Colorful Sunflowers the easy way!

June 23, 2020

Marilyn made this pretty card with the Celebrate Sunflowers stamp set (seen here) for one of our latest Flowerbug's Team swaps. I believe she found the idea on Pinterest. I love how it features 4 of our new In Colors!

The card base is Bumblebee. She added Black card stock and ink to pull the colors together. Here is a tip: stamp the sunflower on 4 different colored squares and then cut them into smaller squares. You'll get enough stamped pieces for 4 cards!

Measurements:

Bumblebee card base 5 1/2" X 8 1/2"
White – 5 1/4" X 4"
Black 3 3/4" square
Just Jade, Magenta Madness, Cinnamon Cider and Bumblee – 3 1/2" squares for stamping. Then cut into 1 3/4" squares to puzzle piece on each card.

I did have trouble getting a good photo of the actual colors on this one. I added Petal Pink/Champagne ribbon and Champagne rhinestones to this one. I cannot resist adding these when I can. They're beautiful!

Pleased as Punch fun fold card

February 5, 2020
I made this card for a recent online swap I participated in. I believe this type of fold is called a 'Joy Fold' card.

Save

The Pool Party piece is folded in half; the bottom part is under the front flap of the White layer. See measurements below.

Save

I chose to use the brand new Pleased as Punch designer paper seen here. It coordinates with FOUR of our current punches – amazing! The two hearts on this card are punched directly from the designer paper.

Save

I love it so much I am featuring it for my February card kit to go. I'll share that with you tomorrow.

Details:
- The hearts are punched from the DSP with the Heart Punch Pack
- The ribbon is the White seam binding on page 25 of the January – June Mini catalog
- the sequins are from the free SAB Metallic Baker's Twine & Sequins combo pack seen here
- the embossing folder is the Coastal Weave 3D embossing folder seen here
Measurements:
- White – 4 1/4" X 8 1/2" scored at 5 1/2"
- Pool Party 3" X 8 1/2" scored at 4 1/4"
- So Saffron 2 1/4" X 3 1/2"
- Pleased as Punch DSP 1/4" X 3 1/2"
