Masterful Monochromatic Floral Swap cards by my Flowerbugs

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.

• 3 ways to use the Layered Floral on one card!

  February 7, 2024

  ---

  I shared this pretty textured card on last week's FB live video: 

  Save

  The textured card stock is Fresh Freesia.  I used a Blending Brush with Blackberry Bliss ink to highlight the gorgeous texture. The Layered Floral 3D embossing folder is amazing; it has super deep texture! 

  I made a second card during the video with another rich color combination of Night of Navy with Boho Blue. Note the different ways I added vellum to these two cards. 

  Also note the pretty texture added to the envelope flap; why don't we do this more often!? 

  Save

  Here are the 3 ways I featured this pretty Layered Floral 3D embossing folder:

  1. Textured, then added ink with a Blending Brush.
  2. I textured the envelope flap and add a very light ink, again with a Blending Brush.
  3. Cut out a large flower from a separate piece of textured card stock; and I punched a smaller flower using the Petal Park Builder punch – yes it coordinates!!

  Save

  Products used here:

  • Layered Floral 3D embossing folder; seen here
  • Deckled Circle dies seen here
  • Vellum card stock
  • Cheerful Daisy dies
  • Heartfelt Hellos stamp set from Sale-a-Bration catalog seen here; free with a $50 order
