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.  

August Candy Caroling Mice Save

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! 

PEARLIZED ENAMEL EFFECTS BASICS Save

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!

  • Country Wreaths & Christmas Barn card ideas by the Flowerbug’s

    This week I've been proud to share my Team Christmas card swaps from our October swap event.  I am thrilled with the quality of our swaps each and every month!  

    Today's projects feature some pretty bundles in the 2022 Holiday catalog by Stampin' Up!  First is a fabulous card by Candy with the Cottage Wreaths bundle. 

    Oct Candy Country Wreath Save

    Her colors include Cherry Cobbler, Old Olive, White & Crumb Cake. 

    Details:

    • It's an easy fun fold card; she trimmed off 1" on the right side of her card front to reveal the Lights Aglow DSP on the inside edge.  
    • She textured the Crumb Cake layer with the Timber 3D embossing folder. 
    • Silver 3/8" edge ribbon and Festive Pearls are the embellishments

    Next is a book binding fun fold card by Mary; she also featured the Country Wreaths bundle.

    A book binding card is made by adding an extra score line to your 4 1/4" X 11" card.  Score at 4 1/4" and 5 1/2". 

    The DSP layers are 3/4" X 3 7/8" and 3 7/8" square.  Red layers are 7/8" X 4" and 4" square. 

    She used the Gingham Cottage DSP on her card front and Real Red & Garden Green card stock.

    Lastly today is a beautiful scene made by Roxann with the Christmas Barn bundle seen here.  

    Oct Roxann Christmas Barn Save

    Her colors include Cherry Cobbler, White & Mossy Meadow.  She used Blends markers to color the images and our new Very Best Trio tag punch on the corners.  

    Here's her inside view:
