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

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. 

Dec Retro Circles Club[1] Save

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.

  • Three more background ideas on these Team swap cards

    Our Flowerbug's Team card swap theme was to create our own backgrounds.  I shared three cards yesterday and here are three more:

    Yellow is the underlying color on each of these swaps which is a perfect color for summertime. First is a pretty card in a blue & yellow combo by Candy.  

    July Candace bottled happiness Save

    She stamped the Timeless Tile background stamp and then textured it with an embossing folder.  She also used the Bottled Happiness stamp set. Her colors include Misty Moonlight & Daffodil Delight.  Such a beautiful card!

    ~~~

    Next is a card made by Jacki with the Hello Ladybug stamp set & Ladybug Builder punch.

    July Hello Ladybug Save

    She stamped her background with the daisy image in the stamp set, heat embossing it with White embossing powder.  It sure pops on the Black card stock!  She added Daffodil Delight & White card stock for a poppin' color combo.

    I LOVE her bumble bee!  She used the punch for the body (adding Daffodil Delight strips to the Black body) and the wings are punched from Window Sheets.  So clever and fun. 

    July Hacki Hello Ladybug Save

    Next is another pretty card made by Paula. She featured the Petal Park, Two-Tone Flora and Timeless Arrangements stamp sets. 

    July Paula Petal Park Save

    Her colors include Daffodil Delight, Black, White & Old Olive, stamped off.  She added a few Brass Butterflies and our Black & White gingham ribbon.  

    I'll share the rest of our swaps next week.  Have a great weekend!

  • 3 unique techniques on these pretty swap cards

    I'll be sharing our July Flowerbug Team swaps this week and next.  Our theme was to create our own backgrounds.  They came up with some amazing ideas.  I absolutely LOVE seeing their creativity and style.  

    First is a monochromatic card by Annette. I bet you'll never guess how she did this special background…..

    June Annette ink dragging Save

    She used Orchid Oasis and Boho Blue ink spots and dragged the ink across her white card stock. One color in each direction.  I was shocked at how pretty and evenly colored it is. I think it looks like denim. It's the perfect way to highlight the pretty die-cut. I'm going to try this myself soon! 

    Her greeting is heat embossed with White embossing powder on a die-cut from this bundle.  

    She used the Wonderful Thoughts bundle seen here. 

    WONDERFUL THOUGHTS BUNDLE (ENGLISH) Save

    Next is a pretty card that Monica made with the Color & Contour stamp set & Scalloped Contour dies. 

    July Monica Color & contour set Save

    She created a blended and masked background using Orchid Oasis and Daffodil Delight.  She added a bit of Pool Party on the flower and the card base too.  I love these colors together! 

    ~~~

    And lastly today is a unique technique by Lori. I'm not sure I've done this one! Can you guess how she did it….?  

    July Lori Birds eye view Save

    She first scored her White card stock about 1" apart, on the diagonal. Then she folded the card stock on each score line and sponged Balmy Blue ink on each fold.  I know I've never done this one; at least in my memory I haven't.  So cool and very precise too!  

    She used the Circle Sayings bundle for her greeting & punch. The bird is water-colored with our watercolor pencils. 

    She used the new Bird's Eye View stamp set seen here.  She also stamped her envelope.

    Stop back in for more Team swaps tomorrow!
