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!

  • Ombre sponging technique with Flowering Foils

    Before I talk about today's project I have to let you know that they Golden Honey Designer Paper is no longer available.  It was one of the free choices during Sale-a-Bration.  Unfortunately these products are only available while supplies last. So don't delay on your orders!  

    This next card is a version of a card I'm sending to my new Team members who purchased the Starter kit this month.  I chose to use Bermuda Bay with Black and White; you know the 'Black & White with a pop of color' theme.  It's a classic and always works! 

    Flowering Foils ombre Save

    I started out with a 2" X 5" strip of the Flowering Foils specialty designer paper.  It's gorgeous with silver and rose gold foil designs. You can see it here.  It's a free choice with any $50 order while supplies last.  

    I inked a wedge of sponge in Bermuda Bay ink and lightly sponged from bottom up.  I always start off of the card stock when I want a smooth look.  Also sponge in a soft circular motion; almost like you are washing it.  You can see me demo this in my FB Live video here. 

    Other Details:

    • Rare Blessings stamp set for the greeting
    • Stitched So Sweetly dies
    • pearls are colored with the dark Bermuda Bay Blends marker
    • The flower is fussy cut from the same designer paper and colored with light Bermuda Bay Blends marker
