Amazing, Fun & Easy Center-Fold card video!


We made several neat Center Flap cards on this week's Live (right here) at 7:30 pm CT. Here's my monthly FB Live schedule:
 
 
Tonight is the 4th Monday so we're stamping at 7:30 pm CT here on my FB page.  The cards are a unique Center Flap fold and SO EASY! This fold also shows off your pretty designer paper beautifully. 
 
Prep your pieces to make some.
You'll need:
  • Card stock: one piece 4 1/4" X 5 1/2", one at 3" X 5 1/2" and one 1" X 4 3/4" for flap & a neutral piece for the inside greeting at 2 3/4" X 4"
  • Designer paper: 1 piece 4" X 5 1/4" and 1 at 2 3/4" X 5 1/4"
  • A large label (punched or die-cut) for the greeting
  • Ink, a greeting image, gems & ribbon to match
The black & white card is made with the Beautifully Penned designer paper in the Sale-a-Bration catalog.  This pretty black & white paper is 12 X 12 and only available through Thursday, Sept 30th.  It's free with a $50 order here. 
 
I used the Thinking, Thanks & Peace stamp set for the front and the Heartfelt Wishes for inside.  The die-cut is from the Stitched So Sweetly seen here.  
 
It's such a great time to order those items you've been wanting since you get something free with each $50-100 you spend!  FREE is everyone's favorite thing!  Shop here. 
Plus if you spend $50 in September you get a stack of 10 hand made cards from me as a thank you.  *see below.

  • Three more background ideas on these Team swap cards


    Our Flowerbug's Team card swap theme was to create our own backgrounds.  I shared three cards yesterday and here are three more:

    Yellow is the underlying color on each of these swaps which is a perfect color for summertime. First is a pretty card in a blue & yellow combo by Candy.  

    She stamped the Timeless Tile background stamp and then textured it with an embossing folder.  She also used the Bottled Happiness stamp set. Her colors include Misty Moonlight & Daffodil Delight.  Such a beautiful card!

    ~~~

    Next is a card made by Jacki with the Hello Ladybug stamp set & Ladybug Builder punch.

    She stamped her background with the daisy image in the stamp set, heat embossing it with White embossing powder.  It sure pops on the Black card stock!  She added Daffodil Delight & White card stock for a poppin' color combo.

    I LOVE her bumble bee!  She used the punch for the body (adding Daffodil Delight strips to the Black body) and the wings are punched from Window Sheets.  So clever and fun. 

    ~~~

    Next is another pretty card made by Paula. She featured the Petal Park, Two-Tone Flora and Timeless Arrangements stamp sets. 

    Her colors include Daffodil Delight, Black, White & Old Olive, stamped off.  She added a few Brass Butterflies and our Black & White gingham ribbon.  

    I'll share the rest of our swaps next week.  Have a great weekend!

  • 3 unique techniques on these pretty swap cards


    I'll be sharing our July Flowerbug Team swaps this week and next.  Our theme was to create our own backgrounds.  They came up with some amazing ideas.  I absolutely LOVE seeing their creativity and style.  

    First is a monochromatic card by Annette. I bet you'll never guess how she did this special background…..

    She used Orchid Oasis and Boho Blue ink spots and dragged the ink across her white card stock. One color in each direction.  I was shocked at how pretty and evenly colored it is. I think it looks like denim. It's the perfect way to highlight the pretty die-cut. I'm going to try this myself soon! 

    Her greeting is heat embossed with White embossing powder on a die-cut from this bundle.  

    She used the Wonderful Thoughts bundle seen here.

    Next is a pretty card that Monica made with the Color & Contour stamp set & Scalloped Contour dies. 

    She created a blended and masked background using Orchid Oasis and Daffodil Delight.  She added a bit of Pool Party on the flower and the card base too.  I love these colors together! 

    ~~~

    And lastly today is a unique technique by Lori. I'm not sure I've done this one! Can you guess how she did it….?  

    She first scored her White card stock about 1" apart, on the diagonal. Then she folded the card stock on each score line and sponged Balmy Blue ink on each fold.  I know I've never done this one; at least in my memory I haven't.  So cool and very precise too!  

    She used the Circle Sayings bundle for her greeting & punch. The bird is water-colored with our watercolor pencils. 

    She used the new Bird's Eye View stamp set seen here.  She also stamped her envelope.  

    Stop back in for more Team swaps tomorrow!
