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!

  • Snowflake Wishes Fun Fold card with video; it’s easier than it looks!


    We made this pretty card at my December Card Clubs.  It features the Snowflake Wishes bundle and the Snowflake Splendor designer paper. 

    The colors were inspired by the beautiful Snowflake Splendor designer paper. It's Balmy Blue, White & Highland Heather.  

    This gorgeous designer paper is retiring in a few weeks and it's on sale now while supplies last!  See it here. 

    The Snowflake Wishes bundle is also retiring (as a bundle). It's returning separately in the upcoming Annual Catalog in May but it will not be 10% off then. See it here.

    The measurements can be found below.  It's a standard A2 card. Here's a copy of the project sheet for this card. 

    Measurements: 

    • Balmy Blue – 5 1/2" X 4 1/4", plus 4" X 11" scored at 2" and 3 3/4" from both ends
    • Snowflake Splendor DSP 1" X 4" (2 pieces)
    • Highland Heather 3 3/4" square
    • Whisper White 3 1/2" square for front, 3 1/2" X 3" for inside, 1" X 3 1/2" for front greeting

  • Life is Beautiful card; made from scraps


    Have you ever made a card from the scraps on your work space?  Or maybe you've been inspired by one as a starting point?  Every piece of this card was a scrap! 

    The stamped & layered main image was leftover from a project I was making but didn't like the shape for it.  So it sat in a pile for weeks. 

    The tree & greeting are stamped in Navy ink.  The snowflakes are stamped in Pool Party & Highland Heather. I added a few Snowflake Sequins too.  You can see them here.  They're 50% off right now; while supplies last.  They are perfect for shaker cards too. 

    The Highland Heather rectangles and the Navy strip were in my bag of scraps and the ribbon was an extra too!  Easy peasy! 

    I will sure miss playing with this stamp set when it retires on January 4th.  I'm so sad it's going away!  If you don't have it yet; I hope you order it before it's gone.  Click here to see it in my store; it's just $17! 

    Measurements:

    • Pool Party card 5 1/2" X 8 1/2"
    • White 3" X 3 5/8"
    • Navy 3 1/8" X 3 3/4", 3/4" X 5 1/2" strip
    • Highland Heather 2 1/2" X 3 1/2" pieces

    Tomorrow's Facebook Live will feature 2 fun fold cards using this stamp set. Tune in here at 11 am Central Time.
