Hues of Happiness Card Kit to Go or PDF tutorial

I hadn't planned on featuring this designer paper for my May card kit to go but once I received it I had to use it!  If you love florals you will enjoy this card kit!  

Save

Stampin' Up! hit a home run with this paper!  It's filled with a beautiful variety of florals and ombre backgrounds.  

Save

I created 10 cards using color combinations in the DSP; many of which are fun fold designs. I used the Happiness Abounds stamp set for my greetings and a few extra accents inside.

You have a few choices if you're interested in this kit.  I have the PDF tutorial only, the pre-cut kit to go with the tutorial and you can also add on the stamp set or bundle with the pre-cut kit so you have it all!  

The PDF tutorial is emailed immediately after payment and the kit is sent out via Priority Mail at the end of May. 

**This is the kit my monthly subscribers will receive. If you'd like to get a pre-cut kit filled with product AND a free PDF tutorial each month contact me here.

  Annette created this one with the Earthen Elegance designer paper and Nature's Prints stamp set. 

  Save

  It's gorgeous in our new Pecan Pie color with Very Vanilla.  There's just something about monochromatic cards! 

  Measurements:

  • Vanilla 2 1/2" X 4" and 4" X 5 1/4"
  • Designer paper 2" X 5 1/4"

  Next is Paula's card; it's a fun fold card featuring the Inked Botanicals designer paper. It's another monochromatic card! She folded back her front card base to show off the designer paper on the inside.

  She used the Darling Details bundle for her greeting, flowers & leaves. The greeting die-cut is made with the new Nested Essentials dies.

• Designer Paper swap card ideas by my Team

  June 23, 2023

  ---

  I have more Team swaps to share with you today.  Our theme for June was to feature designer series paper. 

  *Remember our designer papers are all discounted in June! It's a great time to grab the packs you want.  *see them all here

  First up is a gorgeous card made by Ginny featuring the Masterfully Made DSP seen here.  

  Save

  She also used the coordinating bundle called Gorgeously Made seen here.  Her colors include Night of Navy, Pretty Peacock, Bubble Bath and a bit of vellum.  The greeting, leaves and torn notebook edge are all dies in this bundle.  

  Next is a pretty birthday card made by Sharon.  She featured the Bright & Beautiful DSP seen here.  

  Save

  She also used the Gold Celebrations 12 X 12 specialty paper too. See the confetti gold acetone on the blue balloon?  She also added a few dies and embossing folders as well. Natural Prints dies for the greeting and the Countryside Corners dies for the Misty Moonlight & Berry Burst die-cuts, the Basics 3D (online exclusive) and Cane Weave 3D folders 

  I'll share the rest of this month's swaps tomorrow.

• Neat Fun Fold swaps by my Flowerbug’s Team

  June 22, 2023

  ---

  Our Team gathering and swap was this past weekend and our theme was to use designer paper.  

  This first card was made by Marla and features the Countryside Inn DSP.  

  Save

  It looks like an ordinary gatefold card, but it's not!  It latches closed with the heart & leaf punches on the right side! 

  Measurements are as follows:

  • Card base 4 1/4" X 11" scored at 3" and 8 1/2"
  • Designer paper is 2 3/4" X 4" on the left and 2 1/4" X 4" on the right.  *same on the inside

  Save

  It's hard to tell in the photo but the top right corner of the large, layered die-cut catches under the punched pieces on the upper right of the card base.  So cool and smart!  I love it when a fun fold card stays closed easily.  

  She featured the Countryside Inn designer paper seen here.  If you love blues, you need this pretty paper! And it's on sale in June – down from $12.50 to $10.62 now.   

  She also added more of the pretty paper inside her card.  

  Save

  Next is a sweet card by Candy – (see what I did there?)  She featured the Zoo Crew designer paper and Zany Zoo bundle. She colored each of those flowers with a Blends marker! 

  Save

  It's a 'book-binding' card fold.  Start out with a 4 1/4" X 11" card base; score at 4 1/4" & 5 1/2". You'll adhere the 'binding' area down so the card opens at the 4 1/4" score line.  

  Her coloring is beautiful; I believe she used Blends markers.  

  The embossing folder is the Countryside Blossoms and the stitched circles and banner are from the Stylish Shapes dies. 

  I'll share more team swaps tomorrow!
