Last of the Clean & Simple Team swaps!

Today I'm sharing the last of the March Team swaps with the Clean & Simple theme.  No designer paper!

Lori created with pretty card with the Linked Together bundle seen here. 

Save

This bundle has stamps, dies and masks which is how she created her background.  All using Bubble Bath ink! 

Save

I love her soft background and the die accents she added by the greeting.  Just gorgeous!  

Save

Next is a pretty card made by Tracey. She chose to use the You are Remarkable stamp set seen here.  

Save

She also stamped a soft background behind the flower using the Elements of Text set.  Her color include Daffodil Delight & Crumb Cake with a bit of green on the leaves.  

I love how she stamped the inside; that bee is adorable. 

Save

And lastly is this beautiful all White card made by Jonna.  

Save

White on White is hard to photograph; I wish you could see how elegant it is in person!  

She used the Seaside Wishes bundle along with a bunch of score lines on the left side. This little touch anchors the seashells wonderfully!  

I hope you've enjoyed seeing my talented team swaps this month!

• Heartfelt Hexagon cards with free printable project sheets

  October 23, 2023

  ---

  Today I'm sharing a few more cards made with the Heartfelt Hexagon punch bundle. See the first project here. 

  When creating this next card I chose to use the Delightful Floral designer paper seen here. I had a few large scraps in the package and created this card:

  It's a classic layout that's perfect for using up those random pieces of designer paper you might have.  I like to layer one of the pieces to bring in another color layer; Pretty Peacock here. Then I simply added a layered Hexagon punch combined with the pretty Elegant Edge Tag Topper punch. You can see it here online.  

  My Lemon Lime Twist strip is 1" X 3 1/2" which is perfect for that delicate edge.  

  It's quite easy to layer the Hexagon punch.  Punch a second contrasting piece, cut it in half horizontally and add the stamped punched piece to it leaving a small border at the top & bottom.  You can see how this is done in the video below.

  Next is an easy card layout featuring designer paper scraps.  This time I chose the beautiful All About Autumn specialty designer paper.  This has been so popular they cannot keep it in stock!  It's currently unavailable but should return the week of October 30th.

  Below is a photo of the inside. It might be hard to see the gift card pocket on the inside left.  Scroll down to the other photo of the inside.  Isn't this greeting wonderful?  It's my favorite one in the set:

• Unique Christmas card swaps; they’re not your average cards!

  October 19, 2023

  ---

  Today I'm sharing the last of our October Flowerbug's Team Christmas card swaps.  These two cards are not your average Christmas cards! 

  First is a pretty card made by Marla.  She put together a unique color combination of Pretty Peacock with Moody Mauve and it works! 

  Save

  She chose two stamp sets for her card; Ringed with Nature and Vertical Blooms. Both are from the 2023-24 Annual Catalog.  The designer paper is the Earthen Elegance, also from the Annual catalog. 

  Measurements:

  • Moody Mauve card base 8 1/2" X 5 1/2" score at 2 1/8" and 4 1/4"
  • Moody Mauve inside 6 1/2" X 3 1/4" score at 3 1/4" and 5 3/8"
  • DSP layers 2 pieces at 1 7/8" X 5 1/4", and inside back is 4" x 5 1/4"
  • White layers 3" square, 1 7/8" X 3" and 7/8" X 3"

  Sharon made this super cute reindeer card featuring the Sending Cheer dies seen here.

  Save

  Can you tell that the reindeer are upside down gingerbread men?  Rudolf is a complete die-cut but the Mrs is half.  She added so much detail on them too! 

  • The 'hello' die cut is from the Rustic Crate dies
  • The antlers are from Autumn Leaves dies.
  • Ears are from the monkey punch. 

  She used the Joy of Christmas designer paper on the front, cutting it in half with the Border Basics dies.  A great idea!  

  Save

  The greetings are from the Horse & Sleigh stamp set (online exclusive). 

  Below you can see all of the Flowerbug's October swap cards.  Details on each if you go back each day this week.
