Beautiful Monochromatic swaps with 3D embossing folders


This week I’ll be sharing my Flowerbug’s Team swaps for August.  Our theme was monochromatic and they are all wonderful!

The two cards today are both made with 3D embossing folders. This first pretty card was made by Tracey. 

Her colors include Petal Pink, Calpyso Coral and Cajun Craze. She used the Happy Hibiscus bundle. It was on the Last Chance list; but only the embossing folder & dies are left but they are discounted and they easily stand alone without the stamp set!  See them here. 

She started with the Beautiful Bokeh DSP seen here and after texturing it added ink with sponging and the ‘Direct to Paper’ method. This is when you add ink by tapping or rubbing the ink pad directly onto the paper.  She blended Calypso Coral on the large flowers, Timid Tiger on the Medium ones. She finished by dragging White Craft ink across it all. 

Here’s how she stamped the inside:

This next card was made by Lori. She used the beautiful Sunflower 3D embossing folder seen here.  

This folder is out of stock right now.  But you can put your name on a list (on the link above) to be notified when it becomes available again. 

Her colors include Daffodil Delight with Early Espresso.  The card base is Crushed Curry. 

She sponged Daffodil Delight ink to the raised areas and it looked so much like Crushed Curry she used that for the card base. I love that she added an extra sunflower to the front to give it more dimension!  This one is fussy cut. 

Her greeting is from the More Messages bundle seen here.   

I’ll be sharing our swap cards all week; stay tuned!

  • More Cutest Cow projects by our Artist of the Month!


    Wait until you see the rest of Deloris's projects with the Cutest Cow bundle! 

    This first card is a fun scene in an accordion style or 'stepper card' that she cased from Queen Bee Creations. 

    She used Granny Apple Green with Black & White. She added a sky background using blending brushes. She fussy cut her grass. The greeting is punched with the Heartfelt Hexagon punch. 

    Measurements:

    • Card base 5 1/2" X 11" scored at 2 1/2", 5", 6 3/4", 8 1/2" & 9 3/4"
    • Grass layers are 5 1/4" wide and approximately 2" & 1 5/8" high
    • White sponged layer 5" X 3 3/4"
    • Black is 5 1/4" X 4" 

    Next is a fun play on a 'purple cow'. Have you ever had that drink?  Ice cream added to grape soda – yum!

    How cute is this!?  Her colors include Highland Heather, Gorgeous Grape, Black & White. The die-cuts are from the wonderful & popular Nested Essentials dies seen here. 

    And lastly a scene directly from the farm! Deloris used to have milk cows on her farm so she knows cows!   

    Her colors include Blueberry Bushel, Crushed Curry, Old Olive, Black & White. The designer paper is from the Glorious Gingham pack seen here. The Banner greeting die is also from the Nested Essentials dies. 

    Thank you Deloris for sharing your incredible projects with us!  

     

    As you can see with her adorable projects, the Cutest Cow bundle is super cute & fun to create with!  The stamp set & punch will be sold in the new Annual Catalog coming out in May. It will not be available in a bundle at 10% off though; the items will be sold separately.

  • Amazing Artist of the Month projects with the Cutest Cow bundle!


    Deloris chose to feature the Cutest Cow bundle for her Artist of the Month projects. She did an incredible job showcasing this cute bundle! 

    First is an adorable 'barn' card. Who wouldn't love to receive this fun card? 

    Isn't that the best way to feature these cows!?  She cased Queen Bee Creations for this idea. I love the rooster in the window! 

    Measurements: 

    • Red card base 4 1/4" X 11" score at 5 1/2". Make a mark 1" inside the fold and 1" above & below the fold line on the edge. Score. 
    • White inside 4" X 5 1/4" – trim off upper corners to fit the fold
    • White strips to form the barn roof are 3/8" and the door are 1/4". 
    • Old Olive grass she cut into a wave shape and used her scissors to create grass

    Here's the inside view: 

    Next is a sunrise 'Rocker' card using Old Olive & Daffodil Delight. 

    The Deckled Circles are a must for these cards! See them here in our Online Store. 

    Here are her fun 3d projects: 

    For the cow tail candy wrap she used our Blueberry Bushel Glorious Gingham DSP cut with a Deckled circle die. She simply added a few score lines to the middle so it would stand up.

    The Udder Stick (chapstick) holder was cased from Cards by TLC and features Berry Burst Glorious Gingham DSP. 

    I'll share more of her cute projects tomorrow!

    As you can see with her projects, the Cutest Cow bundle is super cute!  The stamp set & punch will be sold in the new Annual Catalog coming out in May. It will not be available in a bundle at 10% off though; the items will be sold separately.

  • Latte Love Book Binding Z-fold with free project sheet


    I am in love with this fun fold!  I call it a 'Book-binding' Z fold card.  

    This one is made with the A Little Latte designer paper seen here.  It's part of our huge bunch of Online Exclusive products.

    The card starts out at 11" X 4 1/4" with two score lines (see the measurements in the free project sheet below). Then you add a second layer to the front flap to create this unique but easy fold.  

    I'm surprised this trendy designer paper hasn't sold out yet!  

    Below you can see both versions of this card we made at my March card clubs.  

    The coffee cups were fussy cut from the designer paper.  The stamps on the left are from the Latte Love bundle seen here.  The tag on front is from the Tailored Tags dies seen here.  I use these all of the time!  

    I created a free project sheet you can download or print. These project sheets are so handy to have in an idea binder or folder. Download March 24 Club A Little Latte book binding

    If you own this fun designer paper you might like my PDF tutorial for 5 more card designs on my Tutorial Shop here.
