Colorful swap cards with Pattern Party hostess paper
This weekend we held our monthly Flowerbug's Team swap and the theme was to make cards with yellow. It could be a lot, or just a little. We thought it was a great 'summertime theme'. I'm so proud of their cards; they are all quite talented!
This first card was made by Barb. She used the Back on Your Feet stamp set, the Basic Border & Meadow dies.
I just love how she colored the giraffe the same colors as her designer paper! What a well coordinated card! I believe she used our amazing Blends markers for coloring. And look at her inside! She used the extra die-cut edges to decorate the inside to match!
Next is Mary's card featuring the same Pattern Party designer paper. You can only get this paper with hostess rewards. You can see it on page171 of the annual catalog; or click here.
She used the Tailor Made Tags and the Biggest Wish stamp set. She also colored her clear rhinestones with a Blends marker before adding them to the tag.

The metallic magic starts with Stampin’ Hot Foil Rolls, specially-made Hot Foil dies, and the Stampin’ Hot Foil System that works with our Stampin’ Cut & Emboss Machine (sold separately). The heat of the platform transfers the foil using hot foil dies designed specifically for this system, allowing you to add dazzling details to paper and more. (IMPORTANT NOTE: Cutting dies are not designed to be used with hot foiling. You cannot die cut using foiling dies. Doing so risks damaging the dies and the system.)
As an added bonus, everyone who purchases this system before January 4, 2027, will automatically be able to access the upcoming Metallic Magic Craft Class, a technique-centric virtual class. Attendees will make unique projects and learn crafting tips intended to elevate their hot foil crafting experience. This class is a special limited-time offer exclusive to this system and is an amazing tool when it comes to increasing skills, learning techniques, and making the most of this new product line.
Gatefold cards are a great way to use your pretty designer series paper. Each side measures 1 7/8″ X 5 1/4″. I stamped the pretty flowers from the Flowering Meadow bundle seen here on the White arch die-cut; then layered it on the next size larger Peaceful Pine arch die-cut.
The Arches dies are out of stock currently but will be back.
I stamped the flowers in Bubble Bath, Berry Burst and Peaceful Pine ink. The greeting is stamped on a strip of White that is layered on the Velvet specialty paper in Bubble Bath color. A pretty but easy card.
The color combinations Stampin’ Up! comes up with in their designer paper continues to amaze me. They make it so easy to make beautiful, coordinating projects. Our color families and the matching products is what drew me to Stampin’ Up! over 21 years ago and is still one of my favorite things about them.
