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!

  • One Sheet Purse mini album; Double free Sale-a-Bration choices ends tomorrow!


    Here's a cute one sheet mini album you can make with one 12 X 12" designer paper sheet.  I made it during a recent Facebook Live.  See the video here. 

    I chose to use the Pleased as Punch Designer Series paper. It coordinates with four of our current punches; the Umbrella, Tulip, Small Blooms and Heart punch pack.  This paper is only available through March!  See it here and get it while you can. 

    The finished size is about 4" X 3". You can add photos anywhere including inside the pockets. 

    I used the Under My Umbrella bundle (seen here) and the Small Blooms punch for the flowers.  I rounded the corners with the Detailed Trio punch. 

    Measurements:

    • Start with an 8 X 12" sheet of paper
    • Score it at 4" on one side horizontally (Be aware of the direction of your paper!)
    • Rotate the paper and score it at 3", 6" and 9".  Cut up to the score line.  (See video; it starts about 19 minutes in.) 
    • The cover/wrap is 4" X 8 1/2"

  • Honey Bee Fun Fold-card with Golden Honey paper


    Here's a unique fun fold card that's super easy too!  We made them at my March card clubs.  

    They had a choice of colors, either Pineapple Punch or Lovely Lipstick to go with the Golden Honey specialty designer paper. Unfortunately this gorgeous paper is no longer available; they ran out of it a few weeks ago.  It was free during our Sale-a-Bration promotion that is still happening!  Be sure to get your favorites while supplies last and before March is over!  

    On the above card we stamped the hive in Pineapple Punch and added a few die-cut bees and a greeting.   Here's the inside view: 

    And below is the Lovely Lipstick version.  Each of the cards uses the Honey Bee bundle seen on page 30 of your January – June mini catalog.  Click here to see it online.  The Detailed Bee dies have been unavailable for a few weeks but I hope they'll be back soon!  

    And below you can see the video I made for this fun fold card.  

    Measurements:
    Black CS 4 1/4" X 11" scored at 1 3/8" and 2 3/4" from each end, 4 1/4" X 5 1/2" for front
    Honey Bee Designer paper – upper piece is 2 3/4" X 5 1/4", lower is 1 1/2" X 5 1/4"
    Pineapple or Lovely Lipstick CS strip is 1/2" X 5 1/2", 2 3/4" X 3 3/4" for die-cut oval
    White scrap 2 3/4" X 3 3/4" for oval die-cut, inside is 4" X 5 1/4", greeting strip is 3/4" X 3" and
    scraps for bees
