Boughs of Holly Suite projects; with a special fun fold you’ll be amazed at!

I think everyone is loving the Boughs of Holly suite seen here; the paper is stunning and the Leaves of Holly bundle is incredible as well!  

These are the last swap cards from our Christmas swap with my Flowerbug's Team.  I hope you've enjoyed their amazing & creative projects. *Scroll back to see them all. 

Marilyn made this pretty card:

Her colors include Mossy Meadow & Cherry Cobbler with White.  She stamped a few spatters on the designer paper before texturing it with the Gingham embossing folder before adding the die-cut greeting and leaves.  This greeting die-cut with the attached holly leaves is so pretty & unique. 

Measurements: Card base 5 1/2" X 8 1/2", DSP is 4 1/2" X 3 1/4", the Cherry Cobbler layer is 4 3/4" X 3 1/2" 

Here's a photo of the entire Boughs of Holly suite:

Next up is an amazing card by Paula.  She made a vertical Pillar card.  I've never seen one before.

The way she attached the mini envelope across the front 'bridge' is so neat.  Here are the directions she shared with me:

The dimensions are:

• 8-1/2 x 5-1/2 cardstock in Evening Evergreen
• On 8-1/2 side score down 1/4, 1, 1-3/4, 2-1/2  6, 6-3/4, 7-1/2 and 8-1/4.
• Banish all score lines toward the center
• DSP strips are 5/8" X 5 1/4" and the center DSP is 1 3/4" X 5 1/4", the bridge piece across is 5/8" X 3 3/8"  

It folds flat to fit in a A2 size envelope.

Products used include the Mini Pocket Envelope die, the tag was Tailor Made tags and the Rectangular Postage Stamp punch for the greeting. She also added the Flat Jingle Bells on page 27 of the Holiday catalog and the Wintry 3D embossing folder for the texture on the pocket. 

The tag pulls out of the pocket for even more interest.

So creative and unique!

  January 12, 2021

  Lately I've been offering two different pre-cut card kits each month.  I'm finding so many great products to feature; I cannot help it!  And I like offering a variety of options for my customers.  

  Did you notice the Happy Thoughts stamp set in the new Spring catalog?  It's filled with beautiful greetings; something many of us cannot get enough of.  So I created a group of 8 fun fold cards around this set.  Look!

  I also decided to use the Happy Blooms designer paper; I love the colors & patterns so much.  This paper is free with any $50 online order from now through February 28th.  See it here. 

  Here are two unique cards in this kit.  Remember you get two of each in the kit; one to keep for ideas and one to send.

• January’s Card Kits to go; 1st is True Love black & white with pops of color!

  January 11, 2021

  I was so happy when I saw the True Love designer paper in the new Spring Catalog.  I absolutely LOVE black & white prints in our papers!  I find it's the most versatile to use since you can add ANY COLOR you want to it and Black and White makes it POP! 

  Save

  If you like to fussy cut or color you'll fall in love with this pretty paper. 

  Look at these pretty cards! And you can color the floral images with markers OR fussy cut them out to add beautiful detail to the cards.

  I created 5 cards; two of each design for a total of 10 cards. Three of the five designs are unique fun folds too. *see photo below

  You'll receive all pre-cut, punched & die-cut pieces, 1/2 package of True Love Designer paper (6" X 12"), black glittered ribbon, Black matte gems and a share of 2020-22 In Color enamel dots so you can finish these cards at home.

  I chose to use the Vine Design stamp set since it's full of a wide variety of greetings and the lovely vine and floral images too.  You can add on either the stamp set or bundle at an extra 10%!  It fits in the package and costs nothing extra in shipping costs. And if you do you can choose a free Sale-a-Bration choice also.

  I used Black, Real Red and Just Jade inks. Remember you'll stamp your own images.
