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"

  • Positive Thoughts; This or That?


    I made two versions of this card; one for a swap and another for a card class. Which do you prefer?


     Purple Posy on the left and Petal Pink on the right. 

    Both card bases are Gray Granite.  See the Positive Thoughts stamp set here.  And the coordinating Nature's Thoughts dies here. Buy both and earn a free Sale-a-Bration choice with your $50 order! 


    I did have trouble getting a good photo of the actual colors on this one.  I added Petal Pink/Champagne ribbon and Champagne rhinestones to this one. I cannot resist adding these when I can.  They're beautiful!

  • Pleased as Punch fun fold card


    I made this card for a recent online swap I participated in.  I believe this type of fold is called a 'Joy Fold' card. 

    The Pool Party piece is folded in half; the bottom part is under the front flap of the White layer.  See measurements below.

    I chose to use the brand new Pleased as Punch designer paper seen here.  It coordinates with FOUR of our current punches – amazing!  The two hearts on this card are punched directly from the designer paper. 

    I love it so much I am featuring it for my February card kit to go.  I'll share that with you tomorrow. 

    Details:

    • The hearts are punched from the DSP with the Heart Punch Pack
    • The ribbon is the White seam binding on page 25 of the January – June Mini catalog
    • the sequins are from the free SAB Metallic Baker's Twine & Sequins combo pack seen here
    • the embossing folder is the Coastal Weave 3D embossing folder seen here

    Measurements:

    • White – 4 1/4" X 8 1/2" scored at 5 1/2"
    • Pool Party 3" X 8 1/2" scored at 4 1/4"
    • So Saffron 2 1/4" X 3 1/2"
    • Pleased as Punch DSP 1/4" X 3 1/2"
