Great card ideas from my Flowerbug’s Team swaps!


Here are a few more swap cards made by my Flowerbug's Team in August.  I hope you get some inspiration from them.  

First is a sweet card made by Candy using the Caroling Mice stamp set. It's a hostess stamp set that's free with host rewards. See it and the details on page 86 of the Holiday catalog.  Or click here.  

Her colors are Cherry Cobbler, Crumb Cake, White & Shaded Spruce.  She colored the images in with Blends markers.  I love how she paired the Merry Melody embossing folder with this!  

The circles are from the Layering Circles dies and the designer paper is the Lights Aglow specialty DSP.  It is currently out of stock but will return in September.

Next is another fun card using the same Caroling Mice set, made by Sharon.  

She used a totally different color combo here – Orchid Oasis with White & Garden Green.  

We colored the mouse in with watercolor pencils and smoothed them out with a Blender pen.  She used the Deckle dies for her rectangles, the Christmas Banner dies for the greeting and the trees are from the same set but fussy cut.

That dotted silver background paper is from the Silver & Gold DSP – currently available free with a $50 during Sale-a-Bration in August.  Sale-a-Bration ends on the 31st!  

We used the Pearlized Enamel Effects on the tree ornaments, the music notes and for his hat pompom! So fun! 

It comes in 3 colors – Black, White & Real Red. See this product here.

Lastly for today is Becky's card – she loves to combine multiple stamp sets & dies for a super creative card! 

I'll list them here:

  • Ornament, stars, bow & pine bough – Decorated Pine dies
  • Plaid background in Red glimmer & Shaded Spruce – Candy Cane dies
  • The ornament is made from Silver Foil paper & paper pieced with In Color glitter paper!

  • Cheerfully Inked card kit to go; reserve yours soon!


    Because we’re moving to Bismarck in July I will have just one card kit to go in June. I will be busy packing and moving so I’m cutting back on blog posts, videos and creating for a few weeks.

    This kit to go features the Inked Occasions Paper Pumpkin kit. Look how colorful and beautiful they are?! Of course I changed up the original kit to create these:

    I have a small, limited supply of these kits!

    You can reserve your kit here; they’re $31 for all 12 cards with envelopes. It includes all die-cuts and layers plus a share of pretty sequins. You’ll receive the PDF tutorial immediately after purchase; check your junk folder.

    I also have a PDF tutorial option if you already own this Paper Pumpkin kit. It’s $16. See that here.

    But you can browse my many other kits to go here. Quite a few are reduced in price to clear them out before I move.

  • Last of the Team card swaps featuring new products


    Today I’m sharing the last two swaps from May; our theme was to use new Summer catalog products.

    This first card was made by Ginny. She cased a card made by Chelle Scott.

    She used the Fern & Flora bundle seen here. Who doesn’t love ferns!? Stampin’ Up! did an awesome job on these dies.
    The colors here are Mossy Meadow, Old Olive and Peaceful Pine.

    And look at that gorgeous embossing folder – called Fern & Flora 3D folder is stunning! See it here.

    Next is a pretty card made by Paula who featured the Valley in Bloom Designer Paper.

    It’s a book binding card fold. Start with a 11″ X 4 1/4″ card base; score at 4 1/4″ & 5 1/2″. Adhere the ‘binding’ area down.
    Her colors include Blackberry Bliss with Granny Apple Green. She added some of the new 2026-28 In Color butterflies too.

    This designer paper is simply stunning; it’s so soft and yet detailed at the same time. See it here.

    Here’s what she did on the inside. The dies are so pretty!

    Here’s the Lily of the Valley bundle that includes these beautiful dies.

    Thanks for joining the swap gals; LOVE your cards!

  • Neat Diagonal Z-fold with Balloon Festoon; free project sheet too!


    I created this card for my May Team swap; the theme was to use new Summer catalog products.

    The Balloon Festoon bundle is a new favorite of mine. The multiple sizes of balloon dies are just wonderful and perfect for any celebratory event. See it here.

    I used the 12 X 12 Pool Party 2-tones card stock for the diagonal layer. It’s 12″ X 5 1/4″ scored every 4″. Then simply cut at an angle from the lower left to the upper second score line.

    The cute patterned balloons are cut from the new Beautiful Ordinary Life designer paper (seen here) and the new 2026-28 In Color Patterns DSP. See it here.

    I created a free project sheet for you; click here to print or download it.

    Below is the video where I shared this card and another featuring the same products.
