An amazing flower from the Ladybug Builder punch? Yes!

I have been sharing many cards made with the Hello Ladybug stamp & punch bundle in the last few days.  I've gone a bit crazy with it lately!  If you missed them scroll to the next few posts before this one or watch the video here to see most of them.  

I've seen a few samples of flowers made with the Ladybug Builder punch and had to try one myself.  I love the dimension you get when you curl the 'wings' a bit!

It's definitely a 3D type flower; maybe suited best for a box or gift bag.  Wouldn't that be pretty!

I punched 'wings' from the Ladybug Builder punch from our Simply Marbelous designer paper.  This paper is free during our Sale-a-Bration promotion through February 28th.  See it here!  

SIMPLY MARBLEOUS 6" X 6" (15.2 X 15.2 CM) DESIGNER SERIES PAPER Save

It's my top favorite item in our Sale-a-Bration catalog!  I love that each sheet is monochromatic on both sides; many shades of the same colors. Don't miss out on this amazing paper. 

I used quite a few punched wings to make these flowers.  Start with a 1 1/2" – 1 3/4" circle punch as a base to add them to, working your way from outside towards the center.  Be sure to curl them first with a bone folder.

This card is also a unique fun fold I'd never seen before.  I used our Stitched Rectangle dies to cut a partial window in the front fold.  You can get my tips on achieving this fold in the video seen here or below.

I used the Basic Patterns Decorative Masks seen here for my background.  Our blending brushes make this a breeze.

  • Winter Wishes & Abundant Beauty masks fun fold card; free tutorial & video!

    Today's project was inspired by my Team member Candace who made this cool fun fold card for a recent swap. 

    Oct Candace Beary Cute Save

    Isn't it neat! She featured the Beary Cute bundle on her card in Lost Lagoon, Smoky Slate & Pretty Peacock. 

    My favorite part of her card is that it's quite easy to make! I knew my followers would like to know how to make it so I shared it on a recent video (seen below).  

    I used similar colors but chose the Magical Meadow stamp set & the Abundant Beauty Decorative Masks seen here. 

    Winter Wishes fun fold Save

    I used a blending brush, Lost Lagoon ink and the snowflake mask to create my card front.  After adding the pretty snowflakes I textured it with the Snowflake Sky 3D embossing folder. 

    It's a mini slim line card; the finished size is 3" X 5 1/2".  I just love the fun of the popped up panels inside!

    Below are a few cutting templates for you.

    Watch the video here or below to see how this is done. 

    Directions:

    • You'll start out with a 6" square of designer paper. 
    • First cut is at 2". You're left with a 4" X 6" piece on the right. 
    • Cut the 2" strip into a 2" X 4" piece, leaving you with a 2" square. 
    • Next cut the 4" X 6" piece on the right into three 2" X 4" pieces. 

     

     

     

    So Very Merry 2 at a time Save

    See this gorgeous Snowflake Magic specialty paper here.  

     

    • Now you'll cut each 2" X 4" strip into two pieces by cutting it in half on the diagonal.  
    • Be sure you cut each one in the same direction.
    • Cut the 2" square in half on the diagonal and then cut each triangle in half.  These pieces are used on the inside of the card.   

    You'll use 4 of the large pieces and two small triangles on each card.

  • Beautiful cards made with the Rustic Christmas Countdown kit!

    I created these pretty cards with the Rustic Christmas Countdown kit.  It's meant to be used as an advent calendar but I thought they'd make great Christmas cards. 

    Rustic Christmas all Save

    I will not be surprised if this kit sells out soon.  It's gorgeous!  The envelopes for the advent calendar are approximately 3" X 4"; a good size to add a treat inside. 

    Rustic Christmas 3 Save

    I added Mossy Meadow & Cherry Cobbler card bases, some textured strips of the same colors and a few greetings. 

    The greetings mostly cover up the numbers printed on the wood & gold paper elements in the kit. 

    For greetings I used the Brightest Glow (annual catalog) and Beary Cute (Holiday catalog) along with circle punches and Tailored Tags dies. 

    We made these projects at my October Flowerbug's Team meeting. So pretty but super easy!

     

     

     

    You could make up to 25 cards using this kit just by adding card bases, a few layers and greetings.  The red adhesive-backed sequins, Dimensionals, Cherry Cobbler and craft twine all comes in the kit. 

     

    Rustic Christmas 1 Save

    See this kit here online.  Our Christmas kits can sell out quick; so don't wait too long.  You never know if it will be back in time for Christmas. 

    The kits is gorgeous as an advent project as well!  It also includes the cutest clothespins to close the envelopes.
