More fabulous Flowerbug’s Christmas cards


I shared some of my Team Christmas card swaps yesterday here.  And today there's more beauties; all made with stamps from the 2021 Holiday Stampin' Up! catalog.

this first card was made by Candy using the Reflected in Nature stamp set & Welcoming Woods.  I LOVE her colors of Navy, Cherry Cobbler, White & Smoky Slate.  A gorgeous card!

Next is a super neat fun-fold window card made by Candace.  She used the Penguin Place bundle in Navy, Coastal Cabana, White & Black. The penguins are extra special punched from Black glimmer paper. 

At first glance it looks like a regular card front.  But wait…. look!

She cut a window on the front using our Stitched Rectangle dies revealing the cute penguin layer inside.  They're actually attached to a second card base inside that flips down. 

She used the Whimsy dies to add a stitched border to each inside layer. Love this detail. 

Isn't it cool?!  

Measurements:

  • Navy card base 4 1/4" X 11" scored at 5 1/2"
  • Coastal Cabana inside card base 5 1/4" X 8" scored at 4"
  • White pieces 4 3/8" X 2 7/8", Navy layer is also 4 3/8" X 2 7/8" inside

Barb made this unique card using the Be Jolly stamp set.  Her colors are Misty Moonlight, Red & White.  

She heat embossed the stars on the front layer with White embossing powder. She also sponged the edge.  She used our Layering Circle dies for her Santa.  But look how it flips open to reveal a greeting!

Such a fun surprise and it's just a 1/2" flap hidden under the front layers.  So smart! 

Here's the inside view: 

I love sharing what my Flowerbug's Team make; they're fabulous stampers!

  • Encircled in Nature in Autumn colors – free project sheet & video tutorial


    I shared this pretty card on last week's Live video. I featured the Encircled in Nature bundle.

    My colors include Basic Beige, Cajun Craze and Old Olive.  I used Daffodil Delight, Peach Pie and Calypso Coral for the sunset, adding each color softly with Blending Brushes.

    I textured the extra layer (4" X 5 1/4") of Basic Beige with the Birch Wood 3D embossing folder seen here. Then I lightly sponged Basic Beige ink over it with a Blending Brush. I added Cajun Craze & Old Olive ink to the die-cut leaves with. 

    This pretty bundle is one of our Online Exclusives; available while supplies last.  It's already been out for awhile so I'm wondering how much longer it will be available. *if you want it act fast! 

    Here's a photo of the bundle; click here to see it online. 

    Besides the video tutorial below here's the free project sheet for it. Click on the following link to download or print it. Download Encircled in Nature Fall wreath

    I cut the wreath circle from both layers at the same time, saving one for the sunset layer adhered inside the card. 

    I finished it off with some 2023-25 In Color sparkle gems. Catch the video tutorial below to get the tips on creating this card.

  • Wow Team swaps for a fun Coaster Calendar!


    This month my Flowerbug's Team decided to do a Coaster Calendar swap.  This was super fun and quite easy when you could make multiples of the month you chose.  I do love swapping! 

    We could use retired or current products on these swaps which opened up a lot of possibilities for creativity! 

    The first group are January through June:

    This next group is July through December:

    They're all 4" square and the layer for the printed calendars (which haven't been added yet here) are 2 1/4" square. We punch holes in the top of each and add two 4" card board coasters to the front and the back for stability. *these were purchased online years ago. The printed calendar was created by my husband and I cut it up into 2" squares. 

    Here's how I decorated the front of mine:  I kept it quite simple; a 4" square piece of Winter Meadow DSP along with a die-cut and the year cut out with number dies.  I trimmed the corners to match the coaster. 

    Here's the next group of swaps; some are the same as those above since a few people did multiple groups of the same month. 

    These are January through June: 

    And these are July through December:

    Each one is fabulous!  I love seeing everyone's personal style.
