3 FUN ways to use Window Sheets – check out these Team swaps!


Our swap theme for our Flowerbug's Team was to feature either Window Sheets or Vellum on their cards.  The cards were amazing; as usual! 

Today we're focusing on Window Sheets. 

First is a special card made by Lori.  She used the Window Sheet as her card base!  I'm not sure I've ever seen that before…

She used the Cup of Tea bundle and the newest In Colors on her card.  Orchid Oasis, Parakeet Party & Sweet Sorbet.  

She used the Stitched Rectangle dies for her front 'frame'. It measures 3" X 4 3/8" at the largest. She made two frames; one for the front and one for the inside. The die-cut tea cup is also positioned on the front and the back of the front.  

She added a folded White layer inside that opens up.  It's 3 3/8" X 4" folded in half.  

Then on the very back she added a piece of the Tea Boutique DSP that measures 3" X 4 1/4".  Such a unique card!  

~~~

This next card was made by Ginny.  She used the Dandy Designs DSP for her card front.  It's almost monochromatic but there is a bit of Pear Pizzazz and Black too. So pretty!!


She added a window sheet to bridge the upper and lower layers of the card front.  You can see the greeting through the window sheet.  Her greeting and the pretty floral die-cut is from the Framed Florets bundle.  

Measurements:

  • Card base 4 1/4" X 6 3/4" scored at 5 1/2". Lower card stock layer is 4 1/4" X 3".
  • DSP is 4" X 1" and 4" X 2 3/4"
  • Window sheet is 4" X 2 1/4"

~~~

This next card was made by Paula.  She created a window from her DSP layer, adding Window Sheet behind it and a die-cut flower from the Framed Florets bundle in front. 

The Designer Paper is called Design a Daydream; it's in the annual catalog and is a big 48 pack for just $18.  You can earn it once your order is over $150 with host benefits. 

I love her wrap of linen thread with a tiny little bow as accent. 

Measurements:

  • Soft Sea Foam card base 4 1/4" X 11" scored at 5 1/2"
  • Pear Pizzazz 4" X 5 1/4"
  • DSP 3 3/4" X 5"
  • Window sheet 3" for the circle opening which is 2 1/2" 

~~~

Next is a cute & colorful card that really shows off our Window Sheets! 

Jackie made a type of bridge card where the window sheet allows you to see the inside layer from the front.  

She is featuring the Butterfly Kisses suite here – the Butterfly Kisses 6" DSP and the Build a Butterfly dies

Her window sheet is 4 1/4" X 5 1/2" and she textured it with the Raindrops embossing folder from the Spring Catalog.  The lower layers are added to the base. 

Her colors include Calypso Coral, Starry Sky & Crushed Curry. The curvy borders are done with the Seaside Bay dies. Neat effect!  

She added the greeting inside the card with the Double Oval punch seen here; it's a big favorite of mine that I had wished for.  

Measurements:

  • Card base 4 1/4" X 7", scored at 5 1/2".  Second Calypso Coral layer for the bottom front is 4 1/4" X 1 1/2"
  • DSP layers are 3 7/8" X 1"
  • Starry Night layers are 4 1/8" X 1 1/4" 

Stay tuned for more swaps soon!

  • Unique Charming Day fun fold card with video tutorial


    I shared this cool fancy fold card on last week’s Live video.  It looks like an ordinary card at first glance… 

    I colored the main floral image with a Wink of Stella and ink from my ink pads.  Watch the video to see how it’s done.

    I featured the Floral Charm DSP that’s discounted right now during the In Color promotion.  See it here. It’s almost $2 off.  My favorite thing about it is the color coordination. Each pattern has a soft, matching back side.

    I also used the Charming Day bundle that coordinates with the DSP.  See that here. 

    Here’s how the card opens.  I’m calling it a double diagonal center fold card. The center stays in place but the outer triangles lift up and to the outside as shown below. 

    I have a complete project sheet for you with measurements, directions, supplies and photos.  The video tutorial will help you understand how to assemble this card; see it below.  Click on the following link to print or download this project sheet: Download Double Diagonal Center fold cards

    Below is the video tutorial for this card and another super neat fun fold card; both featuring this beautiful paper and Charming Day bundle.

  • These pretty cards are the last of the Monochromatic Team swaps


    I’ve been sharing our Team swaps this week that all feature a Monochromatic theme. This means the colors should include hues of similar colors. 

    First is a pretty and soothing card made by Jacki.   

    She used the Prairie Grass stamp set seen here.  Her colors include Very Vanilla with Crumb Cake.  Her greeting is from the  stamp set seen here.  

    I love how the grass image repeats itself on the Vanilla layer in the background.  

    Measurements:

    • Crumb Cake 8 1/2″ X 5 1/2″ score at 4 1/4″, 3″ X 4 1/4″
    • Vanilla 4″ X 5 1/4″, 2 3/4″ X 4″ 

    ~~~

    Next is a pretty wedding or anniversary card made by Marla.  

    She used the Lifetime of Love stamp set seen here and the coordinating dies seen here.  I love how these delicate dies inlay so perfectly.

    Her colors include Navy, Misty Moonlight, Crumb Cake & White. She also used a new embossing folder called Jolly Holly Hybrid seen here.  These leaves allow her to lift them a bit to add more dimension. 

    The Designer paper is 2 5/8″ wide and is the Country Lace pack and is discounted and on the Last Chance list now.  See it here. 

    ~~~

    And lastly is this soft & pretty card made by Paula. 

    Her card features the blue tones of Blueberry Bushel with Azure Afternoon. Her stamp sets are Elements of Text seen here and Textured Notes seen here. The greeting is from the Label Me Grateful stamp set seen here. 

    I hope you enjoyed seeing the beautiful Monochromatic swaps this week.  I have a super talented team!

  • Two great Fun-fold card swaps today


    Today I’m sharing two more of my Flowerbug Team swaps and both are fun fold layouts.  Our theme was Monochromatic cards and these cards include similar colors.  

    First is Kim’s card featuring the Peace on Earth bundle that’s coming in the new 2025 Holiday catalog in September; just a few weeks away!  The long leaves die-cut is from the Memorable Blooms dies but is now retired.  

    Her colors include Cloud Cover with Pretty Peacock & White.  For the large oval die-cuts she used the Impressions Abloom dies seen here.  The Damask Designs embossing folder was used on the Cloud Cover 2-toned card stock panel. 

    Measurements:

    • card base 11″ X 4 1/4″ score at 2 3/4″ & 5 1/2″
    • 2-toned CS textured panel 2 1/2″ X 4″
    • Peacock inside 5 1/4″ X 4″ 

    Here’s how her card opens:  These doves in this upcoming bundle are so pretty.  Perfect for sympathy, wedding or other events. 

    ~~~

    Next is a cute card made by Candy featuring the Jar of Joy stamp set seen here.  It coordinates with the Sweet Jar punch seen here. 

    Her colors include Pretty Peacock, Lost Lagoon, Pool Party & White. Embossing folders are So Swirly & Damask Designs. Dies are Nested Essentials and Textured Notes. 

    It’s a neat fun fold card that opens up from each side: 

    She’s calling it a ‘Buckle Fold card’. Here are her measurements:

    • Peacock card base 6 1/2″ X 5 1/2″ score at 2 1/4″, latch strip is 5 1/4″ X 2″ score at 2 3/4″
    • Pool Party 2″ X 5 1/4″
    • Lost Lagoon die-cut 2 3/8″ X 3″
    • White inside 4″ X 5 1/4″,  Textured Notes greeting die-cut

    Tomorrow I’ll share the last of our Monochromatic swaps!
