My Team held a swap featuring Designer Paper and this is the card I created for it.  

I loved the 'Inked Folder' technique so much I wanted to feature it on my card.  You can see how it's done in the video here.  And more examples featuring this Pretty Flowers embossing folder here.  

This embossing folder is a free gift to anyone who places an online order over $50 in June. *See it here. 

I took the easy way out when I stamped my greetings.  Here are the steps for perfect stamping using the Stamparatus:

  1. I die-cut a bunch of the White labels (from the Hippo & Friends dies) first. 
  2. Then I placed the frame left over from die-cutting on my Stamparatus. 
  3. Lay your clean stamp on the label, positioning it in place. 
  4. Close the clear plate to 'grab' the stamp. 
  5. Ink the stamp and close the plate to stamp. 
  6. Repeat!   

The Black & White striped Designer Paper is from the Pattern Party host pack seen here.  It's free with Hostess Rewards.  How do you get host rewards?  If your order is over $150 you earn free product and can choose from anything in the catalog including the items on pages 170-171 which are marked down just for host rewards!  

June Specials:

The last chance list is out!  Check out the retiring and discounted products here.

  • Last of the Team swaps; gorgeous cards from the Holiday & Annual catalogs


    Today is the last of the swaps from our Flowerbug's September swap event.  I've sure enjoyed sharing their talent with you and hope you've been inspired by them.  If you haven't seen them all, click here and scroll down.  

    First up is a a card by Ginny who featured the Painted Pheasant stamp set seen here.  I just love the colors she achieved on the bird!!

    She inked the stamp with markers; spritzed with water and stamped.  A clever way to get multiple colors on this image.  

    Her card base is Petal Pink with a bit of Soft Succulent and Cajun Craze added too. 

    ~~~

    Next is a pretty card made by Marilyn with the Gathered White bundle seen here.  

    She used the Deckled rectangles & Stylish Shapes dies in addition to the dies in the Gathered White bundle.  Her colors are Crushed Curry with Early Espresso & White.  

    ~~~

    Lastly is Tracey's cute card made with the Cheerful Basket bundle.  There's so much life & texture to this card! 

    Her colors are Crushed Curry, Cherry Cobbler, White & Soft Suede. The embossing folder is called Gingham, the letters are stamped on the Celebrate Everything host DSP and the apples are colored with Blends markers. 

    The 'apples' is made with the adorable Alphabest bundle seen here.  This punch & stamp bundle is so easy to use!  It's photopolymer and allows you to easily and quickly customize your projects.  See it here. 

    I hope you've enjoyed seeing the many incredible swap cards my Flowerbug's created for our September swap.  Here's a photo of them all:

  • 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!!
