Simple Lily of the Valley card; it’s a WOW! Grab the free project sheet or watch the video

August 17, 2026

I shared this beautiful Lily of the Valley card on last week’s Live video. It’s one of those cards that looks simple and easy but involves a bit of effort.

I used the Lily of the Valley dies along with the Everyday Arches dies on the vellum and the Floral Spray 3D embossing folder (it’s back in stock) for the background. White & Granny Apple Green are my colors here.

Since I did-cut the flowers from White CS I used a Granny Apple Green blends marker to color the stems on the flowers. I also curled the die-cut leaves a bit and cut one apart for the thicker stems in the center area. Watch the video to see how.

Did you notice there isn’t a greeting on the front? It’s okay to leave them off now and then. This way my card can be used for any purpose.

I didn’t even stamp one on the inside. Just a simple leaf/flower image. Click here to see the Lily of the Valley in my store. It’s wonderful.

I created a free project sheet for this card as well as my video below. Click here for the project sheet you can download or print.

A WOW fun fold card with Dragonfly Dreams!

March 15, 2021
This weekend my Flowerbug's Team held our monthly card swap & Team gathering. Our theme was window cards and I'll be sharing them all week long!

Check out this special Z fold card Jacki made!

Her colors are Terracotta Tile, Black & White and the Dandy Garden Designer paper seen here. Did you know that the Dragonfly Punch coordinates with this Designer Paper? She punched her dragonflies directly out of the paper! No stamping for these at all! See the Dragonfly Garden bundle here.

Check out the whole suite of products here.

This card features almost two full card bases with just a few score lines. It looks a lot harder than it is.
- Terracotta Tile – 5 1/2" X 8 1/2" scored at 4 1/4"
- Whisper White – front is 4" X 5 1/4", inside fold is 5 1/4" X 8" scored on the long edge at 4" X 6".
- Designer paper – 1 3/4" X 5"
Her 'window' in the front is 2 3/8" and the black circle on the inside fold is the same. The White greeting circle is 2 1/8". All of these circles are cut with the Circle dies in the Annual Catalog.

Steps to assemble this card:
- You'll adhere the White front to the main card base and then cut your window.
- Stamp on the inside White card before adhering to the inside of the main card.
- Add the Designer paper to the inside fold.
- Die-cut the greeting circles and adhere together.
- Fold the card closed and add the circle to the inside fold 'through' the front window. Perfect placement!

Create gorgeous backgrounds with just a few common stamping items! Video tutorial!

March 12, 2021

On Tuesday's FB live I shared a fun and easy technique for gorgeous backgrounds. Once you create them you can use them to create stunning, beautiful cards like these:

Save

This was my first try at this technique this week. Honestly it's not a new technique at all but I hadn't done it for years! The stamp set is called Soar Confidently (seen here) and I hadn't used it yet. I think it works wonderfully with a pretty background.

I used Highland Heather, Gorgeous Grape, Bermuda Bay and Pacific Point Stampin' Write markers on an E block and spritzed with plain water. Then 'stamp' on our Basic White CS and let dry with the block on it (this prevents warping). Then stamp on it with any black ink.

Here are a few more samples I shared:

The left card above features the Dragonfly Garden stamp set and the right is the Floating & Fluttering set.

See what I mean? And it's fun too! Each time you do it they turn out differently so it's kind of addicting! Watch the video below to see how easy it can be.

Gorgeous Butterflies with the Brilliant Wing dies

March 11, 2021

I was playing around with these dies and came up with these striking colored butterflies.

Save

I used the designer paper as a template to sponge through. This is what's left after you use the Brilliant Wings dies to cut out the 6 butterflies. Although in hindsight I should have sponged on the other side so the die fit. It was upside down on the die; I had to hold it up to the light to get the die placed correctly.

Save

I added a piece of White CS behind these butterflies and used the Stitched with Whimsy dies to add that pretty stitched edge. See those here.

Click on the image below to see these items in my store. Remember this designer paper is available through May 3rd or while supplies last.

Save

The greeting is from the Vine Design stamp set on a 1/2" strip of Poppy Parade card stock.
