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.

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!

Ornate Garden; simply done

April 3, 2020

Today I have another card featuring the new Ornate Garden products; the new early release from the upcoming 2020 Annual Catalog. You can see all of it here.

For this card I chose to use the Ornate Border dies for the pretty edge. The greeting is from the Ornate Thanks set and the embossed daisy is from the Ornate Style stamp set.

Save

You might see a little halo around the right daisy…. I first stamped it in Terracotta Tile, but it didn't show up well enough. So I tried to stamp again to heat emboss it in White. I was off a bit but I'm okay with it anyway. The stitched oval is a die from the Stitched Shapes dies.

I made a bunch of these for a swap last month; it's a pretty easy card with just a few special 'extras'.

Stamp with me! Tonight: Thursday, April 2nd at 8 pm on Facebook Live

April 2, 2020
Sadly, my April events are all cancelled due to the current pandemic. I haven't had a month without seeing my stamping friends in many, many years! We're having virtual clubs instead this month but it just won't be the same!

I know many of you are in the same situation so I decided to do a weekly 'Stamp with Me' Facebook Live on Thursdays at 8 pm CDT. It's a virtual stamping class. Join me Thursday night, April 2nd here on my FB page.

Save

We'll be making these 3 cards plus a bonus technique I'll demonstrate. Remember you don't have to use these exact products! You can easily substitute other paper, stamps etc.

Save

If you don't have the Magnolia Lane designer paper you can use any other paper you own instead. It will be fun to see what everyone uses; we'll share our projects with each other afterwards.

Here are the supplies and measurements so you're ready to stamp with me:

Measurements:
- Card bases; one White 5 1/2" X 8 1/2", two of Mossy Meadow 4 1/4" X 11"
- Designer Paper – two designs cut at 4" square. Cut one on the diagonal in half. For the other, make a mark at 1 1/4" from the upper right and also from the lower left.
- Good Morning Magnolia stamp set
Extras: (it might look like a long list; but it's mostly accessories)
- Black Memento & Petal Pink inks
- Blends markers – Petal Pink, Light Mossy Meadow
- one large oval die-cut (largest Stitched Shape oval die or cut a rectangle at 2 1/2" X 3 1/2")
- a 1 1/2" White circle and a Petal Pink Pretty Label punched piece. (You can easily substitute any shapes here)
- Champagne rhinestones
- Petal Pink ribbon
- Sponge dauber for Petal Pink ink
- Mini glue dots
- Dimensionals
