More Monochromatic swaps featuring flowers

August 20, 2025

I’m sharing more of my Team’s monochromatic swaps today. These pretty cards all feature flowers.

This first stunning card is made by Barb who used the Spotlight on Nature stamp set. I was shocked to see it on the Last Chance list and it’s already out of stock!

Joan is a master at coloring! Look at the shadow effect she achieved on the flowers and leaves! It looks like it’s raised but it’s simply stamped and Blends marker was added all around the image.

The other stamps she used are Sentimental Framing and Textured Notes. The inks are Granny Apple Green & Memento Black. She added Holographic Resin Dots, a linen thread bow and Wink of Stella on the butterfly to finish it off.

She gave me measurements I can share with you too!

Lemon Lime Twist 4 1/4″ X 5 1/2″
Granny Apple Green 3 1/2″ X 11″ scored at 5 1/2″
White 3 1/4″ X 5 1/2″, inside is 3″ X 5″, greeting is 3 1/4″ X 1″
Season of Elegance DSP 2 pieces at 3/4″ X 5 1/2″

Here’s a view of the card opened:

You’ve created a beautiful card Joan!

Next is a card made by Joan’s mom, Barb. It’s her first time swapping with us and she did a wonderful job!

Barb chose the Gallery Blooms stamp set. She stamped the flower in Night of Navy and used Wink of Stella to pull the color into the image. Very cool idea!

She used the Textured Notes dies (2nd & 3rd largest) for her blue layers of Night of Navy and Blueberry Bushel.

Measurements:

Night of Navy card base 4 1/4″ X 11″ score at 5 1/2″
Blueberry Bushel 4 3/4″ X 3/4″, scrap for greeting
White 2 3/4″ X 4 1/2″ for die-cut, inside is 3 1/2″ X 4 3/4″

Beautiful job Barb!

Next is a pretty card made by Candace featuring the pretty Charming Day bundle seen here.

Her colors include White, Soft Seafoam and Basic Gray. She added color to the floral die-cut with Blends markers and then added Wink of Stella to all of the die-cuts.

The pretty leaf die-cuts also have Soft Seafoam Blends added. The texture is the Exposed Brick embossing folder seen here. I just love the clean look of this pastel color with White.

Here’s the inside view. Simply stamping the flower image in the same ink is a beautiful say to finish it.

I’ll be sharing our swap cards all week; stay tuned!

A CUTE Kite Delight card idea; shared in a video with blending & coloring tips

May 1, 2022

Here is another playful card made with the Kite Delight stamp set in the 2022 January-June Stampin' Up! catalog.

Save

I used a Blending Brush and Coastal Cabana ink to create a soft sky background. Then the kite tails were stamped using Black Memento ink and colored in with Blends markers. Each kit was stamped using the coordinating color of card stock – Highland Heather, Daffodil Delight and Coastal Cabana. They are fussy cut since there is not a set of dies to match. I don't mind this at all since they're easy to cut out.

This stamp set is NOT carrying over into the new catalog and will retire at the end of May. See it here:

Save

I used the Pick a Banner punch on the Highland Heather greeting banner. The banner & kits are all popped up on Stampin' Dimensionals.

I also created two other cards during the video. See all three cards below:

This first card features three of the new In Colors from the brand new Annual Catalog. They're Sweet Sorbet (red), Parakeet Party (green) and Tahitian Tide (turquoise). Aren't they vibrant and eye catching!

I call this card a Dutch Door card fold. It's pretty easy to do and makes great use of your card stock too. Watch how with my quick tip in the video here.

This next card is one we made at my April card clubs here in Minot. It's called a Split Panel card. The designer paper is from the recently retired Pattern Party host DSP. We have a new host DSP called Design a Daydream that is just as great in the annual catalog. I love these free paper options for hosts!!

Save

My colors include Granny Apply Green, Bermuda Bay and Mango Melody. A little bit of Coastal Cabana too. We used the Cactus Builder punch for the pot, cactus and flowers. You can see the measurements below.

New In Colors paired with the Kite Delight stamp set

April 29, 2022

I shared this colorful kite card on a recent FB live video here. I wanted to use the Kite Delight stamp set and the newest In Colors coming out on May 3rd.

The kite and sun are fussy cut and the kite is colored in with new In Color Blends markers.

Save

I've been sharing the new In Colors with my Club gals this month and everyone LOVES them! They are so bright, happy & will be perfect additions to our color line.

If you're interested in getting these new In Colors you can opt in for my In Color bundle now through May 7th. See the options here. There's also an add on option for our In Color Blends markers – buy 4 get 1 free and a Designer paper share too!

I heat embossed the clouds with White embossing powder. But the image is an outline image and I wanted my clouds to be 'white'. So I used the Chalk Marker to color it in. Unfortunately it was on the retired list and is unavailable now. But two other ideas are to use a White watercolor pencil or a blender pen and White craft ink.

The Kite Delight stamp set is retiring at the end of May. I also created two other cards with it during the video. See all three cards below:
