Lights of Aurora scenic card with project sheet & video tutorial

October 13, 2025

I shared this pretty card on last week’s Live video:

It features the Lights of Aurora suite seen here. I made sure to cute my designer paper at 3″ wide so I could get 2 pieces from each 6″ piece. We made this pretty card at my September card clubs.

Besides the DSP & colors (Balmy Blue & Pool Party) do you notice another difference? Look at the ribbon; I tried a new technique of rolling the Balmy Blue sheer ribbon on the left card. Something different!

Another time saving tip for this card is that I could die-cut two sets of trees at the same time with the extra long die in the bundle seen here:

These sentiments & die-cut are from the Peace on Earth bundle; the leaves are from the Textured Notes set.

Tip; add balance to your card by placing the main layers off to one side and the greeting on the other.
This suite has been really popular with my customers. It’s something special & unique we’ve never had before. See it here.

Ginny made this cute card with the A Little Latte designer paper

Save

Her colors include Calypso Coral and Pecan Pie. She cased this card from Karen Ksenzahovie from Creative Stamping Designs. I like the little details of the three DSP strips under the coffee cups. Her greeting is heat embossed in White.

~~~

Mary also featured the A Little Latte designer paper and the Latte Love bundle. These products can be seen online here.

Save

Her colors include Pecan Pie with Lost Lagoon and White. She trimmed off an inch from the left front to reveal the cute trio of die-cut coffee cups inside. Cute detail!

Fun Summery card swaps by my Team

August 1, 2024

This week I've been sharing our July card swaps made by my Flowerbug's Team. Our theme was thank you cards without flowers.

Roxann made this adorable card with the Round we Go bundle:

Save

See the Round we Go bundle here. Her background paper is from the Country Woods DSP seen here. Her colors are Smoky Slate, Petal Pink and Pool Party with White. What a fun and eye-catching card!

Lori made this one with the Spotlight on Nature dies and the Butterfly Paper Accents seen here.

Save

Unfortunately the Spotlight on Nature dies are unavailable again – this must be the third time since they were released! Her colors include Crumb Cake, Pretty in Pink and Summer Splash with White. The amazing Dotted Circles 3D embossing folder is featured on her background. Love how it fits so perfectly with the circles! It's in low inventory but you can see that here.

~~~

Candy made this beautiful card with the Sketched Butterfly bundle seen here.

Save

I love her soft colors of Lost Lagoon with Smoky Slate, Black and Very Vanilla. She used Lost Lagoon & Smoky Slate Blends markers to color that pretty butterfly. She also used the dark Lost Lagoon blends marker to color her Black & Very Vanilla large check ribbon.

Tomorrow I'll post the last of the July Team swaps.

July 31, 2024
Today's Team swaps both feature Online Exclusive products. This means the items are only seen online and are not in any printed publication. There are so many available it's crazy! See them all here.

This first card is a fun fold and made by Paula. She created an incredibly beautiful card with the Sophisticated Sled bundle!

Save

The sled and ice skates are incredibly realistic! This new Sled bundle is amazing. You can see it here.

Save

It's a really neat fun fold card where the right front flap overlaps the left layer of designer paper. She featured the new Season of Green & Gold specialty designer series paper here too.

Save

Save

Look at the detail on these die-cuts!!

Save

Joan made this next card using the Fluffiest Friends bundle. Isn't it adorable?!

Save

Unfortunately the Fluffiest Friends stamp set sold out and only the dies are available. This can happen with Online Exclusives. They are available while supplies last. Sometimes they'll reorder and other times they do not.

Her colors include Crumb Cake, Peach Pie & Summer Splash with a bit of Lemon Lime Twist too. She did a lot of sponging on the textured Crumb Cake and the greeting label. Adorable!

Stay tuned for more fabulous Team swaps all this week!
