Create this eye-catching scene with ink and blending brushes; video tutorial too!


Here's another card I created on last week's video. Do you love colorful scenes too? 

Here I used Cloud Cover cardstock for my base; scored it an extra time to create a flap near the center. This is a great way to add the main element of your card.  In this case it's a stamped and colored tree scene on our new Party Banner dies.  

I found the Peaceful Pier stamp set seen here to be perfect for my scenes. It's a great line-art set you don't have to color in, as you can see in my example. 

Here is the free project sheet with measurements and supplies listed: Click on the following link to download it.  Download Peaceful Pier fun fold scene

I am now adding my project sheets to my Flowerbug's Stamp & Share FB group the same day I share the live video.  Click here to join the group. 

I used these inks for blending; from bottom to top – Granny Apple Green, Calypso Coral, Daffodil Delight and Cloud Cover. Blending brushes make it easy to add ink smoothly. But there are tricks to it!  

Below is the video tutorial on how to add ink smoothly with Blending Brushes.  I hope you watch it!

  • Beautiful fall swap cards by my Team!


    This week I'm sharing the incredible swaps my Flowerbug's Team created for our September swap event.  Each month our group has an optional swap event that anyone on my Team can join.  This time it was fall or Halloween themed. 

    Did you know there is a new special on the Starter kit in October? You can become a Stampin' Up! demonstrator and enjoy all the perks too!  No worries on holding events or 'selling' if you don't want to. Most of my team are happy shoppers and just enjoy the discount and perks of being a part of the Stampin' Up! family.  Email me here if you'd like to learn more about this.

    Brenda made this gorgeous card with the popular Aspen Tree dies which were unavailable for awhile but they're back but now in low inventory again!  See them here.  

     

    She die-cut the large die from Early Espresso card stock and added a few die-cut leaves, also from the Aspen Tree dies set.  The 'Hello' is from the Hello Harvest stamp set, stamped on a white stitched rectangle die-cut.  

    Her amazing background is done with our Blending Brushes; it's a beautiful way to create a striking horizon for this die.

    Next is a stunning card made by Marla. This card has tons of texture that does not show in the photo. 

    She featured the Texture Chic, Gold & Rose Gold and Distressed Gold designer papers.  The leaves, acorn and grid die-cuts are from the Chic dies seen here.  The greeting die-cut is from the Floral Gallery dies. It's so pretty!

    Measurements: 

    • Coastal Cabana CS 5 1/2" X 8 1/2" scored at 4 1/4" & 4 1/4" X 3 1/4"
    • Early Espresso 5 1/4" X 4"
    • Texture Chic DSP 4" X 3" 

    ~~~

    Next is a card made by a couple; Miles & Laura, featuring the Gnomes bundle.  


    Isn't it a fun fall themed card?  The Kindest Gnomes bundle is quite versatile and don't have to be just for Christmas!

    Products used: 

    • DSP – Celebrate Everything host paper (Holiday catalog page 87)
    • Kindest Gnomes bundle seen here
    • Watercolor pencils & linen thread
    • Crushed Curry & White card stock, Black ink

    ~~~

    Next is a sweet card made by Kim; she used the Hello Harvest bundle seen here.  Unfortunately the dies are unavailable now; they should be back around October 24th. 


    Her colors include Soft Seafoam, Black, Mossy Meadow & Pumpkin Pie.  That gorgeous texture is made with the Leaf Fall 3D embossing folder seen here.

    I have two more fabulous swap cards to share with you from our September Team swaps.  My Flowerbug's are so talented and creative. 

    Paula made a Waterfall card!  These are not difficult but a bit intimidating maybe….  I shared a FB Live video here on how to make one.  

    She featured the Scary Cute bundle seen here as well as the Black & White designs DSP here.  The colors are Black, White & Gorgeous Grape.  

    She also used the Blossoming Happiness dies for her bottom border so she'd have a spot to add the Orchid Oasis 1/8" metallic ribbon for the pull.  

    Measurements: 

    • Black card 4 1/4" X 11" scored at 5 1/2"
    • Basic Gray strip 5 1/2" X 1 1/4", waterfall strip is 2 1/2" X 10" scored at 5 1/4", 6", 6 3/4" & 7 1/2"
    • Gorgeous Grape squares are 2 1/2"
    • White squares are 2 1/4"
    • DSP is 4" X 5 1/4"

    Here's a peak of the last inside panel with the die-cut & spooky scene.  She stamped the greeting on the long inside strip.  

    Again, if you want to know how to make one of these waterfall cards check out my video here.

    Next is a colorful Halloween card made by Sharon using this same bundle.  She also added stamps from the Best Witches & Bewitching stamp sets. 

    Her colors include Rich Razzleberry, Parakeet Party, Black & Daffodil Delight.  She used the Deckle dies for her front layers and inside as well.  

    Here's a photo of this cute bundle.  Click on it to see it in my store. 

    I hope you're enjoying these card swaps and getting inspired by them too!  There's lots more to come!!

    My Flowerbug's Team amazes me with their incredible card swaps; each and every month their cards are super fabulous!  I shouldn't be surprised at this point!  

    Our September Team card swap featured Halloween or Fall cards and I'll be featuring them for the next several days.  

    Annette made this first card with the Best Witches stamp set seen here.  Look at her amazing coloring!

    The colors include Highland Heather, Black & a bit of Granny Apple Green on the frog.  She used Blends markers for her coloring.  Love that face!

    The designer is our Black & White Designs from the Holiday catalog.  The circles are from the Layering Circles dies. 

    It's also a fun fold 'latch' card!  Here's the inside view: 

    Measurements:

    • Highland Heather: Card base 6 1/2" X 5 1/2" scored at 4 1/4".  Side flap is3 1/2" square
    • Black: 2 3/4" X 3 1/4" & 2" X 5 1/4"
    • DSP: 1 3/4" X 5"
    • White: front is 2 1/2" X 3", inside is 4" X 5 1/4"

    In the photo below you can see how the right panel is 'latched' with the layered circle greeting to keep it closed.  

    Next is a super cute card made by Candace with the Bewitching punch bundle seen here.  Unfortunately the punch is unavailable right now but it will be back!  I just love her playful circles layout! 

    She used Gorgeous Grape, Pumpkin Pie, Black & Granny Apple Green.  She cut off the front flap with the Border Basics dies and added a strip of Gorgeous Grape with the same die-cut edge.  

    The way she added the boots to be under the hat with this fold is genius!  


    Measurements:

    • Grape card base 5 1/2" X 4 1/4" plus a 3/4" X 5 1/2" strip for the zigzag die-cut border 
    • White is 5 1/4" X 7" scored at 4 1/8"
    • Circles are all die-cuts from the Stylish Shapes dies!  



    Don't you agree that these cards are amazing!?  I'm so proud to share the creativity of my Flowerbug's Team!  More to come tomorrow!
