Encircled in Nature in Autumn colors – free project sheet & video tutorial

November 25, 2024

I shared this pretty card on last week's Live video. I featured the Encircled in Nature bundle.

My colors include Basic Beige, Cajun Craze and Old Olive. I used Daffodil Delight, Peach Pie and Calypso Coral for the sunset, adding each color softly with Blending Brushes.

I textured the extra layer (4" X 5 1/4") of Basic Beige with the Birch Wood 3D embossing folder seen here. Then I lightly sponged Basic Beige ink over it with a Blending Brush. I added Cajun Craze & Old Olive ink to the die-cut leaves with.

This pretty bundle is one of our Online Exclusives; available while supplies last. It's already been out for awhile so I'm wondering how much longer it will be available. *if you want it act fast!

Here's a photo of the bundle; click here to see it online.

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.

Colorful Sunflowers the easy way!

June 23, 2020
Marilyn made this pretty card with the Celebrate Sunflowers stamp set (seen here) for one of our latest Flowerbug's Team swaps. I believe she found the idea on Pinterest. I love how it features 4 of our new In Colors!

The card base is Bumblebee. She added Black card stock and ink to pull the colors together. Here is a tip: stamp the sunflower on 4 different colored squares and then cut them into smaller squares. You'll get enough stamped pieces for 4 cards!

Measurements:
- Bumblebee card base 5 1/2" X 8 1/2"
- White – 5 1/4" X 4"
- Black 3 3/4" square
- Just Jade, Magenta Madness, Cinnamon Cider and Bumblee – 3 1/2" squares for stamping. Then cut into 1 3/4" squares to puzzle piece on each card.
