You’ll love this easy sketch idea for a quick & pretty card

On last week's Live video I focused on the pretty Mediterranean Blooms designer paper and this pretty color combination:

My colors include Lemon Lolly, Night of Navy, White & a touch of green in the pretty Mediterranean Blooms DSP.  It's on sale for a few more days! See it here. 

The card base is 4 1/4"X 11" scored at 5 1/2". The Lemon Lolly is 4" X 5 1/4", DSP is 2" X 5 1/4", Navy strip 1/4" X 5 1/4" 

Each month in my Flowerbug's Team we have an optional challenge that features a sketch of color combination. This is the current sketch and it inspired me to create this pretty card.

Card sketches are drawings or images that can help inspire your creativity. They're a starting point. Use the basic design and change it any way you'd like.  

The greeting is from the Nested Essential dies seen here.  The pretty embossing folder on the Lemon Lolly layer is called Dashing Designs and can be seen here.

Below is a video where I share a few more ideas for this DSP and the Citrus Blooms dies.

• Easy idea with your leftover paper strips with Artfully Layered

  January 5, 2022

  ---

  I had a bunch of leftover Just Jade card stock strips I was determined to use. I believe it was from a fun fold card I offered in one of my kits to go. Luckily inspiration struck and I created this neat card for an online swap I participated in.  I love it! 

  Save

  I used the new bundle called Artfully Layered stamping the largest leaf multiple times in Just Jade ink.  The botanical images, dies and super fun greetings in this bundle were one of my top picks from the new 2022 Jan-June Stampin' Up! catalog.  You can see this bundle here. 

  Save

  Each of the strips are 1" X 3 1/4" and they are adhered to a White piece measuring 3 3/4" X 5".  I adhered them so they did not match up purposefully.  You could also stamp them as shown and place them onto the card in order.

  Simply add a greeting and a punch or die-cut.  I LOVE when I can use leftovers to create wonderful cards easily.  

  Save

  The greeting die-cut is from the Beautiful Shapes dies seen here.  They include circles, hexagons, a few odd shapes & triangles.  They're fun, modern & unique!

• Swedish Stars in both Shimmer Vellum & Simply Marbelous Designer Paper with easy video tutorial

  January 3, 2022

  ---

  Have you seen some of these fancy folded stars online and thought you could never make them?  Well this one is so much easier than it looks and I made them on a FB Live recently.  

  Save

  Honestly they are quite easy.  Basically you need a 6 X 6" piece of Designer paper – twelve 1/2" X 6" strips to create them.  I did add a medallion in the center but it's not necessary at all.  Here I used the brand new Simply Marbelous designer paper from the new Sale-a-Bration catalog.  It's available in 6 different colors and absolutely gorgeous!!

  Save

  I also made a few in our 2021-23 In Color Shimmer seen here & Gold Shimmer vellum seen here. I used snowflakes from the So Many Snowflakes dies in the Stampin' Up! Annual Catalog.

• Calming Camelia stamp set; a Sneak Peak of Sale-a-Bration 2022

  December 31, 2021

  ---

  Here's a sneak peak of two of my favorite Sale-a-Bration choices. The Calming Camelia stamp set & Simply Marbelous Designer Paper.  I created a bunch of these for an online swap. 

  Save

  Isn't it pretty?  It's a distinktive type stamp which means you get multiple hues of color with one inking.  I just love the swirls and the greetings.  

  My colors are Bumblebee & Basic Gray.  I did heat emboss the greeting in White embossing powder and punched it out with the Tailored Tag punch; my favorite for greetings!

  Sale-a-Bration starts on January 4th!  Are you ready for it?
