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.

  • A neat Accordion Fun-Fold with the new Marbled Elegance – video too!

    I played with the Marbled Elegance suite on last week's video and created this card: 

    Marbled Elegance card Save

    The colors include Melon Mambo, Soft Sea Foam and Gold. I used lots of products from this new Suite including the Marbled Elegance DSP, the new Twisted Gold thread and the new Adhesive-backed heart sequins. I also used the Modern Herringbone embossing folder and the Sentimental Park dies for the greeting die-cut. 

    See this pretty suite here:

    The front and back of this card are panels measuring 4 1/4" X 5 1/2" but the inside is an accordion fold that is attached to the front and back. Such an easy fold to make and I like that it uses your cardstock efficiently.

  • Pretty Petals fun fold card with video & free project sheet

    They released a big bunch of new Online Exclusive products and the Pretty Petals stamp set was one of my picks. I made a bunch of these for an online swap I joined:

    I love the color combo of Pretty in Pink & Lost Lagoon.  But there are many other things to admire about this beautiful card:

    • the new Modern Herringbone embossing folder seen here
    • the Distinktive stamps that provide two-toned stamped images effortlessly
    • The fun-fold design – it's a book-binding Z-fold! 
    • the greeting is from the new Hearts of Elegance stamp set seen here
    • the pretty Lost Lagoon soft cording seen here
