Beautiful swap cards with Holiday Catalog stamp sets


Today I'm sharing more of my Flowerbug Team card swaps featuring Holiday Catalog stamps or bundles.  

First up is a beautiful card made by Tracey featuring the Perched in a Tree bundle seen here.

Her colors are Soft Suede, Petal Pink and Mango Melody. The designer papers are Texture Chic and the Silver & Gold Sale-a-Bration DSP.  We stamped & sponged the Silver & gold DSP to add coordinating colors. 

The gold leaves are from the Chic dies cut from the Distressed Gold DSP.  The solid leaves are from the Aspen dies.  That pretty texture on the Soft Suede layer is the Twigs & Sprigs embossing folder seen here.  All contribute to making this card stunning! 

Measurements:

  • Card base 5 1/2" X 8 1/2"
  • Soft Suede 4" X 5 1/4"
  • DSP are both 3" X 4"

Next is a soft & pretty card Marilyn made.  She used the Splendid Thoughts bundle.

Her colors are Coastal Cabana with Soft Suede & White.  The Splendid Stems dies add a delicate natural touch.  

The White is textured with the Painted Texture embossing folder.  The corners on this piece are punched with the new Very Best Trio punch seen here.  The soft DSP is from the Splendid Day specialty paper seen here.  

Measurements:

  • Coastal Cabana is 5 1/2" X 8 1/2" scored at 2 1/8" & 4 1/4"
  • Soft Suede – 3 3/4" X 5"
  • White is 3 1/2" X 4 3/4"
  • DSP & Coastal Cabana layers are 2 3/4" X 3 1/4"

Lastly for today is a pretty card made by Paula.  She cased a card made by Colleen Magness.  It features the pretty Soft Seedlings stamp set. It's a Distinktive set which means you get multiple hues of color when stamping.  Although she did use a sponging technique to achieve her multiple colors.  

She inked the stamp in Crushed Curry first, then added Old Olive to the stem with a marker.  Then used a finger dauber to add pumpkin pie and cherry cobbler ink on stamp.  Huff & stamp!  

The leaf texture on her Vanilla layer is made with the Leaf Fall 3D folder seen here.  It's new!  

Measurements:

  • Crushed Curry card base 4 1/4" X 11"
  • Vanilla 5 1/8" X 3 7/8"
  • Cherry Cobbler 5 1/4" X 4"
  • Pumpkin Pie 5 3/8 X 4 1/8" 

Remember that if you're wanting any of the Holiday Catalog products it's smart to order in August so you earn free Sale-a-Bration choices!

I'll share the rest of our Team swaps soon.

  • Colorful Autumn Trees card with a baby wipe technique


    Fall is in the air here in North Dakota.  Look at this gorgeous & colorful autumn tree!  

    It’s made with the new Autumn Trees bundle seen here.  Here’s how I did the tree:

    1. I stamped the tree onto Crumb Cake card stock using Crumb Cake ink.
    2. Then die-cut it with the tree die from the bundle. 
    3. Next I inked up a baby wipe with fall colors of Garden Green, Crushed Curry, Pumpkin Pie and Cajun Craze.  I rolled it up and pressed it onto the tree die-cut repeatedly. 
    4. Lastly I used a Crumb Cake Blends marker to add more detail to the trunk.  

    I used the Birch Wood embossing folder on the Vanilla background and lightly blended Cajun Craze ink over it.  The greeting is from the More Messages bundle. 

    Thanks for stopping in today!

  • Stack, cut & shuffle card with Gathering Together DSP – free project sheet too!


    Here’s another beautiful autumn themed card I shared on last week’s Live video.  

    Have you ever made a triple stack, cut & shuffle card?  It’s a great way to make multiples of a card layout and use your designer paper.  Simply cut three different patterns of designer paper at 3 3/4″ X 5″.  Stack them together and cut all at the same time.  This way they’ll all fit together well once you shuffle them into 3 piles. What’s neat is that you don’t really have to measure your cuts! Watch the video below to see how it’s done.

    The designer paper here is the new Gathering Together seen here. It’s gorgeous with Champagne foil accents. This paper is part of our Online Exclusives.  To see all of these just released new items click here.  Or download & save the Download Online Exclusives flyer 

    My colors include Early Espresso, Crushed Curry and Cajun Craze.  The greeting and stamped die-cuts are from the Gathering Moments bundle seen here. The greeting die-cuts are from the Traditional Labels dies seen here. They’re my new favorite set of label dies!  

    I created a free project sheet for this card.  Click on the following link to print or download it.  Download Gathering Moments Stack & Shuffle card

    Below is the video tutorial for this card and a neat fun fold card.  I hope you try making these stack, cut & shuffle cards!
