More Team Swaps include multiple ‘WOW’ cards!

August 18, 2022

Every month our Flowerbug's Team has an optional card swap and I always think it's the best group of cards ever. Then another month comes and they get even better! How is it possible?!

This first card today features the Brightest Beauty bundle seen here. It's in our Holiday catalog and has been on my wish list for awhile. I think she pushed me over the edge with her card!

Save

Her colors include Old Olive & Crushed Curry with White. I LOVE the frame she made with the Fabulous Frames dies! The rest of the dies are from the Brightest Beauty bundle. That stamped background behind the frame and the main image are wonderful together. The plain white behind the pretty flower & leaves really show the stamped image off. And that greeting die!

~~~

Next is an amazing card made by Candace. She is the expert at sponging backgrounds. Always so smooth and blended.

Who would think of adding a Hippo to Snowflakes?!! But it works perfectly.

Save

Details:

Colors include Gorgeous Grape, White, Highland Heather & Pacific Point
The Hippo is from the Hippest Hippos stamp set & dies from our Sale-a-Bration promotion.
The snowflake frame is from the Snowman dies & the Red & White glimmer paper
The embossing folder is from the Wintry duo in the Annual catalog
She achieved her beautiful background by using Blending Brushes.
The pretty 'iridescent' snowflake is from our Wonderful Snowflakes seen here
She printed the greetings on White card stock using her printer!

Next is a simple yet beautiful card made by Annette. She let the Twigs & Sprigs embossing folder take the prime spot on her card. This folder comes in a bundle with dies seen here.

Save

Her colors are Old Olive with Very Vanilla. The greeting is from the Color & Contour bundle. The offset circles add a playful touch.

Come back for more incredible swap cards tomorrow!

A Touch of Ink Fun Fold card with Oh So Ombre; quick & easy!

February 24, 2021
We made these pretty fun fold cards at my February card clubs! I think the A Touch of Ink stamp set is incredibly versatile! There was an option for everyone's needs.

Save

I shared this card on my FB Live yesterday plus two others with this paper & stamp set. You can see it here.

Save

Aren't they pretty?! I feel like these two Sale-a-Bration choices go together perfectly. The Ombre DSP lets the stamp shine though. You can get either or both free with an order through February 28th. Sale-a-Bration ends then and there won't be anymore 'free' with purchase options.

Go here to see the A Touch of Ink stamp set and here to see the Oh So Ombre DSP.

Beautiful Love You Always Foil Specialty paper

February 23, 2021

Last weekend we held our monthly card swap with my Flowerbug's Team. The theme was to use Specialty paper on their card.

The cards I'm sharing today all feature the Love You Always Specialty Foil papers. Did you know we have two kinds? A smooth foil seen here and printed foil seen here.

This first card was created by Karen G. She used both specialty papers with the Always in My Heart bundle. The Floral Heart dies are gorgeous! I love the heart and that banner!!!

Save

This next beauty was created by Candace. She also used both of these pretty specialty papers along with the 'Love You More Than' dies. The embossing folder is the Parisian Flourish 3D seen here.

Save

And lastly, this striking card was made by Mary. She combined the Love You Always paper with the True Love DSP.

Save

She fussy cut the flowers from the True Love DSP and colored them with Blends markers. The Best Wishes is from the Art Gallery bundle.

Aren't my gals talented though!

Creative Cards Simple Sketch #CC2

February 22, 2021

Get inspired by sketches! You can find them everywhere online; especially on Pinterest. Just search for card sketches and you'll be amazed at the great layouts you'll come up with.

I've started a weekly challenge with my Flowerbug's Team where I share a card sketch or color challenge. I'm calling them Creative Cards or #CC. Here's the one we did last week:

Save

And here's the card I came up with.

Save

I chose to use the Playing with Patterns designer paper and a new product that's coming out to everyone in March. It's called Butterfly Bouquet and it has gorgeous Designer Paper and a beautiful stamp & dies bundle. The stamp & dies will be out in the upcoming 2021 Annual Catalog in May. But they're releasing it early in March!

Demonstrators can order it now in February. On the card above I used mostly the DSP with just one purple die-cut. The greeting is from one of my favorite greeting sets; Happy Thoughts.

There are now just 7 days left of Sale-a-Bration!!!

That means you have one week to either purchase the Starter Kit deal (seen below) or get free stamps or paper! Don't wait!
