Modern Christmas card idea

October 15, 2025

Today I have a gorgeous Christmas card idea from our October Team swap. Each month my Flowerbug’s swap cards with a chosen theme.
This first card was made by Jacki who chose the Modern Christmas suite.

Her colors include White, Black and Gold foil accents as indicated by the gorgeous Modern Christmas designer paper seen here. If you love it I have a pre-cut card kit or PDF tutorial you can opt in for too. And it’s also my free tutorial of the month for any online order.

The embossing folder is the So Swirly 3D and her greeting is from the Greetings for You Mix & Match ephemera seen here. This pack of greetings has 6 sheets of gold foil printed greetings!

She used many of the dies in the Ornamental Christmas bundle seen here. I love the gold foil on the ornament. This card is truly elegant!

I love the elegance of the Black, White & Gold.

I’ll be sharing many more of our October Christmas themed card swaps by my Team this week and next. Stay tuned!

3 neat cards with the All Squared Away bundle; FB Live replay

August 5, 2021
Here are the cards I made on last Tuesday's FB Live featuring the All Squared Away bundle. Fresh Freesia is the color of the day!

Save

I stamped the solid images in the set in three colors; Fresh Freesia, Pool Party & Pear Pizzazz. Then I trimmed them so they'd fit behind the die-cut floral squares. I added rolled up mini glue dots for just a bit of a lift and added them to the White layer. Sometimes you want a lift that's not very thick; rolled up glue dots do the trick! That next texture is the Bark 3D folder I used seen here.

Save

The greeting is from Biggest Wish stamp set – stamped on Fresh Freesia CS and fussy cut. Those pretty gems are the fabulous, iridescent In Color jewels.

This next card is a unique color combination gatefold card made with the same bundle:

Pretty Pumpkin bundle in Gold!

August 4, 2021

Marilyn made this card for my display last week using the Pretty Pumpkins bundle seen here. She used the Gold & Rose Gold Metallic specialty paper here on her layer and die-cuts. She got the idea from a card made by Christi Redding. It's gorgeous!

Save

I had a hard time getting a great photo of this card. The gold metallic paper is so much prettier than this photo shows!

She fussy cut her greeting and added some gold cording underneath. The texture on the Vanilla layer is from the Tasteful Textile folder.

The Pretty Pumpkins bundle slipped right by me!

August 3, 2021

I regret not ordering the Pretty Pumpkins set after seeing what my friend Marilyn made with it. Look at these gorgeous images!

Save

She made them for my New Catalog launch last week. I think they're simply beautiful and that greetings font is beautiful!!

Save

She made 3 cards for our display and this is the second one. I'll share the last one soon.

The pretty paper is from the Harvest Meadow Designer Series Paper. I believe she used the baby wipe technique for the left pumpkin. For the right one she added Wink of Stella to the die-cut pumpkin.

Save

Again; look at the stunning font on this fabulous greeting. I have so many friends I'd give this card to!
