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.

  • 3 more pretty fun fold cards for you with measurements; one is a sneak peek of upcoming product!

    I hope you're enjoying the awesome fun fold cards I've been sharing this week.  My Flowerbugs Team swaps were incredible this month!  Our theme was to make fun fold cards featuring a new In Color. 

    First up today is Candy's card which features Secret Sea with Cloud Cover & Vanilla. 

    June Candy Textured Notes Save

    She used the Textured Notes bundle seen here.  It's one of my favorites!  She created her own background using the stamps in the set and Secret Sea ink – stamping off first for some. 

    Measurements:

    • 7 1/4" X 5 1/2" scored at 4 1/4"
    • Vanilla panels 2 3/4" X 5 1/4"
    • Cloud Cover 1 1/8" X 5 1/4"
    • greeting die-cut 2 1/4" X 3/4", layer is 2 3/8" X 7/8" 

    June Candy Textured Notes Save

    The textured panel is done with the Pressed Flowers embossing folder seen here.

    Next is a lovely card made by Ginny featuring the Beautiful Gallery designer paper seen here.  It's part of our Suite BOGO sale too; in fact the entire suite is included!  

    June Ginny Beautiful Gallery Save

    Her layout shows off the entire scene pictured on the DSP. This fold is perfect for scenic papers! 

    Measurements:

    • Cloud Cover card base 8 1/2" X 5 1/2" scored at 2 1/8" & 4 1/4"
    • DSP – front panel is 4" X 5 1/4", inside is 2" X 5 1/4"

      June Ginny Beautiful Gallery Save

    Lastly we have a sneak peek of some upcoming product from Kim. She used a suite featured in a Demo event called Creativity Now this month. She was able to pre-order the Peaceful Garden suite items that will be in the upcoming Holiday catalog in September, 2025. 

    June Kim P Save
    Her card is a simple Z-fold that really shows off that front White textured panel.  And look how the die-cut greeting label fits in that embossing panel! *notice those new flower gems….

    She did a neat technique for her greeting panel. She used Secret Sea ink and a Blending Brush over an entire sheet of White card stock. Then she stamped and die-cut the label and the inside sprig from that. Super idea!

    Measurements:

    • card base 8 1/2" X 5 1/2" score at 2 1/8" & 4 1/4"
    • White front is 4" X 5 1/4", inside is 3 1/2" X 4 3/4"

  • 3 fun fold cards celebrating Strawberry Slush!

    I have THREE neat fun fold cards from our June Team card swap.  My Flowerbug's did an incredible job on their fun fold cards!  

    First up is Sharon's card featuring the Cheers & Sips bundle seen here. 

    June Sharon Cheers & Sips Save

    The top card base layer is scored to creates a box that pops up & supports the front panel. Super neat! 

    She added Fine Tip Glue to her fussy cut drinks for some shine.  To do this you need to let it set awhile to dry. I'd recommend two layers.  If you don't want it to get a bit curvy from the liquid in the glue, add a layer of card stock under it.  

    Her inside greeting is from the Unbounded Love set.  The gems are from the Holographic Resin dots.

    June Sharon Celebratory Sips Save

    Measurements:

    • Strawberry Slush card base 8 1/4" X 5 1/2" scored at 4 1/4", 5 3/4", 6 1/4", 7 3/4"
    • front CS panel 2 3/4" X 4"
    • DSP 2 pieces at 1 3/8" X 5 3/8", pieces under the greeting are 2 3/4" X 1 1/4", 2 3/4" X 1/4" and inside is 2 3/4" X 1 1/4" 
    • inside White panel 2 3/4" X 4"

    ~~~

    Next is a neat Latch card made by Kathy who used the Sweet Jar bundle seen here. 

    June Sweet Jar Kathy . Save

    Her colors include Cloud Cover and Strawberry Slush. The Designer Paper is from the Florals in Bloom DSP seen here. 

    The front flap opens up to reveal another panel that she stamped with coffee beans and the die-cut from the Paper Pumpkin add on dies (now retired).

    June Kathy Sweet Jar Save

    And the front panel open up too!  

    Measurements:

    • card base 7 1/4" X 5 1/2" scored at 4 1/4"
    • DSP 2 3/4" X 5 1/4"
    • White panels X 3 – 2 3/4" square; inside 4" X 5 1/4"

    And now for the final card today. This one was made by Paula and was cased from Heidi Colins.  It's called a Buckle card:

    June Paula Floral Impressions Save

    She used the Floral Impressions DSP on the front and cut a window in the front panels so the buckle could slip in.  

    Products used include the Stylish Shapes dies, Swirly EF, In Color flat pearls, and Brass Butterflies.

    June Floral Impressions Floral Save

    Measurements:

    • Card base 8 1/2" X 5 1/2" scored at 4 1/4"
    • DSP 4" X 5 1/4", inside 3 3/4" X 1/2"
