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.  


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. 

I hope you've enjoyed seeing my talented Flowerbug's Team swaps this month.  I love seeing their style & what they create for our optional swaps.

  • Gifts Galore Paper Pumpkin; just three days left to get it


    I cannot wait to get the upcoming Paper Pumpkin kit; it's always exciting to get it.  Everyone loves Snowmen and it sounds like there are a variety of treat boxes in this month's kit.  I can also see making cute, fast cards with the components in this kit!


    Here is how Stampin' Up! describes the kit: 

    While the cellophane bags in this kit are food-safe, the packaging is sized for both treats and gifts. Have fun with the festive designs of each box—a sweet snowman, a tree with all the trimmings, or a playful pile of presents—and surprise your friends and family with treat and gift packaging that even Santa would be jealous of!

    • The Kit contains enough supplies to create nine treat packages—three each of three designs—and nine food-safe bags. 
    • This all-inclusive kit includes printed die cuts, die-cut boxes, cellophane treat bags, adhesive, and more!
    • Includes an exclusive stamp set and a Classic Stampin’ Spot
    • Coordinating colors: Evening Evergreen, Flirty Flamingo, Old Olive, Pool Party, Poppy Parade

    Subscribe here to get this kit by Wednesday, November 10th.  Or click here to get a pre-paid subscription. 

    As you know I always come up with alternative designs each month. My Paper Pumpkin subscribers receive a PDF of 10 plus projects for each kit!  Here's a peak of some from the beautiful Peaceful Christmas kit we received in October. 

    Details on Paper Pumpkin subscriptions:

    • You can skip a month or opt out at any time!
    • We always know ahead of time what the kit theme is so you can choose to receive it or not. 
    • It always includes an ink spot and exclusive stamp set!
    • Your first kit includes a clear block. 
    • The kits are all inclusive; you need nothing extra but a scissors and adhesive. 
    • Only Paper Pumpkin subscribers have exclusive access to additional kits or refills seen here! The options change each month. 
    • They make FABULOUS gifts!!

  • Nuts About Squirrels fun fold card with Stamparatus video


    We made this cute card at my October card clubs.  See the video towards the bottom of this post. 

    It features the Nuts About Squirrels stamp set in the Holiday catalog.  Click here to see it. 

    My colors include Soft Suede, Pumpkin Pie, Vanilla & Pear Pizzazz.  See the tag?  We stamped directly on the die-cut tag using Soft Suede ink. This tag is from the Pretty Pillow Box dies on page 9 of the Holiday catalog. 

    Measurements:

    • Soft Suede 5 1/2" X 8 1/2" scored at 2 1/8" and 4 1/4" plus 1 7/8" X 5 1/4"
      Pumpkin Pie 3 1/2" X 4 3/4"
      Very Vanilla 3 1/4" X 4 1/2" for front & inside
      Cork paper – scrap for die-cut tag (Pretty Pillow Box dies)

    The Stamparatus made stamping the squirrel images so easy & perfectly placed too! See that here.  It's the best stamp positioning tool out there!

    Watch this video below for lots of tips.

  • Eden’s Garden cards; place an order and get a free card class!


    The Jump to Save promotion starts today! Save 40% on our Starter Kit – a customizable kit of your choice of Stampin' Up! products! Go here to read more about it. I'd love to have you join our friendly Flowerbug's group!


    I have a few more Eden's Garden cards to share today.  This first one features the stamps & dies.  I know many of you are loving the Ever Eden Designer paper but the stamps & dies are also lovely!  

    This card is one of the cards in my free 4 card class this month.  Anyone who places an order over $50 receives a pre-cut card class & PDF.  The kit does not include stamping but everything is die-cut for you; even the bow is done!

    Do you see the texture on the large Soft Succulent layer?  That is from the die itself; not an embossing folder.  You can see how that's done in the video shown here. 

    I used Evening Evergreen & Cherry Cobbler ink and the Eden's Garden stamp set. 

    The next card features the pretty Ever Eden Designer Paper as well as the stamps & dies seen here.  It's a unique layout with just a few layered 2" squares, a stamped background and the pretty greeting label die-cuts. 

    Note the layering effect on these dies.  I share how to do that on the video link above.  

    Did you know you can get the entire collection in your Starter kit?  Get your customized kit at over 40% off!  You actually get $50 free product right now instead of our usual $25.  And shipping is free as well! It's a fabulous deal and a great way to get a bunch of Stampin' Up! products.
