Queen Anne’s Lace cards


I was playing with the Queen Anne's Lace stamp set and was in the mood for purple.  I combined Gorgeous Grape with Purple Posy to make the card below.

There are just three pieces on this card but it looks like there's more!  Sometimes you don't need to add an extra layer for the sentiment. You can stamp it on the main piece below the image usually divided by a ribbon.  But this time I added the flower image on an additional layer of Purple Posy for an extra layered look.

This Queen Anne's Lace stamp set is one of two you get free this month when you purchase the Starter Kit.  Read about that here!  It's such a great deal with over $75 in free product!  Pay just $99 and get $200!  And FREE Shipping too!  

I added a piece of the Brights DSP on the left.  That tricolor ribbon sure brings it all together!  Tying a knot and securing the ends in the back is easy and with soft ribbon there isn't a thick bump at all. 

Measurements:

  • Gorgeous Grape main card 5 1/2" X 8 1/2" scored in half at 4 1/4"
  • Purple Posy 2 3/4" X 3" tall
  • Whisper White 4 1/4" X 3" 

I also made this additional card on the right using a sketch I found.  It's very similar but this time I stamped all on one layer and added a 3/4" strip of Playing with Patterns Designer paper between the main image and the greeting. Easy! 

Hopefully these easy cards inspire you to stamp this week.  Using two shades of the same color sure makes it easy to choose colors!  Think of blues, pinks, greens, etc.

  • Last day of FREE shipping! More Team card swaps too


    Today is the last day of the free shipping promotion; don't miss out on the savings! 

    Today I'm sharing two incredible fun fold swaps from our Team card swap this month.  The theme was to feature plaid. 

    Candace created her own plaid using markers on the upper left panel.  Wow!  He also used the Thankful Garden bundle for her flowers and leaves. This bundle includes dies and masks!  See it here.  

    I love the sponging she did on her die-cut leaves.  Her colors include Lost Lagoon, Soft Sea Foam and Highland Heather.  The inside die is from the Arches dies – currently unavailable unfortunately.  

    Measurements:

    • card base 10 3/4" X 5 1/2" sc0re at 1 5/8", 3 1/4", 7 1/2" & 9"
    • left panel 2 1/2" X 3 1/2"; right panel 2 7/8" X 3 7/8"
    • purple side panels 1 1/4" X 5 1/2"
    • left 'plaid' panel is 2 3/8" X 3 3/8"; right panel is 2 3/4" X 3 3/4"

    Next is an adorable fun fold made by Lori.  


    Note how the front panel with the checkered banner is outside the left side of the card. 

    She used the Timeless Plaid & Otterly Adorable DSP here as well as the Arches dies.  Inside you'll find the Soft Waves embossing folder with a bit of sponging to catch the texture.  

    And it opens yet one more time!  I love how she added details to every layer on each side.   Her greetings are from the Everyday Arches bundle and Arched Wishes set.  

    Measurements:

    • card base 8 1/2" X 5 1/2"
    • White inside 3 1/2" X 4 3/4"
    • DSP – front panel is 4" X 5 1/4", checkered flap is 4 3/4" X 1 1/2" scored at 4 1/4"

  • Look at these wonderful Plaid Themed card swaps


    I'm excited to share these fabulous swap cards by my Flowerbug's Team today.  Our theme was to use plaid in some way on our cards. 

    Jacki made this unique card with the Timeless Plaid DSP.  

    She cut three pieces of Timeless Plaid DSP using the Stylish Shapes dies. Then cut them into even pieces and added her sentiment between them.  I love the simple addition of the twine on the upper left.  She used the new Secret Sea with Very Vanilla. The greeting is from the With You in Mind stamp set.  

    Paula made this gorgeous card also using the Timeless Plaid DSP.  

    She also used the Mini Corrugated 3D embossing folder and the Textured Notes dies and the Wishing You bundle. I love her color combo; it really shows off the pretty colors in the DSP.  Look at the ribbon threaded through the die-cut edges!  Her colors include Early Espresso & Pecan Pie. 

    Candy made this gorgeous card using the Twisted in Time stamp set. 

    She also used the Textured Notes dies and the Plaid embossing folder.  Her colors include Lost Lagoon, Basic Beige and Early Espresso. 

    More swaps coming tomorrow!  

    Do NOT forget about the free shipping promotion through Friday!
