Spring Catalog – Flowerbugs Inkspot

Check out these Team Swaps!

March 24, 2026

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.

Pretty Detailed Dogwood card swaps

January 18, 2024

Today I'm sharing a few swaps I received featuring the new Detailed Dogwood stamp set – one of the choices in the 2024 Sale-a-Bration catalog.

Trayce Bauer made this stunning card using Bubble Bath, Granny Apple Green and Mossy Meadow.

She fussy cut the flowers out and added them to the Bubble Bath layer that has been embossed using the Softly Sophisticated embossing folder – also from our Sale-a-Bration selection.

I love how she added the dotted image to create a background on both the white layer and the greeting! The greeting die is from the Thoughtful Expressions dies.

Below is a photo of the stamp set. See it here online.

It's free with a $100 purchase from Stampin' Up! through February 29th when Sale-a-Bration ends.

Next is a gorgeous card made by Angie Leach.

She used a beautiful set of neutral colors – Pebbled Path, Wild Wheat, Mossy Meadow and Copper Clay. The large white die is from the Postage dies. Wow!

I love the layout. Adding a few strips below your main focal point adds balance and interest and ties the colors together too.

~~~

This last card is also a swap I received but I cannot give credit to the creator as there wasn't a name on it.

Her colors of Black, Real Red and White are stunning! Note the simple stamped background on the large White layer, mimicking the main floral image. That dragonfly is such a neat image. It does not coordinate with our Dragonfly punch unfortunately.

2 card ideas with Cradled in Love – a sweet set that’s free during Sale-a-Bration

January 17, 2024

One of the free stamp set choices in the Sale-a-Bration catalog is the Cradled in Love set. A sweet group of stamps perfect for baby cards. See this stamp set here.

Here's a quick card I created for my Open House boards:

My colors include Flirty Flamingo, White & Smoky Slate. That large die-cut is from our new Perennial Postage dies seen here.

I paired it with the new Most Adored specialty designer paper – another free option during Sale-a-Bration this year. I added a 2" wide strip under the main element diagonally.

Both the stamp set and paper are available through February or while supplies last. See this pretty paper here. It's filled with gold foil designs on one side and Flirty Flamingo & Real Red on the other.

This photo does not show it well at all. The colors are rich and gorgeous!

Below is a super cute swap card I received from my friend Amy Storrie.

She used the Lighter Than Air designer paper, Highland Heather, Lemon Lolly, Gray and White. That adorable scalloped border from the Basic Borders dies adds so much! I just love it!

Softly Sophisticated fun-fold card with free project sheet to save & download

January 16, 2024

Here's the other fun fold card I shared on last week's Live video. See the other one here.

I chose to feature the new Softly Sophisticated bundle from our 2024 Sale-a-Bration catalog.

See this pretty bundle here. Both the stamp set & embossing folder are free with any $100 purchase through February.

It might not look like a fun fold card, but the front main layers open instead of the entire card like this:

The colors include Bubble Bath, White and Lost Lagoon. During my video I shared another one with Boho Blue instead. It all depends on which sheet of the beautiful Flight & Airy designer paper you choose!

Did you wonder which dies I used on the designer paper and the greeting label? They're the Thoughtful Expressions dies – one of my new favorites. See them here.

See this pretty Flight & Airy designer paper here. It's free with any $50 purchase through February; while supplies last. Don't delay if you want it! I suspect this will be one of the firsts to sell out….

I love Sale-a-Bration where you can earn free products! See it all here.

Below is the video you can watch to see this card and another special fun fold card. Don't forget to follow me on YouTube!
