Beautiful Balloons card swaps

May 25, 2023

This week I've been sharing card swaps made by my Flowerbug's Team. Our swap theme for May was to use new products from the 2023-24 Annual Catalog.

This colorful, birthday card was made by Sharon. It's full of texture, patterns and is also a simple fun fold.

She trimmed off an inch from the right side of her card front to reveal the neat fringe die-cut on the inside of the card. The pattern paper is from the Bright & Beautiful 6 X 6" paper seen here.

More details:

Colors include Boho Blue, Berry Burst, Lemon Lime Twist & Blueberry Bushel.
The balloons & greeting are die-cuts from the Beautiful Balloons bundle
The texture on the card front is made with the Basics 3D 3 pack of embossing folders seen here. They're part of our Online Exclusives.

Both of the cards today are made with the Beautiful Balloons bundle seen here. It's a fabulous set of balloon themed stamps & dies.

Today I have the last set of swaps my Flowerbug’s created for our Christmas card swaps this month. They’re super talented!

First is a beautiful card made by Tracey who used a variety of designer paper blocks & strips to create a focal point for her greeting.

Save

Her designer paper is from the Online Exclusive pack called Elegant Pine Snowflakes. You can see it here. The leaf & berry die-cuts are from the Label Me Grateful dies seen here. One of my favorites!

Look at this gorgeous nativity scene Candy made for her swap! She used the A Child is Born set seen here.

Save

She used blends markers to color the scene on Crumb Cake card stock. The die-cut is from the Branching Out dies, the embossing folder is the Peaceful Greenery folder. Just stunning! Just look at her beautiful coloring.

Save

And lastly today is a pretty card made by Gwen who featured the incredible Traditions of Christmas suite seen here.

Save

This beautiful designer paper is currently unavailable until November. The stunning greeting & die set called Traditional Labels is a classic. See it here.

Isn’t that cool? It’s a little challenging to get the angles and layers cut evenly but I share tips on that in the video below.

Peace on Earth easel card with free project sheet & video tutorial

October 21, 2025
Here’s one more pretty card I made on last week’s video. I featured the Peaceful Garden suite seen here.

Save

My colors are Night of Navy with White. The beautiful Peace on Earth bundle and Peaceful Greenery embossing folder are the stars here. I also added Wink of Stella to the dove’s wings.

I created a free project sheet with measurements & directions. Click here to access it.

The easel stands up on the inside greeting layers. The stamp & dies are part of the Traditional Labels bundle seen here. I think this is a must have if you make your own Christmas cards. Inside, I adhered the greeting die-cut to a fold of Misty Moonlight silver-edges ribbon with Stampin’ Dimensionals.

Below is the video for this card and two more featuring this Peaceful Garden suite.
