Baby Wipe technique – 2 great swaps by my Flowerbug’s

Our March card swap theme was to use a technique with a re-inker or an ink refill.  There are lots of fun techniques out there that you need ink refills for. 

These first two feature the Baby Wipe technique; one of my very favorites for getting multiple colors on solid images! 

This first card was made by Marla where she featured the Love for You bundle seen here.  

Save

I believe her colors include Bermuda Bay, Granny Apple Green, Melon Mambo and Calypso Coral.  She even stamped her greeting in the baby wipe technique.  Watch my video today here   (or later on my YouTube channel here) to see how it's done.  It's absolutely fun!!

Next is a pretty card made by Jacki with the Art Gallery stamp set and Floral Gallery dies.  

Save

I believe her colors include Navy, Garden Green and Tahitian Tide.  Her White layers are textured with the Painted Texture 3D embossing folder seen here.  

Come back for more tomorrow! Click here or on the photo below to watch the video.

• Pretty Detailed Dogwood card swaps

  January 18, 2024

  ---

  Today I'm sharing a few swaps I received featuring the new Detailed Dogwood stamp set – one of the choices in the 2024 Sale-a-Bration catalog. 

  Trayce Bauer made this stunning card using Bubble Bath, Granny Apple Green and Mossy Meadow.

  Save

  She fussy cut the flowers out and added them to the Bubble Bath layer that has been embossed using the Softly Sophisticated embossing folder – also from our Sale-a-Bration selection.

  I love how she added the dotted image to create a background on both the white layer and the greeting! The greeting die is from the Thoughtful Expressions dies.  

  Below is a photo of the stamp set.  See it here online.

  Save

  It's free with a $100 purchase from Stampin' Up! through February 29th when Sale-a-Bration ends.  

  Next is a gorgeous card made by Angie Leach. 

  Save

  She used a beautiful set of neutral colors – Pebbled Path, Wild Wheat, Mossy Meadow and Copper Clay. The large white die is from the Postage dies. Wow!

  I love the layout. Adding a few strips below your main focal point adds balance and interest and ties the colors together too. 

  ~~~

  This last card is also a swap I received but I cannot give credit to the creator as there wasn't a name on it. 

  Save

  Her colors of Black, Real Red and White are stunning! Note the simple stamped background on the large White layer, mimicking the main floral image.  That dragonfly is such a neat image. It does not coordinate with our Dragonfly punch unfortunately.

• 2 card ideas with Cradled in Love – a sweet set that’s free during Sale-a-Bration

  January 17, 2024

  ---

  One of the free stamp set choices in the Sale-a-Bration catalog is the Cradled in Love set.  A sweet group of stamps perfect for baby cards.  See this stamp set here. 

  Here's a quick card I created for my Open House boards: 

  Save

  My colors include Flirty Flamingo, White & Smoky Slate.  That large die-cut is from our new Perennial Postage dies seen here. 

  Save

  
  

  I paired it with the new Most Adored specialty designer paper – another free option during Sale-a-Bration this year. I added a 2" wide strip under the main element diagonally. 

  Both the stamp set and paper are available through February or while supplies last.  See this pretty paper here.  It's filled with gold foil designs on one side and Flirty Flamingo & Real Red on the other. 

  Save

  This photo does not show it well at all.  The colors are rich and gorgeous!

  Below is a super cute swap card I received from my friend Amy Storrie.  

  Save

  She used the Lighter Than Air designer paper, Highland Heather, Lemon Lolly, Gray and White. That adorable scalloped border from the Basic Borders dies adds so much!  I just love it!

• Softly Sophisticated fun-fold card with free project sheet to save & download

  January 16, 2024

  ---

  Here's the other fun fold card I shared on last week's Live video.  See the other one here. 

  I chose to feature the new Softly Sophisticated bundle from our 2024 Sale-a-Bration catalog. 

  Save

  See this pretty bundle here. Both the stamp set & embossing folder are free with any $100 purchase through February. 

  It might not look like a fun fold card, but the front main layers open instead of the entire card like this: 

  Save

  The colors include Bubble Bath, White and Lost Lagoon.  During my video I shared another one with Boho Blue instead.  It all depends on which sheet of the beautiful Flight & Airy designer paper you choose!  

  Save

  Did you wonder which dies I used on the designer paper and the greeting label?  They're the Thoughtful Expressions dies – one of my new favorites.  See them here. 

  Save

  See this pretty Flight & Airy designer paper here.  It's free with any $50 purchase through February; while supplies last.  Don't delay if you want it! I suspect this will be one of the firsts to sell out…. 

  Save

  I love Sale-a-Bration where you can earn free products!  See it all here. 

  Below is the video you can watch to see this card and another special fun fold card.  Don't forget to follow me on YouTube!
