Snowman Magic WOW card; amazing work by Candace!

November 21, 2022

Last weekend we held our monthly Flowerbug's Team swap. Our theme was fun folds! I know you're going to love seeing their wonderful creations.

Today I'm sharing two cards featuring the Santa Express designer paper. This first is made by Candace. She used the Snowman Magic bundle seen here in the 2022 Holiday Catalog.

Amazing, right?!

It folds flat for mailing and fits in a standard A2 envelope.

I'm going to do my best to provide the correct card stock measurements for this:

Shaded Spruce 2 pieces at 4" X 6" score on the long sides at 2" & 5 1/2"; turn and score on the short side at 2". Cut up to the score lines and trim off the extra 1/2" strip.
inside pieces are 1" X 5 1/2" scored at 3/4" from both ends. The scored ends are folded and adhered to the outer edges of the box inside.

She used 1/4" strips of Window Sheets to hold up the snowflakes and holly. The snowmen, trees and bunny are adhered to the box and inside strips. It's so darn cute!

All of these elements are in the Snowman Magic bundle!

Next is another incredible card made by Brenda; she chose to use the Santa Express designer paper also and added the coordinating Santa's Delivery bundle to hers.

Save

It's a side-step fun fold card. She chose to use Petal Pink and Pear Pizzazz for her card base & layers. I love the jumping penguins and that smoke stack!

Save

Here are the measurements:

Card base 5 1/2" X 6" scored in half at 4 1/4". Then make a mark at the 1" and at 6 3/8" at the 3" mark across.
Now you'll cut from those marks down the center of the card.
Next score up to the cut line at 1", 2", 3 1/4" and 6 3/8"

Save

She cut the trains from the Santa Express designer paper using the Santa's Train dies; which coordinate perfectly. The cute penguins & smoke are stamped, colored & die-cut. They're added with 1/4" strips of Window sheets so they pop up and flutter when opened. Just adorable!

Remember some of these items can sell out before the catalog ends. Already we are out of the Lights Aglow specialty DSP.

Sweet Citrus video; a Grapefruit version with optional gift card

March 8, 2023
We made this CUTE fun fold card at my February Card Clubs and it was a big hit! Everyone loved the fresh color combo and how cool the textured fruit images are.

Save

I used the Sweet Citrus bundle seen here and these colors: Flirty Flamingo, Pale Papaya and Granny Apple Green. You can sure see the texture in the photo above. Did you know you can use our Hybrid embossing folders to texture and die-cut all at once? It's super cool and saves a step.

I show how in the video along with how to stamp the fruit perfectly using the Stamparatus. Perfect every time!

Save

The card is a bit different in that the lower panel can be left open to add a gift card or money into. Or seal it up; your choice.

Sweet Citrus bundle with a Hybrid embossing folder; you can texture & cut at the same time!

March 7, 2023

In a recent video I shared multiple projects featuring the Sweet Citrus bundle. Every card I make with this set is my favorite! How can that be?

Save
Let's start with colors – they're Balmy Blue with Daffodil Delight and Garden Green. So fresh and spring-like.

The designer paper is called Country Gingham seen here.

The images and greetings are all from the Sweet Citrus stamp set. It comes in a bundle with dies AND a Hybrid embossing folder. See it here

What is a Hybrid embossing folder? It's one that allows you to cut AND texture at the same time.  You can use it the usual way as well. But using the die & folder together eliminates a step. I show how it's done in the video here.

Save

There are many reasons to get this bundle but the greetings are a big one. So perfect and coordinate nicely with the stamp theme.

Save

I shared lots of samples in the video; I hope you watch it! Remember to follow me on Facebook here or on YouTube here.
