Artist of the Month Sending Smiles cards!


Each month my Flowerbug's Team has a featured 'Artist of the Month'.  For June, Marilyn chose to use the Sending Smiles bundle seen here.  

She made 5 projects and I'm showing the first three here: 

Her card base is Orchid Oasis and the flowers are stamped in Orchid, Polished Pink, Daffodil Delight and Old Olive.  The flower centers and leaves are separate images so it's easy to have multiple colors on your flowers.  

She layered the two 'Sending' dies using our awesome Adhesive Sheets; no glue mess!  The Birthday Wishes greeting is heat embossed and die-cut with one of the long dies in the bundle.  The background texture is the Quatrefoil embossing folder seen here.  

~~~

Next is a simple card with just a few layers using Fresh Freesia and Parakeet Party.  


I love the stamped background she did using Versamark.  The White layer is textured with the Painted Texture folder.  The Brass Butterflies are the perfect finishing touch!  

Her measurements are 2 7/8" X 3 7/8" for the White and 3" X 4" for the Parakeet Party.

Next is a fun fold card featuring the new hostess paper pack called Design a Daydream.  Anyone can get this with hostess benefits if the order is over $150. 

Here's a tip on making this diagonal fun fold card.  Cut your card base at 4 1/4" X 11" and score it at 5 1/2".  Now with your card base laying flat and horizontally, cut off the upper left half of this card base on a diagonal.  You'll add the layers of card stock and DSP to that but flip it before adhering it to the main card.  

She used the Layering Circles dies for her greeting.  I love that you can personalize your greetings with so many options.  This was one of my top 3 sets in the new Annual Catalog.  In fact it was one of the ideas I shared with Stampin' Up! for my Million Dollar stamp set!  

There are 22 stamps in the set and 14 dies!

    The font on this Merry Christmas stamp sold me on it. Just a little bit of the fun, curviness I love.

    This Merry Christmas stamp is a true classic with a bit of that Victorian feel to it. I don’t often keep retired stamps but I will keep this one! It’s on sale now too; while supplies last. Click here to see it.

    I paired it with the Traditions of Christmas designer paper here. It’s discounted and on the Last Chance list here. However it’s currently out of stock but should be back next week.
    A bit of holly and berries with some ribbon and you’re done! As you can see I added the same DSP to my envelope flap. Now that makes a card extra special!

    This next one features the Need for Tweed designer series paper. See that here. Fun prints with lots of texture. It’s also on sale right now and available while supplies last.

    I stamped the inside with greetings from the Traditional Labels stamp set.

    Aren’t they a beautiful set of cards! I will be making more of these and it’s a bonus that it uses up a nice piece of designer paper. No hoarding it!

    Here’s the free project sheet for you. Click here to download or print it.

  • Quick & Pretty Traditions of Christmas with video


    I shared how to create these beautiful Christmas cards on last week’s video. Scroll down to grab the free project sheet or watch the video.

    Aren’t they beautiful? Flower bouquet’s for Christmas? Absolutely!
    My colors include White, Real Red, Old Olive & Mossy meadow.

    These are made with a few products from the 2025 Holiday catalog and one from our Online Exclusives. Here’s the list:

    – Traditions of Christmas specialty designer series paper
    – Christmas Greenery dies seen here
    – Traditional Labels stamp set seen here
    – Peaceful Greenery embossing folder (now discounted) seen here
    – Textured Notes dies seen here

    Traditions of Christmas specialty designer series paper

    Whew! Seems like a lot but you could easily substitute other products. Instead of using the Christmas Greenery dies the bouquet from the DSP could be fussy cut.

    I’ve used this pretty designer paper a lot this season. It’s a sure winner with it’s gold foil accents. And it’s now discounted! See it here.

    It’s so easy to die-cut the florals with the dies in the Christmas Greenery dies I might just make a few more of these cards.
    I did texture the front of the card base but you could easily add a second layer to the front instead.

    Here’s the free project sheet for this card. Click here to print or download it and save to a folder on your computer.

    Below is the video tutorial for this card and one more quick Christmas card. I hope you watch it!

    *You’ll receive a PDF with multiple projects featuring this product
    after the 20th of the month.
