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.

  • Beauty of Friendship Fun Fold card


    Finally I can share this beautiful fun fold card we made at my May Card Clubs!  

    I like to wait until after all of my Clubs are held so I can surprise them with the cards we're making.  I'm not sure why; it's just a habit now after many years of doing it that way!  

    I chose to use the Beauty of Friendship bundle (seen here) to make this unique 'Latch fold'. 

    I chose to use a few of our new In Colors; So Succulent & Evening Evergreen along with Pool party.  It sure created a pretty, almost monochromatic card.  Everyone sure loved it; which is always my goal!

    This fold is very deceiving but so simple!  Just a little trick at the end to put it all together.  Watch the video below! 

    Download the Beauty of Friendship latch fold card project sheet or use these measurements:

    • Pool Party 5 1/2" X 6 1/2" scored at 4 1/4", 3 1/2" X 3 1/4" scored at 2 3/4" along the 3 1/4" side
      Whisper White 2" X 5 1/4", 2 1/2" X 3 1/4" and 4" X 5 1/4" inside, plus a scrap for die-cut
      Evening Evergreen – scrap for 2 1/4" circle

  • Pretty Perennials ‘Happy’ card with video


    I wanted to use the Pretty Perennials bundle for my April clubs and I found a card like this on Pinterest.  I love the fresh color combination of Daffodil Delight, Smoky Slate and Calypso Coral!

    The Perennial dies were used here along with a few others; the recently retired Stitched Shapes and the Stitched So Sweetly dies.  The pretty embossing folder is the Dainty Diamonds and I'm sad to say it did retire last month. 

    Here's the Pretty Perennials bundle.  This did not make it in the new Annual catalog and is retiring next month and it will be while supplies last.  

    I love this set for the flowers but the greetings are the star in my opinion.  There are so many ways to use the 'happy' with the rest of the words.  My favorite is 'Happy Mail'.  Who wouldn't love getting a card with that saying?  It could also be stamped on the outside of your envelope as well.  

    For the inside I used an oval die-cut and added a fun greeting from the Happiest of Birthday's set. 


    I made a quick video on putting this card together.  You can see it below.

  • Pretty is the word for the Hand Penned suite!


    This is one of the first cards I made with the Hand-Penned suite.  I chose to use the Soft Succulent card base with Fresh Freesia and So Saffron accents. 

    That pretty paper is called Hand-Penned Designer Paper seen here on page 131 of the new Annual catalog.  It features so many soft, beautiful colors. People are loving it so much I will likely feature it for a kit to go in June. 

    I used the Painted Labels dies for the neat circle die-cut and the Fresh Freesia scalloped trim is from the Hand-Penned Petals Bundle.  Click here to see the bundle.

    The greeting and flower images are from the Hand-Penned Petals stamp set.
