Circle Celebration Easy 8 Card Wonder Kit to Go!

As you know I love creating One Sheet Wonders.  I have created lots of them in the years I've been a demonstrator.  I create the cards and my husband makes the templates.  You can see them all here in my Shop.  

For these cards I used my Easy 8 Card Wonder template and the Circle Celebration stamp set.  You can see the stamp set here.  

Save

The colors are Poppy Parade, Night of Navy, Bermuda Bay and Daffodil Delight.  I wanted them to be bright and happy celebratory cards. I think I succeeded! 

For the greetings I used the stamp sets Many Mates & Itty Bitty Birthdays but you can easily substitute what you own. 

Here's a look at how I made the main 'wonder' piece.  I used slightly different colors on this sheet, but it gives you the idea. 

Save

I stamped all over a sheet of 8 1/2" X 11" White card stock; the printed template is on the reverse side.  After stamping I flip it over and cut on the printed lines. Each piece is numbered so I know which one goes with which card in the tutorial.  The PDF tutorial includes measurements for other pieces needed. 

You can purchase the PDF tutorial here.

There is also a kit to go option for $28.  It includes the following:

• Circle Celebration photopolymer stamp set
• 8 pre-cut cards including layers, punched and die-cut pieces
• The printed 8 1/2" X 11" White card stock
• The complete PDF sent via email

*You will need the inks in the colors stated above (or similar colors), a paper trimmer and adhesive. The kit does not include stamped images, gems or ribbon.

If you want the pre-cut kit to go contact me at lagreff60@gmail.com. I cannot give a link to purchase here due to SU regulations. 

I have two kits to go this month; see the other one here.  Opt in for both and save on shipping!

• Last set of swaps made by my Team using the new In Colors

  May 24, 2024

  ---

  Here are the last of this month's Team swaps:

  Mary made this pretty card using two new In Colors – Petunia Pop & Summer Splash.

  Save

  She used the new Unbounded Love bundle and the Unbounded Beauty designer paper.  The bundle is not available right now and the DSP is in low inventory. Popular items for sure!! The embossing folder is Distress Tile 3D. 

  Measurements:

  • White card base 5 1/2" X 8 1/2" score/fold at 4 1/4".
  • Petunia Pop 5 1/4" X 4" & 3 1/2" X 2 3/4"
  • Summer Splash 5" X 3 3/4"
  • DSP 3 1/4" X 2 1/2" 

  Rita made this cute card with the 2024-26 In Color designer paper. 

  Save

  Her card base is White as is her textured layer although it's hard to see here.  She added a Nested Essentials DSP die-cut vertically that adds some fun interest to the card.  

  ~~~

  Lastly is Paula's pretty card; she used the same colors and designer papers as Mary's card above. Petunia Pop is beautiful with Summer Splash. 

  Save

  She used the Unbounded Beauty suite here; see it on page 54 of your new Annual catalog. It starts out as a center gate-fold card but turns into so much more when you open it!  

  It's a center fold pop up card!  I was amazed by it and thought it looked super hard to make.  She assured me it wasn't so I took on the challenge and made one on my Tuesday Live video seen here.  

  Save

  Isn't this an amazing card?  It looks so challenging to make! 

  I'm not going to share measurements for this card today since it's very similar to the card I shared on the Tuesday video.  I will post the video & free project sheet for my card on Monday.

  Thank you so much for the inspiration & encouragement Paula.  You were right; this card was easier than I thought!

  This pack of paper is filled with bold patterns and bright colors; see it here.  She layered 3 pieces of designer paper with Berry Burst card stock. The greeting is heat embossed on the back side of one of these patterns.

  Her fresh color combination is Lemon Lolly with Soft Sea Foam. She added this pretty soft yellow ink to the daisy centers and layered the dies so nicely they look super realistic!  The embossing folder is the Exposed Brick 3D which is currently out of stock; but it will be back!

• Fabulous Team Swaps!

  May 22, 2024

  ---

  We held our monthly Flowerbug's Team Meeting on Saturday and I wanted to share the card swaps they made. 

  First is a beautiful card made by Candy who featured the new Loveliest Tree stamp set seen here.  

  Save

  Her colors include Mossy Meadow, Blackberry Bliss and Cajun Craze.  Gorgeous!!  The embossing folder is the Eyelet 3D folder seen here.

  Save

  There are dies that go with it too. I believe she colored the tree in with Blends markers. She also used Wink of Stella on the tree image – it shows up very well in person but not as much in person.

  Save

  Next is a neat fun fold card made by Jacki. She chose the Trusty Tools stamp set & dies.  

  Save

  See the stamp set here and the dies here.  They were a bundle in the Spring catalog and carried over into the new Annual Catalog. 

  The designer paper is the Countryside Inn DSP seen here that carried over and is now online.
