Pretty Soft Seedlings card & video; an easy fun fold layout


I've sure been enjoying the Soft Seedlings stamp set.  The pretty maple leaf has so much texture and depth and the greetings are some of my favorites. I think I've used it more than any set in the Holiday catalog! 

 We just purchased a red maple tree and planted it in our backyard this weekend.  It's red foliage is beautiful! 

For this card I chose to stamp the leaves in two colors – Soft Suede & Coastal Cabana.  I know they're not correct leaf colors, but it's fun to go outside the box at times.  

It's one of my favorite fun folds; so easy to do and it can be jazzed up easily with elements & greetings.  

I chose to stamp directly on one of the Leaf Label elements in the Leaf Label & Amber gem combo pack seen here.  Unfortunately they are out of stock right now; but it will be available again in November. 

The package includes 25 leaves and amber gems too; all for $8. They're so fun to play with; you can add texture, or stamp or sponge color on them. 

It might be hard to see the measurements in the photo above.  Here they are again: 

  • Card base 4 ¼” X 5 ½”
  • Soft Suede 3 ¼” X 11” scored at 5 ½”
  • Vanilla 3” X 5 ¼” (2 pieces)

Here's a photo of the inside.  I kept is simple since I'll use it as a thank you card.

  • Thoughtful Wishes bundle with a neat masking effect


    What do you think of this monochromatic card?  

    The colors include Very Vanilla with Pecan Pie & Early Espresso. I used quite a few new Annual Catalog products here. 

    Products used:

    • Thoughtful Wishes bundle seen here
    • Country Woods designer paper
    • So Swirly embossing folder seen here
    • Countryside corner dies for my mask (now seen online)
    • Unbounded Love stamp set

    I added ink inside a die-cut mask with a Blending Brush & Pecan Pie ink before I textured it with the So Swirly embossing folder.  I love the effect!

  • Unbounded Beauty card; an easy layout you’ll love to copy!


    I created this card for my free project tutorial this month – it features the Unbounded Beauty suite. This tutorial is free to everyone who orders from me online. 

    My colors include Petunia Pop, Basic White and a bit of Summer Splash with the In Color glimmer paper.  The pretty designer paper is called Unbounded Beauty and can be seen here. 

    The greeting stamp & die-cut are both from the same suite – the Unbounded Love bundle seen here.  

    Measurements: 

    • card base 5 1/2" X 8 1/2" score/fold at 4 1/4"
    • Designer paper – start with a piece measuring 3 1/2" square. Cut from the left at 1/2", 3/4", 1" and 1 1/4"
    • White is 4 1/4" X 3" plus a scrap for greeting die-cut

    If you're loving this pretty designer paper you might consider opting in for my Unbounded Beauty card kit to go.  It includes 10 pre-cut cards, approximately $20 in product and the free tutorial – all for $29 plus shipping.  See it here. 


    There's also a PDF tutorial option for those who have their own supplies at www.flowerbugshop.com.

  • Beautiful but quick cards with the Thoughtful Journey Memories & More card pack


    I shared this card on last week's FB live video. It starts out with the Thoughtful Journey Memories & More cards and a Basic White Memories & More card base. 

    I scored the blue card and the front half of the card base in half.  Then added a few short pieces of card stock behind the front layers so that layer pops up. 

    The size of these pieces do not matter at all.  Some people use one thicker piece on each side; I used two thin pieces.  It allows the top layer to move independently from the front of the card.  See how it's done in this video. 


    You can see these Memories & More cards here. They come in a pack of 28 – half are 3 X 4" and the rest are 4" X 6". They fit our Basic White Memories & More card bases and envelopes perfectly.  They're also a great way to create larger than our usual cards – 4 1/4" X 6 1/4" finished size.  

    I made more beautiful cards with these products, adding a bit of twine to some along with a few printed greetings from the Saying Something Ephemera pack. 
     

    You can see the Saying Something Ephemera pack here.  It's FULL of tons of greetings you can just add to a card or scrapbook page.  I was thrilled when I saw these in the catalog. They're a perfect solution for quick crafting.  

    Sometimes you want or need to be able to make quick cards; these items are a wonderful way to do that!
