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.

  • Gingerbread & Peppermint cards – get the pre-cut kit or the PDF tutorial


    I've been thrilled with the response to my card kits to go lately.  Obviously many of you love pre-cut kits!  Christmas is a great time to get them when many crafters are looking for easy ideas to create their holiday cards quickly. 

    I chose the Gingerbread & Peppermint designer paper this month for its fun, nostalgic designs and traditional colors.  Look at the cards in this kit:

    Most of these cute cards are unique fun folds too.  This designer paper is filled with larger shaped images for cute accents, or use the plaids, stripes, and swirls for candy, backgrounds, or accent pieces. 

    This card kit is available through November 18th & includes the following:

    • 10 pre-cut cards including die-cut & punched pieces. 
    • $20 in product including the Gingerbread & Peppermint DSP & Red Rhinestones.
    • the free PDF tutorial with photos, measurements, directions and supply list

    It does not include stamped images, red ribbon or white twine.  You will need to cut your new Designer paper to finish the cards as shown including fussy cutting some images from the paper. 

    I used Real Red, Old Olive & Early Espresso inks as well as the Frosted Gingerbread & Snowman Season stamp sets.  You can easily substitute other greetings. 

    This kit to go will mail out at the end of November via Priority Mail.

  • Ever Eden; a gorgeous card kit to go!


    Did you see the new Eden's Garden Collection yet?  It's available starting today!  It's a combination of a sneak peak bundle from the upcoming Spring Catalog AND exclusive papers & gems available from November 2nd to January 3rd (while supplies last). You can see it all here.  


    I may be called Flowerbug but my real love is botanicals – trees & leaves.  This collection of products is gorgeous in greens, gold & a bit of Cherry Cobbler and consists of mostly leaves, berries & stems.  I've made sooo many projects with it in the last week; it's truly beautiful.  

    Below are the 10 cards I created using the Ever Eden specialty designer paper; most of them are fancy folds too.  I do like to jazz up a normal card with a bit of interest using fun folds, color combos or unique designs. 

    This pre-kit to go includes 10 pre-cut cards (including punched or die-cut pieces), $20 in product and the PDF tutorial.  It features the Ever Eden specialty paper; beautiful in Evergreen & Succulent & Gold.

    There is a limited quantity of these available.  Order by November 16th.  It will mail out the last week of November via Priority Mail. 

    *Add on the Eden's Garden bundle to this kit and get an additional huge 22 project tutorial FREE and an extra 4 card class!  *message me for this option and pay all at once (Plus get additional gifts seen below)

    You'll receive the 10 card PDF tutorial in an email immediately upon payment. *Check your spam!

    This kit to go includes the following:

    • 10 pre-cut cards; 2 each of 5 designs.  Most are unique folds 
    • 1/2 pkg. Ever Eden specialty designer paper
    • a share of Garden gems
    • 3/8" open weave Evergreen ribbon 

    You'll use a paper trimmer to cut your new designer paper to complete the cards. You'll also need ink & stamps. I used Evening Evergreen & Soft Succulent inks and the Eden's Garden stamp set; but you easily can substitute whatever you own.

    I highly recommend adding on the bundle; I can add it to your kit to go in the same package! 

    **This kit is not the monthly kit my subscribers will receive.  That is the Gingerbread & Peppermint kit seen here. I'll share it tomorrow.  Get both November kits here.
