Mountain Air; a gorgeous scene

March 2, 2020

You might know that I love creating scenic cards. Even though my nickname is 'Flowerbug' that's because I am a gardener; not because I love flowers. I do! But when making cards I actually lean towards botanicals or scenes with trees and water. This card is a perfect example of my 'style' using the Mountain Air bundle seen here.

I created it on my Facebook Live two weeks ago. It's super easy to make! Here's a link to it on FB.

The colors here are Seaside Spray, Night of Navy and Whisper White. I did use one of the dies from the Mountain Air bundle; that pretty detailed tree. I also sponged the mountains and trees a bit then stamped the trees again upside down in White Craft ink for 'water'. The greeting is from the Well Said stamp set.

I love this set so much I am featuring it in March. Anyone who purchases the Mountain Air stamp set or bundle from me (past or in March) qualifies to receive the 10 cards project tutorial. And all online orders (of any amount) will also receive it!

Neat Fun Fold swaps by my Flowerbug’s Team

June 22, 2023
Our Team gathering and swap was this past weekend and our theme was to use designer paper.

This first card was made by Marla and features the Countryside Inn DSP.

Save
It looks like an ordinary gatefold card, but it's not! It latches closed with the heart & leaf punches on the right side!

Measurements are as follows:
- Card base 4 1/4" X 11" scored at 3" and 8 1/2"
- Designer paper is 2 3/4" X 4" on the left and 2 1/4" X 4" on the right. *same on the inside
Save

It's hard to tell in the photo but the top right corner of the large, layered die-cut catches under the punched pieces on the upper right of the card base. So cool and smart! I love it when a fun fold card stays closed easily.

She featured the Countryside Inn designer paper seen here. If you love blues, you need this pretty paper! And it's on sale in June – down from $12.50 to $10.62 now.

She also added more of the pretty paper inside her card.

Next is a sweet card by Candy – (see what I did there?) She featured the Zoo Crew designer paper and Zany Zoo bundle. She colored each of those flowers with a Blends marker!

Save

It's a 'book-binding' card fold. Start out with a 4 1/4" X 11" card base; score at 4 1/4" & 5 1/2". You'll adhere the 'binding' area down so the card opens at the 4 1/4" score line.

Her coloring is beautiful; I believe she used Blends markers.

The embossing folder is the Countryside Blossoms and the stitched circles and banner are from the Stylish Shapes dies.

I'll share more team swaps tomorrow!

Here is another fun fold card I made on last week's Tuesday video. If you'd like to watch me live, join me on Tuesday's at 11 am CT here on Facebook or see them later on my YouTube channel here.

This card features the Delightfully Eclectic designer paper and a favorite card theme of 'Black & White with a pop of color'.

The pretty floral paper sheet in the Delightfully Eclectic DSP chose the color theme. I fussy cut one of the flowers from the designer paper to add to my stitched circle die-cut. I mimicked the dots in the DSP and used the Dots & Spots die on a piece of the Fresh Freesia card stock.

This Delightfully Eclectic designer paper is on sale now in June. See it here.

The measurements are listed in the photo below.

Today's project is one I made for two reasons. One was to feature the Delightfully Eclectic designer paper in my weekly Live video and the other was for my Flowerbug's Team monthly card swap.

It's sweet & summery!

You might wonder where I got these shapes & flowers. Well they are both from a sheet in the Delightfully Eclectic designer paper seen here. Here's what the full sheet looks like:

And the best part? The new Inked & Tiled punch pack matches this paper perfectly with very little waste!

The punches are in a bundle with the Inked & Tiled stamp set here.

My card base is the beautiful new Bubble Bath pink. I added a layer of Garden Green 3 7/8" C 2 5/8". That is added to a Scalloped Contours die-cut measuring 4 1/2" X 3 1/8".

The greeting is heat embossed in White powder on a strip of Garden Green. Then I cut it into a 1/2" strip and used one of the punches to get that cute greeting shape.

Save

This is one of the reasons I ordered these punches; for greetings. But they sure make a sweet card front too.

I think you could use other small images, stamped or designer paper, and do this same thing!
