Masterful Monochromatic Floral Swap cards by my Flowerbugs

January 25, 2022

Today is the last of the pretty monochromatic cards my Flowerbug's gals made for our January swap. The theme was a challenge for some but others found it easy. Have you made a monochromatic card before? If not try it!

This first card was made by Tracey using the Meadow dies in Blushing Bride & White.

There are so many beautiful details!

All of these flowers, butterfly & greeting dies are from the Meadow dies seen here. They're cut from White, Bushing Bride & Vellum CS
The texture is from the Bark 3D embossing folder seen here.
She sponged on one of the die-cuts and the textured piece too.
The greeting is heat embossed using White embossing powder

Next is a card made by Ginny using the Color & Contour bundle seen here. She chose to use the In Color Pale Papaya.

The designer paper is from our 6 X 6" In Color assorted DSP pack seen here. Did you know we have patterned paper in each of our Stampin' Up! colors! I love how easy it is to coordinate our products with our color line. It just makes me happy!

Next is a card Candace made using the new Sale-a-Bration free bundle called Friendly Hello seen here.

Save

Here are the details:

Her colors are Blushing Bride & Flirty Flamingo. She stamped her flowers on both the greeting circle and the Blushing Bride card base.
She used the Basic Border dies to trim off the front edge for a stitched detail.
The striped DSP is on the inside of the card. It's from the Host Pattern Party DSP
She textured the larger circle with the new Gingham embossing folder.
The ribbon is our new Frayed White ribbon in the Jan-June catalog.

Lots to Celebrate stamp set & fun card ideas

September 11, 2020

I made time to play with the Lots to Celebrate stamp a few weeks ago and featured these cards on Tuesday's FB Live. Remember that I host a weekly FB Live every Tuesday at 11 am CT here. Follow me so you don't miss any!

This fun, versatile stamp set is my good friend Susie Wood's Million Dollar Achiever stamp set. She created it to coordinate with the Jar Punch. Click here to see it online. We've been stamping buddies for years since we met at my first Founder's Circle event and always hang out together at every SU event we can. Click here to see her blog.

Aren't they fun? I cased three cards she made and sent me and changed them up a bit; some more than others.

The colors above are Pumpkin Pie with Crushed Curry & Early Espresso. That gorgeous designer paper is from the Plaid Tidings seen here. I used three punches here; the Fancy Tag Topper, the Jar punch and the Autumn Punch Pack.

Watch the video below to see her original cards and how I changed them. Plus I show more of her creative cards too.

Look at this Amazing Gift!

September 10, 2020
I received quite a wonderful surprise in the mail last week from Jakelle; a demonstrator in eastern North Dakota. Look at what she made me!

Save

It's a 5 X 7" board on an easel and her craftmanship is incredible! She used sooo many different dies & products to complete it.
- Tasteful Labels, Playful Alphabet & So Much Happy dies
- Lovely Labels Pick a Punch
- In Good Taste Designer Series Paper
- Nothing's Better Than stamp set
Save

She sent this gorgeous card too, congratulating me on my Million Dollar in Sales achievement.

Save

Isn't it beautiful? She used the Celebrate Sunflowers stamp set and dies bundle and the In Good Taste DSP. If you want to know how to make this Double-point fun fold card here's a link to a video I made.

I am so grateful for the fabulous friends I've made; both online and in person. I would say I have the best job ever; but it doesn't feel like a job! I'm loving it. And like my stamp set says, Life is Beautiful!

Life is Beautiful Apple Tree; get the secret to easy apples!

September 9, 2020
Here's one more card with my Life is Beautiful stamp set. We made this one at my August Card Clubs.

Save

The colors are the new In Color Just Jade with Early Espresso & Real Red. See the tiny 'apples' on the tree? Well I wanted just a few apples from the large bokeh dots image. I have a surprising way of stamping just a few of the stamp image. I dare you to try it! Watch the video below to see what I did!

That pretty stitched shape is from the Celebration Label dies seen here. There are 5 sizes of this shape in the set!

Save

I'm so happy with all of the projects people are making with this stamp set! It's been fun to see how much everyone seems to like it!

Measurements:
- Just Jade card base 5 1/2" X 8 1/2"
  Very Vanilla 4 3/8" X 3 1/8" die-cut
  Early Espresso 2" X 4 1/4"
  Real Red 1" X 5 1/2"
