Shabby Chic Lovely & Sweet card with video tutorial & free project sheet!


Here's the last card made in last week's video featuring the Nature's Sweetness suite. I absolutely love this color palette! 

It's Pecan Pie with Pebbled Path & Gold accents with a rich monotone look. Look closely at the layout. It's basically a few random layers with only one that's layered.  Adding a few smaller elements creates the balance here. 

Details & tips:

  • Note the distressed edges on a few of the layers. That is done by rubbing your open scissor blade over the edge of the paper.  Fast and fabulous results! *watch how I do it in the video below.
  • The large stamped Pecan Pie layer and the DSP square are both sponged with Pecan Pie ink to age them a bit. 
  • That butterfly is one of our Paper Butterfly Accents colored with a Light Natural Tones blends marker. I added some Gold Enamel Effects in streaks all over it. *see how in the video
  • I added Gold Enamel Effects as berries on the tall leaf die-cut on the left. 

Here's how I stamped the inside.  The greeting is from the Softly Sophisticated stamp set from Sale-a-Bration. 

Here's a picture of the Lovely & Sweet bundle I used here. See it online here.

  • NEW In Color Special Offer! Opt in by May 5th to get FREE markers!


    This year's In Colors are absolutely amazing and my favorite for many years!  Look at these pretty cards: 


    These were made with the new Flowers of Friendship stamp set and Color & Contours & Meadow dies. I used the new In Color blends markers to color them in and the incredible new ribbons as well. 

    My New Catalog open house event is next week Tuesday, May 4th from 3-6 pm. 

    Each year I offer my local gals a special deal on the new In Colors.  I put together a big bundle of products and with purchase, they get the 5 colors of Stampin' Write markers FREE!  Now I offer it to everyone; local or long distance!  And if you'd rather choose two pair of Blends markers instead that works too.

  • Team Swap cards featuring sponging techniques!


    Our latest Flowerbug Team swap featured sponging techniques and they knocked it out of the park!  Look at these: 

    The first card was made by Deloris. She used the Celebrate Sunflowers bundle.  These items are carrying over to the next catalog but they will no longer be a bundle at 10% off.  You can see it here. 

    Her colors are Bermuda Bay, Daffodil Delight and White. I absolutely LOVE the unique colors she used here and isn't her sponging amazing!?  That stitched rectangle of vellum adds the perfect, soft background for the beautiful flower.  

    Next is a fabulous card made by Candace using A Good Man stamp set.  

    Her colors are Crumb Cake, Night of Navy & Pool Party.  

    She sponged the edges of her stamped pieces and rubbed the Crumb Cake ink pad directly on the Painted Textures embossing folder before running it through the Cut & Emboss Machine.  *See that folder here. 

    That stitched tag is one of our new dies coming in the 2021 Annual Catalog.  It's called 'Tailor Made Tags'. the greeting is from the Inspired Thoughts stamp set; also new! She colored the image in with Blends markers. 

    Stop in again tomorrow for more cards featuring sponging techniques!

  • Limited Quantity of Mix & Match Box & Cards; a perfect gift!


    I have created many versions of this box & cards because I love it so much!  This first one features the True Love designer paper: 

    It's a perfect gift for anyone as they can mix and match the sentiments in the box to the occasion they need.  They'll remove the dimensional backing and add the tag to the card.

    You can choose between this kit to go here or the PDF Tutorial here.  The kit includes all pre-cut supplies needed to make this project; Designer Paper patterns may vary.  

    There's a second option featuring the Paper Blooms designer paper.  The Tutorial includes directions and photos for both plus extras from the past few years.  Click here to get this kit. 

    **You'll receive the PDF tutorial immediately upon payment via email.

    The kit includes the following:

    • Box supplies; cut & scored
    • 5-6 pre-cut cards
    • Tags; punched and ready for stamping
    • Designer paper, die-cuts and ribbon to decorate your box (DSP patterns may vary from photo)

    It does not include Dimensionals, stamping, sponges, markers, embellishments or adhesives.  

    I used the Many Mates stamp set but any greeting set will work.  You'll need Night of Navy or Black ink depending on which kit you choose.
