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?

  • A fun layout for the Full of Life designer paper – video & free project sheet too!


    Before I share today's project I have to shout out that the new Holiday catalog starts today! Plus my Open House & BOGO event is today from 4:30 – 6 pm. 

    ~~~

    I LOVE the Full of Life designer series paper!  This card shows just how fabulous it is!

    The clouds and sun die-cuts make this card extra special. They're from the Brightest Skies dies seen here.  The greeting is from the My Small Business stamp set seen here. 

    It was one of my August Card Club projects and everyone loved it. I coordinated the designer paper to match the card bases; here's another example below:

    The greeting for this one is from the Trusty Tools stamp set.

  • Unique fun fold card with the new Regal Winter suite – free project sheet & video too


    I shared the neatest fun fold card on last week's video.  It features the upcoming new suite called Regal Winter from the Holiday Catalog.  This catalog goes live on Wednesday, September 4th. 

    My colors were inspired by the beautiful Regal Winter designer series paper. Fresh Freesia, Blackberry Bliss & White. 

    It looks like a normal card front doesn't it?  It's not!  The right side has a fold to it and the edge is tucked under the diagonal layer. 

    Isn't that neat?  And it's super easy to make too, but to understand it you may have to watch the video below. Or click here to see it.  

    Here's the view of the inside once opened.  That center Blackberry Layer is attached to only the left side. The DSP strip is centered on it and helps you center the whole piece between the two outer flaps.  It's easy; watch the video! 

    **I'll be sharing two more pretty cards featuring this new suite on Tuesday's FB Live video (Sept 3rd). If you're on Facebook I hope you're following me.  If not find me here.
