Today I'm sharing the last batch of swap cards made by my Flowerbug's Team. Our swap theme was to feature glitz, shine or glimmer.  They truly did their best to show off our beautiful specialty papers!

Jacki made this card using the Night Divine dies seen here.  *Unfortunately it's retiring and available while supplies last.

• 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.  

  Save

  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'.  

  Save

  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.

  Here are all three of the cards I share in the video. Scroll down a bit or watch it here.
