Gorgeous Blackberry Beauty card swaps


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


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. 

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.  

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.  

Measurements: 

  • Blackberry Bliss card base 5 1/2" X 8 1/2" scored at 4 1/4".  Trim off 1 1/4" off the edge
  • DSP 5" X 2 1/2", 1" X 4 1/4" strip 
  • Cinnamon Cider 3" X 2 3/4", 3/4" X 4" greeting strip 
  • inside piece 2 1/3" X 4 3/4"
  • Gold strip 1/4" X 5 1/2"

  • Double-Decker fun fold card with video tutorial and free project sheet


    Here's the second card we made at my September card clubs. It's a 'Double-Decker' fun fold card. 

    It features the pretty All About Autumn specialty paper that is so popular it's been hard to keep in stock! It should be back around the middle of October.  See it here.  

    For the circle die-cuts I chose to use both Stylish Shapes for the Vanilla circles and Deckled circle dies for the Early Espresso circle.  The die-cuts in Vanilla & Copper Clay are from the Magical Meadow dies.

    The greetings are from one of my favorite stamp sets in the Holiday catalog – So Sincere.  

    Here's the free project sheet for you: Download Sept '23 Double Decker card

    A double-decker card is where the center layer is popped up by a small box attached to the inside, back of the card like this.

    You need to adhere the back layer before adding this box. Then you top it with your center layer; for my version it's a piece of designer paper.

    I added a second circle to the inside designer paper layer for signing.  But one of my smart customers thought of adding it to the back so it doesn't cover up any of the pretty paper. A great idea!

  • A Stunning fall card with Gorgeous Garden; with a video tutorial and free project sheet!


    Check out this fabulous, colorful autumn card we made at my September card clubs!  

    We added fall colors to the die-cut using Blending brushes. 

    This die-cut is in the Gorgeous Garden dies seen here.  This is the leaves die and there is also a floral option as shown below. 

    **Check out these other projects featuring these dies – here and here.

    If you're interested in these dies now is a great time to purchase them.  Add on another item or two and you'll qualify to receive a Mystery Box from me!  *see details below

    The card base is Vanilla as well as the die-cut.  Ink colors include: Cherry Cobbler, Old Olive, Pumpkin Pie and Wild Wheat.

    We started with the two darkest colors – Cherry Cobbler and Old Olive, adding a few splotches of color leaving many open areas for the remaining two colors. I prefer to add the lightest color of Wild Wheat last, so it can fill in any open areas without covering up the previous colors. 

    Watch the video here or scroll down to see it below.  

    The stamps & leaf die-cuts are from the Autumn Leaves bundle seen here.  It's a big favorite of mine this season.  

    The die-cut is almost the entire card front except for a thin edge. I added a strip of Cherry Cobbler to the left side. The greeting is stamped on a Tailored Tags die-cut. The leaves are from both foil and Oxidized Copper papers.  *The Oxidized Copper paper is back in stock!

    Below is the video tutorial for this card; and another autumn-themed fun fold card as well.
