Simple & fun card sketch with Honeybee Home

February 3, 2022

Do you ever use card sketches to get inspired? I love them! I find most of them on Pinterest.

We use card sketches & color combos on my Flowerbug's Team group for challenges & inspiration. It's so fun to see the different projects everyone comes up with. This is the sketch we're using now:

I used it as inspiration to create this card with the Honeybee Home bundle and the Simply Marbelous designer series paper.

It's such an easy sketch to use. Some are using card stock, others designer paper and one used ribbon!

My card is Basic Bray with Bumblebee accents. Gray & yellow are beautiful together. In fact one of my bathrooms has these colors!

The Simply Marbelous designer paper was my color inspiration. This 6 X 6" DSP is free with a $50 Stampin' Up! order through the month of February; or while supplies last. See it here.

On the video I share my tips on placing these 1/4" strips. It's a little tricky but entirely doable!

The greeting and flower die are placed on a circle die-cut from the Beautiful Shapes dies seen here.

See this Honeybee Home bundle here. The stamp set has pretty images & greetings and the dies work great as silhouettes!

The pretty Citrus Blooms dies

August 28, 2024

While I was creating for my Live video projects I wanted to show off the pretty Citrus Blooms dies.

Save

The colors include Night of Navy, White & Old Olive. I added a small strip of the Mediterranean Blooms DSP under the Greeting of the Season white die-cut label. See these dies here; you will love them!

You can see the two Citrus Bloom dies I used to create this White & Olive frame in the photo below. I like that stitched die a lot; it can be used alone or with this leafy die. See the Citrus Bloom dies here.

Below is a video where I share a few more ideas for the Mediterranean Blooms DSP.

You’ll love this easy sketch idea for a quick & pretty card

August 27, 2024

On last week's Live video I focused on the pretty Mediterranean Blooms designer paper and this pretty color combination:

Save

My colors include Lemon Lolly, Night of Navy, White & a touch of green in the pretty Mediterranean Blooms DSP. It's on sale for a few more days! See it here.

The card base is 4 1/4"X 11" scored at 5 1/2". The Lemon Lolly is 4" X 5 1/4", DSP is 2" X 5 1/4", Navy strip 1/4" X 5 1/4"

Each month in my Flowerbug's Team we have an optional challenge that features a sketch of color combination. This is the current sketch and it inspired me to create this pretty card.

Save

Card sketches are drawings or images that can help inspire your creativity. They're a starting point. Use the basic design and change it any way you'd like.

The greeting is from the Nested Essential dies seen here. The pretty embossing folder on the Lemon Lolly layer is called Dashing Designs and can be seen here.

A Pretty Diamond Fold card with free project sheet & video tutorial

August 26, 2024

This card fold looks a bit tricky but it is super easy to make!

Save

It features the beautiful Mediterranean Blooms designer paper. My colors include Lemon Lolly, Night of Navy & White.

This card starts out at 11" X 4 1/4"; score at 5 1/2" & 8 7/8".

How did I get that square to pop up on the end? Watch the video to see! But basically you trim off the outer corners from the scored and folded end.

Save

I fussy cut the lemon bunch from the designer paper. The Citrus Blooms bundle coordinates with this pretty DSP but I didn't use them here. The greetings are from the Thoughtful Wishes stamp set.

Here's the inside view:
