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!!

  • Jar of Flowers Double Flap Fun-fold card with video!


    The Jar of Flowers bundle is pretty neat and easy to create wonderful cards with.  We made these cards at my June card clubs.  It was sooo great getting together with my gals again. North Dakota is open to events again but we are still being cautious too.  

    You can really see the details on the card in this close up view.  That neat texture is the Tasteful Textile 3D embossing folder.  The colors are Misty Moonlight with Bumblebee and the In Good Taste designer paper. 

    There are sooo many wood, texture and patterns in this big pack of In Good Taste paper.  It is amazing!  Here's a good view of this paper.  

    Here's another version of the card using the jar and water image but the flowers are from the Tasteful Touches stamp set.  This card was for those who didn't want to color. We added punched flowers using the Confetti Flowers Border punch seen here.  After punching we added a dot of Navy ink for the centers. 

    For this fold all I did was trim off an inch from the card front and add a flap that is hidden by the strip of In Good Taste DSP.  This flap is what the front panel is adhered to. Watch the video below! 

    The cards are finished off with a greeting from the Lovely You bundle – this is one of my favorite bundles!  I love the Pick a Punch and the Lovely You stamp set is full of wonderful greetings. 

     

    Measurements:

    • Bumblebee card 5 1/2" X 7 1/2" scored at 4 1/4"
      In Good Taste DSP 1" X 5 1/2"
      White – front and inside 4 1/8" X 3", scrap for greeting is 1/2" wide
      Misty Moonlight 3 1/4" X 4 3/8", flap is 1 3/4" X 3 1/2" scored at 1/2"

  • Blossoms in Bloom; puzzling it together?


    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.

    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!

    I believe she cased this card from Pinterest; made by Mary Detherage.

  • Colorful Sunflowers the easy way!


    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.
