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…..

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….?  

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.  

Stop back in for more Team swaps tomorrow!

  • Everyone needs a Card Organizer; you’ll love this kit to go! Limited supply available…


    I was thrilled with the Birthday Card Organizer kit Stampin' Up! created and knew it would be super popular.  I was right; they are now out of stock.  It will be available again; but we don't know when. 

    I ordered a bunch of these kits and have jazzed it up for a kit to go this month.  

    The basic Birthday Organizer kit includes the card organizer (it has 12 months & 14 pockets for cards), adhesives, adhesive-backed sequins & everything needed to make 12 cards & envelopes. 

    I'm adding 4 bonus cards & envelopes, a spool of Sahara Sand ribbon and all pre-cut pieces needed to complete the design element on the front of the card organizer.

    In the PDF tutorial you'll also see a few alternate designs for the 2 card designs included in the base kit. Of course it also includes instructions for the bonus cards and design element on the front. This PDF is sent to you immediately after payment via email. 

    To complete this organizer and cards as shown you’ll need the following products: 

    • Stamps – Biggest Wish, Peaceful Moments (or other greetings)
    • Ink – Black, Soft Succulent, Petal Pink

    Click here to reserve yours; supply is limited!  The cost is $32 plus shipping.  

    Who wouldn't want this gorgeous organizer for their cards?!

  • Country Wreath’s Vertical Slider fun fold card; with video tutorial


    A few weeks ago I shared multiple projects with the Cottage Wreaths bundle on my weekly FB Live.  This Vertical Slider card was one of them.  It's so cool and surprisingly easy.  

    It's a simple gatefold but the center element holds the card closed so it stays flat.  It's so neat!  I made a second version as well and shared that one here. 

    I used the Santa Express designer paper here as well as the Joyful Flurry bundle and Brightest Glow stamp set. 

    How it works is to have three squares or circles on the back of the center element.  Fold two in half and adhere to the back of your center layer.  Then top it with the third one.  The two must be positioned so the grab the two front panels of the card and can 'slide' down the center seam.  *watch the video below or here to see how it works.  

    Click on the photo below to watch the video.  There's another neat fun fold card AND an easy treat box/bag too!
