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.

• Easel card fold with Modern Christmas with a free project sheet! Mystery boxes are still available!

  November 11, 2025

  ---

  On last week’s video I shared two fun fold cards featuring the Modern Christmas suite. I shared one yesterday and today I’m sharing the Easel fun fold card. I haven’t made one of these for awhile and forgot how quickly they come together.

  Save

  Black, White & Gold are so classy. I did use one bundle and two sets of dies to create this card.
  

  I used the Traditional Labels bundle seen here for the greeting heat embossed in gold. And the Peace on Earth dies for the center die-cut. Plus the Peaceful Greenery coordinating embossing folder seen here. And lastly the Scenic Adventure dies here for the trees die-cut. Whew!

  Save

  There’s just something about a mostly white card that makes it elegant.
  I did create a free project sheet for this card. Click here to print or download it.

  Below is the video for this card and another fabulous Z-fold card. I hope you watch it and if you’re not already subscribed to my YouTube channel please do!

• Modern Christmas Triple-Z card with video & free project sheet

  November 10, 2025

  ---

  First; I’ll let you know I still have several Mystery Boxes left. Don’t miss the opportunity to get over $200 in free products! See the details here.

  I shared this super neat card on last week’s video. I love this fold! It looks like work but it’s so easy!

  Save

  Isn’t it fabulous?! I found several others online and had to try it. I chose to feature the Modern Christmas suite seen here.

  The scored lines to create this fold are simply 1″ & 3″ for both the card base and the 3 strips. Watch the video below to see how it’s put together.

  The main image of trees is stamped on the die-cut from Branching Out. See these dies here; they coordinate with the stamp set but stand alone too. The greeting is from the Traditional Labels bundle seen here. I cut a second die-cut in Gold and split it apart across the middle so it shows.

  Here’s how I stamped the back side:

  The trees & greetings are from the Ornamental Christmas bundle seen here. I love the playful style of the stamp set.

  Save

  The card bekiw is the card I made during the video. I changed it up a bit.

  Save

  The beautiful gold & black paper (and the above trees DSP) is from the Modern Christmas DSP seen here. It’s so elegant and fits with the star die-cut from the Modern Christmas bundle quite well. The circle die-cut is from the Spotlight on Nature dies seen here.

  Save

  I created a free project sheet for these cards. Click here to print or download it. I do recommend you create a file for project sheets or card ideas. It’s so handy to access it quickly.

  Below is the video tutorial for this card and another as well. Both feature this beautiful Modern Christmas suite. I’ll share the other card tomorrow.

• Two more of my favorite kits. There are still Mystery Boxes left!

  November 7, 2025

  My mystery boxes are selling well; be sure to grab yours while there are some left. *see below

  I wanted to share two more of my favorite kits from our Kit Collection seen here.

  First is a thank you kit called ‘Thank You Kindly’. It’s an elegant set of cards that are both special & easy to make.

  Save

  They’re mostly white with gold foil accents & that stunning black pre-printed greeting. This is a non-stamping kit. It’s currently in low inventory so it will likely sell out soon. It’s just $14 and can be seen here.

  Save

  Next is the gorgeous Harvest Home Garland that can also be made into a wreath. It would be great for your Thanksgiving table or used as a wreath.

  Save

  It took me about 1 1/2 hours to make mine. I even added some sponging/blending to the paper leaves (which wasn’t in the directions. It have everything you need except hot glue – recommended to attach the leaves to the rope. It’s so pretty and I love the non-traditional colors that still have an autumn look. See it in the store here.
