Incredible By the Bay suite projects by our Artist of the Month!

Each month one of my Flowerbug's team is the 'Artist of the Month'.  This month Bobby is the featured Artist and she chose to use the Seaside Bay bundle with the By the Bay Suite seen here.  It's filled with beautiful fold & pearl foil specialty designer paper, Flat Adhesive-Backed pearls & blue & white variegated ribbon.  

Seaside Bay for LeeAnn-1 Save

This pretty fun fold card was cased from Melva Peters

The Thank you sentiment is cut out with the Stitched Rectangular Framelit dies; she ran the long edge of the die over the sentiment at an angle to get the angled effect.  

Measurements:

  • Navy Card base 8 1/4" X 4 1/4" scored at 5 1/2"; second piece is 4 1/2" X 2 3/4" scored at 4"
  • DSP 2 1/2" X 4" and 3 3/4" X 2 1/2"
  • White inside is 5 1/4" X 4", scrap for greeting and clam shell die-cut

Magnetic closures are used to secure the card closed.  

Next is a pretty card cased from Leonie Stuart.

The pretty texture is done with the Seashells 3D embossing folder.  She also used a vellum circle, Night of Navy ink, Wink of Stella, the Natural Finish ribbon and linen thread.

This next card is her own creation; she did the floating technique with the By the Bay DSP seen here. 

Seaside Bay for LeeAnn-7 Save

The floating technique is where you add strips of paper to a window sheet leaving spaces between.  Then die-cut it out and it looks like it's floating.  She used the Stylish Shapes dies for the circle.  

More details:

The bird is cut from the By the Bay Designer Series Paper. Leaf Sprig is from the Framed Florets and the embossing is from the Seashells 3D embossing folder in the annual catalog.  

Here's the inside view – all done in Navy & Starry Sky inks.

Next is a gorgeous card cased from Gail Ellis.  

Seaside Bay for LeeAnn-7 Save

She added 1 3/8" squares to a die-cut stitched rectangle measuring 3 3/8" X 4 3/4".  I love the white on white with that pop of gold and sea greens & blues!  The Faux Sea Glass shapes are added too.

Lastly for today is a card cased from Evelyn Rosborough. A beautiful monochromatic card – some of my favorites! 

Seaside Bay for LeeAnn-5 Save

The DSP measures 3 1/4" X 5 1/2", the White layer is 3 1/2" X 5 1/2" on a Sahara Sand card base.  

The seashell is cut from the Texture Chic DSP and the greetings are cut from the Stitched Rectangle dies.  Love that foil sea grass accent!  

I'll share details on the other half of her cards tomorrow!

  • Cozy Christmas card kit to go; reserve yours now!

    I had fun creating these fantastic Christmas cards with a former Paper Pumpkin kit from last year. I have a limited quantity of these available this month in a kit to go.

    Save

    There are 12 cards with envelopes in this kit. I was able to change the kit from 9 to 12 cards. There are so many fantastic die-cut elements included in this one.

    This kit includes the pre-cut kit, envelopes, adhesives and gems. You will need a few greetings, inks and embossing folders if you choose to make them like I did.

    See it here in my store. It’s $31 plus shipping. The PDF tutorial is $17 and is seen here. The tutorial is emailed to you immediately after payment. The pre-cut kit is mailed out at the end of October.

    Remember that if you order more than one kit shipping is combines and you’ll save $$.

    See them all here.

  • Two more card kits & tutorial are now available for pre-order!

    I chose the Painted Patch designer series paper for one of my October card kits & tutorials (I have 3 this month!). The colors are incredible together and the patterns are fresh & fun. Look at these Fun Fold cards!

    Save

    This card kit includes 5 sets of cards and you’ll make 2 of each one. This kit is all unique fun fold layouts.

    I paired the Painted Patch DSP with the Painted Patch gems and the Calypso Coral & Copper ribbon. You’ll get a share of each of these products along with the 10 pre-cut cards and the PDF tutorial. Everything is pre-cut for you except the package of DSP. You’ll use the directions in the tutorial to cut your new paper. It’s so easy to create these cards when it’s all ready to go.

    I create my kits so you do not need a specific stamp set to finish them. All you need are some greeting images and a few inks.

    This kit can be seen here. It’s $32 plus shipping (order more than one to save $$). There is also a PDF tutorial available for $17. See that here.

    The tutorials are emailed to you immediately after payment. The pre-cut kits are mailed out at the end of October.

    I’ll share the third card kit tomorrow; it’s a Christmas card kit! Here’s a sneak peek:
