This card might look like it’s difficult but it’s as simple as trimming off one half of the card front at a diagonal and flipping it over. Yup; that’s it! Watch my video below to see how it’s done.
My colors include Secret Sea, Hydrangea Hue (new in color), White and Crumb Cake. The largest circle is from the Spotlight on Nature dies seen here. The small White circle is from Stylish Shapes dies.
We tried this layout in both landscape & vertical position. Which do you prefer?

Pretty Window card
Later today the Retired List will be out for the 2019 Annual Catalog! Items will be available while supplies last. Rococo Rose card stock is already sold out. Stay tuned; I'll post it as soon as it's out! Or click here after 2 pm Central Time.
I created this card for a Flowerbug's Team swap this month. The theme was to make a 'Window' card.
My colors are Balmy Blue, Black & White here. That pretty flower is fussy cut from the True Love Designer Series paper seen here and colored with Balmy Blue Blends. It's my very favorite paper!
I textured the Balmy Blue CS before I die-cut the window; cutting them both at the same time.

Has this cute stamp set caught your eye? It's the Million Dollar stamp set for April Lopez. It's so adorable and a blast to color too.
Audrey, on my Flowerbug's Team is an expert at coloring and she gave me a few samples made with this set. *All I had to do was layer it and create a finished card with her beautiful colored image! Love that!
I used Sahara Sand as my card base and a few 1/4" strips of Black & White. The oval greeting with a Resin Heart finished it off!
3 Fun Projects & Video with the Circle Celebration stamp set
I tried not to order the Circle Celebration stamp set but it kept calling out 'Order me!' So I caved….and am so glad I did! The images seem like they're almost 'retro' style which I love. I do enjoy creating my own stamped background and these are perfect for that.
Today I'm focusing on the cards on the right. I made them with the Bokeh technique. It's so fun and almost 3D in appearance.
You start out with a sponged background. I used our new Blending Brushes that are awesome! They are currently out of stocks but should be back at the end of March.
Randomly sponge ink colors onto our Basic White CS. Choose colors that somewhat coordinate if possible. this can be difficult for some who struggle with color combos. I choose colors that when mixed do not make mud. How do I know which colors don't mix? Trial and error of course! Here I used Night of Navy, Bermuda Bay and Gorgeous Grape. Aren't these colors gorgeous together?!!!
*Another combo I might pick are yellows, oranges & reds. Or greens & blues!
Once you're done you add sponged circles using White Craft ink. I made my own stencils by punching circles out of card stock. I share tips on using and re-inking our White Craft ink in the video below.
The greeting is from the Best Year stamp set in the Annual Catalog and the butterflies AND white dotted die-cut 'holes' are from the new Brilliant Wings bundle seen here.
Here is the video; I hope you watch it to see how to make these fun projects!
