More WOW swaps by my Flowerbug’s Team with measurements

Okay; are you as amazed by this card as I am?!  Candace made this with the Submarine Life bundle.

The bubble paper looks like it's printed but she made it! She stamped on her Pool Party card stock with Pool Party & White craft ink with the bubble image.  Incredible!

I'm not positive of the many colors she used here but I know a few include Sweet Sorbet, Blueberry Bushel, Daffodil Delight & Old Olive.  She's a huge fan of the Beatles 'Yellow Submarine' so she had to get this bundle! 

Measurements: 

• Blueberry Bushel 8 1/8" X 5 1/4". Across the top, score at the 1 5/8" mark down to 1 5/8". Score at 3 3/8" down to 3 5/8". Score at 5" down to the bottom of the card. From the bottom side, score at the 6 1/2" up to 1 5/8". Now you'll make two cuts across the center two areas from the score lines.  
• Pool Party large squares 3 1/4", small squares 1 1/2" X 2 for the bottom.  Top pieces are 1 1/2" X 1 3/4"
• Back white is 3" X 3 3/8"

Here's a view of the back side.

This is a total 'WOW' card; don't you agree? Candace is an incredible designer and LOVES swapping!

I've always loved Red with Pool Party; one of my favorite color combos. 

Measurements:

• Pool Party 6 1/2" X 5 1/2" score at 4 1/4", second flap is 6" X 4 1/4" score at 3 1/8"
• DSP 2" X 5 1/4"

• Cut once for two card fronts with the Border Basics dies; video tips & tutorial too

  June 27, 2023

  ---

  I shared one of the cards I made in last week's video and here's another one. Both feature the same three products: Masterfully Made designer paper, Wanted to Say dies and the Border Basics dies.  

  Save

  I used the White die-cut leftover from the card I shared yesterday on this card; basically getting two cards from one die-cut!

  The Border Basics dies are wonderful and so versatile since they die-cut the stitched edge on both sides.  Below is a photo of the inside of the card: 

  Save

  The Celebrate, Happy Birthday, stars and present die-cuts are all from the Wanted to Say dies seen here: 

  Save

  Here are both cards I shared; each with a different piece of the Masterfully Made CS.  As you can see I added a thin line of card stock to rest the 'Celebrate' die-cut on. I love the effect!

  Save

  You can see this beautiful designer paper here.  It's discounted in June; down to $10.62.

  Save

  The photo below shows both cards; one cut for two card front! 

  Save

  I cut the right side of the card front off (on the left card) and used that piece on the card on the right. Essentially I cut the card front in half and added it to the card on the right, adding DSP underneath to show off the angles.  One cut; two cards!  

  You can see how I made this card on the video here.  Or click on the photo below to watch. Remember to follow me on Facebook here or on my YouTube channel here.

• Masterfully Made & Wanted to Say quick card ideas with video tips

  June 26, 2023

  And our annual Stampin' Sale is done!  Each June my customers and I host a paper crafting sale – this year we had 30 sellers and we had a fabulous turnout!  

  Save

  That photo was just the stamps for sale; we had so much more!  I wish you could be here for it, but I know it is a long way for some to Minot, ND.  But if you're near me, plan for the weekend after Father's Day. Make a road trip if you can.  
  We had one person come from St. Louis and another who was in town visiting from Peru!  They were so glad to be here for this annual event.

  Last week I shared three card ideas featuring three products: Masterfully Made designer series paper, Wanted to Say dies and Border Basics dies. Here's one of them:

  Save

  The Masterfully Made designer paper features a torn edge look to a few of the sheets.  I chose this one because of it's beautiful colors.  I added Berry Burst, Fresh Freesia and Azure Afternoon in the die-cuts from the Wanted to Say dies.  This set of dies has a detailed and a layered die for each set of words in the set, plus a bunch of other dies like the flowers I used here. You can see them here.

  Save

  The angled border on the White card base is die-cut with the Basic Borders dies seen here.  I love these and use them often.  You can see them here.  I saved the piece I die-cut and used it on another card.  Here are both of the cards I made, using two different sheets of the Masterfully Made DSP. 

  Save

  You can see this beautiful designer paper here.  It's discounted in June; down to $10.62.

  Save

  As you can see, there is no stamping on the front.  But I did add a greeting to the inside:

  June 24, 2023

  ---

  These are the last few swaps for our June swap theme of 'using designer paper' on a card.  

  Annette created this one with the Earthen Elegance designer paper and Nature's Prints stamp set. 

  Save

  It's gorgeous in our new Pecan Pie color with Very Vanilla.  There's just something about monochromatic cards! 

  Measurements:

  • Pecan Pie card base 8 1/2" X 5 1/2" score at 4 1/4", layer is 2 3/4" X 4 1/4"
  • Vanilla 2 1/2" X 4" and 4" X 5 1/4"
  • Designer paper 2" X 5 1/4"

  Next is Paula's card; it's a fun fold card featuring the Inked Botanicals designer paper. It's another monochromatic card! She folded back her front card base to show off the designer paper on the inside.  

  Save

  
  She used the Darling Details bundle for her greeting, flowers & leaves. The greeting die-cut is made with the new Nested Essentials dies. 

  Measurements:

  • Lost Lagoon card base 8 1/2" X 5 1/2" score at 1 1/2" and 4 1/4" 
  • DSP left front 1" X 5 1/4", front fold (and inside front fold) is 1 1/4" X 5 1/4" and inside is 2" X 5 1/4"
  • White inside is 2" X 5 1/4" 

  Save

  Love how she added designer paper everywhere!
