  • 2 different card ideas for a ‘Mystery Card challenge’ with Sentimental Swirls with video

    Every few months I offer a 'Mystery Card' challenge to my Flowerbug's Team.  They can opt in to receive a packet from me and I ask that they use some of the pieces in the packet to create a project and share it on our Team page.  They can add anything to the card that they want to. 

    I shared these ideas in the video I made on my weekly FB Live. Click here to watch it. 

    This time I focused on Brights DSP, vellum doilies, a Label Me Lovely punched piece and our Rainbow Glimmer paper in the annual catalog.

    I pulled out the Sentimental Swirls stamp set seen here for my cards and added Black accents and a strip of Melon Mambo. 

    SENTIMENTAL SWIRLS PHOTOPOLYMER STAMP SET (ENGLISH) Save

    I've always loved swirl images so this set was an easy choice.  Then add in the cute greetings (most are my 'go to' favorites) and 2-step stamp images and it's a hit!

    The card base is white, the DSP was Mango Melody and the Rainbow Glimmer paper had pinks & orange tones.  I used the Ladybug Builder punch for Black bodies & glimmer wings.  I cut the vellum doily in half on the diagonal to add it on the upper and lower part of the card.  A few Artistry adhesive-backed sequins finish it off!

    I made a few more with other 'mystery card' packets. This one had Bermuda Bay DSP in it and similar colors of Rainbow Glimmer paper.  I think the bright colors are perfect together!  The orange & pink really pop on the Bermuda Bay!

    The flowers are from the Flowers & Leaves punch and the flower centers are die-cuts from the Pierced Blooms dies. Here I cut the doily in half again and added both pieces at the bottom, under the greeting.

    The Rainbow Glimmer paper is in the Annual Catalog and will likely retire next week.  Get it here while you still can. You can see it in the photos above & below.

    You might wonder where I got that greeting shape.  It's actually the Label Me Lovely punch.  But I altered the size by punching it twice; removing some of it so it was much smaller.

    To do this easily, I stamp on a scrap of White and punch it out as usual.  Then I adhere a strip of card stock (black in the photo above) to the edge of the punched piece and insert it back into the punch.  The strip of card stock allows me to 'reach' and adjust the punch easily.

    This card was inspired by another Demonstrator but I cannot find the name to give credit now.  It's Balmy Blue with touches of Mango Melody.  I used a Blending Brush to achieve that smooth shaded layer of Mango Melody & Balmy Blue.

  • Free-form waves using the Floating Technique

    We made this gorgeous 'wave' card at a Team meeting last month.  I used the Waves of Inspiration bundle and a Blending Brush for the sky.

    The colors are Bermuda Bay, Pacific Point and White.  See those gorgeous gems?  They're called Rhinestone Waves Basic Jewels and there are 168 in a package for just $6.50!  See them here. 

    RHINESTONE WAVES BASIC JEWELS Save

    I had a bunch of curvy foil pieces left over after die-cutting a bunch of these waves from the two blue colors in the Blue Foil paper seen here.  I challenged myself to use them and came up with a free-form wave using the Floating Technique.

    I adhered various die-cut foil pieces to a Window Sheet using Multipurpose liquid glue and added them to the card with Stampin' Dimensionals.  This take a bit of patience as you can imagine!    

    Here are some tips to achieve this:

    • It's best if you start at the bottom and add just a few pieces. Let it set to dry. 
    • Adding a weight over them while they dry helps keep them flat. The foil likes to curl up.
    • Next form the top of the wave.  I used one of the long curved pieces for this.  
    • Add just a few pieces at a time and let them dry.  They slide easily!
    • Fill in the center of the wave a few at a time. Again, add weight over it all to set & dry.  
    • Trim off the sides of the Window sheet at 4" to fit the White layer. I fussy cut the top to match the foil wave.  
    • I adhered it to the textured 'Bark 3D' White 4" X 5 1/4" piece of CS with mini dimensionals.

    This card is part of my Waves of Inspiration tutorial and video with 11 projects!  This is available to anyone who purchases the Waves of the Ocean Collection from me or purchases my Waves of Inspiration kit to go.
