Blessings of Home card ideas; beautiful layouts

This week I'm sharing Monochromatic cards made by my Flowerbug's Team members.  It was our swap theme this month.  

It was a challenge for some but their cards were incredible as usual! Both cards today feature the Blessings of Home bundle; seen here.

This first card was created by Marilyn.  Her colors include Misty Moonlight, Night of Navy & White.  

Save

She used the large flower image to create a background using Misty Moonlight ink for a pretty tone on tone look.  She stamped the flower again on a piece of White CS and used the dies to cut it out. You cannot see in the photo but she added Wink of Stella to the flower.  

It's adhered over a pretty Encircled in Beauty Navy die-cut. 

Save

This next card was created by Tracey using the same Blessings of Home bundle.  

She used 3 different designer papers here – Heart & Home, Hand-Penned & the In Color 6 X 6" prints. I love how our colors & products coordinate so effortlessly.  Our color coordination is what brought me to Stampin' Up! and keeps me happy to stay. 

Save

Details:

• She stamped her flower image in Basic Gray ink and colored it in with Blends markers. It's fussy cut with the coordinating die-cut. 
• She heat embossed her greeting with White embossing powder onto Designer Paper.  What a gorgeous card and a neat layout. 
• The White CS behind the flower is textured with our new Gingham embossing folder seen here

  The leaves are from the Thankful Garden dies; the embossing folder is Exposed Brick. What a fabulous card!
