Delicate Botanical Expressions card with video & free project sheet

August 31, 2026

Before I share today’s card I want to remind you that today is the last day to take advantage of the Designer Paper and Card stock sale. Go here to shop and grab the deals on paper.

Here’s the pretty card I shared last week on video. We made them at my August Card Clubs. Sadly it was the last Club I’ll hold in Minot. Our house has an offer in pending and I’ll have just one last event this Thursday there. My home studio has so many wonderful memories from my friends/customers. It’s hard to say goodbye!

I’m holding my Holiday Catalog open house September 3rd from 3:30-6 pm. If you’re local please come to see me (and the displays, food and deals!)

It features the new Botanical Expressions die (the white leaves die-cut) seen here. It’s a single die that can be used in multiple ways. I especially love the cut lines in the dies.
*Tip: rub waxed paper over the cutting side of your dies every few cuts; it releases the card stock easily then.

Here I adhered it over dark green DSP and added Barely Blush DSP above and below it. There are so many pretty details here!

The floral DSP is called Bloom Boutique Specialty paper and can be seen here. It’s filled with gold foil highlights.

This card is a landscape gatefold card. The Peaceful Pine layer is adhered to only the left side of the card base.
My greetings are from the Scalloped Blooms and Framed Violets sets. The inside flowers are from the Flowering Meadow stamp set.

That pretty scalloped greeting die is also from the Scalloped Blooms bundle seen here.

I created a free project sheet for this card. Click here to print or download it. It has measurements, supplies, photos and directions.

I also shared the ‘how to’ video below. I hope you watch!

I asked my Flowerbug's Team what the best part of being a Stampin' Up! Demonstrators is. I loved hearing their thoughts!

Discounts on stuff I would want to order anyway!
Getting to see and order from new catalogs before everyone else!
Ordering what I want, when I want at a discounted rate and getting hostess goodies.
Social gatherings with friends & meeting new friends is a bonus!
I like that there's no pressure to sell, sell, sell. If you are motivated (and there is support to keep you motivated) the sky is the limit. But if you are in it for the joy of a creative outlet you have support for that too! Supportive upline and peers.
In no particular order: discount, first glance at catalogs, meeting with and creating with new friends, lots of support for taking your business where you want to go.
My favorite perk is discount with early sneak peeks, but I love the friendships made, with the help, support and sharing of ideas amongst each other.

Jar of Flowers Double Flap Fun-fold card with video!

June 26, 2020
The Jar of Flowers bundle is pretty neat and easy to create wonderful cards with. We made these cards at my June card clubs. It was sooo great getting together with my gals again. North Dakota is open to events again but we are still being cautious too.

Save

You can really see the details on the card in this close up view. That neat texture is the Tasteful Textile 3D embossing folder. The colors are Misty Moonlight with Bumblebee and the In Good Taste designer paper.

There are sooo many wood, texture and patterns in this big pack of In Good Taste paper. It is amazing! Here's a good view of this paper.

Save

Here's another version of the card using the jar and water image but the flowers are from the Tasteful Touches stamp set. This card was for those who didn't want to color. We added punched flowers using the Confetti Flowers Border punch seen here. After punching we added a dot of Navy ink for the centers.

Save

For this fold all I did was trim off an inch from the card front and add a flap that is hidden by the strip of In Good Taste DSP. This flap is what the front panel is adhered to. Watch the video below!

The cards are finished off with a greeting from the Lovely You bundle – this is one of my favorite bundles! I love the Pick a Punch and the Lovely You stamp set is full of wonderful greetings.

Measurements:
- Bumblebee card 5 1/2" X 7 1/2" scored at 4 1/4"
  In Good Taste DSP 1" X 5 1/2"
  White – front and inside 4 1/8" X 3", scrap for greeting is 1/2" wide
  Misty Moonlight 3 1/4" X 4 3/8", flap is 1 3/4" X 3 1/2" scored at 1/2"

Blossoms in Bloom; puzzling it together?

June 25, 2020

Here's an incredible card featuring the Blossoms in Bloom bundle made by my Flowerbug's team member Jacki for a new catalog card swap.

Save

I just love these colors together; Just Jade and Misty Moonlight.

Can you tell that she stamped the large floral image on her White CS using Misty Moonlight? Then she added die-cut layers in White, Misty Moonlight and Just Jade. Yes; she cut out three dies for each card and puzzle fit them over the stamped image!!! Amazing, but stunning!

If you want to see this bundle online, click here.

I believe she cased this card from Pinterest; made by Mary Detherage.
