LOTS of beautiful Flowering Zinnias card swaps by my Team!


I'm continuing to share our March card swaps made by my Flowerbug's.  Our theme was Online Exclusives and many of us chose the Flowering Zinnias and the Simply Zinnia bundle for our cards. 

*Currently the Flowering Zinnias Suite and bundle are unavailable.  The Simply Zinnias stamp set is out of stock and expected back in around March 25th.  The Shiny Sequins are also out of stock but expected back in April.

First is a pretty card made by Karen G.  

She showed off the beautiful Flowering Zinnias designer paper AND the Berry Burst & Old Olive glimmer paper seen here.  It also includes a sheet of White in the pack.  This designer paper pack includes two sheets of paper perfect for an easy card front. 

The greeting is from the Simply Zinnia stamp set. Her colors include Flirty Flamingo, Old Olive and White.

Next is a fun fold card made by Karen A. 

She tore the Flowering Zinnias designer paper into strips and added to her card front.  What a great layering technique! She used Black, Petal Pink and Lemon Lime Twist here.  It's actually a special fun fold that twists!

This is one of those cards you have to see in person or on a video; it's very cool! 

Measurements:

  • Black card base 11" X 4 1/4" score at 5 1/2".  Then make a mark on one side at 4 1/4" and score diagonally to that line.  You'll fold the card on that diagonal back to the top and add the Green layer to it. 
  • Lemon Lime Twist 4" square
  • Petal Pink 3 3/4" & 1" X 4"
  • DSP strips measure 3 1/2" across.  The vertical strip on the side is 3/4" X 3 3/4"

Next is a neat card made by Rita. 

She used the Flowering Zinnias designer paper and a window sheet layer to create a peek-a-boo card. The sentiment is from Forever Fern (now retired) stamped on a Hexagon punched piece. The flowers are fussy cut from the designer paper. 

Measurements:

  • Card base 4 1/4" X 7 1/2" score at 5 1/2"
  • DSP – 4 pieces at 4 1/4" X 2"

I love seeing what my gals make! Many times I'm reminded of neat card folds, layouts or techniques. 

Next is a pretty card made by Ginny who focused on the Simply Zinnias stamp set. 

She used Blends markers to color the pretty zinnia image.  Melon Mambo, Daffodil Delight & Pumpkin Pie are her cardstock & Blends colors.  She popped up the top two layers on Dimensionals; what a difference this makes! 

I'll share more team swaps next week!

  • Quick cards with the Stack & Cut template! Video & measurements too!


    I featured the Stack & Cut template for this project from last week's Stamp Camp class.  Scroll down to see the template; it's one of my favorite ways to use designer paper and for quick cards too!  

    I chose to feature the Celebrate Everything designer paper for a colorful thank you card.  Here are the products I used: 

    • Greetings are from the Charming Sentiments stamp set
    • Leaves are from the Simply Fabulous stamp set
    • The white die-cut is from the Painted Label dies. The Poppy Parade circle is 2 1/4"

    And here is the template.  Remember that you can use just one piece of DSP for one card; or stack two pieces and get 2 cards.  This works best with double sided designer paper.  

    I hope you try making some Stack & Cut cards soon.  Like I said it's a wonderful way to use your designer paper. 

    Here's a group of cards I shared in this video. 

    I share this card & 2 more fun folds in the video below:

  • Christmas Card Class – Attend class or get the pre-cut kit & tutorial!


    Each year I offer my local gals at least 3 Christmas card classes so they can create beautiful cards to send to their family & friends. I also offer my long distance customers a chance to get these same cards in a pre-cut kit & tutorial as well.  

    Here are the beautiful cards for October's class:  

    I love the variety – from cute to beautiful; they satisfy all of your holiday card needs.  

    For these cards I used the Christmas Season (2022 Annual Catalog), the Christmas Scottie, Sweet Candy Canes and Peace to You stamp sets from the 2022 Holiday catalog.  You can substitute other sets for these if you'd like to.  

    The local class is on Saturday, October 29th at 10 am.  Cost is $25 and you'll make 3 of each card with stamped, coordinating envelopes too.  RSVP to attend  by Thursday, October 20th please.  

    The pre-cut kit to go includes 12 cards, all cut, die-cut & punched pieces.  It includes ribbons but not gems, texturing or stamped images. The cost is $25 plus shipping. 

    Go here to get the kit to go; while supplies last.  

    You can combine kits and save on shipping.  You can see them all here.  

    I am not offering the PDF tutorial separately at this time. 

    I just love these cards!!

  • Last of the Team swaps; gorgeous cards from the Holiday & Annual catalogs


    Today is the last of the swaps from our Flowerbug's September swap event.  I've sure enjoyed sharing their talent with you and hope you've been inspired by them.  If you haven't seen them all, click here and scroll down.  

    First up is a a card by Ginny who featured the Painted Pheasant stamp set seen here.  I just love the colors she achieved on the bird!!

    She inked the stamp with markers; spritzed with water and stamped.  A clever way to get multiple colors on this image.  

    Her card base is Petal Pink with a bit of Soft Succulent and Cajun Craze added too. 

    ~~~

    Next is a pretty card made by Marilyn with the Gathered White bundle seen here.  

    She used the Deckled rectangles & Stylish Shapes dies in addition to the dies in the Gathered White bundle.  Her colors are Crushed Curry with Early Espresso & White.  

    ~~~

    Lastly is Tracey's cute card made with the Cheerful Basket bundle.  There's so much life & texture to this card! 

    Her colors are Crushed Curry, Cherry Cobbler, White & Soft Suede. The embossing folder is called Gingham, the letters are stamped on the Celebrate Everything host DSP and the apples are colored with Blends markers. 

    The 'apples' is made with the adorable Alphabest bundle seen here.  This punch & stamp bundle is so easy to use!  It's photopolymer and allows you to easily and quickly customize your projects.  See it here. 

    I hope you've enjoyed seeing the many incredible swap cards my Flowerbug's created for our September swap.  Here's a photo of them all:
