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.

    I've been sharing projects Annette made as part of my Team's Artist of the Month series.  My Flowerbug's team members have a chance to opt in to create projects featuring a stamp set or bundle they choose.  They get to keep the product for creating project for our group.  

    She chose the Bewitching Bundle from our 2022 Holiday catalog seen here. 

    She made a slimline card from Gray Granite cardstock and added three of our newest In colors.

    She stamped each one in Black Memento ink and colored each one with Blends markers.  They're popped up on stitched White squares from the Stylish Shapes dies.  

    She also added trim from the Silver Mesh ribbon.  Love the spiders hanging in each frame!  

    ~~~

    Next up is a sweet treat bag with Starry Sky.  You can find these bags in our 2022 Holiday catalog on page 35. These bags have star cutouts that make it easy to add color by inserting a piece of paper behind.  Here she added some 2022-24 In Color glimmer paper.  

    She tied the bag closed with Silver Mesh and 1/8" Starry Sky metallic ribbons.  Love the many rhinestones on the hat!

    I hope you enjoyed all of her projects. If you missed them, click on the heading of this blog and scroll back to see each one.

    She showcased the Bewitching bundle wonderfully!!

  • Amazing Bewitching Bundle projects; WOW!


    I previously shared some of the incredible projects Annette made here and here  She was our Artist of the Month in August; as part of my Flowerbug's Team.  Each month we have a featured artist that showcases a stamp set or bundle.  She chose to use the Bewitching bundle seen here. 

    First is a card that reminds you of  'candy corn'.  

    Details:

    • She used Pumpkin Pie, Crushed Curry & White CS – texturing them with the Timeworn Type 3D folder.  
    • The scalloped square is from the Scalloped Contours dies. She colored in the hat & boots with Blends markers.  
    • The greeting is from the Best Witches stamp set. 
    • The glittery hat band is the new Glitter Washi tape seen here

    ~~~

    Next is a fun card made with Parakeet Party, Black & White. 

    Black & White with a 'pop' of color can be so striking!  The circles are from the Layering circles dies; the stitched background is from the Stitched with Whimsy dies.  She added a band of glitter paper on the hat – from the 2022-24 In Color 6" Glimmer paper.  

    ~~~

    And lastly today is another Black & White with a pop of color – this time with Real Red. 

    Details:

    • Painted Texture is the embossing folder used on the White panel. 
    • The Black & White DSP is from the Black & White Designers DSP in the Holiday catalog
    • She colored the hat with Blends markers and popped it up with dimensionals.  
    • I love the knot of Silver Mesh ribbon on the hat!!

  • Bewitching Teepee Fun Fold card!


    I've shared lots of amazing projects Annette made with the Bewitching bundle here . She was our Artist of the Month in August as part of my Flowerbug's Team.  Each month we have a featured artist that showcases a stamp set or bundle.  She used the Bewitching bundle seen here. 

    Today is a fun fold card called a Teepee card.  It looks difficult to make but it's sure not!  In fact her card inspired me to make one myself.  You can see the video here.  

    She used the Tea Boutique designer paper and the Stylish Shapes & Layering Circles dies for the circles.

    Creating this unique fun fold card starts with three squares measuring 4".  You'll score each one in half on the diagonal.  The designer paper is two 3 3/4" squares that you cut in half diagonally.  Watch the video here or scroll down below to see how it's done.  

     

    This card is held closed with a small bit of Velcro.  The greeting is from the Best Witches stamp set seen here.  It folds flat for mailing and fits in a standard A2 size envelope. 

    The inside is made of one 3 3/4" white square also cut in half on the diagonal.  

    Love these boots!  This and the hats are all from the Bewitching stamp set.  Get the stamp set & Witch punch in a bundle at 10% off here.
