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.

Use your scraps with the Double Twisted Ribbon technique; live class tonight!

October 24, 2022
If you like using up those paper scraps I have a fun technique to share. It's called the Double Twisted Ribbon technique.

I'll be demonstrating it on tonight's Stamp with Me Live on Facebook. It's at 7:30 pm Central time on the last Monday of the month and it's a free class! See the replay here

I chose to use the Lights Aglow specialty designer paper seen here for my card samples. It's so pretty with the gold foil accents and fine patterns.

Tips:
- You'll need 6 strips of two different patterns; you can also use card stock for them. I cut them into 1/2" X 4" strips.
- The strips are adhered to a White piece measuring 2 1/2" X 5 1/4". This is scored every 1" from the top down. These score lines help you when adhering your strips.
- Once your strips are adhered you will add it to a layer measuring 2 3/4" X 5 1/2". I recommend you use a color that coordinates with a color in your DSP.
For this card I chose to use the Holly Berry dies for the leaves & berries. The greeting die-cut is from the All That dies.

My card base is Evening Evergreen. The greeting is from the upcoming Framed & Festive stamp set. It's new and available to Demonstrators in October, but will be out for customers in November.

For this next card I stamped the greeting (also from the Framed & Festive stamp set) onto a die-cut circle from the Stylish Shapes dies.

That pretty gold leaf die-cut is from the upcoming Framed Floret dies – also coming out in November for customers. I added a few Festive Pearls for berries.

Triple Accordion fun fold card with Lights Aglow DSP; easy but WOW!

October 21, 2022
I love this unique fun fold card; I'm calling it a triple accordion card. I demonstrated it on this week's FB Live video. See it here on my YouTube channel.

I featured the Lights Aglow specialty designer paper seen here. It's so beautiful in Cherry Cobbler, Soft Succulent, Black, Evening Evergreen and pretty gold foil accents. Luckily it's back in stock right now.

Here's what the card looks like folded flat. It shows off multiple sheets of the designer paper and fits in a standard A2 envelope, measuring 5 1/2" X 4 1/4".

I used a few other products here; especially gold themed items.

Gold foil and Gold Distressed paper, Elegant Metallic trim, Gold embossing powder & Festive Pearls. I also used the Twinkling Lights and Layering Circle dies and the Brightest Glow stamp set.

For variety I added some Evening Evergreen to the next card.

Measurements:
- Cherry Cobbler card base 4 ¼” X 11” scored at 2 ½”, 3 ¾”, 6 ¾” & 8 ¼”
- DSP 2 pieces at 4” X 4”, the center Cherry square is 3". Vanilla 2 ½” X 4”
Below you can see the gold tree & dotted die-cut snowflakes & garland from the Twinkling Lights dies here. Again, the greetings are all from the Brightest Glow stamp set seen here.

The greeting die-cut for the 'joy' is from the Potted Succulents dies; a few loops of gold cord are added underneath it.

Which one do you prefer; the card with some Evergreen or the one all Cherry Cobbler?

Look what you can do with the Charming Landscapes embossing folders

October 20, 2022

I shared a fun way to use the Charming Landscapes embossing folders in this week's FB Live video. Look!

After I textured White card stock with the folders I trimmed the excess off and adhered it over a piece of Lights Aglow designer paper and then onto my White card base. So simple with just a little bit of fussy cutting. See the Charming Landscapes embossing duo here.

The greeting is from the Brightest Glow stamp set, heat embossed with Gold embossing powder. A few loops of gold cording is added to the back.

Here's another version; a bit more fussy cutting on this one though!

This one did take more time to trim…. I added light So Saffron Blends marker and Wink of Stella to the little village houses.

What do you think? I love the elegance of the Black, White & Gold colors.

Below is the video where I show these cards and a special fun fold card too. All made with the beautiful Lights Aglow specialty designer paper seen here.

There are still a few spots left in my Lights Aglow Christmas card kit to go. Click here to see it. Or get the PDF tutorial here.
