Dainty Flowers cards with time saving tips!

I made this pretty card in just a few minutes with 1/8 of a 12 X 12" piece of the Dainty Flowers designer paper.  That means you can get 8 cards from each sheet! 

Save

I made the first cut across at 5 1/2".  Then cut each piece at 3" wide.  This gorgeous print is just one of many in this pack.  It's free with any $50 order during our Sale-a-Bration promotion from January 5th – February 28th.  See it here.

If you don't have the ribbon color you want, color it with a Blends marker.  Our Blends markers come in a 2-pack of light and dark; try both to see which one fits your needs.  And did you know that if you go over it more than once you can get a darker shade?  This works on both paper AND ribbon!

If you're making multiples of the same card AND heat embossing why not stamp & heat emboss multiples at the same time?  

Save

I inked the greetings (from Dainty Delight) in Versamark ink and stamped on the Old Olive CS. Then covered in White embossing powder before heat embossing with the Heat Tool.  Now I could trim them into strips for my cards.  

Tip; you cannot do an entire page at once or the ink dries before you can get powder on it.  I did 4-5 at a time and it works fine.  It all depends on how fast you can cover it with powder.  

**Before stamping I swiped my card stock with the embossing buddy. This is an anti-static bag that prevents excess powder from sticking where you don't want it.  The embossing buddy is included in our Embossing Additions Tool Kit seen here.

• Rainbow of Happiness in Black & White with a ‘pop’ of color!

  March 24, 2022

  ---

  I saw a similar card using the Rainbow of Happiness that was in Black & pink and I knew it would be perfect for my Flowerbug's Team swap this month.  The theme was Black & White with a 'pop' of color.  

  I chose to use Magenta Madness.  It's retiring this month and available here while supplies last.  

  Save

  I stamped the three rainbows in Black Memento ink using my Stamparatus. Making multiple cards with the Stamparatus is THE BEST WAY!  There's no guessing with stamp placement.  

  Save

  Details:

  • The stamps (hearts, rainbows & greeting) and cloud die-cuts are all from the Rainbow of Happiness bundle seen here. 
  • I stamped 'thank you' on scraps of Magenta Madness and punched it out with our Double Oval punch for the rainbow center. 
  • The designer paper in Black & White is from the All Together 6 X 6" pack seen here. 
  • The gems are the 2021-23 In Color jewels seen here. 
  • The Magenta Madness patterned paper is part of the 6X 6" DSP pack seen here.

• Amazing Side-step Vertical Easel card with Waves of the Ocean suite

  March 23, 2022

  ---

  We made this remarkable fun fold card at my March card clubs. It features the Waves of the Ocean suite seen here.

  Dies featured here:

  • The Dandy Wishes dies in  the Garden Wishes bundle is 20% off right now. You can see that here.  I just love the die-cuts and greetings in it.  *I wonder if this will be on the retiring list tomorrow….. 
  • The 'Thanks' and 'Amazing' dies are from the Amazing Thanks dies in the 2022 Jan-June catalog.  You can see them here.  I love the double layering you get with them!!  

  This card is 4 1/4" X 5 1/2" when finished and lays flat for mailing but stands up beautifully for display.  

  Save

  You can see how this is assembled in the video below.  I also list the measurements below too. 

  The card includes two white panels; one for the middle and one for the back.  We stamped the wave from the Waves of Inspiration stamp set using Pacific Point ink on the middle layer.  We added some Bermuda Bay ink on the wave using a Blending Brush.  We also added a soft bit of Pacific Point for the sky.  

  Save

  Some left the back empty so they could add a greeting later; depending on what they needed at the time. 

  As you can see below the gorgeous Waves of the Ocean designer paper includes a variety of 'paint poured' designs & colors.  I wanted it to be the main feature of the card and this fun fold made it happen!  This designer paper is available through May 1st or while supplies last.  This pretty paper, the foil and Waves rhinestones will not be in the new Annual catalog.

  I used the Dandy Wishes dies for the 'flower heads'.  For the right card below I trimmed off a few of the side pieces to create a smaller flower head.
