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.  

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.  

Save

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. 

Save

She also used the Textured Notes dies and the Plaid embossing folder.  Her colors include Lost Lagoon, Basic Beige and Early Espresso. 

More swaps coming tomorrow!

  We're continuing the Sale-a-Bration card swap theme. My Flowerbug gals are so talented!  

  This first card is made by Karen and she used a fun 'Floating' technique with the Penguin Playmates designer paper.  You cut strips of paper and adhere them to a window sheet.  Then you pop the whole thing up. The strips look like their floating! 

  This designer paper is one of our Sale-a-Bration choices; it's free with any $50 order through September 30th.  See it here.

  And here's another cute card made by Candace with the Penguin Playmates DSP and the Penguin Place stamp set. It's a corner latch fold!  These cute penguins are easy to make with this punch bundle.  See it here. 

  Save

  Did you notice that even though these cards feature penguins they are not holiday cards?  Love the versatility of both the Sale-a-Bration designer paper and this stamp & punch bundle! 

  Next is Lori's card featuring the Textures & Frames stamp set & Hand-Penned designer paper.  What a fun background she stamped on the upper panel!  She used the colors in the DSP – Daffodil Delight, Soft Succulent & Highland Heather.

• 3 great ideas with the Peaceful Prints Designer Paper

  August 30, 2021

  ---

  Have you seen the Peaceful Prints designer paper?  It's in our Sale-a-Bration catalog and is free with any $50 order through September. Click here to see it. 

  This photo does not do it justice!  The colors are rich & vibrant – Black, Cherry Cobbler, Real Red, Garden Green & Sahara Sand.  

  Save

  Our August Team swap featured all Sale-a-Bration products.  I sure love sharing what my Flowerbug's made!  These three cards all feature this fabulous designer paper. 

  Candy made this first card with the Peaceful Deer bundle. It coordinates with this free designer paper too!  

  Save

  She did stamp the image in the set using Red ink and punched it out. Then she added the Soft Suede antlers and a Red rhinestone. 

  Lots of details on this card:

  • Stitched Whimsy dies
  • Stitched Rectangle dies
  • Merry Melody 3D embossing folder
  • Colors are Real Red, Crumb Cake & Garden Green with White 

  Marilyn made this next card with one of my latest fun folds shared on FB Live.  It's called a Faux Pocket card. You can see the video for this fold here. 

  Save

  She used the Layering Circle dies and the Stitched Rectangle dies for her main pieces.  The deer on the circle is cut from the actual designer paper. The greeting is from the Time of Giving stamp set and is heat embossed with White embossing powder on Black CS. 

  This card fold might look complicated but it sure isn't!  Again, click here to see the video. 

  Next is Annette's card featuring Garden Green, Black & White

  Save

  Her greeting is from the Peaceful Cabin stamp set.  It's on an Everyday Label punch.  She punched a second piece in Black and cut it in half vertically to layer on the White one. Simple & beautiful!

• Summer Shadow dies & Shaded Summer; a beautiful pairing!

  August 27, 2021

  ---

  I'm sharing our Flowerbug Team swaps featuring Sale-a-Bration choices. This amazing card was  created by Paula. 

  She used the Summer Shadow dies seen here along with the Shaded Summer stamp set. This stamp set is in the Annual Catalog on page 75 and the dies are a free choice during SAB/Sale-a-Bration. However remember that these dies are expected to sell out before the end of September when SAB ends.  See them here. 

  Save

  This is also a fun fold card.  Her Black card is 5 1/2" X 8 1/2" and is scored at 2 1/8" X 4 1/4".  The front left panel is folded back.

  Look at the many layers of die-cuts she added here!  Lots of Vellum along with Polished Pink ink and Just Jade & Soft Succulent card stock & inks. Placing the die-cuts on Black really brings out the color & details. 

  Save

  
  

  The designer paper on the left panel is from the Pattern Party 12 X 12 Host paper.  It's one of the choices you get free with an order over $150; host rewards kick in at this level.  See it here or on page 171 in the Annual catalog. 

  Have a great weekend everyone!
