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!

Quick Card template & cute Christmas treats & snowman tags

December 16, 2020
I shared a ton of Holiday projects on this week's FB Live. You can see the video below but here are the projects:

Save

I used the Brightly Gleaming Specialty DSP here along with Very Vanilla, Navy, Brass foil and Peacock CS. This pretty paper is on sale at 50% off! See it here.

This is one of the easiest layouts you can make that still has some layers to it. I like the card below best since you can stamp directly on the single layer and do not need a second greeting piece to stamp on like the cards on the left & right above. Measurements below:

Save

Easy Christmas card
- Main card – 8 ½” X 5 ½” or 4 ¼” X 11”, DSP – 3” square
- CS – 4 ¼” X 3 ¼”, Vanilla greeting layer is 7/8" X 3", Foil strip – ½” X 4”
Next I have a super cute candy box treat made by my friend Marilyn. She used the Celebration Label dies; they're 50% off now while supplies last! See them here.

Save

Celebration Labels Treat box
- Use the largest 2 dies. Center the CS die-cut at 6”; score at 5 3/8” and 6 5/8”
- Box is 2 3/8” X 5 1/8” scored at ½” on each edge
Save

Next is a fun candy bar pull up treat. I love making these since they're so quick & easy.

Save

Santa Pull Up Treat

Red CS 6 1/2" X 7" score at 3/8", 3/4", 3 1/2" and 3 7/8".

Black glitter belt 1" X 7"

This candy bar is in a thin card board box so I had to score it. Usually I just wrap the card stock around the candy bar and glue the edge overlapping each other. That one is a lot quicker.

Save

Lastly is a sweet snowman tag.

Save

It's a piece of Snowflake Splendor DSP and White CS both measuring 4 1/2" X 2" and tied together at the top. I used the Delightful Tag Topper & 2" circle punches here. The stitched nose is made with the Triangle dies. I drew Black 'stones' with a marker for his smile.

Below you can get the tips on putting these projects together. Don't forget to subscribe to my YouTube channel here.

I thought I'd share a few Christmas cards I've received lately.

Jean sent me this pretty Christmas card using the Sweetest Time bundle seen here.

The Sweetest Border dies are so neat! I love how you get a solid edge but the detailed candy canes all in one.
