Look at these wonderful Plaid Themed card swaps

I'm excited to share these fabulous swap cards by my Flowerbug's Team today.  Our theme was to use plaid in some way on our cards. 

Jacki made this unique card with the Timeless Plaid DSP.  

April Jacki Save

She cut three pieces of Timeless Plaid DSP using the Stylish Shapes dies. Then cut them into even pieces and added her sentiment between them.  I love the simple addition of the twine on the upper left.  She used the new Secret Sea with Very Vanilla. The greeting is from the With You in Mind stamp set.  

Paula made this gorgeous card also using the Timeless Plaid DSP.

She also used the Mini Corrugated 3D embossing folder and the Textured Notes dies and the Wishing You bundle. I love her color combo; it really shows off the pretty colors in the DSP.  Look at the ribbon threaded through the die-cut edges!  Her colors include Early Espresso & Pecan Pie. 

Candy made this gorgeous card using the Twisted in Time stamp set.

  • Gorgeous Abundant Beauty Kraft notecards with gift box

    I was inspired by this set of cards & box by a project shared online. I changed up the colors to 'my' favorites and created this:

    Abundant Beauty note cards & box Save

    I absolutely LOVE the Abundant Beauty Decorative masks seen here! The sunflowers are my favorite of course, but I also used the houndstooth mask here as well. Unfortunately these masks are out of stock right now. They'll be back around November 13th. 

    ABUNDANT BEAUTY DECORATIVE MASKS Save

    You might think I made this box but I sure didn't!  It's found on page 135 of our Annual Catalog. It includes 20 cards & 20 envelopes and one box for gifting cards in; all in Kraft paper.  The cards are notecard side which is 5" X 3 1/2". See it here online. 

    KRAFT NOTE CARDS & ENVELOPES Save

    As you can see in the photo below I used the houndstooth mask to add a soft background to each notecard.  I used a blending brush and Copper Clay ink.

    The sunflowers are made with Pretty Peacock ink and the leaves are Granny Apple Green on White cardstock. Yes; they are all fussy cut! I did some but my friend Pat did the rest for me; she loves to fussy cut things! 

    The greetings are from the So Sincere stamp set from the 2023 Holiday catalog.  It's my favorite greeting set right now. See it here. 

    SO SINCERE CLING STAMP SET (ENGLISH) Save

     

    You can see in the photo below that I added the houndstooth pattern to the entire box, inside & out.  Because it comes flat it's easy to do. 

    I hope you're inspired by this project.  I'm not sure who will receive it yet, but it will be someone special!
