February 6, 2023

Save

Fabulous swaps by my Flowerbug’s Team using new Stampin’ Up! products

February 3, 2023

My Flowerbug's Team has optional swaps each month. This month we used new Spring or Sale-a-Bration catalog products. You're going to love these cards!

Roxanne made this cool card using the 'Way to Grow' stamp set seen here. I think it's a totally new style of images we haven't seen before by Stampin' Up! She shows it off wonderfully!

Save

She did do a bit of fussy cutting – the hair, shirt and pants. Notice the shirt is stamped on Dandy Designs paper from the SAB catalog! So cute!

Look at the card sample on page 38 of the Spring catalog; she cased the layout on the bottom. This is a great reminder that we can use the catalog samples as inspiration.

Her colors are Coastal Cabana, Pear Pizzazz with Crumb Cake in the ribbon. The Pear Pizzazz layer is textured with the Brick & Mortar 3D folder.

~~~

Next is a special card made by Annette. She gives out calendar cards to her friends each year, so she made one for our swap participants too. She orders these calendars online; there are several sites. Look on Amazon or Google for mini tear off calendars.

Save

She featured the new Friendly Gnomes stamp set here. Isn't the coloring and shading beautiful? She used Blends markers to color and ink and blending brushed for the background. The gnome is die-cut with the Gnomes dies – they carried over from the Holiday catalog through May 1st.

The designer paper is from the Dandy Designs pack – from our Sale-a-Bration catalog. It's a big pack of 48 sheets; free with any $100 order from Stampin' Up! See it here.

Next today is a cute Easter card made by Candy. She used the Easter Bunny stamp set seen here. It has a coordinating Easter Bunny punch too!

Save

Her card is a fun fold – called a Book Binding card fold. It starts out with a 4 1/4" X 11" card stock. Score it at 4 1/4" and 5 1/2". The Dainty Flowers SAB DSP is 1 1/8" X 4". The card stock layer is 4" square.

She stamped and colored the bunny; then fussy cut it to pop up on the Stylish Shapes & Layering Circles dies. Her embossing folder is the Pretty Flowers folder in the annual catalog. Other additions are the Brushed Brass butterflies and Navy bordered ribbon.

If you love to swap you'll love our Team swaps; consider joining our Flowerbug's Team! Or maybe you just want to be a part of a friendly stamping group! It's a great time to choose the Starter Kit deal; details here or below.

A Mystery Card Floating technique with the pretty Dainty Flowers

February 2, 2023
Every few months we have a Mystery Card challenge with my Flowerbug's Team. I put together packets of papers and elements and send them to those who opt in. They have a month to make a project using the supplies in their 'Mystery' packet and of course there are prizes too.

This month I featured papers from the Dainty Flowers designer paper from the Sale-a-Bration catalog. Here's my card:

Save

I had multiple pieces of the designer paper, pieces of Mossy Meadow, a white and Mossy circle and the Rich Razzleberry card base. They could use as many or as few of the elements that they wanted or add extras too.

Floating Technique: I cut one of my DSP layers into 1/2" strips and adhered them to a piece of window sheet. Then I cut it out with a stitched circle die from the Stylish Shapes dies.
Save

It's such a unique & unexpected element to a card. I added some die-cuts from the Dainty Delight dies too.

Save

Measurements:
- Rich Razzleberry card base 5 1/2" X 8 1/2"
- DSP 2" X 4 1/4", circle element is 2 1/2"
- White layer 2 1/4" X 4 1/2"
