Here are a few more Halloween card swaps, most featuring the Playful Ghosts stamp set. 

Joan made this cute card with bright fall colors.

Her colors include Granny Apple Green, Pumpkin Pie, Crushed Curry and Cherry Cobbler. She added tons of leaves from the Changing Leaves dies. The embossing folder is the Leaf Fall 3D seen here. 

Check out the Playful Ghosts stamp set here.  It's filled with cute & playful images.

She offered a 2nd option of a fall themed card for us at the shoebox swap.

Save

The greeting is from the Autumn Expressions stamp set.  I love how she created two themes using the same colors & layout!  

Save

Lastly today is Rita's cute card also featuring the Playful Ghosts set. 

Save

She stamped the images in Black and colored in with Blends markers. The circle die-cut is from the Spotlight on Nature dies seen here.

• What’s Cookin’ & All For Baby card ideas

  November 26, 2021

  ---

  Today I'm sharing two cards made by sisters on my Flowerbugs Team.  They're so talented and I love to see what they make for our swaps.  

  First is an amazing card made by Jonna.  She used the What's Cookin' bundle seen here.  I LOVE her colors and how she created a tablecloth from the patterned paper by placing it on an angle.  

  Save

  She stamped & die-cut the cooking elements and added it to the 'table'.  The White background is textured with the Tasteful Textile 3D embossing folder.  

  The greeting is stamped and punched out with the Everyday Label punch. It's neat how she used it vertically instead of the usual way. 

  Next is a sweet baby card made by Jacki featuring the All for Baby bundle seen here.  Her colors are Just Jade & Basic White.  The baby outfit is stamped in Just Jade ink and die-cut; then added with the hanger die-cut.  The designer paper is from our In color patterned paper packs – we have 6 sets of these in all of our color families. 

  Save

  That little rhinestone on the hanger is a great addition. I love the simplicity of this card; it really showcases the outfit & greeting.

• Gorgeous Blackberry Beauty card swaps

  November 25, 2021

  Happy Thanksgiving!!  I hope you have a wonderful day filled with good food, friends and family.

  There really isn't a better word for the Blackberry Beauty specialty designer paper.  Gorgeous just fits.  

  Today I'm sharing two fabulous card ideas made by two of my Flowerbug Team members. 

  First is Annette's pretty card.  I think my favorite thing is how she made the amazing designer paper the star of the card.  You don't need to add much to make a card shine with this Blackberry Beauty paper!  See it here. 

  Save

  She added a stitched rectangle die-cut in Blackberry Bliss for her greeting, heat embossing it with Gold embossing powder. That thinner strip of Gold foil brings your focus back to the greeting.  I love the 3 Elegant Faceted gems on the left too. 

  Next is a neat fun fold card made by Brenda.  

  Save

  She trimmed off 1 1/4" off the right edge of the card base and textured it with the Pretty Flowers embossing folder.  Then she adhered it back onto the 'inside' of the card. 

  I like how she layered the greeting strip with another piece of this designer paper.  Look at the added detail of the thin strip of Brushed Gold paper.  

  Save

  Measurements: 

  • Blackberry Bliss card base 5 1/2" X 8 1/2" scored at 4 1/4".  Trim off 1 1/4" off the edge
  • DSP 5" X 2 1/2", 1" X 4 1/4" strip 
  • Cinnamon Cider 3" X 2 3/4", 3/4" X 4" greeting strip 
  • inside piece 2 1/3" X 4 3/4"
  • Gold strip 1/4" X 5 1/2"

• Pretty & Iridescent Whimsy & Wonder Team card swaps!

  November 24, 2021

  ---

  Check out these pretty cards made with the Whimsy & Wonder specialty designer paper and the Whimsical Trees bundle.

  This first one was made by Marilyn.  She trimmed off an inch on the right side of her card front so it shows off the pretty Whimsy & Wonder specialty paper. 

  Save

  Other features here are the Iridescent Snowflakes, the Merry Melody embossing folder and the Genial Gems from the Annual catalog. 

  This Whimsy & Wonder specialty designer paper has been on low inventory multiple times.  It is not carrying over so get it while you can here. 

  Next is Karen's pretty card.  I love the three banners showing off this pretty paper. And the greeting in the center of the snowflake too!  

  Save

  Here's a link to a video featuring many projects using the Whimsy & Wonder suite you may want to watch. 

  Have a wonderful & Happy Thanksgiving!!
