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!  

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" 

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!  

See the Santa's Train bundle here and the Santa Express DSP here. 

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

  • 3 Fun Projects & Video with the Circle Celebration stamp set


    I tried not to order the Circle Celebration stamp set but it kept calling out 'Order me!'  So I caved….and am so glad I did!  The images seem like they're almost 'retro' style which I love.  I do enjoy creating my own stamped background and these are perfect for that.  

    Today I'm focusing on the cards on the right.  I made them with the Bokeh technique.  It's so fun and almost 3D in appearance.  

    You start out with a sponged background. I used our new Blending Brushes that are awesome! They are currently out of stocks but should be back at the end of March.

    Randomly sponge ink colors onto our Basic White CS.  Choose colors that somewhat coordinate if possible.  this can be difficult for some who struggle with color combos. I choose colors that when mixed do not make mud.  How do I know which colors don't mix?  Trial and error of course!  Here I used Night of Navy, Bermuda Bay and Gorgeous Grape.  Aren't these colors gorgeous together?!!!

    *Another combo I might pick are yellows, oranges & reds.  Or greens & blues!  

    Once you're done you add sponged circles using White Craft ink.  I made my own stencils by punching circles out of card stock.  I share tips on using and re-inking our White Craft ink in the video below.

    The greeting is from the Best Year stamp set in the Annual Catalog and the butterflies AND white dotted die-cut 'holes' are from the new Brilliant Wings bundle seen here.

    Here is the video; I hope you watch it to see how to make these fun projects!

  • Hot Dog; what an amazing fun fold card!


    Have you been enjoying the window cards I've shared this week?  I have more coming tomorrow!   My Flowerbug's Team amaze me each and every month.  They really put effort into creating incredible projects like this fun & amazing card Annette made with the Hot Dot stamp set!  

    I was blown away by it! She based her colors off of the Playful Pets designer paper seen here. *this will likely retire in a week!

    It took a lot of time and effort into lining up the Stitched Nested Label dies so the Real Red window lined up with the inside layers.  She told me that she adhered the designer paper to the front of the card before die-cutting the window.  She did by placing the die between the layers cutting side up; in the middle of the card itself. That takes some patience in lining it all up! 

    Products Used:

    Measurements: 

    • Black Card base 5 1/2" X 8 1/2" scored at 2 1/8" and 6 3/8"

    • DSP on front 2" X 5 1/4" and inside are 3/4" X 5 1/4"

  • Two Unique Window cards with Dragonfly Dreams & Soar Confidently stamp sets.


    I'm featuring our Team Swaps this week and the theme was 'window cards'.  I was so impressed with each and every one of them!  

    First up is Deloris's card with the Dragonfly Garden stamp set seen here.

    The little dragonfly is from the Dragonfly Punch which is in the Dragonfly Garden bundle seen here. 

    She used two of the Stitched Label dies and the Subtle embossing folder.  Her colors are Pear Pizzazz and Rich Razzleberry.  I believe she colored the flowers in with Blends markers.  Beautiful job! 

    *The greeting and die-cut are retired and not currently available.

    Next is a gorgeous card made by Ginny.  She used the Oval dies and the Soar Confidently stamp set seen here.  

    Her colors are Crumb Cake with Soft Suede & Vanilla. That great texture is from the Tasteful Textile folder in the annual catalog. Adding a bit of color to the balloon really makes it stand out!  Take a look at the inside!
