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.

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!

Gathering Moments swap; I love creating my own paper!

September 4, 2025

Here’s a pretty card I made for one of the online swaps I joined last month:

Save

I used the new Gathering Moments stamp set with the new Traditional Labels dies.

The card stock colors are Lost Lagoon, Timid Tiger and Very Vanilla. Inks are Timid Tiger, Lost Lagoon, Pretty Peacock and Pecan Pie.

After stamping I used a Blending Brush to add Lost Lagoon ink around the edges and on the greeting die-cut too.

I love creating cards for swaps! I find it very relaxing to make multiples of my creations.

Save

You can see this stamp set here. It has a set of dies as well. See the Traditional Labels dies here.

Save

I’ll be sharing many more cards with this pretty new bundle next week.
