Last of the amazing swaps by my Flowerbug’s Team; Black & White with a ‘pop’ of color!


Today's post features the rest of the Team swaps.  Our theme was Black & White with a 'POP' of color.  I love this theme so much; adding a bit of Black on a card provides a wonderful contrast to other colors and attracts the eye. 

The first card was made by Candace; she used the Kite Delight stamp set along with Highland Heather, Granny Apple Green & So Saffron.  See the set here. 

She stamped her background and then stamped and fussy cut the kits separately to pop them up on the card.  Her greeting is heat embossed with White embossing powder on the Black CS strip.  Beautiful! 

Tammi made the next one featuring the happy color combo of Magenta Madness & a bit of Granny Apple Green.  

The stamped images are from Hello Ladybug; after stamping on the die-cut scalloped circle she used the Tasteful Textile embossing folder.

The Black & White patterned paper is from the Pattern Party DSP – a host paper you can get FREE with host benefits.  Once your order goes over the $150 mark you can choose free product!  This amazing pack of paper has 40 12 X 12" sheets and is just $18. See it here. 

Marilyn made this pretty card using Daffodil Delight.  

She die-cut the flower 'window' from the White 'Stitched So Sweetly' die-cut (largest one in the set) to reveal the dotted designer paper underneath.  This die is from the Meadow dies seen here.  The polka dot DSP is also Pattern Party host paper.

She colored the white seam binding ribbon yellow with a Daffodil Blends marker. Her greeting is from the Sharing Sunshine stamp set. 

The greeting is on a 'Stitched So Sweetly' die-cut too.  These dies are retiring!  I'm so sad; they are one of my favorite 'go to' dies for labels and layers.  See them here. 

Next is a fun fold card made by Jacki using a striking pop of Red for this wedding card. 

The greeting is from the Celebrating You stamp set in the Jan-June mini catalog; see it here.  Again her DSP is the host Pattern Party; can you tell we love this pack!!?  The hearts are both punches in the Annual Catalog.  They are returning in the new annual catalog.  

Her measurements are:

  • Black card base 5 1/2" X 11", scored at 1 1/4", 3 3/8", 7 5/8" & 9 3/4"
  • DSP front dots – 2 pieces at 1" X 5 1/4", front hatch design – 2 pieces at 1 3/4" X 5 1/4"
  • White layers under dots – 2 pieces 1 1/8" X 5 3/8", under hatch design – 2 pieces at 1 7/8" X 5 3/8", White inside 4" X 5 1/4"
  • Black belly band 1" X 9 1/2" 

Next is a Tracey's card featuring the pretty In Color of Polished Pink. 

She used the Artistic dies for the beautiful Black die-cut. She stamped images from the Artistically Inked stamp set under the die-cuts for a neat watercolor look.  The stamp & dies will be returning in the new catalog but they will not be in a bundle at 10% off then.  

Her White layer is textured with the Gingham embossing folder from the Jan-June mini catalog; see it here.

  • Noel Tidings fun fold Christmas card with video & free project sheet


    Here’s the card I shared on last week’s video; it’s one I made for a long distance card swap I joined.

    It features the Neutral Noel suite seen here. I used the Noel Tidings bundle along with the Neutral Noel specialty designer paper seen here. My colors include Shaded Spruce, White and Gold.

    Notice the textures on the Shaded Spruce and White layers. These are new embossing folders from the 2026 Holiday catalog; however both are unavailable right now. They’re out of stock but returning later this month.

    *Remember that when you want to know when something is back in stock you can opt in to be notified; this is right on the product item page online. See the Rustic Check folder here and the Softly Woven folder here.

    This card opens in a unique way; the center panel is attached to the right side instead of the usual left side. It’s fun to switch things up now & then.

    I stamped the pine boughs and the greetings using the Noel Tidings stamp set; the dies coordinate with many of the images. See the bundle here.

    I shared how to make this card on last week’s video. You can see it here or click on the link below.

    I also created a free project sheet with measurements. Click here to download or print it. *Remember that I have a bunch of these free project sheets stored on my blog here.

    Below is the video tutorial for this card. You’ll get a few stamping tips from me as usual.

    I still have spots left in my Holiday designer paper share. Opt in for it here; it’s the last share I’ll offer this year.
