Beautiful Team Swaps; featuring a tree theme

Last weekend we held our monthly Flowerbug's Team meeting and swap.  I can't wait to share all of the cards with you!  Our theme was to use leaves, trees or water on a card and each and every one is amazing!!! I'll share a few each day this week.  

First is a card made by Annette featuring the Beauty of the Earth designer paper.  

April Annette Beauty of the Earth Save

The clean and simple design really shows off this beautiful designer paper – Beauty of the Earth.  It is on the retiring list right now; see it here.  The bottom strip of a line of trees is one of the papers in this pack.  What a perfect way to show it off and how well it coordinates with another sheet she used for her large circle.  The sentiment is from 'In the Moment' stamp set.  This was cased from Rachael Tessman.

Next is a card created by Marilyn. She also used the pretty Beauty of the Earth designer paper.

The card stock is Night of Navy and she used Old Olive accents with the Bough Punch.  The dies are the Stitched So Sweetly which are on the retiring list and one I'm soooo sad to see going away!  See it here.  

Her card is a fun fold – Card base is 5 1/2" X 8 1/2" scored at 2 1/8" & 4 1/4" on the 8 1/2" side.  The DSP is1 7/8" X 5 1/4"

Next is a pretty card made by Tracey.  She is featuring the Beauty of Friendship bundle seen here.

Her main image is stamped on our 12 X 12" Linen paper seen here.  After stamping her tree and cloud she colored the background with Blends markers!  Who knew you could stamp & color on it so beautifully!?  

She adhered the linen (since it's adhesive-backed) to her paper first.  Then used the Take Your Pick tool to pull away some of the threads on the sides.  Isn't this amazing!

I'll share more of our Flowerbug's incredible swap cards tomorrow.

  • Use your scraps with the Double Twisted Ribbon technique; live class tonight!

    If you like using up those paper scraps I have a fun technique to share.  It's called the Double Twisted Ribbon technique. 

    I'll be demonstrating it on tonight's Stamp with Me Live on Facebook.  It's at 7:30 pm Central time on the last Monday of the month and it's a free class!  See the replay here

    Lights Aglow Twisted Ribbon technique Save

    I chose to use the Lights Aglow specialty designer paper seen here for my card samples.  It's so pretty with the gold foil accents and fine patterns.  

    Tips:

    • You'll need 6 strips of two different patterns; you can also use card stock for them.  I cut them into 1/2" X 4" strips.  
    • The strips are adhered to a White piece measuring 2 1/2" X 5 1/4".  This is scored every 1" from the top down.  These score lines help you when adhering your strips. 
    • Once your strips are adhered you will add it to a layer measuring 2 3/4" X 5 1/2".  I recommend you use a color that coordinates with a color in your DSP.  

    For this card I chose to use the Holly Berry dies for the leaves & berries.  The greeting die-cut is from the All That dies.

    My card base is Evening Evergreen.  The greeting is from the upcoming Framed & Festive stamp set.  It's new and available to Demonstrators in October, but will be out for customers in November.  

    For this next card I stamped the greeting (also from the Framed & Festive stamp set) onto a die-cut circle from the Stylish Shapes dies.

    That pretty gold leaf die-cut is from the upcoming Framed Floret dies – also coming out in November for customers.  I added a few Festive Pearls for berries.

  • Triple Accordion fun fold card with Lights Aglow DSP; easy but WOW!

    I love this unique fun fold card; I'm calling it a triple accordion card.  I demonstrated it on this week's FB Live video.  See it here on my YouTube channel.

    I featured the Lights Aglow specialty designer paper seen here.  It's so beautiful in Cherry Cobbler, Soft Succulent, Black, Evening Evergreen and pretty gold foil accents. Luckily it's back in stock right now. 

    LIGHTS AGLOW 6" X 6" (15.2 X 15.2 CM) SPECIALTY DESIGNER SERIES PAPER Save
     

    Here's what the card looks like folded flat.  It shows off multiple sheets of the designer paper and fits in a standard A2 envelope, measuring 5 1/2" X 4 1/4".

    I used a few other products here; especially gold themed items. 

    Gold foil and Gold Distressed paper, Elegant Metallic trim, Gold embossing powder & Festive Pearls.  I also used the Twinkling Lights and Layering Circle dies and the Brightest Glow stamp set.

    For variety I added some Evening Evergreen to the next card.

    Measurements: 

    • Cherry Cobbler card base 4 ¼” X 11” scored at 2 ½”, 3 ¾”, 6 ¾” & 8 ¼”
    • DSP 2 pieces at 4” X 4”, the center Cherry square is 3". Vanilla 2 ½” X 4”

    Below you can see the gold tree & dotted die-cut snowflakes & garland from the Twinkling Lights dies here.  Again, the greetings are all from the Brightest Glow stamp set seen here. 

    The greeting die-cut for the 'joy' is from the Potted Succulents dies; a few loops of gold cord are added underneath it.

  • Look what you can do with the Charming Landscapes embossing folders

    I shared a fun way to use the Charming Landscapes embossing folders in this week's FB Live video.  Look! 

    Charming Landscapes Save

    After I textured White card stock with the folders I trimmed the excess off and adhered it over a piece of Lights Aglow designer paper and then onto my White card base.  So simple with just a little bit of fussy cutting.  See the Charming Landscapes embossing duo here. 

    CHARMING LANDSCAPES EMBOSSING FOLDERS Save

    The greeting is from the Brightest Glow stamp set, heat embossed with Gold embossing powder.  A few loops of gold cording is added to the back.  

    Here's another version; a bit more fussy cutting on this one though! 

    Charming Landscapes Save

    This one did take more time to trim….  I added light So Saffron Blends marker and Wink of Stella to the little village houses.

    What do you think?  I love the elegance of the Black, White & Gold colors.

    Below is the video where I show these cards and a special fun fold card too.  All made with the beautiful Lights Aglow specialty designer paper seen here.
