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 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!

• Colorful Autumn Trees card with a baby wipe technique

  September 10, 2025

  ---

  Fall is in the air here in North Dakota.  Look at this gorgeous & colorful autumn tree!  

  Save

  It’s made with the new Autumn Trees bundle seen here.  Here’s how I did the tree:

  1. I stamped the tree onto Crumb Cake card stock using Crumb Cake ink.
  2. Then die-cut it with the tree die from the bundle. 
  3. Next I inked up a baby wipe with fall colors of Garden Green, Crushed Curry, Pumpkin Pie and Cajun Craze.  I rolled it up and pressed it onto the tree die-cut repeatedly. 
  4. Lastly I used a Crumb Cake Blends marker to add more detail to the trunk.  

  Save

  I used the Birch Wood embossing folder on the Vanilla background and lightly blended Cajun Craze ink over it.  The greeting is from the More Messages bundle.

  Thanks for stopping in today!

• Stack, cut & shuffle card with Gathering Together DSP – free project sheet too!

  September 9, 2025

  Here’s another beautiful autumn themed card I shared on last week’s Live video.  

  Save

  Have you ever made a triple stack, cut & shuffle card?  It’s a great way to make multiples of a card layout and use your designer paper.  Simply cut three different patterns of designer paper at 3 3/4″ X 5″.  Stack them together and cut all at the same time.  This way they’ll all fit together well once you shuffle them into 3 piles. What’s neat is that you don’t really have to measure your cuts! Watch the video below to see how it’s done.

  The designer paper here is the new Gathering Together seen here. It’s gorgeous with Champagne foil accents. This paper is part of our Online Exclusives.  To see all of these just released new items click here.  Or download & save the Download Online Exclusives flyer 

  My colors include Early Espresso, Crushed Curry and Cajun Craze.  The greeting and stamped die-cuts are from the Gathering Moments bundle seen here. The greeting die-cuts are from the Traditional Labels dies seen here. They’re my new favorite set of label dies!
