Add color to the Sunflower 3D embossing folder. Wow!

September 1, 2025

You’ve likely seen lots of cards made with the new Sunflower 3D embossing folder but have you seen any like this?!

We made this card at my August card clubs and it was a big hit! Turquoise might not be a traditional color but it sure is pretty! This technique will work beautifully with yellows & oranges too.

We started by embossing a white layer of card stock with the embossing folder. Then using the debossed side, added Coastal Cabana ink to the petals with a sponge dauber.

Next we did the ‘direct to paper’ technique – rubbing our ink pad directly onto the embossed card stock – with Pecan Pie ink. After that we did the same with Early Espresso ink. This picked up the fine details in the embossing. Gorgeous!!

This Sunflower 3D embossing folder has been out of stock twice already and it’s in low inventory again! You can see it here. Get it while it’s available! Online Exclusive products are while supplies last…..

Below is the video I made showing this technique. I hope you watch it. Don’t forget to follow me on YouTube here or Facebook here.

This unique die cuts out the center of your paper; not the outside. It gives you a beautiful bouquet of flowers in a frame. That cute greeting banner is also part of the die set.

Details:
- The greeting is from the Timeless Tulips stamp set and is heat embossed in White embossing powder on Calypso Coral CS.
- The ribbon is the 1/4" White crinkled ribbon colored with the Dark Pool Party Blends marker.
- The flowers and stems are colored with Blends markers; they color so easily!
- That pretty designer paper behind the window is the Follow Your Art paper in the annual catalog on page 165.

Under My Umbrella Bridge fold card with video

February 24, 2020
This card was a big hit at my Card Clubs in February. It's a bridge fold card featuring the Under My Umbrella bundle. See it here.

To create this card you'll cut your base card short and add another short piece at the bottom. The Daffodil and Balmy Blue layers 'bridge' the base layers. Really cool. And I was able to die-cut the Balmy Blue scalloped rectangle from the leftover piece from the middle. I love using my card stock so perfectly. *See measurements below.

The Under My Umbrella stamps and punch bundle is just $30.50 for both! It has so MANY cute images and wonderful greetings. I just love it! We stamped the images in Basic Gray ink and colored them in with Blends markers

Thoughtful Blooms with the Small Bloom punch

February 21, 2020
Here are a few more swap cards made by my Flowerbug's Team this month. I just love seeing what my gals create for our swaps!

The Thoughtful Blooms stamp set coordinates with the Small Blooms punch. See them here and here:

Jacki made this beautiful card. I love the many layers and details here. And the colors are fresh and unique – Soft Suede, Mint Macaron, Bermuda Bay and White. She used the new Label Me Fancy punch, the Starburst punch, Leaf punch and the Painted Label dies for the swirl. The greeting is from the Peaceful Moments set. That gorgeous texture is from the Parisian Flourish embossing folder seen here.

Candace made this unique card below:

Her colors are Gorgeous Grape, Balmy Blue and Granny Apple Green. Isn't this layout fun?! the technique is called Triple Stamping. You place your White layers in position as shown without the Grape layers in between and stamp on the three pieces all at once. Then add the Grape layers and adhere to your main card. Super easy and fun too.

She added a pretty greeting in Purple Posy with the Stitched So Sweetly dies (my favorite!) and the punched flowers from the Small Bloom punch.

Measurements:
- Grape – 5 1/2" X 8 1/2", 4 1/4" X 3 1/4" and 3 1/4" X 2 1/4"
- White – 4" X 5 1/4", 4" X 3" and 3" X 2"
