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.

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.

Blackberry Bliss card base 5 1/2" X 8 1/2" scored at 4 1/4". Trim off 1 1/4" off the edge

You are Remarkable fun fold card with the new Botanical Textures DSP & Arches dies

March 11, 2025

I shared this card on last week's FB Live. I made it for an online card swap. I just love it!

Save

It's a simple fold back card with the Arches dies and the new You Are remarkable stamp set. Here's what it looks like opened: I love the double Arches dies here! These dies are in low inventory AGAIN. See them here.

Save

The You Are Remarkable stamp set (seen here) is both a 2-step stamp and a Distinktive set which means you get multiple hues of ink with one stamping. I like that you can stamp the flower and leaves separately in different color inks from the single outline stamp. Note the inside flower image above that I stamped without the outline. I like it just as well this way too!

You are Remarkable card in a clean & simple style with video & free project sheet

March 10, 2025

I created this pretty card with the new 'You Are Remarkable' stamp set from our Online Exclusive offering.

Save

I was going for a clean & simple look since that's our March Team swap theme. I just received this pretty stamp set and love the 2-step & distinktive set a lot! See this stamp set here.

My colors include Black, White, Fresh Freesia and Lemon Lime Twist for the leaves. The embossing folder is called Dashing Designs and is from the Annual Catalog.

I also used the new Textured Notes dies for the stitched rectangles. These are incredible! See them here:

On the video I changed the card a bit from the original on the left. Which do you prefer? How many differences can you spot?

It's a super neat fun fold with two opening flaps.

Here are the measurements:
- card base 5 1/2" X 8 1/2" scored at 4 1/4". Cut off the upper left flap diagonally.
- second flap 8 1/2" X 3 1/4" scored at 4 1/4"
- two pieces of DSP 5 1/4" X 4", one cut in half diagonally.

Some of my favorite things about this card are the circle greetings, the die-cut vellum flowers, the little bees and the bright & springy colors. Thanks for creating this incredible card Paula!
