More Monochromatic swaps featuring flowers


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!

  • Springtime Scenes diagonal fold – 2 ways!


    I’m excited to share this neat card with you today. We made it at my April Card Clubs.

    Isn’t it beautiful? It features the Springtime Scenes bundle seen here and the Delicate Dreams DSP seen here. This DSP is so pretty they cannot keep it in stock! Be sure to add your email to the product so you get notified when it comes back in stock.

    This card might look like it’s difficult but it’s as simple as trimming off one half of the card front at a diagonal and flipping it over. Yup; that’s it! Watch my video below to see how it’s done.

    My colors include Secret Sea, Hydrangea Hue (new in color), White and Crumb Cake. The largest circle is from the Spotlight on Nature dies seen here. The small White circle is from Stylish Shapes dies.

    We tried this layout in both landscape & vertical position. Which do you prefer?

    I created a free project sheet for this card with measurements, directions, photos and supplies listed. Click here to download or print it.

    Below is the video tutorial with tips on assembly.
