Gorgeous Petals of Beauty fun fold card with video

This pretty card was a big favorite of my club gals in March.

Save

It features the Brushed with Beauty suite which includes many items that are now on the Last Chance list!
The Petals of Beauty bundle was used mostly for the stamped images and die-cuts. See it here.

My card base is Very Vanilla with the following additional colors: Mossy Meadow, Petal Pink, Darling Duckling.

Look at the airy Vanilla flower petal die-cuts above. They are not meant to match which I love!

You cannot tell but there is a window sheet sandwiched between the top and bottom layers. It adds a bit of surprise to the card. The rounded leaf die-cut is cut from the new Wood Grain Wonders 12 X 12″ specialty paper seen here. It has a very faint wood grain to each sheet in all wood tones. I added a bit of Mossy Meadow ink to the one on the right above.

I added designer paper to the inside layers as well; all from the Brushed with Beauty DSP seen here.

• Wow Team swaps for a fun Coaster Calendar!

  November 21, 2024

  ---

  This month my Flowerbug's Team decided to do a Coaster Calendar swap.  This was super fun and quite easy when you could make multiples of the month you chose.  I do love swapping! 

  We could use retired or current products on these swaps which opened up a lot of possibilities for creativity! 

  The first group are January through June:

  
  
  
  
  Save
  

  This next group is July through December:

  
  
  
  
  Save
  

  They're all 4" square and the layer for the printed calendars (which haven't been added yet here) are 2 1/4" square. We punch holes in the top of each and add two 4" card board coasters to the front and the back for stability. *these were purchased online years ago. The printed calendar was created by my husband and I cut it up into 2" squares. 

  Here's how I decorated the front of mine:  I kept it quite simple; a 4" square piece of Winter Meadow DSP along with a die-cut and the year cut out with number dies.  I trimmed the corners to match the coaster.

  Here's the next group of swaps; some are the same as those above since a few people did multiple groups of the same month. 

  These are January through June:

  Each one is fabulous!  I love seeing everyone's personal style.

• More swaps from my talented Demo friends

  November 20, 2024

  I have a few more swaps to share with you today.  These are all from our newest Online Exclusive products. 

  First up is a pretty floral card from Susan Campfield. She used the Happy Hibiscus bundle. 

  
  
  
  
  Save
  

  This bundle includes a Hybrid embossing folder that includes dies that coordinate with the folder!  It's so cool. You can see it here in my store. 

  In the photo below you can see the die-cut images that are textured. This is done when the die is inserted into the embossing folder with the card stock.  Yes; it is incredible!

  The next few cards feature the Marbled Elegance suite: 

  This first pretty card is made by Natalie Travis who made the focus of her card that gorgeous golden stitched heart. 

  
  
  
  
  Save
  

  That pretty heart is die-cut with the Hearts of Elegance dies from our new Brushed Metallic paper in both Gold & Silver. See that here. 

  Her measurements are simple – the DSP is 4" X 3", a strip of Cherry Cobbler is 4 1/4" X 5/8" on a Pretty in Pink card base. 

  Next is a gorgeous card made by Sandy Carlson:

  Her colors are Melon Mambo with White and the same beautiful Marbled Elegance specialty DSP. She also used the new Hearts of Elegance bundle seen here.
