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.

    • The greeting dies are from the Well Written set here
    • The black die-cut trees on the left are from the Majestic Mountain dies.

  • Ombre sponging technique with Flowering Foils


    Before I talk about today's project I have to let you know that they Golden Honey Designer Paper is no longer available.  It was one of the free choices during Sale-a-Bration.  Unfortunately these products are only available while supplies last. So don't delay on your orders!  

    This next card is a version of a card I'm sending to my new Team members who purchased the Starter kit this month.  I chose to use Bermuda Bay with Black and White; you know the 'Black & White with a pop of color' theme.  It's a classic and always works! 

    I started out with a 2" X 5" strip of the Flowering Foils specialty designer paper.  It's gorgeous with silver and rose gold foil designs. You can see it here.  It's a free choice with any $50 order while supplies last.  

    I inked a wedge of sponge in Bermuda Bay ink and lightly sponged from bottom up.  I always start off of the card stock when I want a smooth look.  Also sponge in a soft circular motion; almost like you are washing it.  You can see me demo this in my FB Live video here. 

    Other Details:

    • Rare Blessings stamp set for the greeting
    • Stitched So Sweetly dies
    • pearls are colored with the dark Bermuda Bay Blends marker
    • The flower is fussy cut from the same designer paper and colored with light Bermuda Bay Blends marker
