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!

Save

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.

Cute Little Ladybug projects!

January 16, 2020

I created some adorable projects on my Facebook Live this week with the Little Ladybug's stamp set! Check it out here. Every Tuesday at 11 am CT I'm Live here. **Although it will be on Wednesday, January 22nd next week instead.

Save

We made them at my Flowerbug's Team meeting on Saturday too.

The Little Ladybug stamp is found at the back of the Sale-a-Bration catalog. It's FREE with any $300 order. Tomorrow I'll share ideas on how you can earn it yourself.

Or place an order with me during January and get in on the prize drawing for one lucky person who will get this stamp set free!

The card above on the left was made by my friend Susie Wood; it's a spinner card! I loved it so much I had to make one. I'll share the details on that card tomorrow and another card next week.

Save

I used punches to create the windows on this card from the 5 1/4" X 4" Black CS; it's really a great way to highlight your images. Sometimes I struggle with smaller images; just what do you do with them to create a great card?!

You could use anything in the windows; greetings, flowers, critters – the sky's the limit! Look at your stamps in a whole new way!

Did you notice the 'fussy cut' greetings? I have a tip for you! Save the paper backing on your red rubber stamps and use it as an outline to trace over your stamped greeting. Or if you didn't save it, trace the main rubber stamp itself. Save the template in your stamp case for repeated use.

Happy Birthday to You; a free stamp set!

January 15, 2020

Have you seen this pretty stamp set yet? The cake on a pedestal image is quite pretty and easy to color too.

And guess what?! They are releasing a set of die-cuts for this set next month! It includes 7 dies including one for the entire cake, just the flowers, a detailed pedestal and two sets of leaves. It will be for purchase; it's not part of Sale-a-Bration. There are 6 new items they'll release on February 4th that coordinate with items in the new Mini catalog and Sale-a-Bration catalog. I'll share more on that soon.

This pretty card has a bit of the Parisian Blossoms Designer Series Paper on the edge; it brings together the soft colors of Pool Party, Petal Pink and White. It's a bonus card for those who take my New Catalog stamp a stack class on January 25th.

Save

That detailed scalloped rectangle is from my favorite new set of dies; Stitched So Sweetly. It's one of the best things in the new Mini Catalog!

I colored the cake with Blends markers in Petal Pink, Pool Party and Mint Macaron. The greeting is stamped in Smoky Slate. Note the addition of the Champagne Rhinestones and Petal Pink/Champagne ribbon!

The Parisian Blossom DSP, Champagne Rhinestones and Petal Pink/Champagne ribbon are all included in this month's Cards kit to go. Click here to get the details on it. Or message me at lagreff60@gmail.com

Here's a photo of all you get in the kit; $20 in product plus the 10 pre-cut cards! All for $28 before shipping. You do need to RSVP by tomorrow, Thursday January 16th to receive it though!

You can see these products in my online store by clicking on the photos below. If you are reading this in an email you won't see the photos. You'll need to click on the title of this blog post to get to my actual blog. Then you'll see everything!

Another Positive thoughts card; in a unique color combination

January 14, 2020

I have no idea where I came up with this color combination. I started out with the Petal Pink because I wanted to use the gorgeous champagne edged ribbon. Maybe I was avoiding green; but the Basic Gray looks beautiful with the Petal Pink!

Save

The Positive Thoughts stamp set is so easy to play with; the images are soft yet detailed which is totally my style. That embossing folder is called 'Coastal Weave'. It's a free gift to everyone who places an online order over $65 this month (detailed below).

AND, they are coming out with dies to coordinate with this stamp set in February! I'm so excited about them. It includes 11 dies for each of the images in the set plus more! A stitched rectangle, a detailed edgelit and more botanical images. You'll love them! They will be for purchase; they're not part of Sale-a-Bration.

Save

Besides the pretty images the greetings put me over the edge to buy it. I know I'll use them a lot.
