Pretty Christmas Classics card; video & free project sheet

We made this pretty card at my November card clubs. I also featured it on last week's video too.

I feel the clean layout shows off the pretty die-cuts. A simple piece of designer paper and a textured background add all the details needed to make this stand out card.

I gave them a few choices on their cards – greetings and embossing folders.

I've found the Christmas Classics bundle to be my 'go to' for holiday cards this year.  Between the pretty dies and the wonderful greetings and botanical assortment it has it all! I love how the white greeting die-cut fits so perfectly on the detailed leaf die-cut. See this bundle here.

• Power of Hope meets Peacock Foil

  February 11, 2020

  ---

  For our February Flowerbug's Team swap we chose to do a swap featuring Sale-a-Bration cards.  They are all fantastic!  Over the top wonderful.  I cannot wait to share them all with you.  

  Here's the one I made using the Power of Hope bundle seen here.  It's one of the free items you receive with purchase during our Sale-a-Bration promotion from now through March 31st; or while supplies last.  I do suspect this will sell out before March is over.

  I textured the Noble Peacock Foil (seen here) with the Stone embossing folder from this bundle.  Adding texture to this pretty foil brings it over the top! I also added a layer of vellum and a few flags of Peacock foil.  It comes in 6 single-sided sheets of 12 X 12" foil paper. 2 each of 3 colors: Blueberry Bushel, Old Olive, Pretty Peacock.  There are Noble Peacock rhinestones that match this paper perfectly.

  Measurements:

  • White card base 5 1/2" X 8 1/2", White stamped layer  2 1/2" X 3 3/4"
  • Vellum 2 3/4" X 4"
  • Foil paper 2 1/2" X 4 3/4" plus two 3/8" strips

• Seriously the Best Cards with Golden Honey Folio gift pouch & video

  February 10, 2020

  ---

  I made this gorgeous cards & folio pouch project two weeks ago on Facebook Live.  Join me each Tuesday at 11 am CT.  Follow my FB page here.

  I chose to use the Golden Honey Specialty Designer Paper for my color inspiration.  It's Black, White with Gold foil accents. Measurements and details are below.

  As you can see I made a few cards with just black, white and gold. Then I added color on the other with Melon Mambo & used just the black and white DSP.  You can add any of your favorite colors to this pretty paper; Black and White is just the beginning!

  Here are the measurements for the folio pouch and cards.

  • Folio is 8 1/2" X 11".  Score on the long side at 5 1/4" and 5 3/4". Score on the short side at 6 1/2".
  • DSP on the front is 4 1/2" X 5 3/4" and the white layer is 4 5/8" X 6" 
  • Cards measure 4 1/4" X 9"; scored at 5 1/2". DSP is 3 1/4" X 4" and 1 7/8" X 4".

  Here's the Melon Mambo version of this folio:

  I did have trouble getting a good photo of the actual colors on this one.  I added Petal Pink/Champagne ribbon and Champagne rhinestones to this one. I cannot resist adding these when I can.  They're beautiful!
