One more Petal Park and Kind & Sincere sneak peek card


There are still lots of bargains on the Clearance Rack and Last Chance list.  Click on the pictures below to see them all.  Remember they're while supplies last!  Be sure to use this host code when you order:   QFTB9AST



Yesterday I shared a card seen here made with these two new products and today I'm sharing another one.  I found it easy to create with the Petal Park bundle and the Kind & Sincere stamp set.  They're coming out in the upcoming 2023 Spring Catalog by Stampin' Up!. I love them both! 

 

 

Details:

  • I stamped the 'Thanks' greeting on the White panel before I textured it with the new Cane Weave 3D embossing folder.  
  • The flowers are stamped in Petal Pink and Night of Navy.  The leaves are fussy cut. 
  • The 'for everything' greeting is stamped and die-cut with the new Something Fancy dies
  • The Soft Sea Foam green card base is 4 1/4" X 11" and scored at 2 3/4" & 5 1/2"
  • The white panel is 4 1/4" X 2 3/4"; the Navy is 4 1/2" X 3". 
  • The Petal Pink layer is 2 1/2" X 4".  I used the outline leaf image to stamp a background using Petal Pink ink. 

I think I'll get a lot of use of the Kind & Sincere stamp set.  I love that you can create your own greetings by putting together the large cursive words with the smaller printed words.  So versatile!

Here are the 22 swaps I made.  The two main colors are soft & fresh yet the addition of Navy brings it all together & makes it pop. I feel like Navy is slightly softer than Black, which is another of my favorite ways to add a depth of color.  

Thanks for reading up to this point; I hope you're excited about the upcoming Spring catalog.  It's filled with all kinds of fresh, new products!  

**If you don't have a local demonstrator I'm happy to send you the new 2023 Spring & Sale-a-Bration catalogs for $5.  If you've ordered from me in the past year; I'll send them to you free.

  • Beautiful swap cards with Holiday Catalog stamp sets


    Today I'm sharing more of my Flowerbug Team card swaps featuring Holiday Catalog stamps or bundles.  

    First up is a beautiful card made by Tracey featuring the Perched in a Tree bundle seen here.

    Her colors are Soft Suede, Petal Pink and Mango Melody. The designer papers are Texture Chic and the Silver & Gold Sale-a-Bration DSP.  We stamped & sponged the Silver & gold DSP to add coordinating colors. 

    The gold leaves are from the Chic dies cut from the Distressed Gold DSP.  The solid leaves are from the Aspen dies.  That pretty texture on the Soft Suede layer is the Twigs & Sprigs embossing folder seen here.  All contribute to making this card stunning! 

    Measurements:

    • Card base 5 1/2" X 8 1/2"
    • Soft Suede 4" X 5 1/4"
    • DSP are both 3" X 4"

    ~~~

    Next is a soft & pretty card Marilyn made.  She used the Splendid Thoughts bundle.

    Her colors are Coastal Cabana with Soft Suede & White.  The Splendid Stems dies add a delicate natural touch.  

    The White is textured with the Painted Texture embossing folder.  The corners on this piece are punched with the new Very Best Trio punch seen here.  The soft DSP is from the Splendid Day specialty paper seen here.  

    Measurements:

    • Coastal Cabana is 5 1/2" X 8 1/2" scored at 2 1/8" & 4 1/4"
    • Soft Suede – 3 3/4" X 5"
    • White is 3 1/2" X 4 3/4"
    • DSP & Coastal Cabana layers are 2 3/4" X 3 1/4" 

    ~~~

    Lastly for today is a pretty card made by Paula.  She cased a card made by Colleen Magness.  It features the pretty Soft Seedlings stamp set. It's a Distinktive set which means you get multiple hues of color when stamping.  Although she did use a sponging technique to achieve her multiple colors.  

    She inked the stamp in Crushed Curry first, then added Old Olive to the stem with a marker.  Then used a finger dauber to add pumpkin pie and cherry cobbler ink on stamp.  Huff & stamp!  

    The leaf texture on her Vanilla layer is made with the Leaf Fall 3D folder seen here.  It's new!  

    Measurements:

    • Crushed Curry card base 4 1/4" X 11"
    • Vanilla 5 1/8" X 3 7/8"
    • Cherry Cobbler 5 1/4" X 4"
    • Pumpkin Pie 5 3/8 X 4 1/8" 

    Remember that if you're wanting any of the Holiday Catalog products it's smart to order in August so you earn free Sale-a-Bration choices!

  • More Team Swaps include multiple ‘WOW’ cards!


    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!  

    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. 

    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!
