More amazing Clean & Simple swap cards by the Flowerbug’s


I shared 4 of our Team swaps yesterday and today I'm sharing more. They're all incredible! 

Our theme was to create cards that are 'Clean & Simple' without any designer paper.  This is NOT easy for some advanced stampers! 

First up is Karen's card which is just her style: 

She used the Mini corrugated 3D embossing folder seen here and linen thread.  Plus the Painted Lavender & Friends for Life die-cuts on her Basic Beige & White card.  

Next is a stunning card made by Paula.  She used the new Thankful Garden bundle seen here.

Her colors include Very Vanilla & Crumb Cake. She heat embossed the floral image in Gold embossing powder. The background is made with the Thankful Garden stencils included in the bundle.  

Just gorgeous Paula!!

And look at the incredible card Jacki made!  

She used the Friends for Life dies and the Waves 3D embossing folder.  Simply White with a pop of Black for an elegant look. 

Next is Joan's monochromatic card featuring the Coffee with Friends stamp set:

She used Pecan Pie and colored the images in with watercolor pencils.  Beautifully done!  

I'll share the last of our swaps tomorrow!

  • Hey Girlfriend for adorable images!


    Has this cute stamp set caught your eye?  It's the Million Dollar stamp set for April Lopez.  It's so adorable and a blast to color too. 

    Audrey, on my Flowerbug's Team is an expert at coloring and she gave me a few samples made with this set.  *All I had to do was layer it and create a finished card with her beautiful colored image!  Love that!  

    I used Sahara Sand as my card base and a few 1/4" strips of Black & White. The oval greeting with a Resin Heart finished it off!

  • 3 Fun Projects & Video with the Circle Celebration stamp set


    I tried not to order the Circle Celebration stamp set but it kept calling out 'Order me!'  So I caved….and am so glad I did!  The images seem like they're almost 'retro' style which I love.  I do enjoy creating my own stamped background and these are perfect for that.  

    Today I'm focusing on the cards on the right.  I made them with the Bokeh technique.  It's so fun and almost 3D in appearance.  

    You start out with a sponged background. I used our new Blending Brushes that are awesome! They are currently out of stocks but should be back at the end of March.

    Randomly sponge ink colors onto our Basic White CS.  Choose colors that somewhat coordinate if possible.  this can be difficult for some who struggle with color combos. I choose colors that when mixed do not make mud.  How do I know which colors don't mix?  Trial and error of course!  Here I used Night of Navy, Bermuda Bay and Gorgeous Grape.  Aren't these colors gorgeous together?!!!

    *Another combo I might pick are yellows, oranges & reds.  Or greens & blues!  

    Once you're done you add sponged circles using White Craft ink.  I made my own stencils by punching circles out of card stock.  I share tips on using and re-inking our White Craft ink in the video below.

    The greeting is from the Best Year stamp set in the Annual Catalog and the butterflies AND white dotted die-cut 'holes' are from the new Brilliant Wings bundle seen here.

    Here is the video; I hope you watch it to see how to make these fun projects!

  • Hot Dog; what an amazing fun fold card!


    Have you been enjoying the window cards I've shared this week?  I have more coming tomorrow!   My Flowerbug's Team amaze me each and every month.  They really put effort into creating incredible projects like this fun & amazing card Annette made with the Hot Dot stamp set!  

    I was blown away by it! She based her colors off of the Playful Pets designer paper seen here. *this will likely retire in a week!

    It took a lot of time and effort into lining up the Stitched Nested Label dies so the Real Red window lined up with the inside layers.  She told me that she adhered the designer paper to the front of the card before die-cutting the window.  She did by placing the die between the layers cutting side up; in the middle of the card itself. That takes some patience in lining it all up! 

    Products Used:

    Measurements: 

    • Black Card base 5 1/2" X 8 1/2" scored at 2 1/8" and 6 3/8"
    • White inside 4" X 5 1/4"
    • DSP on front 2" X 5 1/4" and inside are 3/4" X 5 1/4"
