Last of the Men’s card series today!


Have you been enjoying my week of 'masculine' cards?  With today's cards I've shared 16 ideas for the men in our lives!  If you haven't seen them all you have a few options.  Click on each of the links below. 

If you're reading these in an email you're not seeing the entire blog and cannot see the following posts.  Be sure to click on the heading of this post to get to my actual blog and scroll backwards.  These swaps have been so special & incredibly creative!!

The first card today is made by Ginny.  She used our new Masking Paper to create the neat background stripes!

Her colors are Soft Succulent, Crumb Cake, Early Espresso & Calypso Coral.  She used the 'He's All That' bundle seen here for her stamps & dies.  I love how she die-cut the neat detail dies from her sponged paper!

This next striking card was made by Marla.  She used the new Ringed with Nature bundle seen here.  It's in our new Holiday catalog and comes with a Tree Rings embossing folder. 

I absolutely love that she used a pop of Poppy Parade cards tock here.  We tend to use muted colors for guys, but many of them love color like women tend to.  

Her colors include Poppy Parade, Soft Suede, Mint Macaron & White.  I wish you could feel the texture she achieved on her stamped tree ring! And aren't those mushrooms adorable?! 

Next is a super layered card made by Brenda using the He's the Man suite.  See it all here online.  

Her card was inspired by Brian King; her colors by the camping themed sheet in the He's the Man DSP.  She has Early Espresso, Soft Succulent, Crumb Cake & White on her card.  

I certainly hope you've been inspired by the 16 manly cards I've shared with you this week. My Flowerbug's Team is SUPER talented!

  • Pretty Center pop-out fun fold card with free project sheet & video tutorial


    I'm so excited to share this super neat fun fold card with you today!  It's called a Center Pop-out fun fold.  I found this neat fold from my friend Terri Gaines. 

    I chose to feature the Thankful Garden bundle seen here and the Lovely Garden Designer paper seen here. 

    I love these stencils!  They are so easy to work with. Watch the video below for a special tip on lining them up.

    This card looks like it might be hard to assemble but with the center 'brace' that helps the center panel pop out it's quite simple.  It will really help you understand how to make it if you watch the video tutorial below. 

    My colors include Melon Mambo with Blueberry Bushel. Here's how the card looks with the inside brace added before I adhered the center panel: 

    I made the yellow/green version on the video to show a different color combo.  

    I colored the flowers by using the stencils included in the bundle. So easy and makes you look like a true artist with the high and low lights added with blending brushes.  

    Here's the free project sheet with measurements & step by step directions.  Click on the following link to download or print it.  Download Thankful Garden Center pop up card 

    Which one do you prefer?  

    Below is the video tutorial for this card and another unique fun fold using the Lovely Garden designer series paper.
