Retro Circles layout with a quick video. So unique & versatile!

December 28, 2020

I hope you had a nice Christmas weekend! We sure did. It's one of my favorite times of the year; one time where all of my kids are home and we're all together.

Here's another card we made at my December card clubs. It was such a hit on Facebook Live Stamp with Me that I had to do it at Club too. It's a great way to show off your designer paper with this retro style. Scroll down to see the video.

You just need three circles of different sizes. I used the Stitched Shapes dies so they have the extra detail of stitches on the edges. I use these dies so much! If you don't have them I highly recommend them. See them here.

I used the Brightly Gleaming specialty DSP here and instead of the copper foiled side I used the other side which has Navy, Mossy Meadow & Island Indigo.

The stamped images are from the Itty Bitty Birthday & Lots to Celebrate stamp sets. Just one ink color; Night of Navy.

Below are the cards we made on one of my Monday night Stamp with Me FB lives. See that video here.

Look at these fabulous swap cards!

August 31, 2021

We're continuing the Sale-a-Bration card swap theme. My Flowerbug gals are so talented!

This first card is made by Karen and she used a fun 'Floating' technique with the Penguin Playmates designer paper. You cut strips of paper and adhere them to a window sheet. Then you pop the whole thing up. The strips look like their floating!

This designer paper is one of our Sale-a-Bration choices; it's free with any $50 order through September 30th. See it here.

And here's another cute card made by Candace with the Penguin Playmates DSP and the Penguin Place stamp set. It's a corner latch fold! These cute penguins are easy to make with this punch bundle. See it here.

Save

Did you notice that even though these cards feature penguins they are not holiday cards? Love the versatility of both the Sale-a-Bration designer paper and this stamp & punch bundle!

Next is Lori's card featuring the Textures & Frames stamp set & Hand-Penned designer paper. What a fun background she stamped on the upper panel! She used the colors in the DSP – Daffodil Delight, Soft Succulent & Highland Heather.

August 30, 2021
Have you seen the Peaceful Prints designer paper? It's in our Sale-a-Bration catalog and is free with any $50 order through September. Click here to see it.

This photo does not do it justice! The colors are rich & vibrant – Black, Cherry Cobbler, Real Red, Garden Green & Sahara Sand.

Our August Team swap featured all Sale-a-Bration products. I sure love sharing what my Flowerbug's made! These three cards all feature this fabulous designer paper.

Candy made this first card with the Peaceful Deer bundle. It coordinates with this free designer paper too!

Save

She did stamp the image in the set using Red ink and punched it out. Then she added the Soft Suede antlers and a Red rhinestone.

Lots of details on this card:
- Stitched Whimsy dies
- Stitched Rectangle dies
- Merry Melody 3D embossing folder
- Colors are Real Red, Crumb Cake & Garden Green with White
Marilyn made this next card with one of my latest fun folds shared on FB Live. It's called a Faux Pocket card. You can see the video for this fold here.

Save

She used the Layering Circle dies and the Stitched Rectangle dies for her main pieces. The deer on the circle is cut from the actual designer paper. The greeting is from the Time of Giving stamp set and is heat embossed with White embossing powder on Black CS.

This card fold might look complicated but it sure isn't! Again, click here to see the video.

Next is Annette's card featuring Garden Green, Black & White

Save

Her greeting is from the Peaceful Cabin stamp set. It's on an Everyday Label punch. She punched a second piece in Black and cut it in half vertically to layer on the White one. Simple & beautiful!

Summer Shadow dies & Shaded Summer; a beautiful pairing!

August 27, 2021

I'm sharing our Flowerbug Team swaps featuring Sale-a-Bration choices. This amazing card was created by Paula.

She used the Summer Shadow dies seen here along with the Shaded Summer stamp set. This stamp set is in the Annual Catalog on page 75 and the dies are a free choice during SAB/Sale-a-Bration. However remember that these dies are expected to sell out before the end of September when SAB ends. See them here.

This is also a fun fold card. Her Black card is 5 1/2" X 8 1/2" and is scored at 2 1/8" X 4 1/4". The front left panel is folded back.

Look at the many layers of die-cuts she added here! Lots of Vellum along with Polished Pink ink and Just Jade & Soft Succulent card stock & inks. Placing the die-cuts on Black really brings out the color & details.

Save

The designer paper on the left panel is from the Pattern Party 12 X 12 Host paper. It's one of the choices you get free with an order over $150; host rewards kick in at this level. See it here or on page 171 in the Annual catalog.

Have a great weekend everyone!
