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.

Forever Forest – beautiful mountains & trees

September 11, 2023

I created this card for an online swap I'd joined last month. It shows off the gorgeous mountain dies in the Forever Forest bundle.

I knew I had to get this bundle with the many trees, that gorgeous mountain die and the other options. It's a fabulous scene builder set! See the bundle here.

I used Shaded Spruce ink to stamp the trio of trees image, adding a second image without reinking. Then I added 5 die-cut trees from Shaded Spruce card stock over the stamped trees.

I wanted to create a soft sky above the trees so I lightly added Balmy Blue ink with a Blending Brush. I then inked the 'cloud' image in the same Balmy Blue, stamped off once and stamped in the sky.

The 'Winter Wishes' is from the Magical Meadow stamp set seen here.

I die-cut two mountains in White for each card, adding them in different positions on the bottom of the stamped White layer. After I added them I trimmed off the excess on the sides before adhering the layer to the card base.

What do you think?
