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.

    I bet this year many of us will be giving gift cards more than ever.  This social distancing is hard but during the Holiday's it's going to be so tough!  If you are missing celebrating with your family this year I feel for you.  Holidays are meant to be enjoyed together. But if it keeps us and them safe I'm sure it's the right decision. But we don't have to like it, right?! 

    Here's a fun gift card holder you can make to give those gift cards in. 

    I made one during last week's Facebook Live but you can see the video below, or here on my YouTube Channel. 

    The measurements are as follows: 

    • 5” X 4 ¼” – score at ½” and 2 ¾", *get 4 from one sheet of CS
    • White tag – 2” X 6” scored at 4”, Black band is 1” X 5”
    • White rectangle die-cut (Stitched So Sweetly) is 2 3/4" X 1 5/8" 

    *The gift card is the last project on the video below; you can fast forward through the cards if you'd like. 

    Products Used:

    Tag Buffet stamp set, Stitched So Sweetly Dies, Fancy Tag Topper Punch, Red, White & Black CS, Blends markers, rhinestones

    Remember you can find me here on Facebook 6 times a month!

  • We’re making explosion pop-up cards!!


    On my Stamp with Me Live I shared these cards and how easy it is to make an explosion card.  

    These cards look pretty ordinary from the front but there's a surprise inside; see below:

    Isn't it cool?  And it's super easy to do.  It's a 6" square of designer paper that you fold in halves with a bone folder. No measuring at all!  

    Here's the template for the explosion card. 

    Here's a masculine birthday made with the Plaid Tidings designer paper and Many Mates stamp set.

    These are so fun to make.  And you can add a bit more fun to the card by adding in some confetti, punched pieces or sequins to the inside.  What a surprise they'll enjoy! 

    Join me here on the 2nd & 4th Mondays at 7:30 pm Central Time.  You can either watch or prep your pieces to create right along with me!  

    Here's the video: 

    Measurements to prep:

    Card base 4 1/4" X 11" scored at 5 1/2"
    Front – DSP: one at 1 3/4" X 4 1/4" across, banners are 1 1/2" X 5 1/2" and 1 1/2" X 4 1/2"
    Greeting on a punched or die-cut circle, layered with other punches or dies.
    Inside DSP is 6" square, White is 2 3/4" square.
    Additional supplies:
    Ink, embellishments, bone folder, dimensionals, glue
     
    Products used:
    Cherry Cobbler, Shaded Spruce & Pretty Peacock CS
    Classic Christmas, 'Tis the Season & Plaid Tidings DSP.
