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!

  • More Christmas card swaps; creative ideas for you!


    Yesterday I shared an elegant Christmas card swap made by one of my Flowerbug’s; today I’ll share a few cute ones. Which is your style?

    First up is a sweet card made by Candace who chose the Gingerbread Man bundle seen here.

    She heat embossed the gingerbread outline on Pecan Pie card stock and die-cut it with the coordinating die. She also stamped the hat and scarf images with heat embossing too. Love the sheet-pan effect the Silver Foil paper gives here! So cute!

    Next is an adorable card made by Joan who featured the Homemade Treats bundle seen here. Another sheet pan with gingerbread on it! So cute.

    Her colors include Basic Beige, Real Red, Silver, Early Espresso & Pecan Pie. Each of the elements are stamps & coordinating dies from this cute Homemade Treats bundle seen here.

    The next card is made by Kathy who used the North Pole Delivery designer series paper for this gatefold card:

    Her colors include Real Red, Shaded Spruce and Petal Pink. See this cute suite here. It’s great for the animal lovers out there.

    And lastly today is this center fold card made by Barb who used the Festive Friends bundle seen here.

    She also used the Waves 3D folder in the back and the Christmas Tags & More DSP for the plaid strips. Here’s the inside view:

    Stay tuned; I’ll share more swaps tomorrow!

  • Modern Christmas card idea


    Today I have a gorgeous Christmas card idea from our October Team swap. Each month my Flowerbug’s swap cards with a chosen theme.
    This first card was made by Jacki who chose the Modern Christmas suite.

    Her colors include White, Black and Gold foil accents as indicated by the gorgeous Modern Christmas designer paper seen here. If you love it I have a pre-cut card kit or PDF tutorial you can opt in for too. And it’s also my free tutorial of the month for any online order.

    The embossing folder is the So Swirly 3D and her greeting is from the Greetings for You Mix & Match ephemera seen here. This pack of greetings has 6 sheets of gold foil printed greetings!

    She used many of the dies in the Ornamental Christmas bundle seen here. I love the gold foil on the ornament. This card is truly elegant!

    I love the elegance of the Black, White & Gold.

    I’ll be sharing many more of our October Christmas themed card swaps by my Team this week and next. Stay tuned!

  • Wow! Look at this incredible Light & Wonder scene


    Here’s a gorgeous card I shared on last week’s Live video: Are you following me on YouTube here? Or Facebook here? Don’t miss out on my weekly videos!

    My colors include Cloud Cover, Black, Misty Moonlight, Gorgeous Grape, Highland Heather, White & Timid Tiger. Inks are Highland Heather, Cloud Cover, Black & Timid Tiger.


    It’s made with the Light & Wonder bundle seen here. The dies are amazing at creating scenes! Look at the layered mountains, trees and that water die-cut!
    Sponging makes a big difference! I sponged the top of the mountains with purple ink, the water with Cloud Cover ink and the sun with Timid Tiger ink.

    Tip: Can you see the ‘water lines’ I created with a Wink of Stella pen? So cool!

    This is one of my favorite cards I’ve made in awhile. I hope you like it too!

    I got the layout idea for this card from Amanda Mertz on Pinterest but changed it up a bit. I love creating scenes and when I saw this suite it was an absolute must have for me. See it here.

    I created a free project sheet for this card. Click on this link to access it.

    Below is the video tutorial for this card and another easy card layout using this suite.
