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.  

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. 


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.  

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! 

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!

    I am so excited about sharing this project on today's FB Live video!  

    In the photo below you'll see something that looks like a card…. but it's not!  

    It's actually a card folio that 'fits' cards inside.  Today is a sneak peek; I'll share details in the video today and more on tomorrow's blog post. 

    I've made one years ago and when my friend Susie Wood shared hers I had to make one too!  I chose to use the Good Feelings stamp set seen here.  It's on sale starting today with the Seasonal Sale.  It was $24 but is not $20.40.  

    In the folio I used the Contoured Scalloped dies for the frame, a few dies from the Penned Flower dies seen here.  They were $30 and are now $24. I also used the coordinating Hand-Penned Petal stamp set seen here.  They were $22 and are now $18.70. 

    My colors include Soft Succulent, Petal Pink, Evening Evergreen and Calypso Coral.  The pretty Designer Paper is the new Fitting Florets seen here; it's available through January 4th or while supplies last.  It's also part of my card kit to go seen here or the PDF tutorial here.

    Join me here at 11 am Central time on Facebook.  Or click here to see it on YouTube later.
