  • Beautiful swap cards with Holiday Catalog stamp sets


    Today I'm sharing more of my Flowerbug Team card swaps featuring Holiday Catalog stamps or bundles.  

    First up is a beautiful card made by Tracey featuring the Perched in a Tree bundle seen here.

    Her colors are Soft Suede, Petal Pink and Mango Melody. The designer papers are Texture Chic and the Silver & Gold Sale-a-Bration DSP.  We stamped & sponged the Silver & gold DSP to add coordinating colors. 

    The gold leaves are from the Chic dies cut from the Distressed Gold DSP.  The solid leaves are from the Aspen dies.  That pretty texture on the Soft Suede layer is the Twigs & Sprigs embossing folder seen here.  All contribute to making this card stunning! 

    Measurements:

    • Card base 5 1/2" X 8 1/2"
    • Soft Suede 4" X 5 1/4"
    • DSP are both 3" X 4"

    ~~~

    Next is a soft & pretty card Marilyn made.  She used the Splendid Thoughts bundle.

    Her colors are Coastal Cabana with Soft Suede & White.  The Splendid Stems dies add a delicate natural touch.  

    The White is textured with the Painted Texture embossing folder.  The corners on this piece are punched with the new Very Best Trio punch seen here.  The soft DSP is from the Splendid Day specialty paper seen here.  

    Measurements:

    • Coastal Cabana is 5 1/2" X 8 1/2" scored at 2 1/8" & 4 1/4"
    • Soft Suede – 3 3/4" X 5"
    • White is 3 1/2" X 4 3/4"
    • DSP & Coastal Cabana layers are 2 3/4" X 3 1/4" 

    ~~~

    Lastly for today is a pretty card made by Paula.  She cased a card made by Colleen Magness.  It features the pretty Soft Seedlings stamp set. It's a Distinktive set which means you get multiple hues of color when stamping.  Although she did use a sponging technique to achieve her multiple colors.  

    She inked the stamp in Crushed Curry first, then added Old Olive to the stem with a marker.  Then used a finger dauber to add pumpkin pie and cherry cobbler ink on stamp.  Huff & stamp!  

    The leaf texture on her Vanilla layer is made with the Leaf Fall 3D folder seen here.  It's new!  

    Measurements:

    • Crushed Curry card base 4 1/4" X 11"
    • Vanilla 5 1/8" X 3 7/8"
    • Cherry Cobbler 5 1/4" X 4"
    • Pumpkin Pie 5 3/8 X 4 1/8"

  • More Team Swaps include multiple ‘WOW’ cards!


    Every month our Flowerbug's Team has an optional card swap and I always think it's the best group of cards ever.  Then another month comes and they get even better!  How is it possible?!  

    This first card today features the Brightest Beauty bundle seen here.  It's in our Holiday catalog and has been on my wish list for awhile.  I think she pushed me over the edge with her card!  

    Her colors include Old Olive & Crushed Curry with White.  I LOVE the frame she made with the Fabulous Frames dies!  The rest of the dies are from the Brightest Beauty bundle.  That stamped background behind the frame and the main image are wonderful together.  The plain white behind the pretty flower & leaves really show the stamped image off.  And that greeting die! 

    ~~~

    Next is an amazing card made by Candace.  She is the expert at sponging backgrounds.  Always so smooth and blended.  

    Who would think of adding a Hippo to Snowflakes?!!  But it works perfectly.  

    Details:

    • Colors include Gorgeous Grape, White, Highland Heather & Pacific Point
    • The Hippo is from the Hippest Hippos stamp set & dies from our Sale-a-Bration promotion. 
    • The snowflake frame is from the Snowman dies & the Red & White glimmer paper
    • The embossing folder is from the Wintry duo in the Annual catalog
    • She achieved her beautiful background by using Blending Brushes.
    • The pretty 'iridescent' snowflake is from our Wonderful Snowflakes seen here  
    • She printed the greetings on White card stock using her printer! 

    ~~~

    Next is a simple yet beautiful card made by Annette. She let the Twigs & Sprigs embossing folder take the prime spot on her card. This folder comes in a bundle with dies seen here. 

    Her colors are Old Olive with Very Vanilla.  The greeting is from the Color & Contour bundle.  The offset circles add a playful touch. 

    Come back for more incredible swap cards tomorrow!
