Gorgeous Blackberry Beauty card swaps

Happy Thanksgiving!!  I hope you have a wonderful day filled with good food, friends and family.

Thanksgiving Save

There really isn't a better word for the Blackberry Beauty specialty designer paper.  Gorgeous just fits.  

Today I'm sharing two fabulous card ideas made by two of my Flowerbug Team members. 

First is Annette's pretty card.  I think my favorite thing is how she made the amazing designer paper the star of the card.  You don't need to add much to make a card shine with this Blackberry Beauty paper!  See it here. 

Nov Annette Blackberry Beauty Save

She added a stitched rectangle die-cut in Blackberry Bliss for her greeting, heat embossing it with Gold embossing powder. That thinner strip of Gold foil brings your focus back to the greeting.  I love the 3 Elegant Faceted gems on the left too. 

Next is a neat fun fold card made by Brenda.  

Nov Annette Blackberry Beauty Save

She trimmed off 1 1/4" off the right edge of the card base and textured it with the Pretty Flowers embossing folder.  Then she adhered it back onto the 'inside' of the card. 

I like how she layered the greeting strip with another piece of this designer paper.  Look at the added detail of the thin strip of Brushed Gold paper.

  • Save time on finishing the inside of your cards with this trick!

    I’m excited to share these stunning snowflake cards with you today. We made them at my card clubs in December.
    Living in North Dakota, we usually see a lot of snow in the winter so these cards are great for many occasions.

    I used the Snowflake Kisses bundle seen here. It’s filled with wonderful greeting images and lots of snowflake dies.

    My colors include Pretty Peacock with Cloud Cover and Gorgeous Grape with Fresh Freesia. I think blues & purples are perfect for snowflakes. We used a blending brush to add more color to the large snowflake die-cut.

    Save

    After creating the cards above I thought I’d try combining the colors on the large die-cut.

    Save

    Isn’t that pretty? I just love combining Gorgeous Grape with Pretty Peacock on the Fresh Freesia die-cut. Blending Brushes make this a breeze!

    Look how we finished the inside.

    I wanted to add snowflakes to the inside of the card but didn’t want to die-cut tons of them for my club gals. So I came up with creating a snowflake stencil.
    I cut multiple snowflakes from a piece of card stock and we used Blending Brushes to add pretty snowflakes to our White layer. I truly love the effect it gives.

    If you’d like the free project sheet for this card click here. You can download or print it.

    See how this card is made in the video below. I also shared a second Snowflake Kisses fun fold card.

  • The new Swirled Designs bundle is super fun!

    I had to point you to the new Swirled Designs bundle in our newest Online Exclusives release. It has the neatest sets of dies and stamps in it!

    Save

    See what I mean? The extra layers on the dies make them super playful and the stamps will be great for stamping backgrounds. Basic shapes like ovals and stars are something we’ll always use for multiple occasions.

    Look closer at this card made by Stampin’ Up! I love when we get new product that’s unique and we haven’t seen before.

    Save

    See what I mean? You can use the stamps to add the details to the inside of the die-cut shapes like above. I just love this card! See this bundle here.

  • The Branching Out bundle is retiring! Check out this fun fold card with video tutorial!

    We made this card earlier this fall and I realize I haven’t shared it with you yet. I also made a video too – scroll down….

    Save

    The colors include Pecan Pie with Crumb Cake, Early Espresso & Shaded Spruce. I used various wood-like designer series papers for the side panel. See how it has a double fold?

    Also notice the ‘white’ snow on the pine boughs plus snow in the background. You can achieve that without heat embossing. We used White Craft ink and stamped over the pine. Easy & a fun accent!

    Save

    The stamp set is retiring but the dies are not. The bundle is on the last chance list now. Click here to see it.
    It’s been one of my favorite products in our Holiday catalog this year. It’s timeless and can be used for fall, winter or Christmas!

    Besides the video tutorial here’s a free project sheet for you too. Click here to download or print it.

    I’m glad the dies are not retiring but I have to say the stamp set is among my top 5 favorites!

    Below is the video tutorial which gives you tips on stamping the branches with the pines and pine cones.
