Favored Flowers SAB fun fold card with video


I hope you've had a wonderful Christmas weekend.  We sure did.  It was crazy busy trying to fit all of our annual activities into three days.  But we did it!  I sure love having my kids home for the holidays; we all look forward to it!

We have a few traditions; one is an appetizer show down. Each one of us makes an appetizer for Christmas eve and we vote on them.  We vote on taste AND presentation.  This year my granddaughter won with her Pizza Monkey Bread with marinara dipping sauce.  I came in second with Spanakopita.

    

The other fun thing we do is play Minute to Win It games.  We had a golf putting game, build the tallest snowman with marshmallows, Corn Hole, name the items in the stocking, moving mini marshmallows from one bow to another with a straw, filling a bowl with bows using a spatula blindfolded.  It's always a blast.  Funny story…. I always buy random presents for winners but totally forgot this year.  And I won!  Sheesh!

I shared this pretty card on last week's Facebook Live.  I'm not sure what this fold is called though!

The center panel lifts up.  It's 3 1/4" X 8 1/2" scored at 4 1/4".  The center DSP is 3" X 4" and so is the inside white panel.  

The flowers on the front White oval are fussy cut from the designer paper. This beautiful paper is free with a $50 order starting January 5th during Sale-a-Bration.  

I used Blackberry Bliss card stock since it matches the designer paper so well.  

  • Card base 5 ½” X 4 1/4", 3 ¼” X 8 ½” scored at 4 1/4"
  • White inside & DSP 3" X 4", DSP side pieces are 1" X 4" and 1 1/4" X 4"

The greeting is from another Beautifully Happy stamp set; also a free choice during Sale-a-Bration.  It's a big 17 piece Photopolymer set that's free with a $100 order from January 5th – February 28th. 

Here's the video showing how to make this card and another snowflake version too:

  • Blessings of Home card ideas; beautiful layouts


    This week I'm sharing Monochromatic cards made by my Flowerbug's Team members.  It was our swap theme this month.  

    It was a challenge for some but their cards were incredible as usual! Both cards today feature the Blessings of Home bundle; seen here.

    This first card was created by Marilyn.  Her colors include Misty Moonlight, Night of Navy & White.  

    She used the large flower image to create a background using Misty Moonlight ink for a pretty tone on tone look.  She stamped the flower again on a piece of White CS and used the dies to cut it out. You cannot see in the photo but she added Wink of Stella to the flower.  

    It's adhered over a pretty Encircled in Beauty Navy die-cut. 

    This next card was created by Tracey using the same Blessings of Home bundle.  

    She used 3 different designer papers here – Heart & Home, Hand-Penned & the In Color 6 X 6" prints. I love how our colors & products coordinate so effortlessly.  Our color coordination is what brought me to Stampin' Up! and keeps me happy to stay. 

    Details:

    • She stamped her flower image in Basic Gray ink and colored it in with Blends markers. It's fussy cut with the coordinating die-cut. 
    • She heat embossed her greeting with White embossing powder onto Designer Paper.  What a gorgeous card and a neat layout. 
    • The White CS behind the flower is textured with our new Gingham embossing folder seen here

  • 3 unique Honeybee Home card ideas


    This week I'm featuring cards made by my talented Flowerbug's Team. Today both cards showcase the Honeybee Home bundle seen here.

    This first card was made by Candace.  She is a master at coloring & sponging as you can see. 

    She stamped & die-cut the floral image multiple times for a pretty bouquet and adhered them to her beautiful sponged background.  The gorgeous sky background is done with Pacific Point ink and a very light hand at sponging. She colored the flowers with watercolor pencils.  

    You can see this pretty bundle here online.

    Next is a totally different card made by Annette for our Monochromatic swap this month.  

    She stamped the bee and greeting in Crumb Cake ink onto a Stitched Rectangle die-cut.  Then added a few die-cuts from the Honeybee Blooms dies and layered it on a Crumb Cake layer. Simply beautiful! 

    ~~~

    Mary made this next card with this same bundle along with the Heart & Home designer paper.

    She used 3 layers of this pretty paper as a background for her dies & greeting.  Great idea! 


    Her colors are Pale Papaya & Garden Green. The White greeting tag is one of my favorite 'go to' punches called the Tailored Tag punch. 

    Measurements:

    • White card base 5 1/2" X 8 1/2"
    • Pale Papaya 3 3/4" X 5"
    • DSP layers 1 1/2" X 3 1/2"
