This is Poppy Parade, Black & White.
The other items I used are the Nature’s Symphony bundle, the Perennial Postage and Springtime Scenes dies (flower).

The front left flap opens like this:

Then you open the right side and fold the left in and this is what you see:

I fussy cut a flower from the designer paper to add inside. The Black die-cut leaves are both from the Nature’s Symphony dies.

• Love Cats video tutorial with an easy but unique fun fold

  March 15, 2023

  We made this CUTE card at my February card clubs.  It really shows off the Love Cats stamp set seen here.

  I shared it on my FB Live yesterday (see video below). It's sort of a unique fold in that the card base is a quarter sheet and the Sweet Sorbet is smaller and opens; see?

  In order to get full, solid images I used the Stamparatus for the cats.  It makes a world of difference!  *Catch the tips in the video below.

  The class includes the Perfect Pomegranate stamp set and 6 pre-cut cards kit with the PDF tutorial too.  This stamp set was a Sale-a-Bration bonus last year and I accumulated a few extra. This offer is while supplies last so don't wait too long to order.

  This gift will be mailed to those who place a $55 minimum online order using a current host code. TMJXFR2T or BFE4C2KM

   

  To complete the cards as shown you'll need a few ink colors, adhesives and greeting images. 

   

  Two of the three designs are fun folds; one is a recent favorite called a Floating Panel card.  I think the color combos are so pretty: 

  • Fresh Freesia with Old Olive & Sahara Sand
  • Old Olive with Starry Sky
  • Blackberry Bliss with Mossy Meadow

• Multiple amazing ‘WOW’ cards featuring the Legendary Ride bundle!

  March 13, 2023

  ---

  Each month in our Flowerbug's Team a member is featured as 'Artist of the Month' and shows off a bundle or suite of projects.  In February it was Jane and she chose to use the Legendary Ride bundle.  She did an amazing and creative group of cards!

  Take a look at these incredible samples:

  Do you see the orange racks holding up the bike?  She used the 'seat' dies to create it.  She also sponged on them a bit so they were 'well used'!  Ha!  

  The background with clouds and the checkered bottom are all from the Ready to Ride DSP.  Look at the detail on her motorcycle!  The dies are incredibly detailed. 

  This next card is a center step card.  It also features multiple pieces of the Ready to Ride designer paper. It's hard to see in the photo but she die-cut the seat from the Black foil in the DSP.

  She sure made the most of this unique Legendary Ride bundle by Stampin' Up!  You can see it here online.

  This next card features a pocket greeting on the front. You can pull it up and remove it to use as a bookmark. She textured the front panel with the Metal Plate 3D embossing folder seen here.  Perfect texture for this guy card.  

  
  
  
  
  Save
  

  She added color to the Ready to Ride floral paper above using a Sweet Sorbet Blends marker. She really showed off this unique designer paper on her projects.  I LOVE the shiny black foil accents.  See it here.

  Next is a great guy birthday card that doesn't feature a motorcycle at all. She added elements from the He's the Man DSP in the Annual Caalog.  

  
  
  
  
  Save
  

  And last is this neat card with a road map and bike tread with a more colorful bike.  See the Adhesive Backed studs on the upper corners?  They pair wonderful with this suite.  See them here.

  Thanks for sharing your creativity with us Jane! Your creativity & talent is amazing!
