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.

• 3 ways to use the Layered Floral on one card!

  February 7, 2024

  ---

  I shared this pretty textured card on last week's FB live video: 

  

  The textured card stock is Fresh Freesia.  I used a Blending Brush with Blackberry Bliss ink to highlight the gorgeous texture. The Layered Floral 3D embossing folder is amazing; it has super deep texture! 

  I made a second card during the video with another rich color combination of Night of Navy with Boho Blue. Note the different ways I added vellum to these two cards. 

  Also note the pretty texture added to the envelope flap; why don't we do this more often!? 

  

  Here are the 3 ways I featured this pretty Layered Floral 3D embossing folder:

  1. Textured, then added ink with a Blending Brush.
  2. I textured the envelope flap and add a very light ink, again with a Blending Brush.
  3. Cut out a large flower from a separate piece of textured card stock; and I punched a smaller flower using the Petal Park Builder punch – yes it coordinates!!

  

  Products used here:

  • Layered Floral 3D embossing folder; seen here
  • Deckled Circle dies seen here
  • Vellum card stock
  • Cheerful Daisy dies
  • Heartfelt Hellos stamp set from Sale-a-Bration catalog seen here; free with a $50 order

  Which is your favorite?

  I love these gorgeous cards so much!  They have lots of details & elements but they're still quick to create!

  

  This card kit includes 12 cards; you'll make 4 each of 3 card designs. It's based on the Lovely Lavender Paper Pumpkin refill kit but I've added an extra 4 cards, changed them up and added on extra product to jazz them up.

  The kit includes the following:

  • 12 card bases, greeting labels & die-cut elements for the 12 cards
  • a share of Fine Shimmer Purple gems
  • a share of Paper Butterfly Accents
  • 12 envelopes
  • The PDF tutorial with photos & step by step directions

  This kit does not include stamps or inks. You'll need greetings, purple ink & adhesives to complete the cards. I used the Charming Sentiments set. 

  Click here to reserve your kit for $28 plus shipping. 

  I have a limited supply of these kits; do not wait long to reserve yours!  The kits will be mailed out at the end of February. The PDF tutorial will be sent via email immediately after payment. Check your junk folder. 

  I have 6 other pre-cut card kits & 1 scrapbook kit available in my shop right now.  Save on shipping and order more than one!
