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.  

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.

  • Right Behind You; so cute!


    I chose the Right Behind You stamp set for my Flowerbug's Team swap this month.  Here's my card:

    This set is adorable!  And it has such fun greetings to go with the tandem bicycle as well. Click here to see it. 

    Details:

    • I used the 'ground' image to create grass by stamping it numerous times.
    • I used the Basic Border dies seen here to sponge the clouds.  Get my tips on this in the video below or click here. 
    • I used a mask to add the puppy in the basket. 
    • The greeting die-cut is from the Messages die. 
    • I used Stampin' Blends to color in the images.
    • I added a Metallic pearl to the spokes in the bicycle. 
    • The sun is simply sponged in the corner with Daffodil Delight ink. 

    As you can see it's an easy fun fold card.  Simply add one extra score line to your normal A2 card.  Score the 5 1/2" X 8 1/2" Crushed Curry card at 2 1/8" and 4 1/4".  The Basic Gray is 3 7/8" X 5 1/8" and the White is 3 3/4" X 5".

    I added grass and flowers to the inside to pull it all together.  

    Click on the video below to watch me make this card; it's the first project on this FB Live replay.  *You can also see how I made the Pinwheel Tower cards in the photo below.

  • Pinwheel Tower fun fold cards are easy but a sure WOW!


    I shared this super fun card on Tuesday's FB Live video.  The video is shown below.  Or click here to watch on my FB page.  Don't forget to follow me so you are notified when I go live. 

    I used the Sweet Symmetry designer paper and the In  Symmetry stamp set.  Colors are Night of Navy, Just Jade, Calypso Coral, Bumblebee and Flirty Flamingo.  I also used Holiday rhinestones for the bling. 

    This has to be one of the easiest fun fold cards I've made that's also totally unique. And it uses an exact 5 1/2" X 8 1/2" piece of card stock. On each panel you can add a perfect layer (2 1/2" X 4") or have fun adding various pieces of CS or DSP and greetings or stamped images.  

    Here are the measurements for you: 

    Here's the video for you; click on the photo below.

  • Daisy Garden with Picture This dies


    Yesterday I shared a card featuring the Daisy Garden stamp set and today it's a totally different type of card.  

    The colors are Fresh Freesia, Black & White.  The daisy stamp peeks out from behind the window die cut circles made with the Picture This dies on a 4" X 5 1/4" piece of Black CS.  Can you see the stitches?

    These dies include both a large set of circles and another with three rectangles.  You can use the windows like shown above or the die cut circles or rectangles which I used here for the greeting.  

    Check out the Picture This dies here. 

    And here is another way to use these dies; with Designer Paper behind the window.  It's the gorgeous Expressions in Ink Specialty Designer Paper seen here; it was unavailable for almost a month.  And it was in stock for a week but it's unavailable again now until early August.  It's so popular!
