Around the Bend with the stunning Fine Shimmer paper


Here's another sample of the Around the Bend bundle. This time I featured the Dainty Flowers DSP from Sale-a-Bration and the Fine Shimmer specialty paper. 

The Fine Shimmer specialty paper comes in three colors – two 12 X 12" sheet of each in Soft Succulent, Gold & Fresh Freesia. You can see it here.  

I cut the curved layers and the leaves in the bundle from the Soft Succulent sheet.  Because this specialty paper is slightly thicker than most papers I added a shim of copy paper in my sandwich.  It helped a lot!  

Below you can see this Around the Bend bundle.  I think the curves are totally unique from anything we've had before.  I evenlike the greetings! 

You can choose from Photopolymer (clear) or Cling (red rubber) when ordering this stamp set or bundle.  There are several with this option in the 2023 Spring catalog. See it here.

I made a bunch of these for our January card swap with my Flowerbug's Team. We hold an optional swap each month with a variety of themes. This time was to use products from the Sale-a-Bration or 2023 Spring catalog. 

You can see another pretty card here using this same bundle. 

Below is the video where I made this card; it's the 2nd project.

  • Poetic Expression fun fold swap card


    Last week I shared this image on Facebook.  It was a bit of a tease to guess what the finished card would be like. 

    It has Pool Party, White, Lost Lagoon and some Poetic Expressions designer paper (retiring in April). 

    It also shows the greeting die-cut from the Thoughtful Moments Hybrid embossing folder seen here.  I feel like it makes my greetings extra special.  They're a pretty font and give texture and dimension to your projects. (I shared how to use this folder here in a video.)

    And that is the finished card.  I made 12 of these for an organized fun fold swap. I am a huge fan of monochromatic cards and these colors are at the top of my favorites list.  

    The tag is from the Something Fancy dies seen here.  I love the many label & greeting shapes this set has. 

    Here's the inside view. 

    Measurements are so simple!  Once you cut off the end of the card front you flip it 90 degrees and use it as the front layer. 

    • Card base – 11" X 4 1/4" score at 5 1/2"; cut off one end at 2 3/4"
    • DSP – 1 piece at 2" X 4", 2nd piece at 4" X 3" 
    • Inside White 5 1/4" X 4" 

    Here's the inside view.  This greeting is from the Simply Zinnia set seen here.

  • Last of the WOW Amazing Team swaps


    Last week (and yesterday) I shared many of our March Online Exclusive Team swaps and today is the last set. 

    This first card was made by Jacki who featured the Encircled in Nature bundle. You can find it here in the Online store.  


    Count the dies used here; she is never one to keep it simple!  Her colors include Pecan Pie, Shaded Spruce and Early Espresso. 

    The card is 8 1/2" X 5 1/2" scored at 4 1/4". Then she scored the front from bottom center to the upper left. And she added layers; two layers including the A Little Latte designer paper.  

    It opens as a stand up Easel card.  Isn't it fabulous?!!

    She also used the Sweetly Scripted stamp set seen here.  It's unavailable right now but should be back.  No date is known at this time.  She used the double oval punch to hold up the easel layers.  What an amazing card! 

    ~~~

    Next is a sweet card made by Sharon who chose the Fluffiest Friends bundle seen here.

    Her colors include Wild Wheat, White & Old Olive. Lots of texture here with the Exposed Brick and Cane Weave 3D folders.

    I hope you enjoyed their creations.  I love seeing their styles and creativity!

  • Pretty Team card swaps you don’t want to miss!


    Today I'm continuing the March Team swap shares. Our theme was Online Exclusives and wow; did they show these products off! 

    First is a stunning card made by Jonna who chose to feature the Magnolia Mood bundle seen here. 

    Her colors include Bubble Bath, Pebbled Path & Lost Lagoon. Her floral image is colored amazingly!  She added a loop of the Bubble Bath ribbon and underneath the flower is a die-cut from the bundle. Her embossing folder is the Softly Sophisticated that is retired now.  

    ~~~

    Next is a fun fold card made by Paula. She featured the Friendship Royalty set seen here.  

    This set and the Bright & Beautiful designer paper are not in our Online Exclusives but in the Annual catalog. She folded back the front fold 1" and added Bubble Bath CS to it.  The front dies are from our Nested Essential dies seen here. 

    Here's the inside view which I love! 

    That wand she created to add over the swirly stars image is genius!  I just love her creativity!  

    Stop in tomorrow to see two more of our March Team swaps. You don't want to miss them!
