Fantastic Team swaps with Botanical Textures suite

May 16, 2025

Today I have three fantastic swaps made by my Flowerbug's Team; all featuring the Botanical Textures suite from our online store. Did you know we have a huge selection of items that are not seen in any printed catalog? They're called Online Exclusives and you can see them all here.

This first card was made by Kim for her Card Club swap. I had to share it with you because I thought it was so neat. She used Black, White and Lemon Lime Twist.

Her stamped images are from the Textured Notes stamp set. The cute hexagon gems are new and seen in our 2025-26 Annual Catalog.

Next is a fabulous fancy fold card made by Rita. She also used this same Botanical Textures DSP along with Petunia Pop card stock.

Save

She used the Bright Borders stamp set and the To the Point punch. This punch has been out of stock for months! I hope it comes back soon. It is expected around June 2nd.

Here's the view when it's open:

The card base is 11" X 5 1/2". It's scored at 1 3/4", 3 1/2", 5 1/4" & 7". Then it's trimmed horizontally at 1" from the upper and lower edges but only from the 1 3/4" and 5 1/4" score lines.

The DSP is 6 3/4" X 5 1/4".

It looks like she adhered the DSP and then cut the slits open with a paper trimmer. So cool! No difficulty measuring your layers when you do it this way.

Lastly today is Ginny's card made with the Woven Textures DSP and the Textured Notes bundle. I love these products; one of my favorites from the online store!

Save

Her colors include Early Espresso and Crumb Cake. She used five different dies from the Textured Notes dies! I especially like the frame in the center, highlighting that pretty DSP.

Below is the inside view stamped with textural images from the Textured Notes stamp set.

Spotlight on Nature – sneak peak of the fabulous new bundle

April 26, 2024

Look at the beautiful card my friend & team member Candy sent me last week. One of our team challenges was to send RAK cards. Random Acts of Kindness. I was very grateful to receive one from her!

Save

It's made with a new bundle in the 2024-25 Annual Catalog by Stampin' Up!. It's called Spotlight on Nature. It includes floral, leaves and butterflies along with pretty sentiments. And an amazing set of detailed & texture circle dies.

Notice her softly sponged background around the flowers & leaves. She used Balmy Blue, Old Olive & Calypso Coral here, coloring in her images with Blends markers. Note that Olive circle die-cut – you can spy it in the photo below.

We're going to love these dies!!

Save

Demonstrators were able to pre-order this gorgeous bundle in April but everyone can order it after May 1st. In fact you could add it to your Starter kit too.

I'll be sharing more projects with this bundle soon. Thanks for the fabulous card Candy!!
