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!  

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.

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!

  Isn't this a beautiful combination? 

  I realize that a card I made a few months ago almost meets this challenge.

  It's also a fun fold card as well.  Here's a link to the video.

• Wow! Check out this fabulous fun fold that’s actually easy! Video & free project sheet too

  I'm super excited to share this neat fancy fold card with you today.  I made it on a recent video which I've added towards the bottom of this post.  

  Save

  I chose to use the beautiful Botanical Textures DSP seen here with Petunia Pop, Black & White.

  It starts out with a 11" X 4 1/4" piece of card stock that you score three times.  Then you add a 'bridge or brace' in the center that does the fun pop-up work.  Watch the video to see how it's done. And check out the free project sheet below too.  
  

  Save

  I stamped the greeting with the Linked Together stamp set and the leaves with the Textured Notes stamp set. The greeting die-cuts are from the Stylish Shapes and Spotlight on Nature dies. 

  It folds perfectly flat for mailing too!

  I hope you'll watch the video below to see how to assemble this neat card. It's super fun to play with.
