Bewitching Bundle for my Artist of the Month series

August 23, 2022

I'm excited to share these incredible projects made by Annette. She is our Artist of the Month as part of my Flowerbug's Team. Each month we have a featured artist that showcases a stamp set or bundle. For creating the projects they get to keep their new bundle as a gift.

She chose to use the Bewitching Bundle from the 2022 Holiday Catalog. See it here.

First up today is an eye catching card featuring the Gingham Cottage designer paper.

Save

She used Pumpkin Pie blends markers to color her hat and added a stamped spider and Black hat band. The stitched circle die-cuts are from the Stylish Shapes dies. Offsetting them adds a playful look to the card.

Next is a super cute coordinating candy treat box:

She found the box pattern from Cathryn Themann. It's about 5" X 3" in size and fits a row of Tootsie Rolls nicely.

Save

She used the same Cottage Gingham designer paper as she did on the card above. Notice that cute Black & Pumpkin gingham ribbon? She colored it with a Pumpkin Pie blends marker! Perfect!

The circle and banner die-cuts are from the Stylish Frames dies seen here. They're my 'go to' set of dies lately!

Save

She added the perfect finish to her hat band; the Black & Pumpkin glitter washi tape.

Come back for more fantastic projects featuring the Bewitching Bundle tomorrow!

Colorful Sunflowers the easy way!

June 23, 2020
Marilyn made this pretty card with the Celebrate Sunflowers stamp set (seen here) for one of our latest Flowerbug's Team swaps. I believe she found the idea on Pinterest. I love how it features 4 of our new In Colors!

Save

The card base is Bumblebee. She added Black card stock and ink to pull the colors together. Here is a tip: stamp the sunflower on 4 different colored squares and then cut them into smaller squares. You'll get enough stamped pieces for 4 cards!

Measurements:
- Bumblebee card base 5 1/2" X 8 1/2"
- White – 5 1/4" X 4"
- Black 3 3/4" square
- Just Jade, Magenta Madness, Cinnamon Cider and Bumblee – 3 1/2" squares for stamping. Then cut into 1 3/4" squares to puzzle piece on each card.

Save

For the card above I used the Flowers for Every Season designer paper and the Tasteful Labels dies. There are two separate pieces of Misty Moonlight and White CS below the DSP panel. The greeting is from the Lovely You stamp set.

Save

I used the Lovely You stamp set in Magenta Madness and Just Jade. That pretty texture is the Dainty Diamonds embossing folder. The window is made with the Label Me Lovely punch seen here.

Save

I had to use my new favorite stamp set Forever Fern for this window card. I stamped the same leaf image repeatedly in Misty Moonlight, Cinnamon Cider and Crumb Cake. Love blues and browns together! The circle is a 2" punch and the pretty label die is the Tasteful Labels again. My favorite set of label dies now!

- Card base 5 1/2" X 8 1/2"
  Main window layer 3 1/2" X 4 3/4"
  Layered piece 3 3/4" X 5" (the Magenta card has a tighter layer; 3 5/8" X 4 7/8")

Control Freaks New Catalog Blog Hop

June 19, 2020

It's time for our monthly Freak's blog hop!! Our focus today is the new Annual Catalog. We have lots of amazing projects to share with you using brand new products.

You may have arrived from Tami's blog; I'm sure you loved her projects! Or maybe you just started here. To see all 12 posts be sure to click on the icon at the bottom of each post.

It's been so fun to play with exciting new products from the 2020 Annual Catalog! Are you ready for some glitz & shine?

Save

I chose to play with the Forever Gold Laser-cut Specialty Paper today. It's part of the Forever Greenery suite of products. You can see it best on page 152 of your annual catalog. It has 6 sheets; 3 each of 2 single sided designs. One side is gold and the other is white which you can color, spritz or sponge. I chose to use the gold sides for my projects here.

You can see the details & measurements for each one under the photo.

I chose to use jewel toned card stock for each card; I think it looks rich & regal with these colors. The card above is Blackberry Bliss with Very Vanilla. The pretty golden leafy medallion is all one piece; just punched out from the pack. I added a 1" X 4 1/4" strip of Vanilla under it and a stamped die cut above with a few metallic pearls. The stamped image is from Dandelion Wishes and the die is from the Stitched So Sweetly dies.

Save

This card is Shaded Spruce with Vanilla. It's hard to see but the large 4" X 5 1/4" vanilla is textured with our Tasteful Textile embossing folder. The greeting is stamped on a die from Tasteful Labels using the Heart to Heart stamp set.

Once I had these pieces adhered I could add the laser cut piece on top. I added a bit of liquid multipurpose adhesive to the edges and a few leaves and it's done!

The laser cut card front pops out so easily from the rest in the sheet. No fussy cutting or die-cutting with these!

Save

This is probably my favorite one of the three. This laser-cut piece is delicate and leafy; it leaves a perfect area for a greeting in the stitched center. The card is Night of Navy with a 2" strip of the World of Good designer paper across the middle.

I stamped the 'Always' greeting (Field of Flowers set) on a 1 1/2" X 2 1/4" piece of Very Vanilla card stock and sponged the edge with Misty Moonlight ink. The 'In My Heart' greeting is embossed with Gold embossing powder on Misty Moonlight card stock and punched out with the Classic Label punch.

Did you spy the cute little flowers on this card? They're from the new Confetti Flowers Border punch. Each one has a Metallic pearl on it.

Save

I hope you enjoyed seeing these pretty cards with the beautiful Forever Gold Laser-cut Specialty Paper. If you like shine and glitz you'll love it!
