More Team Swaps include multiple ‘WOW’ cards!

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!  

August Deloris Brightest Beauty 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.  

August Deloris Brightest Beauty 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.

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 beautiful card with Thankful Garden bundle & masks – with lots of tips in the video!

    Today I'm sharing the cards we made at my March card clubs.  I also shared it in last week's video. 

    Thankful Garden Club March Save

    I featured the Thankful Garden bundle from our Online Exclusives.  This bundle includes a stamp set, coordinating dies and the set of 5 masks.  Click here to see it online.  

    THANKFUL GARDEN BUNDLE (ENGLISH) Save

    I shared quite a few helpful tips on using these masks in the video here.  Using them with our Blending Brushes truly makes you feel like an artist!  You get the multi-colored & layered effect so easily. 

    Thankful Garden Club Save

    The greetings here are from the Unbounded Love stamp set.  My colors include Fresh Freesia, Black, Lemon Lime Twist and Balmy Blue.  

    Can you notice the 4 differences between the cards below?  Which one is your favorite?

  • Textured Notes & Botanical Textures fun fold card with video tutorial

    I shared this fun fold card on last week's video. We also made it at my Team meeting in March. 

    Botanical Textures accordion Save

    The back of the card is 4 1/4" X 5 1/2" but the center is an accordion style fold that shows off your designer paper. 

    I used the Dashing Designs embossing folder on the Azure Afternoon layer – it's on the Last Chance list here. 

    The stamp set is the Textured Notes and the DSP is the Botanical Textures.  If you follow me you'll realize I cannot get enough of both of these products!  

    Here's the view with the card opened:

  • New Catalog sneak peak inspired by a fun sketch

    Today I'm sharing a sneak peek of new products from the upcoming 2025 Annual Catalog by Stampin' Up!  

    Florals in Bloom swap Save

    I chose the Florals in Bloom designer paper and the Impressions Abloom stamp set plus new gems too!  My colors include Petunia Pop and Secret Sea plus white.  

    This layout was inspired by the following sketch.  I absolutely love using sketches for my inspiration.  I knew I wanted to feature the DSP but wasn't sure of my plan. This sketch fit the bill perfectly! 

    I made another pretty card that's totally different with this same sketch.  See it here.  

    Sketch 5a Save

    As you can see I did not follow it exactly.  My DSP measures 2 3/4" X 4" and 2 1/4" X 3".  The diagonal layer (secret sea) is 1 1/8" wide.  

    The stamped greetings are from the 'The Right Words' stamp set.  One of my new favorite greeting sets.  You're going to love it!

    I'll share another card featuring new products tomorrow.
