Prized Peony bundle; wow!

July 10, 2020

Look at these gorgeous cards Mary and Karen made for a Flowerbug's Team swap last month. They both used items in the new Peony suite seen here.

Save

Mary's colors are Petal Pink, Soft Sea Foam with Gray Granite. She sponged a bit of Petal Pink onto the Peony petals. The other products here are the new Vellum square doilies and Elegant Faceted Gems. that designer paper is from the In Good Taste package seen here.

Save

Karen used the Peony Garden designer paper as a background and the new Magenta Madness card stock with Pear Pizzazz & Old Olive for leaves. That pretty scalloped edge is included in the Peony dies.

You might think it's difficult to put the peony flower together, but Stampin' Up! made it super easy. It's just 4 die-cuts and they layer easily. You match up the bottom edge of each die-cut for a perfect fit each time. I made a video of it here on FB.

Last set of swaps made by my Team using the new In Colors

May 24, 2024
Here are the last of this month's Team swaps:

Mary made this pretty card using two new In Colors – Petunia Pop & Summer Splash.

Save

She used the new Unbounded Love bundle and the Unbounded Beauty designer paper. The bundle is not available right now and the DSP is in low inventory. Popular items for sure!! The embossing folder is Distress Tile 3D.

Measurements:
- White card base 5 1/2" X 8 1/2" score/fold at 4 1/4".
- Petunia Pop 5 1/4" X 4" & 3 1/2" X 2 3/4"
- Summer Splash 5" X 3 3/4"
- DSP 3 1/4" X 2 1/2"
Rita made this cute card with the 2024-26 In Color designer paper.

Save

Her card base is White as is her textured layer although it's hard to see here. She added a Nested Essentials DSP die-cut vertically that adds some fun interest to the card.

~~~

Lastly is Paula's pretty card; she used the same colors and designer papers as Mary's card above. Petunia Pop is beautiful with Summer Splash.

Save

She used the Unbounded Beauty suite here; see it on page 54 of your new Annual catalog. It starts out as a center gate-fold card but turns into so much more when you open it!

It's a center fold pop up card! I was amazed by it and thought it looked super hard to make. She assured me it wasn't so I took on the challenge and made one on my Tuesday Live video seen here.

Save

Isn't this an amazing card? It looks so challenging to make!

I'm not going to share measurements for this card today since it's very similar to the card I shared on the Tuesday video. I will post the video & free project sheet for my card on Monday.

Thank you so much for the inspiration & encouragement Paula. You were right; this card was easier than I thought!

Today I'm sharing more of our Team swaps from our latest gathering.

First up is Tracey's swap featuring the Full of Life designer paper.

This pack of paper is filled with bold patterns and bright colors; see it here. She layered 3 pieces of designer paper with Berry Burst card stock. The greeting is heat embossed on the back side of one of these patterns.

Fabulous Team Swaps!

May 22, 2024
We held our monthly Flowerbug's Team Meeting on Saturday and I wanted to share the card swaps they made.

First is a beautiful card made by Candy who featured the new Loveliest Tree stamp set seen here.

Save

Her colors include Mossy Meadow, Blackberry Bliss and Cajun Craze. Gorgeous!! The embossing folder is the Eyelet 3D folder seen here.

Save

There are dies that go with it too. I believe she colored the tree in with Blends markers. She also used Wink of Stella on the tree image – it shows up very well in person but not as much in person.

Save

Next is a neat fun fold card made by Jacki. She chose the Trusty Tools stamp set & dies.

Save

See the stamp set here and the dies here. They were a bundle in the Spring catalog and carried over into the new Annual Catalog.

The designer paper is the Countryside Inn DSP seen here that carried over and is now online.

Save
