Artist of the Month Sending Smiles cards!

June 23, 2022

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:

Save

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.

Save

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!

Today's card is the second one I shared during last week's Live video. I chose to feature the Labeled with Love bundle.

Save

There's just something classy about a mostly white card. To me it seems like there's more focus on the main element – in this card a pretty butterfly tag. And the texture is a quiet backdrop.

Here are some of the products I used:
- Labeled with Love punch bundle seen here
- Dashing Designs 3D embossing folder seen here
- Something Fancy dies seen here

Is this your style of card? Or is it a bit too clean & simple?

Today's project is from last week's Live video seen here.

This neat fun fold card features the Lily Pond Lane designer series paper and the Labeled with Love punch bundle seen here.

The stamp set is available in a bundle with either a punch or a set of dies. Love that they have these options to please us all.

Save

My colors include Peach Pie, Pretty in Pink and Pretty Peacock which I got from the Lily Pond Lane DSP seen here. I still have a few card kits to go with this adorable designer paper. See them here; while supplies last.

Save

The card layout includes a quarter sheet on the base and a scored/folded 11" X 4 1/4" piece over it. A few White & DSP layers and that's it! It's quite simple. I did fussy cut the butterflies I added to the right panel.

Team swaps with the Unbounded Love bundle & more

July 18, 2024

Here are a few more of our June Team card swaps. I shared quite a few last week as well. Our theme was to use a new color along with an old favorite.

Lori made this card with Summer Splash and Berry Burst with White.

Save

She added the Unbounded Beauty designer paper, the Deckled Rectangle dies and a Paper Butterfly Accent too. It's also a fun fold card!

It's a Dutch Door fun fold. Making a Dutch Door fold is so simple. To a full quarter card base you'll add a second layer that opens from the side. Her horizontal layer is 8 1/2" X 2 3/4" scored at 4 1/4".

Save

I like that you cannot see the inside greeting layer until you open the card. The greetings are from the Unbounded Love bundle.

~~~

Next is a monochromatic card made by Rita. She also used the Unbounded Love bundle.

Save

Her colors include Peach Pie, Black and White. The DSP is the 2024-26 In Color 6 X 6" pack. She added embossed texture to the background. I especially like how she added that pretty leaf die-cut frame over her stamped greeting. A fabulous idea where you don't have to cut the greeting layer to match the die-cut exactly.

~~~

Lastly is a fun celebratory card made by Joan.

Save

She featured the 'Light the Sky' stamp set seen here online. I love her colors of Summer Splash with Real Red, Black & White.

~~~

Remember that for every $50 you spend in July you receive a $5 coupon to redeem in August on another order!

Bonus Days are a Win Win!!
