Quiet Reflection and Delightful Floral Fancy Fold card swaps with measurements!


Today I'm sharing the last of our Team fun fold swaps. I'm adding measurements for each of them.  If you've missed the previous posts please click on the title of this post and scroll to see each one.  

The first card was made by Candy. She made a simple fold back card that is so easy but so pretty!

She is featuring the Quiet Reflection stamp set seen here.  Her samples and the next one sold me on this set. I love that it's a monochromatic card – it's totally fitting for this set. 

Product used: Deckled Rectangles, Softly Sophisticated stamps & embossing folder (SAB), Gold & Vanilla 3/8" satin edges ribbon

Measurements:

  • Misty Moonlight card base 8 1/2" X 5 1/2" score at 2 1/8" & 4 1/4"
  • Vanilla 1 7/8" X 5 1/4" textured layer, inside is 4" X 5 1/4", die-cut is 2 1/4" X 3 1/2"
  • Misty Moonlight die-cut is 2 1/2" X 3 7/8"

Karen made this next card using the same Quiet Reflection stamp set. Her beautiful card is also monochromatic; using Pebbled Path with Vanilla. 

The front layer opens to reveal a second inside layer that opens.  Quite unique and actually easy to make too.  

Measurements:

  • Pebbled Path card base 6 1/4" X 5 1/2" score at 4 1/4", front layer 2 3/4" X 3 3/4", inside is 2 7/8" X 3 3/4"
  • Vanilla front is 2 1/2" X 3 1/2", inside is 7 3/4" X 4 3/4" score at 3 7/8", greeting strip is 3 1/2" X 1/2" 
  • DSP 2" X 5 1/2"

Paula made this beautiful card with a few of our Online Exclusive products.  We have sooo many now & more coming in March! Check them all out here; I know you'll see a few new things!

The designer paper is the Delightful Floral seen here.  She used the pretty Translucent Floral bundle for her greetings and die-cuts.  See it here. 

Measurements:

  • Parakeet Party card base 11" X 5 1/4" score at 4" & 5 3/4" for the right two score lines. From the left score down at 1 3/4" to the 1 1/4" mark from the top and up from the bottom. Move over to the 3 1/2" mark (from the left) and do this again. Now you'll cut across from the first score line to the 5 1/4" score line and cut across.  
  • Mossy Meadow 2 1/2" square, 1 1/2" X 2 1/2", plus the back card base of 4 1/4" X 5 1/2"
  • White inside is 3 3/4" X 5", 2 1/4" square and 1 1/4" X 2 1/4"
  • Vellum, DSP & black pieces for flowers & leaves *she colored her vellum
  • DSP – 2 pieces 1 1/2" X 5 1/4", 4 pieces 1 1/2" X 1" 

It's quite the special card isn't it?  It's called a side shutter card and was cased from Wendy Cranford. This paper and bundle are definitely my style. 

I hope you've enjoyed our many samples of fancy fold cards this past week.  My Flowerbug's are the best!

  • Double Easel fun fold card with video & free project sheet


    I shared this neat fun fold on last week's Live video.  I record them on Facebook Live then upload to YouTube so you can view them either place. 

    My color combination is Summer Splash with Black & White.  The new Botanical Textures DSP inspired this fun fold card. 
    I love how the three butterflies die-cut is placed on 3 Black circles; they would have been lost if placed directly on the DSP. 
    We made this project at last week's Team gathering.  They loved it! 
     
    Products used:
    • Botanical Textures DSP seen here
    • Sketched Butterfly bundle
    • Beautiful Butterflies stamp set
    • Fancy Border dies (seen here) 
    • Label punch

    I created a free project sheet with measurements & directions for you. Click on this link to download or print it.  Download Botanical Butterfly Easel card

    I also included the video below. What do you think of it?  I hope you'll try one!

    Below is the video tutorial: I hope you watch it and see the other really special fancy fold.  I'll share that tomorrow!

  • Last of the Clean & Simple Team swaps!


    Today I'm sharing the last of the March Team swaps with the Clean & Simple theme.  No designer paper!

    Lori created with pretty card with the Linked Together bundle seen here. 

    This bundle has stamps, dies and masks which is how she created her background.  All using Bubble Bath ink! 

    I love her soft background and the die accents she added by the greeting.  Just gorgeous!  

    Next is a pretty card made by Tracey. She chose to use the You are Remarkable stamp set seen here.  

    She also stamped a soft background behind the flower using the Elements of Text set.  Her color include Daffodil Delight & Crumb Cake with a bit of green on the leaves.  

    I love how she stamped the inside; that bee is adorable. 

    And lastly is this beautiful all White card made by Jonna.  

    White on White is hard to photograph; I wish you could see how elegant it is in person!  

    She used the Seaside Wishes bundle along with a bunch of score lines on the left side. This little touch anchors the seashells wonderfully!  

    I hope you've enjoyed seeing my talented team swaps this month!

  • More amazing Clean & Simple swap cards by the Flowerbug’s


    I shared 4 of our Team swaps yesterday and today I'm sharing more. They're all incredible! 

    Our theme was to create cards that are 'Clean & Simple' without any designer paper.  This is NOT easy for some advanced stampers! 

    First up is Karen's card which is just her style: 

    She used the Mini corrugated 3D embossing folder seen here and linen thread.  Plus the Painted Lavender & Friends for Life die-cuts on her Basic Beige & White card.  

    Next is a stunning card made by Paula.  She used the new Thankful Garden bundle seen here.

    Her colors include Very Vanilla & Crumb Cake. She heat embossed the floral image in Gold embossing powder. The background is made with the Thankful Garden stencils included in the bundle.  

    Just gorgeous Paula!!

    And look at the incredible card Jacki made!  

    She used the Friends for Life dies and the Waves 3D embossing folder.  Simply White with a pop of Black for an elegant look. 

    Next is Joan's monochromatic card featuring the Coffee with Friends stamp set:

    She used Pecan Pie and colored the images in with watercolor pencils.  Beautifully done!  

    I'll share the last of our swaps tomorrow!
