Snowman Magic WOW card; amazing work by Candace!

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.

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.

• Team Swap cards featuring sponging techniques!

  April 26, 2021

  ---

  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. 

  Save

  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.  

  Save

  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!

  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.

  Save

  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. 

  Save

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

  The kit includes the following:

  • Box supplies; cut & scored

  • Tags; punched and ready for stamping
  • Designer paper, die-cuts and ribbon to decorate your box (DSP patterns may vary from photo)

  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.
