Fast but fabulous Flowing Flowers card kit to go with my Easy 8 Card Wonder template


I created these pretty cards on last week's FB Live.  I used the Flowing Flowers stamp set in a unique set of colors.

This stamp set was one of my top picks in the Spring catalog.  Not just because it's flowers, but because of the Distinktive images and pretty greetings.  Look!

Here's a link to the live video where I made a totally different set of cards using the same OSW template. I created it a few years ago and love trying it with different stamp sets.  I find it's a fabulous way to get beautiful cards made quickly without a lot of measuring. 

**Did you know that my Team members get all of my tutorials free? They receive every single one I make – at least 3-5 a month! We met on Sunday night via Zoom and many of us used the Easy 8 Card Wonder to make our cards. So fun to visit while we stamped!!  Ask me about the Starter Kit deal & joining my Flowerbug's Team. 

Here is the 8 1/2" X 11" sheet of basic White card stock that I stamped using the images in the Flowing Flowers stamp set. 

I did do a little 'surgery' on one of the stamps (seen the flower in the first photo above).  I cut the leaves and the spatter part away from the main flower so I could stamp them in different colors.  I know I'll use this stamp so much more this way.  I used our Paper Snips to do it.  I encourage you to try this on your stamps; it's scary but so worth it! 

Here is one of the cards made with my template. *These three pieces were cut on the printed lines on the reverse side. No measuring!!  

You have a few choices if you want to make cards like these:

  • Get the template & PDF tutorial here in my Shop.  It's called the Easy 8 Card Wonder and includes directions for 4 different sets of cards & color combos.  $15 *Click here to see my other OSW's. Plus once you purchase it, you will get an email every time I update the tutorial with new color combos & stamp sets! 
  • Reserve a pre-cut kit to go by Feb 15th.  Contact me here.  I'll send you a PayPal invoice for it all. The kits are sent out at the end of February via Priority Mail. It's $46 with shipping.

The Kit to go includes:

  • the Flowing Flowers 9 piece stamp set
  • a printed template on 8 1/2" X 11" Basic White CS
  • pre-cut & punched pieces for all 8 cards
  • the free PDF tutorial sent in an email  
  • You will need your own ink (I used Navy, Daffodil, Bermuda Bay & Coastal Cabana), adhesives & gems. 

You can see the video here where I show how the template is used.  I created a different group of cards using this Easy 8 Card Wonder template.

  • Butterfly wobble & Bokeh technique with video!


    I'm excited to share one of my March Club cards with you.  This background is called the Bokeh technique. 

    Sponging a background is a big favorite of mine and when you add the Bokeh technique to it you get magic! I created my own dotted mask by punching a bunch of circles from a piece of card stock.  

    We made these cards at my March card clubs and they loved it!  I used the Vine Design stamp set as well as the Happy Thoughts set; both are retiring and on the Last Chance list here.  

    Measurements:

    • Pacific Point 4 1/4" X 11" scored at 5 1/2"
      White sponged layer 3 3/4" X 5"
      White layer (under sponged layer) 3 7/8" X 5 1/8"
      White inside 3 1/2" X 4 3/4"
      White greeting strip 1/2" X 5"

    I used Pretty Peacock, Pacific Point & Magenta Madness inks as well as the White Craft ink pad for the light colored dots.  You can see the video below.  It's so easy and amazing!

    The butterflies are created with the new Brilliant Wing dies seen here. They'll be in the upcoming Annual catalog but are available now too. 

    Here is the video; I hope you watch it.  This technique is so fun and unique every single time!  Think of the colors you could use!

  • Sweet Easter Baskets; Quick & Easy


    Need a quick project for Easter?  Or May Day?  Or to make something fun with a child?  This is it!

    I made these on a recent FB Live and it couldn't be easier!  

    Start out with a square of paper.  I chose to use White card stock for the one above since I wanted to stamp my own background with the Circle Celebration stamp set.  I chose to use Magenta Madness, Old Olive, Daffodil Delight and Balmy Blue.  

    I used a 5 1/2" square of White CS for it so I could get two baskets from one sheet of 8 1/2" X 11" paper.  Score it at 1 3/4" on all sides.  Cut up two sides and fold them up to form the basket.  Add a strip of CS for a handle and something fun on the side.  Here I used the Oval Occasions stamp set.

    For the butterfly basket on the right I used a 6 X 6" square of Butterfly Bijou designer paper.  Unfortunately this paper is sold out now.  They hoped to have enough through May but we all loved it so much they ran out!  I'm so sorry about that.  

    The 6" basket is just slightly larger than the 5 1/2" basket; both work wonderfully for holding treats! 

    You can see the video here.  It's a FB live replay; scroll towards the end to see the basket project.
