Gorgeous Blackberry Beauty card swaps

November 25, 2021

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.

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.

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.

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

Terrific Toadstools fancy fold card

January 17, 2025
Today I'm sharing a fabulous fancy fold card Lori made for our Team Sale-a-Bration card swap. She used the Terrific Toadstools bundle.

Save

It's a little deceptive but it is a fun fold card; one I haven't seen before too! Her colors include Melon Mambo, Fresh Freesia, Early Espresso and Granny Apple Green.

The Terrific Toadstools bundle from the Spring catalog coordinates with the Toadstool Gardens DSP from the Sale-a-Bration catalog. This DSP is free with any $60 purchase from Stampin' Up.

Save

She used a bunch of NEW products; here's the list:
- Terrific Toadstool bundle seen here
- Toadstool Gardens 6 X 6" DSP from the Sale-a-Bration catalog seen here
- Spotlight on Nature dies seen here
- Fresh Freesia seam binding ribbon (SAB catalog) seen here
- Starstruck embossing folder on the upper flap (SAB catalog) seen here
- Save
Below you can see the gatefold and the cute flap that folds down over the front. She created an amazing card showcasing a ton of new products here! See measurements below.

Save

Measurements:
- Card base 8 1/2" X 5 1/2" scored at 2 1/8" from each side
- DSP – 1 7/8" X 5 3/8" for front and inside

Corners in Bloom fun fold card

January 16, 2025

I made this card for our monthly team swap using the Corners in Bloom stamp set.

Save

I colored the flowers in with Blends markers in Melon Mambo, Peach Pie & Granny Apple Green. The pretty greeting and die-cut are from the Mixed Labels bundle seen here.

I added the new Bloom Impressions designer paper on the left side; a free choice with a $60 order during Sale-a-Bration.

Save

This pretty Corners in Bloom stamp set is also free during SAB (Sale-a-Bration) – with any $120 order. There are lots of choices you can earn free through February 28th.

Save

We haven't had many corner shaped stamps for a long time and now we have two! I love the many options you have with these line art stamps.

Save

My colors include Peach Pie with Melon Mambo & Black. This fun fold is called a 'Joy' fold where the two flaps overlap each other. It was perfect for this stamped frame.
