Fabulous swaps by my Flowerbug’s Team using new Stampin’ Up! products


My Flowerbug's Team has optional swaps each month. This month we used new Spring or Sale-a-Bration catalog products.  You're going to love these cards!

Roxanne made this cool card using the 'Way to Grow' stamp set seen here.  I think it's a totally new style of images we haven't seen before by Stampin' Up!  She shows it off wonderfully!  

She did do a bit of fussy cutting – the hair, shirt and pants.  Notice the shirt is stamped on Dandy Designs paper from the SAB catalog!  So cute!  

Look at the card sample on page 38 of the Spring catalog; she cased the layout on the bottom.  This is a great reminder that we can use the catalog samples as inspiration.  

Her colors are Coastal Cabana, Pear Pizzazz with Crumb Cake in the ribbon.  The Pear Pizzazz layer is textured with the Brick & Mortar 3D folder.

Next is a special card made by Annette.  She gives out calendar cards to her friends each year, so she made one for our swap participants too.  She orders these calendars online; there are several sites. Look on Amazon or Google for mini tear off calendars.  

She featured the new Friendly Gnomes stamp set here.  Isn't the coloring and shading beautiful?  She used Blends markers to color and ink and blending brushed for the background.  The gnome is die-cut with the Gnomes dies – they carried over from the Holiday catalog through May 1st.  

The designer paper is from the Dandy Designs pack – from our Sale-a-Bration catalog.  It's a big pack of 48 sheets; free with any $100 order from Stampin' Up!  See it here.  

Next today is a cute Easter card made by Candy.  She used the Easter Bunny stamp set seen here.  It has a coordinating Easter Bunny punch too!  

Her card is a fun fold – called a Book Binding card fold.  It starts out with a 4 1/4" X 11" card stock.  Score it at 4 1/4" and 5 1/2". The Dainty Flowers SAB DSP is 1 1/8" X 4".  The card stock layer is 4" square.  

She stamped and colored the bunny; then fussy cut it to pop up on the Stylish Shapes & Layering Circles dies.  Her embossing folder is the Pretty Flowers folder in the annual catalog.  Other additions are the Brushed Brass butterflies and Navy bordered ribbon.

  • CUTE Pillowbox ‘treat box’ you’ll love!


    I made this cute box using the Pretty Pillow Box dies.  Does it look like a pumpkin to you?  

    It does use the Pretty Pillow box dies for the flat shape of the front of this box, but the box itself is made from a piece of card stock (see measurements below). I found this idea from fellow demonstrator Lynda Emerson.  As usual I changed it up a bit from hers. 

    Products used:

    Crumb Cake card stock, He’s the Man DSP, strips of Mossy Meadow for apple die trim & for the leaves die-cuts, Pretty Pillow Box dies seen here, Stylish Shapes (for the circle die-cut), Penned Flower & Apple Blossom dies, Stripes & Spatters EF, Linen Thread for the bow, Simply Scored Scoring tool

    The inside of the box would hold quite a few treats; it's a good size!  

    Measurements:

    • Crumb Cake 5 ¼” X 7 ¼” scored at 2" on all 4 sides, plus two die-cut pillow box pieces
    • He’s the Man DSP 2 ¼” X 4 ½”

    Here is what the Pretty Pillow box dies look like: 

    Here are all of the projects I made. The other two cards feature the Hello Harvest bundle.

  • Use the stamp in a new way on this card! Hello Harvest projects


    Here's a pretty card I shared on last week's FB live video; it features the Hello Harvest bundle. 

    I cased the idea from my friend Dawn Olchefske; changing it up a bit.  The main floral image is stamped twice (once upside down) and the greeting covers where they meet.  You can see this image in the stamp set below. 

    It might look like there's an entire strip of designer paper under the main card layers.  But it's just a few small pieces of the Rustic Harvest DSP at the top & bottom of the Vanilla card. Check out the Hello Harvest bundle here.  

    I colored the floral image in with Blends markers in Daffodil, Fresh Freesia, Light Old Olive and Calypso Coral.  I also added a bit of color to the pretty greeting banner.  

    Measurements are: 

    • Vanilla 5 ½” X 8 ½”, 3 ½” X 4 ½” & scrap for greeting
    • Espresso 3 5/8” X 4 5/8”
    • DSP is 1” X 2 ¼”

  • Unique Hello Harvest Fun Fold card with measurements!


    I played with the Hello Harvest bundle on last week's FB Live video and this is one of the cards I made.  

    It's a unique fun fold that's quite easy. It's inspired by my friend Susie Wood. Check out her blog here; she does tons of fun fold cards!  I know you'll want to try this one!  

    I made the first card with a Soft Suede card base and then second guessed myself and made the second one in Pumpkin Pie. Which do you prefer?  

    Almost everything else is the same except the layers around the pumpkins & DSP layers.  

    Here are the measurements: 

    • Card base; 4” X 11” scored at 2” X 3 ¾” from each end, & 4 ¼” X 5 ½”
    • White 3 ½” X 3 ¼”, inside is 3 1/8” X 3 ¾” plus Stylish Shapes greeting die-cut
    • Gingham Cottage DSP 3 ¼” X 3” & 2 strips at 1" X 4", Green or pumpkin panel is 3 5/8” X 3 3/8”
