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.  

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 neat Tower card with video & free project sheet with Peaceful Garden

  December 3, 2025

  ---

  I just love this fun fold ‘tower’ card layout! It gives you lots of opportunities to feature your designer paper.

  Save

  I featured the Peace on Earth bundle and the Modern Garden designer paper. The colors include White, Secret Sea and Silver. The Peace on Earth bundle was a ‘must have’ for me because of the pretty greetings and layering die-cuts. I like that the greetings include more than just Christmas making it quite versatile.

  Save

  This Tower card fun fold is made with a 11″ X 4 1/4″ piece of card stock but scored 5 times across the long edge. Then you simply adhere the ends together and allow the other end to open. Genius!

  Save

  Note how the center panel swivels a bit…. I stamped one card with a holiday greeting and the other with a sympathy greeting. You can see the back side of the Holiday card here. I pulled out a Paper Pumpkin stamp set to fit.

  Save

  I love the textured embossing on the left White panel. That is from the Peaceful Greenery embossing folder seen here. I used just the side of this folder to achieve the textured edge.

  Save

  I created a free project sheet for this card; simply click on this link to print or download it.

  Here’s the tip on how the front panel swivels a bit on the fold. So easy to achieve!

  Save

  It’s two strips of card stock about 1/2″ wide and 1″ long folded in half. Each half is adhered with the fold on the main card fold.

  Below is the video tutorial for this card, another pretty Christmas card and a candy bar treat holder.

• An easy Gift Card idea for Christmas with free project sheet

  December 1, 2025

  ---

  I shared this pretty card on last week’s video. It has an option for a gift card hidden inside.

  Save

  Isn’t it pretty? I featured the Modern Christmas suite here with the specialty DSP and the Ornamental Christmas bundle seen here.

  Save

  I just love the font on the greetings and the unique coordinating dies in this bundle.
  My colors are classy in Black, White and Gold foil. You might notice two different embossing folders on the White layer. One is the Traditional Wreath 3D and the other is the Forever Plaid 3D.

  There is a scored line on the front layer to create a pocket for a gift card inside. I used a punch to create a bit of interest on it.

  Save

  What do you think of this color combination for Christmas? I worried some might not like it but everyone at my Clubs loved this card. The Modern Christmas designer paper seen here is gorgeous with it’s fun patterns.

  I did heat emboss the greeting with Gold embossing powder and punched it out with the Labeled with Love punch. The bits of Gold foil all over this card really make it special!

  I created a free project sheet for this card and also a video with tips & step by step directions. Click here to print or download it.

  Save

  You can watch the video below to see how to assemble this card. There are also two more projects you’ll want to see!
