3rd set of WOW Masculine swap cards by my Team!


I have another set of incredible swap cards made by my Flowerbug's Team.  Our theme in July was masculine cards and the cards are out of this world creative!  I'm sharing a bunch each day this week. 

First up is a card made by Candace.  She really went outside the box with her background strip idea.  The various widths & lengths of strips are a clever & unique way to set up her aquatic scene.  

She used the 'Whale Done' stamp set and the coordinating Whale punch.  That neat 'seaweed' is from the Delicate Edges dies seen here.  

Her colors are unique but sure work well together!  They are Soft Sea Foam, Evening Evergreen, Soft Succulent & Orchid Oasis.  Great job!!

 

Next is Becky's fun 'sailboat' card.  She used the Let's Set Sail Bundle seen here.  

Her colors are Night of Navy, Parakeet Party & Sahara Sand.  The DSP is from the Sun Prints.  It's a fancy fold too!  

Notice her clouds on the background?  She used the Friends are Like Seashells stamps for those!  So clever! 

Measurements:

  • The card base is 4 1/4" X 11" scored at 5 1/2". 
  • The long strip is 1 1/2" X 11" scored at 2 3/4", 5 1/2" & 8 1/4" and is adhered only at the two end pieces.  
  • The squares are 1 3/4" & 2" in size.  

Next is a wonderful card made by Monica.  She used the Dragonfly Garden stamp set & coordinating Dragonflies punch.

Details:

  • Her colors include Soft Suede, Soft Succulent & Evening Evergreen.  She textured the various strips using the new Painted Posies 3D embossing folder. 
  • The strips are all 4 3/4" long but vary in width from 5/8" – 1 1/4" all adhered to a 4" X 5 1/4" piece of White CS.  Again, strips to the rescue for a unique background idea; perfect for men.  
  • The greeting die-cuts are from the Stitched Rectangle dies. 
  • The dragonfly is stamped on Vellum and punched out. But she stamped it again on a piece of the Texture Chic specialty DSP for the center.  So it has gold details on it! 

Stay tuned for more masculine card ideas tomorrow and all this week!

  • Quick & beautiful cards for any occasion with the New Horizon suite.


    If your style is clean and simple I have the perfect card layout for you! Look at these gorgeous cards!

    I stamped a few of the images from the On the Horizon stamp set here.  I used the birds a lot!  They add a peaceful 'movement' to the card.

    I used a version of my 5 at a time template for the card stock layers for these cards.  I use this often for the inside of my cards; especially if I need a white piece.  When making multiple cards it sure is nice to get 5 pieces from an 8 1/2" X 11" sheet instead of just 4.  I get a lot of people who ask me about this template.  If you like it I suggest you save it and either print it out or save on your computer for easy reference.  

    If you look closely at the cards with the trio of trees on them you'll see a 'watery' reflection. It's so easy with this New Horizon Designer Series Paper.  I shared how in the video here. 

    The New Horizons paper is on low inventory at this time. If they run out the item will be shut off until they restock.  

    Here's how this simple reflection is done. 

    1. Stamp the tree on the horizon line using full ink.
    2. Do not ink again. 
    3. Turn the stamp upside down and simply stamp under the first image.  Easy, instant reflection.  

    Measurements:

    • White card base 4 1/4" X 11" scored in half at 5 1/2"
    • Designer paper 3" X 4 1/2"
    • Card stock layer 3 1/8" X 4 5/8"
    • greeting strips 5/8" X 3"

  • Waves of Inspiration scene with masking & blending techniques


    I made this card for an online swap I participated in last month.  When I create for a swap I tend to make a few different cards and decide which one I'll use for the swap.  Well once I made this one the decision was made!  

    Although after stamping, masking, blending and sponging over 20 cards I was regretting my decision! But I am proud of it so it was worth my efforts.  

    This card is part of my Waves of Inspiration kit to go this month.  I share how to make it in the video and it's also part of the pre-cut kit to go as well. 

    If you're interested in it please message me here by March 17th. 

    Here's a link to see all of the Waves of the Ocean collection.  Heads up!  The stamp & dies bundle will be in the new catalog but the papers & gems will not!  


    The Waves of Inspiration kit to go is $82 and includes:

    • the Waves of Inspiration stamp & dies bundle (value of $51).  *Substitute other product if you already own it. 
    • 6 beautiful pre-cut cards ready for you to stamp & assemble

  • Need cute but easy Scrapbook ideas? I’ve got you covered!


    It's been awhile since I created scrapbook pages.  I actually started out with scrapbooking before stamping.  

    I know some of my customers have been waiting for me to create a new bunch of scrapbook layouts.  I thought the Pattern Party host designer paper was a perfect starting point.  Then I added elements from the What a Year Memories & More card pack.  Perfect match up!  Look: 

    There are 6 fun, colorful double scrapbook layouts in this kit to go. (the white photo mats are where you photos will be) 

    Each layout includes two 12 X 12 pages featuring a variety of celebratory occasions.  You have a choice of the PDF tutorial or a pre-cut kit to go. 

    Here's one of the striking layouts. 


    Pre-order this kit by March 17th and it will be mailed out at the end of March.  The PDF tutorial is sent in an email immediately after payment. 


    The kit to go includes the following:

    • 6 double layouts (12 pages) with pre-cut and punched pieces
    • What a Year Memories & More card pack.  You'll use these cards for titles, layers and other elements on your page layouts. 
    • the PDF tutorial includes photos, measurements, supplies list and tips on assembly

    Wait; you can add one or both of my other kits to go this month.  I have the Flowering Fields cards or the Waves of Inspiration cards. *see them below.
