Life is Beautiful fun fold cards with video!

December 31, 2020

Here are the two cards I made on FB Live last week. I had to ink up my Life is Beautiful stamp set one more time. Sadly it's retiring on January 4th.

Save

This first card is made with Purple Posy & Gray Granite. I cut off 1 1/2" from the front layer to reveal a bit of the inside. I used the Stamparatus to stamp both the tree and greeting at the same time. I love it for mass producing! Perfect every time!

I used Highland Heather ink for the bokeh dots in this set; stamped off a few times. That neat texture is a new folder in the upcoming Spring catalog called Painted Texture.

Thoughtful Blooms with the Small Bloom punch

February 21, 2020
Here are a few more swap cards made by my Flowerbug's Team this month. I just love seeing what my gals create for our swaps!

The Thoughtful Blooms stamp set coordinates with the Small Blooms punch. See them here and here:

Jacki made this beautiful card. I love the many layers and details here. And the colors are fresh and unique – Soft Suede, Mint Macaron, Bermuda Bay and White. She used the new Label Me Fancy punch, the Starburst punch, Leaf punch and the Painted Label dies for the swirl. The greeting is from the Peaceful Moments set. That gorgeous texture is from the Parisian Flourish embossing folder seen here.

Candace made this unique card below:

Save

Her colors are Gorgeous Grape, Balmy Blue and Granny Apple Green. Isn't this layout fun?! the technique is called Triple Stamping. You place your White layers in position as shown without the Grape layers in between and stamp on the three pieces all at once. Then add the Grape layers and adhere to your main card. Super easy and fun too.

She added a pretty greeting in Purple Posy with the Stitched So Sweetly dies (my favorite!) and the punched flowers from the Small Bloom punch.

Measurements:
- Grape – 5 1/2" X 8 1/2", 4 1/4" X 3 1/4" and 3 1/4" X 2 1/4"
- White – 4" X 5 1/4", 4" X 3" and 3" X 2"

Lovely Lily Pad with Lily Pad dies to match!

February 20, 2020

Waterlilies are so trendy now and these reversible Lovely Lily Pad stamps in the 2020 Sale-a-Bration catalog are beautiful!

I'm sharing more of my Team swaps from our meeting earlier this month. Many of my team choose to join in our monthly swaps. Our swaps are optional and work like this: design one card and make one for everyone in the swap. If there are 12 people in the swap you make 12 of the same cards. Then send or bring them to me and I sort them out and return them to everyone participating. It's so fun to get all different cards back when you only had to create one!

First is Mary's pretty card:

Save

She used the Stitched Rectangle dies on three of her layers here! Her colors are Bermuda Bay, Grapefruit Grove and Old Olive. A little bit of Rococo Rose and Coastal Cabana too. The Lily Impressions designer paper has tons of pretty colors in it.

Roxann made this next card. She also used a Bermuda Bay card base but focused on Melon Mambo and Granny Apple Green as her colors.

Save

It truly looks like water is reflecting the flowers on this pretty Lily Impressions designer paper. This paper is a free choice with any $50 order right now. See them here.

Her greeting is from the Sending you Thoughts set; also a free choice during our Sale-a-Bration promotion.

Bobby created this pretty card below. It also reminds me of a water garden with lilies in it.

Save

Her colors are Pretty Peacock, Pool Party and Grapefruit Grove. Isn't that border die beautiful? I also like that peek of a vellum lily behind the largest lily. I have a bunch of talented ladies on my Team!

If you've considered joining Stampin' Up! as a Demonstrator I'd love to have you in my Flowerbug's group. Read about that opportunity here.

Happy Birthday to You SAB set swaps

February 19, 2020

Two more pretty card swaps from my Flowerbug's Team today. These two cards are similar in layout but still so different.

This Happy Birthday to You stamp set (seen here) is free with any $50 order during Sale-a-Bration. And now there is a set of dies to match! Click on the photo below to see those. My customers love it when there are dies to match; no fussy cutting!

Save

First is Deloris's card in Balmy Blue and Daffodil Delight.

Save

She used the Stitched So Sweetly dies for her White layer and the greeting. The cake and the flowers are cut out with the Birthday Dies seen above. She colored the images with Blends markers. The texture is from the Parisian Flourish embossing folder.

Next is Karen's card; she used Pacific Point with Daffodil Delight and Silver foil

Save

Her stamped cake and the Silver cake stand are cut out with the Birthday dies. She textured her Pacific Point layer with the Coastal Weave embossing folder.

Like I said; these two cards are similar but not!

This pretty stamp set fits just about any celebration that involves cake; which in our family is just about everything!
