• Gorgeous Fall Swaps from the Flowerbug’s!

  August 18, 2020

  ---

  Today I'm sharing a few of the amazing cards my Flowerbug's Team swapped this weekend.  The theme was Fall cards. 

  Annette made this first one using the Rooted in Nature bundle.  

  Save

  You may not see it well but she used the leaf dies in this set to create a textured White background.  Her colors are Cinnamon Cider & Rich Razzleberry.  A unique, Asian inspired card!

  Save

  Paula made this one using the Autumn Goodness bundle.  It's a fun fold too where the front, middle is the card opening! That piece is 3 3/4" X 8 1/2" folded in half. 

  The pretty designer paper is the Gilded Autumn specialty paper.  This bundle includes dies that cut out the flowers and the wheelbarrow.  

  Save

  Candace made this one with two stamp sets; the Life is Beautiful for the leaves and greeting and the Way to Goat set for the goat who's kicking up the leaves!  Super fun and colorful!

• Love of Leaves; get two colors on one stamp!

  August 17, 2020

  ---

  I was inspired by a card swap I received to create this pretty card.  It features the Love of Leaves bundle; one of my favorites in the new Stampin' Up! 2020 Holiday Catalog.  there's also a 3/4" strip of the beautiful Plaid Tidings designer paper here which is where the color combination came from. 

  We made this colorful card at my Flowerbug's Team gathering on Saturday.  It features a two toned stamping technique you should really try!  The solid images are perfect for it! 

  Save

  Can you see the two toned effect on the largest leaf?   It's done like this:  

  • Ink the leaf in Pumpkin Pie (the lightest color of the two).
  • Next use a sponge dauber (can use a sponge too, but it's more difficult to control) and add Rich Razzleberry ink (the darker color) to the edges of the leaf image.  
  • Huff and stamp. Then die-cut with the Stitched Leaves dies. 

  I did the same thing on the long leaf with Crushed Curry & Pumpkin Pie but it isn't showing up as well.

  Save

  Other details:

  • White CS is 3 1/2" X 4 3/4" and textured with the Stitched Leaves dies
  • Plaid Tidings DSP is 3/4" X 5 1/4" 
  • Rich Razzleberry main card is 5 1/2" X 8 1/2". 
  • Inks are Rich Razzleberry, Pumpkin Pie and Crushed Curry. 
  • The greeting is punched from the Label Me Lovely punch. I started out with a 1" White strip of card stock.  Stamp the greeting and insert into the punch for a unique shape!

• Stitched Window cards; FB Live Replay

  August 14, 2020

  ---

  This week's Stamp with Me Live video featured a window technique using dies.  The 2nd & 4th Monday of the month I offer a 'Stamp with Me' Live on my FB page here.  Be sure to follow my page so you get notified! 

  My original card idea came from the Holiday catalog and used the Love of Leaves dies.  But I switched it up to use the Stitched Stars dies with the Playful Patterns designer series paper for these fun cards: 

  Save

  I used the smallest three star dies to create 'windows' in my card stock.  Then I popped them up over the Playful Patterns designer paper. Add a greeting and another card stock strip and you're done!  So quick & easy! 

  Watch the video below to catch all of the tips and see the original cards too.  

  Measurements:

  • Card stock for window 4 1/4" X 3 1/4"
  • Designer Paper 4 1/2" X 3 1/2"
  • Greeting strips 3/4"-1" X 4" wide

  You can see these items in my store when you click on the links:
