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!

  • 3 ways to use the Layered Floral on one card!


    I shared this pretty textured card on last week's FB live video: 

    The textured card stock is Fresh Freesia.  I used a Blending Brush with Blackberry Bliss ink to highlight the gorgeous texture. The Layered Floral 3D embossing folder is amazing; it has super deep texture! 

    I made a second card during the video with another rich color combination of Night of Navy with Boho Blue. Note the different ways I added vellum to these two cards. 

    Also note the pretty texture added to the envelope flap; why don't we do this more often!? 

    Here are the 3 ways I featured this pretty Layered Floral 3D embossing folder:

    1. Textured, then added ink with a Blending Brush.
    2. I textured the envelope flap and add a very light ink, again with a Blending Brush.
    3. Cut out a large flower from a separate piece of textured card stock; and I punched a smaller flower using the Petal Park Builder punch – yes it coordinates!!

    Products used here:

    • Layered Floral 3D embossing folder; seen here
    • Deckled Circle dies seen here
    • Vellum card stock
    • Cheerful Daisy dies
    • Heartfelt Hellos stamp set from Sale-a-Bration catalog seen here; free with a $50 order

    Which is your favorite?

  • Stunning cards in the Lovely Lavender card kit to go!


    I love these gorgeous cards so much!  They have lots of details & elements but they're still quick to create!

    This card kit includes 12 cards; you'll make 4 each of 3 card designs. It's based on the Lovely Lavender Paper Pumpkin refill kit but I've added an extra 4 cards, changed them up and added on extra product to jazz them up.

    The kit includes the following:

    • 12 card bases, greeting labels & die-cut elements for the 12 cards
    • a share of Fine Shimmer Purple gems
    • a share of Paper Butterfly Accents
    • 12 envelopes
    • The PDF tutorial with photos & step by step directions

    This kit does not include stamps or inks. You'll need greetings, purple ink & adhesives to complete the cards. I used the Charming Sentiments set. 

    Click here to reserve your kit for $28 plus shipping. 

    I have a limited supply of these kits; do not wait long to reserve yours!  The kits will be mailed out at the end of February. The PDF tutorial will be sent via email immediately after payment. Check your junk folder. 

    I have 6 other pre-cut card kits & 1 scrapbook kit available in my shop right now.  Save on shipping and order more than one!

  • Flight & Airy surprise accordion fold with video & free project sheet


    I shared this beautiful card in last week's Live video. We also made it at my local Card Clubs as well.  

    There are so many fabulous projects and features on this pretty card front I'll list them here:

    • The colors are Fresh Freesia with Boho Blue & White.
    • The Fresh Freesia layer is first cut with the Perennial Postage dies before texturing. 
    • The beautiful texture is from the Layering Floral 3D embossing folder seen here.  I cannot recommend this folder enough!  I rubbed my Craft White ink pad directly over the deep texture to highlight the flowers. *watch the video
    • The pretty butterfly is from our Paper Butterfly Accents. We added Boho Blue & Fresh Freesia ink to it with Blending Brushes. 
    • The greeting stamps are from the Heartfelt Hellos stamp set.  It's one of our free choices with a $50 order during Sale-a-Bration.  See it here. 
    • The White greeting label is made by punching the ends of a 1" wide strip of card stock with our Handmade Tag punch.  It's layered onto the Heartfelt Hexagon punch.
    • See the Flight & Airy designer paper here.  It's another free Sale-a-Bration choice with a $50 order through February, or while supplies last.
    • The inside layers were also made with the Perennial Postage dies (like the front layer) 

    But the coolest thing about this card is that you get a fun surprise once you open it! 

    There's a full strip of Flight or Fancy designer paper inside, folded accordion style in the center. This leaves the outer areas flat for adding greetings etc.  Remember there's a video tutorial to watch here or below. 

    You can add more labels, greetings or punches on each of the accordion folds as well if you wish.

    I hope you like this pretty, fun fold card!  It was a hit with my Club gals. 

    Here's the video tutorial for this card and a few more featuring some of these products.  Plus lots of product tips too!
