More incredible By the Bay card samples!


Yesterday I shared 5 gorgeous cards my team member Bobby made with the By the Bay suite. See the entire suite here. 

She is our Artist of the Month on my Flowerbug's Team and chose the Seaside Bay bundle for her projects.  She is a very talented stamper and a fabulous photographer too! 

This first card is unbelievable Pillar Pop-Up card and was cased from Rachel Tessman. 

It's so cool!  This card truly shows off this suite and the stunning gold accents in the By the Bay designer paper.  

Can you see the little DSP pillars in the photo below?  The entire upper panel is adhered to two little pillars and they fold flat for mailing too.  I had to make one myself and chose to use the Adorable Owls for my card.  You can see it here on my video.  Measurements too! 

This next card is a Book Binding fold. Her card base is Balmy blue and that pretty shell designer paper is adhered to narrow White layers. 

It also shows off the soft Balmy Blue variegated ribbon that's new in our Spring catalog.  

When making a book binding fold card you will adhere the front left edge to the back so only the large layer on the left opens.  Tip: If adding ribbon you may want to wrap it behind before you secure the scored edge together.  

Measurements:

  • Balmy Blue 4 1/4" X 11" scored at 4 1/2" & 5 1/2"
  • White 4 1/8" X 7/8" and 4 1/8" square
  • DSP 3/4" X 4" and 4" square

See the By the Bay 6 X 6" specialty designer paper here.  It's so beautiful I chose it for one of my January card kits to go.  I have just 3 left; see the kit or PDF here.  

Next is a simple but super pretty card with just a square of the By the Bay designer paper set onto a layer of Gold Foil.  The nice thing about doing this is you can die-cut your elements from the center of the Gold foil and no one can tell!  


Cards with mostly White draw your eye to the main element as you can see here.  She stamped her greeting on the White layer before texturing it with the Timeworn Type embossing folder seen here.  Pool Party is her accent color.  

Measurements:

  • The DSP is 2 7/8" square and the gold foil is 3" square. 
  • The white layer is 4" X 5 1/4" and Pool Party is 4 1/8" X 5 3/8" 

Her next card is an easel card and it shows off the clam shell die in the Seaside Bay bundle.  It is scored and hinges open to reveal a pretty pearl gem inside.  

She cased it from Julia Quinn.  That pretty clam shell and the designer paper layer is what holds the easel up.  So neat!  

Measurements:

  • Balmy Blue 5 1/2" X 4 1/4"
  • Sahara Sand easel 5 1/4" X 8" scored at 4 and 6"
  • White – 2 pieces measuring 5 1/8" X 3 7/8"
  • DSP one at 5 X 3 3/4" and one at 5" X 1 1/2" 

Next and last is an exquisite card featuring just Sahara Sand, foils and white.  Love the soothing colors here!

This pretty card was cased from Gail Ellis and shows off the textured die-cuts when done in foil. 

Measurements:

  • White 5 1/4" X 4" and 5 1/4" X 2 3/4"
  • DSP squares 1 1/2"
  • Sahara Sand squares 1 5/8" squares & two strips for the torn edge on the shells area 
  • two gold strips 1/2" X 5 1/4"

I hope you've enjoyed seeing the beautiful cards Bobby created to show off the Seaside Bay bundle. She sure did a fantastic job didn't she?

  • 2 more Season of Elegance & Peaceful Season cards with free project sheets & video


    Yesterday I shared a gorgeous fancy fold card and today I have two more pretty cards as well.  They all feature the Season of Elegance suite. 

    I'll start with this one which has Basic Beige, Pretty Peacock and Gold:

    I love so many things about this card – the pretty dies and that fabulous Painted Trees 3D embossing folder too.  I adhered the Season of Elegance DSP (seen here) to the Beige layer before I textured it.  A neat trick to showcase them both.  

    Notice the 'Merry' die-cut layers. There isn't a coordinating larger die-cut for this so I cut this in half horizontally to add a nice gold layer above and below. *watch the video here or below to see how I did it.

    Here's a view of this gorgeous designer paper:

    Next is a pretty card featuring the Cherry Cobbler and Gold DSP in this pack.  

    It also shows off the pretty die-cuts once again.  I really like the ribbon slots in three of the dies in the set. Here I used the gorgeous Cherry Cobbler/Gold satin ribbon seen here.  

    This Peaceful Season bundle is a big hit with many of my customers.  It has beautiful die-cuts and the greetings are wonderful as well. 

    I'm sure the embossing folder caught your eye as well.  It's the Forever Plaid 3D folder.  It's one of our large folders so I could place the Beige CS on an angle.

    I especially like this layout as it truly does not matter what size your DSP layers are. Simple offset them from each other to form an interesting mix.  

    **Did you know you can get the entire Season of Elegance Suite for just $99 (regular price $154.75)?!  And shipping is free!  Add it to your Starter kit here by October 31st. An incredible deal! 

    Below is the video for these two cards and another neat fun fold too.  Don't forget to subscribe to my YouTube channel too.

  • This Season of Elegance fancy fold is extra special and has a gift card option


    I shared this card on last week's FB Live video.  It's also part of my October kit to go and PDF tutorial as well.  It's unique and truly shows off our double sided designer paper! 

    Can you see how it opens? The left panel opens up to reveal another flap that also opens. This Cherry Cobbler layer is scored to allow a gift card to be inserted in the pocket.  If you don't need one, just adhere it down or trim it off.

It includes everything you need – a greetings stamp set, Misty Moonlight ink spot, adhesives, gems, card layers, envelopes and a clear block. 

    All of the kits in our Kit Collection (28 of them!) are discounted!  Click here to see all 28 kits. 

    This kit was $22 and is now $19.80 and you can see it here.   

    These beautiful cards remind me of our trip to the Grand Tetons, Wyoming last month. And also our trip to Norway last year! 

    Guess what!?  The Expressions of Kindness kit is back in stock!!  It's been out of stock for over a month. It's one of my very favorite kits and it's also discounted. click here to see it.
