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.

• Blessings of Home card ideas; beautiful layouts

  January 18, 2022

  ---

  This week I'm sharing Monochromatic cards made by my Flowerbug's Team members.  It was our swap theme this month.  

  It was a challenge for some but their cards were incredible as usual! Both cards today feature the Blessings of Home bundle; seen here.

  This first card was created by Marilyn.  Her colors include Misty Moonlight, Night of Navy & White.  

  Save

  She used the large flower image to create a background using Misty Moonlight ink for a pretty tone on tone look.  She stamped the flower again on a piece of White CS and used the dies to cut it out. You cannot see in the photo but she added Wink of Stella to the flower.  

  It's adhered over a pretty Encircled in Beauty Navy die-cut. 

  Save

  This next card was created by Tracey using the same Blessings of Home bundle.  

  She used 3 different designer papers here – Heart & Home, Hand-Penned & the In Color 6 X 6" prints. I love how our colors & products coordinate so effortlessly.  Our color coordination is what brought me to Stampin' Up! and keeps me happy to stay.

  Details:

  • She stamped her flower image in Basic Gray ink and colored it in with Blends markers. It's fussy cut with the coordinating die-cut. 
  • She heat embossed her greeting with White embossing powder onto Designer Paper.  What a gorgeous card and a neat layout. 
  • The White CS behind the flower is textured with our new Gingham embossing folder seen here

• 3 unique Honeybee Home card ideas

  January 17, 2022

  ---

  This week I'm featuring cards made by my talented Flowerbug's Team. Today both cards showcase the Honeybee Home bundle seen here.

  This first card was made by Candace.  She is a master at coloring & sponging as you can see. 

  Save

  She stamped & die-cut the floral image multiple times for a pretty bouquet and adhered them to her beautiful sponged background.  The gorgeous sky background is done with Pacific Point ink and a very light hand at sponging. She colored the flowers with watercolor pencils.  

  Save

  You can see this pretty bundle here online.

  Next is a totally different card made by Annette for our Monochromatic swap this month.  

  Save

  She stamped the bee and greeting in Crumb Cake ink onto a Stitched Rectangle die-cut.  Then added a few die-cuts from the Honeybee Blooms dies and layered it on a Crumb Cake layer. Simply beautiful! 

  ~~~

  Mary made this next card with this same bundle along with the Heart & Home designer paper.

  She used 3 layers of this pretty paper as a background for her dies & greeting.  Great idea! 

  Save

  
  

  Her colors are Pale Papaya & Garden Green. The White greeting tag is one of my favorite 'go to' punches called the Tailored Tag punch. 

  Measurements:

  • White card base 5 1/2" X 8 1/2"
  • Pale Papaya 3 3/4" X 5"
  • DSP layers 1 1/2" X 3 1/2"
