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: 

Med blooms sketch Save

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.

  • 3 completely different cards with the Friendly Hello bundle; WOW!

    Our Sale-a-Bration promotion is everyone's favorite time of year; who doesn't love to get something free?!  

    This year our product line includes a stamp set & 12 X 12" designer paper combo called Friendly Hello.  I love both the stamps and the DSP.  The stamps include floral, botanical and greeting images and the paper can be either soft & pretty or bright & eye catching! 

    FRIENDLY HELLO BUNDLE (ENGLISH) Save

    Look at these three extremely different cards all featuring the same stamps & DSP:

    Friendly Hello & Tropical Layers Save

    This card is one I made for an online swap I participated in.  I chose to use the Granny Apple Green sheet of DSP and paired it with Black & White. It's a simple layout that really shows off the colors & products.

    Details:

    • The greeting is stamped onto a die-cut from the Hippo & Friends die. 
    • That delicate leaf die-cut is from the Tropical Layers dies in the Jan-June catalog.  
    • The butterfly is from the Catching Butterflies Sale-a-Bration stamp set. 

    Next is a pretty swap Ginny made but so much softer in colors.  

    Jan Friendly Hello Ginny Save

    She covered the entire card front with her Designer Paper and added a banner from another sheet of the DSP under the main White scalloped piece.  She stamped in Gray Granite and colored in the bird & flowers with Blends markers.  

    Lastly today is another card I made for a swap.  I paired the Pool Party sheet of this Designer Paper with Early Espresso.  I've always loved these colors together.  I stamped the flowers in Early Espresso ink onto our Vellum card stock and immediately heat embossed with clear embossing powder.  Yes you CAN emboss with our Classic ink pads!  

    Friendly Hello & Tropical Layers Save

    I textured the Pool Party card stock with the new Gingham embossing folder and rounded the upper right corner.  I also cut our new frayed 3/4" White ribbon in half lengthwise and wrapped it round the left edge of the card stock.  

    Thanks so much for stopping in to see my projects today!  If you want to get this pretty pack of Designer Paper & the Friendly Hello stamp set click here to see it.  It's free with any $100 purchase right now!

  • Pretty Botanical swap cards; all Monochromatic!

    This week I'm showcasing my talented Flowerbug's Team swaps with their monochromatic cards.  

    First up is Karen's card; she used the Amazing Silhouettes stamp set; seen here in the new Jan-June catalog.  

    Jan Amazing Silhouettes Karen Save

    She stamped the floral image three times on her White CS using Evening Evergreen ink.  The last one is stamped on Vellum and fussy cut.  She added a double tag die-cut from the Tailored Tags dies along with a bow in Soft Succulent ribbon.  

    Next is a pretty card in Fresh Freesia made by Paula S.  She used a favorite stamp set of mine; the Queen Anne's Lace stamp set, along with some sponging and distressing of the edges.  

    Jan Queen Annes Lace Paula Save

    Our In Color sheer ribbon is wonderful; easy to work with, soft & lovely!  

    Next is a pretty & very detailed card made by Sharon.  She used Soft Succulent with Evening Evergreen and the Ever Eden specialty designer paper. 

    Jan Queen Annes Lace Paula Save

    She created double stitched window frames with the Stitched Rectangle dies. They're adhered over a scalloped rectangle made with the Stitched So Sweetly dies.  Her leaves are die-cut from our Shimmer In Color Vellum using the Forever Flourishing dies.  The greeting is from the Prized Peony stamp set. 

    Stop in for more Monochromatic card swaps tomorrow!
