Pretty Botanical swap cards; all Monochromatic!

January 20, 2022

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.

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.

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.
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!

Control Freak’s Blog Hop; Favorite Colors theme!

January 19, 2022
Save

Welcome to the January Blog Hop from our talented Control Freaks group! Our theme this month is to use our favorite Stampin' Up! color and make it monochromatic!

If you just stopped in from Wendy's blog I'm sure you enjoyed her projects. She is super creative!

I haven't joined a blog hop in awhile and I've missed it! This color theme was perfect for me as my Flowerbug's Team swapped monochromatic cards last week. I've been sharing them here all week long.

My first card features a new stamp set called Crane of Fortune.

Save

I chose to feature Misty Moonlight with Night of Navy & White. The Crane of Fortune stamp set is new in our Stampin' Up! January-June catalog. It's a Distinktive stamp set which means you get multiple hues of color with one inking. These are my favorite type of stamps. Look how pretty the images are in one color and so easy too!

After I stamped the crane I textured it with the Tasteful Textile 3D embossing folder.

This card is a very simple fun fold. Here are the measurements:
- Score your 5 1/2" X 8 1/2" card base at 2 1/8" & 4 1/4"
- Misty Moonlight layer 1 7/8" X 5 1/4"
- White layers are 3 1/4" X 4 1/2"
- Navy layer is 3 1/2" X 4 3/4"
Save

I stamped some of the dragonflies on the front layer of Misty Moonlight. I used White Craft ink for a soft, subtle effect. As you can see I made quite a few of them for our Team swap!

Save

Next is a pretty card in Soft Succulent & White.

Save

I used the new Artfully Layered stamp set along with the Stitched Rectangle dies. This technique is called Triple Time Stamping.

To achieve this layered effect I stamped all three of the White layers at the same time. Then you adhere each piece to a Soft Succulent layer and put the pieces back together; almost like a puzzle. It's a great way to create quick, eye catching cards.

Measurements:
- Soft Succulent – 5 1/2" X 8 1/2" card base, 4 1/8" X 2 7/8" & 3" X 1 5/8"
- White – 5 1/4" X 4", 4" X 2 5/8" & 2 3/4" X 1 3/8"

Blessings of Home card ideas; beautiful layouts

January 18, 2022
This week I'm sharing Monochromatic cards made by my Flowerbug's Team members. It was our swap theme this month.

It was a challenge for some but their cards were incredible as usual! Both cards today feature the Blessings of Home bundle; seen here.

This first card was created by Marilyn. Her colors include Misty Moonlight, Night of Navy & White.

Save

She used the large flower image to create a background using Misty Moonlight ink for a pretty tone on tone look. She stamped the flower again on a piece of White CS and used the dies to cut it out. You cannot see in the photo but she added Wink of Stella to the flower.

It's adhered over a pretty Encircled in Beauty Navy die-cut.

Save

This next card was created by Tracey using the same Blessings of Home bundle.

She used 3 different designer papers here – Heart & Home, Hand-Penned & the In Color 6 X 6" prints. I love how our colors & products coordinate so effortlessly. Our color coordination is what brought me to Stampin' Up! and keeps me happy to stay.
Save

Details:
- She stamped her flower image in Basic Gray ink and colored it in with Blends markers. It's fussy cut with the coordinating die-cut.
- She heat embossed her greeting with White embossing powder onto Designer Paper. What a gorgeous card and a neat layout.
- The White CS behind the flower is textured with our new Gingham embossing folder seen here
