Beautiful Plaid card featuring the Grow with Love bundle


I shared this pretty card on a recent video.  I made it for our Team swap which had a plaid theme. 

It features the Grow with Love bundle seen here.  My colors include Basic Beige, Old Olive and Lost Lagoon – taken from the pretty Timeless Plaid layer. 

The basil and stamped frame are all done with the Grow with Love dies.  The greeting is from the Mixed Label dies. I did sponge the edges and the leaves with Lost Lagoon ink.  The herb images in this set are so pretty and have Stampin' Up!'s distinktive style which shows off multiple hues with one inking.  The coordinating dies cut off the herb names; a great option if you do not want to include them.  

The pretty embossing folder is called Dashing Designs and can be seen here. I'm so sad it's retiring!  This textured piece is made from our 2-toned Olive 12 X 12" card stock. When embossing this white core paper the texture reveals the white core just enough to enhance the texture.  I could have sanded it to reveal even more texture but I did not.  

I created a free project sheet for this pretty card.  Click on the following link to print or download it.  Download Grow with Love Plaid card 


And here's the video tutorial for this card and a super-duper fun fold card:

  • Thoughtful Blooms with the Small Bloom punch


    Here are a few more swap cards made by my Flowerbug's Team this month. I just love seeing what my gals create for our swaps!

    The Thoughtful Blooms stamp set coordinates with the Small Blooms punch.  See them here and here: 

    Jacki made this beautiful card.  I love the many layers and details here. And the colors are fresh and unique – Soft Suede, Mint Macaron, Bermuda Bay and White.  She used the new Label Me Fancy punch, the Starburst punch, Leaf punch and the Painted Label dies for the swirl.  The greeting is from the Peaceful Moments set. That gorgeous texture is from the Parisian Flourish embossing folder seen here. 

    Candace made this unique card below: 

    Her colors are Gorgeous Grape, Balmy Blue and Granny Apple Green.  Isn't this layout fun?!  the technique is called Triple Stamping.  You place your White layers in position as shown without the Grape layers in between and stamp on the three pieces all at once.  Then add the Grape layers and adhere to your main card.  Super easy and fun too. 

    She added a pretty greeting in Purple Posy with the Stitched So Sweetly dies (my favorite!) and the punched flowers from the Small Bloom punch. 

    Measurements:

    • Grape – 5 1/2" X 8 1/2", 4 1/4" X 3 1/4" and 3 1/4" X 2 1/4"
    • White – 4" X 5 1/4", 4" X 3" and 3" X 2"

  • Lovely Lily Pad with Lily Pad dies to match!


    Waterlilies are so trendy now and these reversible Lovely Lily Pad stamps in the 2020 Sale-a-Bration catalog are beautiful! 

    I'm sharing more of my Team swaps from our meeting earlier this month.  Many of my team choose to join in our monthly swaps.  Our swaps are optional and work like this: design one card and make one for everyone in the swap. If there are 12 people in the swap you make 12 of the same cards.  Then send or bring them to me and I sort them out and return them to everyone participating.  It's so fun to get all different cards back when you only had to create one!

    First is Mary's pretty card: 

    She used the Stitched Rectangle dies on three of her layers here!  Her colors are Bermuda Bay, Grapefruit Grove and Old Olive.  A little bit of Rococo Rose and Coastal Cabana too.  The Lily Impressions designer paper has tons of pretty colors in it.  

    Roxann made this next card. She also used a Bermuda Bay card base but focused on Melon Mambo and Granny Apple Green as her colors. 

    It truly looks like water is reflecting the flowers on this pretty Lily Impressions designer paper.  This paper is a free choice with any $50 order right now. See them here. 

    Her greeting is from the Sending you Thoughts set; also a free choice during our Sale-a-Bration promotion. 

    Bobby created this pretty card below.   It also reminds me of a water garden with lilies in it.

    Her colors are Pretty Peacock, Pool Party and Grapefruit Grove.  Isn't that border die beautiful?  I also like that peek of a vellum lily behind the largest lily.  I have a bunch of talented ladies on my Team!  

    If you've considered joining Stampin' Up! as a Demonstrator I'd love to have you in my Flowerbug's group.  Read about that opportunity here.

  • Happy Birthday to You SAB set swaps


    Two more pretty card swaps from my Flowerbug's Team today.  These two cards are similar in layout but still so different.

    This Happy Birthday to You stamp set (seen here) is free with any $50 order during Sale-a-Bration.  And now there is a set of dies to match!  Click on the photo below to see those. My customers love it when there are dies to match; no fussy cutting!

     

    First is Deloris's card in Balmy Blue and Daffodil Delight.  

    She used the Stitched So Sweetly dies for her White layer and the greeting.  The cake and the flowers are cut out with the Birthday Dies seen above.  She colored the images with Blends markers.  The texture is from the Parisian Flourish embossing folder. 

    Next is Karen's card; she used Pacific Point with Daffodil Delight and Silver foil  

    Her stamped cake and the Silver cake stand are cut out with the Birthday dies.  She textured her Pacific Point layer with the Coastal Weave embossing folder. 

    Like I said; these two cards are similar but not! 

    This pretty stamp set fits just about any celebration that involves cake; which in our family is just about everything!
