Beautiful Glitz & Shine card swaps


Today is the second batch of Glitz, Shine or Glimmer card swaps by my Flowerbug's Team.  You'll love the wide array of gorgeous cards they made! 

But first I have to tell you about the Last Chance & Carry Over lists from the 2023 Holiday catalog. 

 

The holiday catalog ends January 3rd and they've released the items that are retiring AND those that will carry over into 2024. *see all items here!

This Last Chance Products promotion will include two lists: a retiring list and a carryover list.

Details:

  • Not all items on the Last Chance Products List will be discounted. 
  • All products are available while supplies last, and there are no purchase limits.
  • Stamp sets are not guaranteed during this promotion and are while supplies last.

  • Happy Easter with a Floating Die-cuts Technique card


    Our family gathers together for Easter most of the time; when we can that is. 

    We do jelly bean hunts with our granddaughter inside and an Easter Egg hunt outside weather permitting.  What are your traditions for Easter?   

    I shared this card on last week's Facebook Live when I did Paper Strips Techniques. You can see it here.  

    On this card I adhered strips or punched circles to our Acetate and then used the Oval Dies to cut them out.  I had to run it through multiple times as our acetate is very thick. But it die work!

  • A beautiful scene with the ‘Here’s to You’ kit; a Paper Pumpkin alternate idea


    The March Paper Pumpkin kit included stencils and a sponge in the kit so I had to play with creating a scene.  It's one of my favorite techniques! 

    One of the stencils has clouds in it.  I used Pool Party ink and lightly sponged on the upper part of my White CS. 

    Then I sponged Daffodil Delight and Calypso Coral ink about an inch and a half from the bottom edge.  Now I stamped the trees image in the kit with Pretty Peacock ink.  I did not reink the stamp each time so as I stamped repeatedly I achieved the appearance of a distant forest. Love this!!  

    The birds and greeting images also came in this kit.

    The April kit is called 'So Cool' with a 'treats' theme. Opt in to get it by April 10th! 

    • The So Cool Paper Pumpkin Kit is a little taste of summer fun, with enough supplies to make 12 colorful, shaped cards with coordinating envelopes. Six card bases are popsicle shaped, the other six are semicircles: three watermelons and three rainbows. All of the cards are splashed with cheerful, vivid watercolor images. The kit also includes two full-size, matching sticker sheets, die-cut accents, fun embellishments, and more.
    • Even though the So Cool Kit was designed with kids in mind, these fun-shaped cards, featuring vivid watercolors, are versatile enough to gift to kids of all ages—the young in years and the young at heart. They’re a great way to send some “sunshine in a card!” Who wouldn’t love that?
    • The kit’s exclusive So Cool Stamp Set is versatile, offering sentiments that can be used for multiple occasions such as birthdays, congrats, cheer, and more! It’s a great addition to any crafter’s collection.

  • Snailed It; fun, colorful & adorable


    This is another card we made at my March Card Clubs.  I featured the Snailed It Bundle seen here.  

    This cute designer paper is retiring and not returning in the new Annual Catalog in May. It is full of bright colors and adorable patterns.   I used the Rectangular Postage Stamp Punch seen here. 

    That cute envelope comes in the set of Snail dies. And quite a few of these dies coordinate with the Snail Mail designer paper too! 

    Measurements:

    • Card base (Daffodil or Bermuda Bay) 5 1/2" X 4 1/4"
      Real Red 3 1/2" X 10 1/2" scored at 4 3/4"
      Whisper White 3 3/4" X 5"
      Scraps of Snail Mail DSP and White for punches & die-cuts 
      Bermuda Bay scrap for die-cut envelope

    Here's the video; watch to catch the many tips and tricks on this card.
