Butterfly wobble & Bokeh technique with video!

I'm excited to share one of my March Club cards with you.  This background is called the Bokeh technique. 

March Club Brilliant Wings Bokeh Save

Sponging a background is a big favorite of mine and when you add the Bokeh technique to it you get magic! I created my own dotted mask by punching a bunch of circles from a piece of card stock.  

We made these cards at my March card clubs and they loved it!  I used the Vine Design stamp set as well as the Happy Thoughts set; both are retiring and on the Last Chance list here.  

Measurements:

  • Pacific Point 4 1/4" X 11" scored at 5 1/2"
    White sponged layer 3 3/4" X 5"
    White layer (under sponged layer) 3 7/8" X 5 1/8"
    White inside 3 1/2" X 4 3/4"
    White greeting strip 1/2" X 5"

March Club Brilliant Wings Bokeh Save

I used Pretty Peacock, Pacific Point & Magenta Madness inks as well as the White Craft ink pad for the light colored dots.  You can see the video below.  It's so easy and amazing!

The butterflies are created with the new Brilliant Wing dies seen here. They'll be in the upcoming Annual catalog but are available now too.

Here is the video; I hope you watch it.  This technique is so fun and unique every single time!  Think of the colors you could use!

  • 2nd set of Incredible In Color card swaps by the Flowerbugs

    Yesterday I shared the first set of In Color card swaps by my Flowerbug's Team and today I'm sharing more. 

    The first card is a fun fold card made by Karen A.  This is such an easy fold as it's just adding one score line to your standard card.

    June Nothings better than Karen Save

    She chose to use the Nothing's Better Than stamp set. Her colors include Sweet Sorbet & Parakeet Party with a bit of Early Espresso & Crumb Cake for the greeting & cookies.

    For your card base of 5 1/2" X 8 1/2" score at 1 1/4" and 4 1/4".  The Designer paper is from the In Color prints pack and measure 2 3/4" and 1" X 5 1/4" tall on both the front and inside of the card.  The inside White is 2 3/4" X 5 1/4". 

    Her front greeting elements include the new Decorative Circle punch seen here and the stitched circle die-cut from the Stylish Shapes dies.

    Next up – Annette used the same stamp set; 'Nothing's Better Than'. It coordinates with the Love you More Than dies.  Her colors include Sweet Sorbet and Black with just a bit of Parakeet Party, Tahitian Tide & Orchid Oasis for her coloring.  

    She textured her Sweet Sorbet designer paper with the Timeworn Type embossing folder.

    The tag dies are the Tailor Made Tags dies seen here.  

    Next is a fun fold card made by Marilyn featuring the Cup of Tea bundle.  Her main colors include Starry Sky and Parakeet Party.

    She used the Layering Circles and Stylish Shapes dies for her circle element.  The pretty texture is the Quatrefoil Tile embossing folder seen here.  

    Her measurements are:

    • Card base 5 1/2" X 8 1/2" scored at 2 1/2" & 6 1/2" 
    • DSP  5 1/4" X 2 1/4"

    The last card I'm sharing today was made by Miles & Laura and features the Flowers & Leaves punch and the 6 X 6" In Color designer series paper.  Isn't it fun!?!

  • 1st set of Amazing In Color card swaps!

    Last weekend our Flowerbug's Team met and swapped cards featuring at least 2 in colors.  I can't wait for you to see them all; they're fabulous! 

    This first card was made by Jacki featuring two punches!  The Ladybug Builder and Medium Daisy punch.

    Here in colors include Tahitian Tide, Parakeet Party & Orchid Oasis.  She also used the Painted Texture embossing folder on her White layer.  

    Next is a card made by Mary.  She used the Framed Occasions stamp set in Parakeet Party and Orchid Oasis.

    This stamp set coordinates with the Beautiful Shapes dies.  The Designer paper is the Tea Boutique DSP.  

    Deloris made this vibrant card with the Amazing Year stamp set.  Her in colors include Parakeet Party and Tahitian Tide. 

    June Amazing Year Paula Save

    She used the new Stylish Shapes dies and the Hive 3D embossing folder.  I believe she colored in the image with Blends markers. 

    Lastly is a card made by Tracey; she featured a bunch of the new In Colors along with Crushed Curry.
