They feature a new bundle called Spotlight on Nature. It includes a pretty set of detailed circle dies along with the stamp set. These dies are going to be a big favorite!

I used two new In Colors here – Pretty in Pink and Shy Shamrock. I colored the flowers in with Peach Pie & Pretty in Pink Blends markers. There are two designer papers used here; one is the new 2024-26 In Color designer paper pack and the other is Unbounded Beauty.

The front flap is folded back towards the left side; this gives you the opportunity to add another layer of designer paper.

Paper Tags Joseph’s Coat technique with video tutorial

June 23, 2025
I played with the Paper Tags stamp set and the Irresistible Designs Specialty Paper for last week's video. Here's my favorite project:

Save

The colors include Daffodil Delight, Coastal Cabana and Gorgeous Grape in inks. The card stock is Black, White, Daffodil and Highland Heather.

For the colored designer paper panel I started with a piece at 4" X 5" and blended the three inks on it diagonally. This Irresistible specialty paper seen here resists the ink where they printed the resist designs. Once you add ink, it reveals their pattern. So cool!

After I blended the colors on I randomly cut the single panel into 5 pieces on the diagonal. I share how I did this in the video here. I adhered each panel one at a time starting in the corner. You may need to trim one of the pieces slightly to fit the card base.

Save

For the inside of the card I stamped the greeting and added color to it with coordinating Blends markers.

Here's how you do the Joseph's Coat technique:
1. Sponge or blend multiple colors onto your neutral cardstock.
2. Swipe the embossing buddy over this layer; tap off excess powder.
3. Ink the stamp image in Versamark ink; stamp onto the layer.
4. Immediately heat emboss with Black embossing powder.
Once I had my tag, I trimmed it by hand (there are coordinating dies) and added a few extra pieces to lengthen the tag and add more layers. I finished it off with a bow.

Awesome fun fold swaps by the Flowerbug’s

June 21, 2025
Today I'm sharing two neat fun fold cards made by a few of my Flowerbug's for a recent card swap. Our them was to use a new 2025-27 In Color and make it a fun fold.

First is a card made by Joan who used the new Online Exclusive set 'It's Okay' seen here.

Her In Color is Strawberry Slush and she loves to color; as you can see! It's a triple fold card; here's how the first panel opens:

Here are her measurements:
- card base 4 1/4" X 5 1/2"
- White opening panel 8" X 5 1/4" scored at 4"
- inside DSP – large right panel is 3 3/4" X 5", greeting strip 3 7/8" X 1", back of the front panel 3 1/4" X 2 1/4"
- front white panel 3" X 4 1/4"

Isn't her coloring gorgeous? That Bokeh DSP is perfect here!
