Great card ideas from my Flowerbug’s Team swaps!

August 21, 2022

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.

Save

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!

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!

Save

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!

Amazing Beautiful Motif dies featured on this simple card

June 4, 2025

I shared this card on my Live video last week. It's a simple fun fold that looks extra special due to the dies I used.

Save

The Beautiful Motifs is wonderful, mostly because of the extra special dies. 3 of the 5 dies partially cut out and the other 2 do cut out fully (see the pink flower above).

This set of dies or bundle will be included in the Suite sale starting today! Once you buy one item at full price you can get these dies for just $16.50 (if less than the first item).

Save

In the photo below you can see how one of the other partially cut dies looks – in the bottom corner inside the card. What a pretty addition to our cards!

The textured Pink strip is the Damask Designs embossing folder seen here. It's also included in the Suite sale!

Below is the video for this card and another special fun fold card; both featuring this awesome bundle.
