Check out these Team Swaps!

The swap theme for my Flowerbug’s in March was to use our favorite Online Exclusive product. I’ll be sharing them today and Wednesday this week.

First is a pretty card made by Jacki featuring the Sunflower 3D embossing folder seen here. It’s currently in low inventory; they sure have trouble keeping these in stock!

She used White with Crumb Cake for a super clean look. The die-cut shape on the textured Sunflower layer is from the Branching Out dies seen here. One of my absolute favorite sets of dies I consider a ‘must have!’

I also love how she added the wrap of Linen Thread around the greeting layer; simple but so effective!

Her sister Jonna made this next card. Did they decide to both use the Sunflower 3D folder?!

Her card is all Vanilla. Another clean & simple card; both are so elegant! I find when you use mostly one neutral color the card feels quite sophisticated. The greetings on both cards are from the recently retired Branching Out stamp set.

Next is a pretty card from Kim.

She used the pretty Floral Charm designer paper here with Early Espresso, Bubble Bath & Pecan Pie card stock. This pretty DSP will be on the retiring list in the next week or so. The beautiful leaf die-cut is from the Nature’s Symphony dies seen here. They are out of stock currently but they’ll be back! The greeting punch is our Heartfelt Hexagon punch seen here. I love this punch!

Tomorrow I’ll share lots more of the fabulous swap cards made by my Team.

• A special Trusty Tools Double-box fun fold card – free project sheet & video tutorial

  February 12, 2024

  ---

  We made this fabulous men's fun-fold card at my January Card Clubs; I also shared it on last week's Live video too.  

  

   

  It features Gray Granite, Crushed Curry, Poppy Parade & White plus a bit of our Holographic specialty paper for the wrench die-cut.  

  This double box fun fold card can be positioned two ways – horizontal like this or vertical where the left box is the bottom. 

  A few details:

  • All 3 die-cuts on the front are from the Trusty Tools bundle & die set.
  • The neat textured Gray Granite layer is Metal Place 3D embossing folder. 
  • The tool designer paper is the Trusty Toolbox 12" DSP – seen here.  It's free during Sale-a-Bration with any $50 purchase.  I'm actually surprised they haven't run out of it yet!!

  If you order the Trusty Tools bundle you can earn the coordinating Trusty Toolbox designer paper FREE! It's $54.75 for the bundle.

  

  For greetings I also used the Throughout the Year stamp set for additional options. See it here.  

  

  I've used this stamp set so often!  It seems to have just what I need and I LOVE the fonts!

• Pretty cards in the Poetic Expressions card kit to go or PDF tutorial

  February 8, 2024

  ---

  I chose to feature the Poetic Expressions designer paper for my February card kit to go because of it's soft & pretty patterns. 

  

  Just beautiful & fresh color combos & layouts here. There are 5 sets of cards for a total of 10 in this kit to go; all featuring the pretty Poetic Expressions designer paper. A few are fancy fold layouts. 

  This kit includes the following:

  You will use a paper trimmer to cut your new designer paper, stamp your greetings and assemble! You'll enjoy stress free crafting with my kits to go and have leftover product & card ideas to make more! 

  The 10 cards & extra product is $28 plus shipping; see it here.  The PDF tutorial is $15 and can be seen here. 

  I used the Thoughtful Expressions, Filled with Happiness & Wild Fern stamp sets but you can substitute any greetings you already own. However if you'd like the Thoughtful Expressions bundle you can add it on with an extra 10% off and earn a free Sale-a-Bration choice!  *or add on any product valued over $30 and receive a free SAB choice.
