3 ways to use the Layered Floral on one card!

I shared this pretty textured card on last week's FB live video: 

Save

The textured card stock is Fresh Freesia.  I used a Blending Brush with Blackberry Bliss ink to highlight the gorgeous texture. The Layered Floral 3D embossing folder is amazing; it has super deep texture! 

I made a second card during the video with another rich color combination of Night of Navy with Boho Blue. Note the different ways I added vellum to these two cards. 

Also note the pretty texture added to the envelope flap; why don't we do this more often!?

Here are the 3 ways I featured this pretty Layered Floral 3D embossing folder:

1. Textured, then added ink with a Blending Brush.
2. I textured the envelope flap and add a very light ink, again with a Blending Brush.
3. Cut out a large flower from a separate piece of textured card stock; and I punched a smaller flower using the Petal Park Builder punch – yes it coordinates!!

  Huge Stamping Sale!!!

  This weekend is our annual Stamping sale where many of my customers sell off their excess paper crafting supplies.  I have a fantastic crew of helpers I call my 'committee'.  They set up the sale, do the books, and basically run the entire thing!  I am so blessed to have them.  Luckily they love it but it's a ton of work!

  If you live near us in ND it's so worth a road trip!!!  Gather some friends and stop in Saturday! 

  Remember, this is not my stash!  I usually do not sell things here anymore.  I save my items for my BOGO sales. 

  Save

  Because of the huge quantity of items and the large number of sellers, I am unable to take requests for wanted items. I'm so sorry about that. I know these photos are a big tease to those who do not live near me and I apologize!  

  Save

  If you live near us in Minot, ND it's well worth a road trip!  It's Saturday from 9-3 pm for everyone.  The Early Bird sale starts Friday for my current customers (those who have shopped with me in the last 6 months).

• Amazing Flowerbug Team swaps!

  July 22, 2020

  ---

  This week and next I'll be sharing a bunch of recent card swaps made by my talented Flowerbug's. 

  The first card is made by Annette with the set called From All of Us on page 93 of the annual catalog.  She used Blends markers to color the image in.  

  Save

  Her colors are Granny Apple Green and Daffodil Delight.  The card above was for last month and the one below was for July; both made by Annette.   

  This next card is a unique origami fold.  I shared the 'how to' and video on this post here.  I was grateful to Annette for demonstrating it at our last Team meeting.  So easy and it sure highlights the main image! 

  Save

  I LOVE the sign hanging on the cording!!

  This card is made with the new Cinnamon Cider; one of our newest In Colors.  She stamped the background tone-on-tone and the origami piece is made using the 6 X 6" 2020-22 In Color DSP.  The stamp set is Back on Your Feet on page 92 of the Annual catalog. 

  Stay tuned for more fabulous swaps tomorrow!

• Origami card fold with Flowers for Every Season with video

  July 21, 2020

  ---

  Here's another card I made on FB live last week using the pretty Flowers for Every Season designer paper.  It's an origami fold that creates a perfect place for your stamped image in the center. 

  Save

  It starts out with a 4 1/4" piece of designer series paper and you place it on a score board on the diagonal so the points are at 3" on the top and the left.  You can do this with a paper cutter too.  See here or watch the video below: 

  Save

  Then you score at 1" and 1 1/2".  Rotate it and do this on all sides.  Fold as shown.  

  Save

  The stamped White layer inside is 2 7/8" square.  

  Save

  Below is the video for this card and another pretty one made with the Fancy Phrases stamp set.
