Product used:

the ghosts, pumpkin and striped trim are from the Cute Halloween designer paper in the Holiday catalog. See it here.
I punched one of the ghosts and the pumpkin with the Halloween punch. It's in a bundle with the Cutest Halloween set seen here or on page 51, which is where the greeting is from. *Sadly the Halloween punch is now on back-order until November!
the wreath & bats are die-cut with the Seasonal Swirl dies seen here & Black Glimmer paper in the annual catalog; seen here
the ombre background is actually Fresh Freesia CS, with Misty Moonlight & Night of Navy added with our Blending Brushes *watch the video below
Cute Stars Adhesive-backed sequins are also added to the wreath

CUTE HALLOWEEN 6" X 6" (15.2 X 15.2 CM) DESIGNER SERIES PAPER

Check out the ghostly treat box in the photo above. It's so simple to make with the Pretty Pillow box dies!

The stitched tag is also in the Pretty Pillow Box dies. Look how it latches – the scalloped front slips in behind the tag in front. I love that I don't need a special way to keep it closed; the tag does it for me!

Check out the other version I made with the fun skeletons on the right? I fussy cut them from the Cute Halloween paper.

I haven't shared this for awhile so here it is; my favorite cutting template especially for inside a card. Get 5 pieces from one 8 1/2" X 11" sheet of card stock. If you're making multiples this can save you a lot!

Below is the video. I make another project using Sparkle of the Season before this one. Fast forward to about 22 minutes in to see this neat Halloween card.

Power of Hope Bundle swap cards

February 18, 2020

I have a lot of swaps to show you this week. My Flowerbug's Team held a Sale-a-Bration card swap and the cards are amazing! Each day I'll share a few with you.

First up are two cards featuring the Power of Hope bundle from the 2020 Sale-a-Bration catalog. It's free with any $100 purchase. You receive both the stamp set and the Stone embossing folder. Look!

Save

Annette made this one; it's a gate-fold card with a faux lantern. She stamped and colored the image with Blends markers before adding texture with the Corrugated embossing folder seen here. She also rubbed her Black Memento ink pad over the texture to add a distressed look.

She achieved the lantern by cutting out a circle with the Circles Collection dies and adding strips of Real Red above and below. The top of the lantern is made with the Light Bulb punch. Both the silver foil and Real Red papers are textured with the Stone embossing folder.

Save

Audrey made the pretty card above adding Gold with her Red, Black and White colors. So elegant! The greeting is heat embossed. Look at what she did on the inside of the card! Unique and special.

You can see this bundle here in my online store.

Easy Pizza Box for Note cards!

February 17, 2020

Have you ever wanted to gift a bunch of cards but weren't sure how to package them? I have a solution for note cards.

Note cards are traditionally smaller than A2 size cards; usually 3 1/2" X 5". We have a few different note cards in our 2019-20 Annual catalog this year. White or Scalloped. You can find them on page 168. Or click here for the Scalloped.

Coordination Product Release – While supplies last!

Save

I have been playing with the new Pleased as Punch designer paper a lot and the colors fit these cute scalloped note cards. Look!

Save

The colors are Old Olive, Balmy Blue, Light Pink and Terracotta Tile. I used Calypso Coral ink on all of the cards; it is very close to Terracotta Tile.

I used just a few pieces of the DSP on each card and added the four punches that coordinate with the Pleased as Punch to embellish. They include the Heart Punch Pack, Blossom (SAB), Tulip and Umbrella. You can see them at the end of this post.

Save

This box is so easy to make and it uses just one 8 1/2" X 11" sheet of card stock for the main box. The items I used are in the links at the end of this post.

Here are the measurements for the box:

Calypso Coral card stock: 7‐1/2" x 11"
    • score at: 1", 5", 6", 10" on the long side
    • score at: 1" and 6‐1/2" on the short side

Watch the video below to see how to assemble the box and make the cards too. Plus I share a bunch of our NEW Product Coordination items too!
