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.

• 2nd set of Incredible In Color card swaps by the Flowerbugs

  June 16, 2022

  ---

  Yesterday I shared the first set of In Color card swaps by my Flowerbug's Team and today I'm sharing more. 

  The first card is a fun fold card made by Karen A.  This is such an easy fold as it's just adding one score line to your standard card.

  

  She chose to use the Nothing's Better Than stamp set. Her colors include Sweet Sorbet & Parakeet Party with a bit of Early Espresso & Crumb Cake for the greeting & cookies.

  For your card base of 5 1/2" X 8 1/2" score at 1 1/4" and 4 1/4".  The Designer paper is from the In Color prints pack and measure 2 3/4" and 1" X 5 1/4" tall on both the front and inside of the card.  The inside White is 2 3/4" X 5 1/4". 

  Her front greeting elements include the new Decorative Circle punch seen here and the stitched circle die-cut from the Stylish Shapes dies. 

  

  Next up – Annette used the same stamp set; 'Nothing's Better Than'. It coordinates with the Love you More Than dies.  Her colors include Sweet Sorbet and Black with just a bit of Parakeet Party, Tahitian Tide & Orchid Oasis for her coloring.  

  She textured her Sweet Sorbet designer paper with the Timeworn Type embossing folder.  

  

  The tag dies are the Tailor Made Tags dies seen here.  

  Next is a fun fold card made by Marilyn featuring the Cup of Tea bundle.  Her main colors include Starry Sky and Parakeet Party.  

  

  She used the Layering Circles and Stylish Shapes dies for her circle element.  The pretty texture is the Quatrefoil Tile embossing folder seen here.  

  Her measurements are:

  • Card base 5 1/2" X 8 1/2" scored at 2 1/2" & 6 1/2" 
  • DSP  5 1/4" X 2 1/4" 
  • textured layer 5 1/4" X 1 3/4"
  • inside White is 3 1/2" X 4 5/8" 

  

   

  The last card I'm sharing today was made by Miles & Laura and features the Flowers & Leaves punch and the 6 X 6" In Color designer series paper.  Isn't it fun!?!

  

  I'll be back with the last set of wonderful swap cards tomorrow!

• 1st set of Amazing In Color card swaps!

  June 15, 2022

  ---

  Last weekend our Flowerbug's Team met and swapped cards featuring at least 2 in colors.  I can't wait for you to see them all; they're fabulous! 

  This first card was made by Jacki featuring two punches!  The Ladybug Builder and Medium Daisy punch.  

  

  Here in colors include Tahitian Tide, Parakeet Party & Orchid Oasis.  She also used the Painted Texture embossing folder on her White layer.  

  Next is a card made by Mary.  She used the Framed Occasions stamp set in Parakeet Party and Orchid Oasis. 

  

  This stamp set coordinates with the Beautiful Shapes dies.  The Designer paper is the Tea Boutique DSP.  

  Deloris made this vibrant card with the Amazing Year stamp set.  Her in colors include Parakeet Party and Tahitian Tide. 

  

  She used the new Stylish Shapes dies and the Hive 3D embossing folder.  I believe she colored in the image with Blends markers. 

  Lastly is a card made by Tracey; she featured a bunch of the new In Colors along with Crushed Curry.

  

  Her card includes stamps from the Color & Contour stamp set and the Scalloped Contour dies that coordinate with it.  

  I'll be back with another set of wonderful swap cards tomorrow!
