this stamp set here. 

    My colors include Black, White, Fresh Freesia and Lemon Lime Twist for the leaves. The embossing folder is called Dashing Designs and is from the Annual Catalog. 

    I also used the new Textured Notes dies for the stitched rectangles.  These are incredible!  See them here:
