Little Ladybug Spinner Card!!

This fabulous spinner card was made by my friend Susie Wood; she sent one to me as we like to make cards for each other to share with our customers.  I love her style so much.  Visit her blog here.

Isn't it adorable?!  It's classic Red, Black & White; perfect for the Ladybug set. The center circles are 1 3/4" and 2" in size. The Black piece is 4" X 3 1/4" in size and that circular opening is 2 3/8" using the Circles Collection dies and punches.

This cute stamp set is FREE with any $300 order placed during Sale-a-Bration; January through March 2020.  If you don't think you can swing that large of an order I have a few suggestions for you. 

1. Have a workshop/party and invite your friends. Their orders will add up so you can earn it free!
2. Place one big order (if you can). You'll get 6 free $50 Sale-a-Bration items at the same time and earn $36 in free hostess benefits. 
3. Have a book party; inviting your fellow stamping friends to order. I can open a host code so all of the orders can be shipped to each person's ome. Sale-a-Bration is a great time to order!  Free products for each $50 you spend.
4. Purchase the starter kit and join as a Demonstrator!  Then you get 20% off your $300 order so you're really spending just $240 to earn this set!  Plus you would get 6 free Sale-a-Bration items at the same time and $36 in free hostess benefits. 

All you need for a spinner card is a window, something to spin and some string or thread.  She used our Silver metallic thread here.  The window is made with our Circles Collection Framelits. 

Watch the FB live replay video below to see how it's done.

You might wonder where the black polka dots came from. She used a sponge dauber!  So easy!!

• Poppin’ Pastels Technique with Delicate Dahlia

  September 8, 2021

  ---

  If you've been a stamper for awhile you've likely played with chalks and the Poppin' Pastel technique.  If not, check this out!  

  Save

  You'll need just a few supplies – Chalks, Versamark ink and sponge daubers. Well, card stock too! 

  Tip – choose a solid image with a full surface.  Outline images won't work as well here. 

  Here's how it's done:

  1. Ink your image in Versamark ink and stamp on card stock. 
  2. Dab your sponge dauber in chalk (if it's firm like our new Soft Pastels you may need to scrape some off & use the dust *watch the video below).
  3. Dab over your stamped image repeatedly. Do not rub on the outer edges or it may show outside of your stamped area. 
  4. Blow or dust off excess chalk.  Done!

• Easy Explosion card video tutorial with Penguin Playmates Designer Paper!

  September 7, 2021

  ---

  On last Tuesday's FB Live I shared three unique fun fold cards featuring the Penguin Place bundle and the Penguin Palace designer paper.  *Follow me on Facebook here. 

  Today I'm focusing on the Explosion card. It sure looks complicated but it's just a few score lines on a 4 X 8" piece of DSP. 

  As you can see, it's not a Christmas card.  This bundle and designer paper works well for multiple occasions.  

  Save

  The colors are Fresh Freesia, Black, White & Balmy Blue which coordinate with the adorable Penguin Playmates DSP seen here.  This paper is free during our Sale-a-Bration promotion with any $50 order.

  Save

  See that cute penguin?  It's punched out with the Penguin punch; right from the designer paper!

  DSP Explosion card

• Feels Like Home Sale-a-Bration swaps

  September 6, 2021

  ---

  We had our monthly Flowerbug's Team meeting this weekend and as usual swapped cards.  This month we chose a Sale-a-Bration theme.  Here are two pretty cards I am sure you'll love.  

  The first is made by Tracey.  She used the Feels Like Home stamp set and a monochromatic look with Cinnamon Cider. I love the fact that you do not have to color this set in.  It's beautiful stamped in one color!  See this stamp set here. 

  Save

  It's such a rich color! She added tons of texture & details to this card  including the torn edges.  

  Details:

  • Stacked Stone background stamp
  • One ink – Cinnamon Cider
  • Timeworn Type 3D embossing folder
  • Greeting tag die-cut from the In Bloom dies
  • Champagne rhinestones

  Save

  
  

  This next card is made by me in Black, Cherry Cobbler & White.  

  Save

  
  

  I stamped the image in Black Memento ink and colored in just the door with Cherry Cobbler blends markers.  It adds that fun pop of color.  It's also less time consuming than coloring the entire image.  

  Other details: Silver metallic pearls, heat embossed image punched out with the Double Oval punch.

  I added a 2" strip of the Beautifully Penned designer paper on the left.  I do love Black & White paper!

  This paper is also a free choice during our Sale-a-Bration promotion.  You can see it here.
