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!

  • Time of Giving for your Holiday projects with video tutorial.


    On last Tuesday's FB Live I focused on the Time of Giving bundle in the current 2021 Holiday Catalog.  This bundle is for many occasions and more fun and versatile than I thought! 

    I'll start with the autumn card featuring the baby wipe technique.

    Isn't it pretty?!  My colors are Bermuda Bay, Pumpkin Pie & Old Olive. Those are the ink refills I used on my baby wipe. If you haven't done the baby wipe technique please watch the video below or click here.  It's so simple and all you need is a folded baby wipe and a few colors of ink refills.  

    The little die-cut leaves on the greeting are also in this bundle.  The Gold Fine Art ribbon is from the annual catalog as well as the white die-cut for the greeting.  It's in the Stitched So Sweetly set.


      All of these images & dies are from this Tidings of Giving bundle seen here. 

    Next is a beautiful snowflake card that's mostly white but the pop of colors shows off this pretty die wonderfully!  It creates a 'window' effect.  I die-cut three dies in a row on my White CS and for the soft colors under it I used my blending brushes with Just Jade & Bermuda Bay ink.

    For this next card I chose the Santa & sleigh die.  As you can see I left a wide border on this one so I could stamp the greeting directly on it.  This pretty background paper is from the Beauty of the Earth DSP in the Stampin' Up! annual catalog seen here. 

    And here is a card using the ornament die.  Again I cut three in a row, lowering the die each time.  Another bit of the Beauty of the Earth designer paper on the side and a greeting added with the Double Oval Punch.  Glittered white ribbon finishes it off. 

    And below is the video where you can see how I achieved these techniques.  I hope you watch!  *Don't forget to subscribe to my YouTube channel here too!

  • Last of the Autumn Themed swaps; such neat ideas!


    Tracey made this first card with the Nature's Harvest bundle & Harvest Meadow designer series paper.  I love the way her thin strips of DSP create this stunning background.  

    Then she softened it with a piece of vellum that she textured with the Meadow Moments embossing folder. 

    Her greeting is from the In Your Words stamp set – it was a bonus free offer in our Sale-a-Bration catalog during August & September.  Underneath the torn greeting strip is some Diamond Weave trim, dyed to match. 

    Next is a beautiful card made by Paula.  She featured the Season's Blessings bundle in the Annual Catalog seen here. 

    Her colors include Bumblebee, Cajun Craze, Soft Suede & Cinnamon Cider. 

    Details:

    • Stitched Greenery die on the background
    • Tailor Made tags for the Cajun Craze die-cut
    • Cork paper for her basket die-cut!!!
    • Beauty of the Earth DSP
