Sparkling Snowflakes Easy 5 Card Wonder with free templates & video

I'm excited to share today's project. You may know this but I LOVE stamping one sheet wonders! I have created many of them and the layers & templates to make them super easy to use. *see them here

On last week's Live video I shared these pretty snowflake cards; made with my Easy 5 card wonder templates. 

Sparkling Snowflakes all Save

I used the Sparkling Snowflakes stamp set seen here. Snowflakes can be wintery or holiday; they're quite versatile.  I added greetings using the Tailor Made Tags & Stylish Shapes dies with a bit of Elegant trim cording.

My colors include Coastal Cabana, Pretty Peacock, Pool Party & Fresh Freesia. 

I started out with a full 8 1/2" X 11" sheet of Basic White card stock. I stamped the snowflakes down the center so some would be on each of the card front pieces.  Each piece measures 3 1/2" X 4 3/4".

You can see the stamped pieces below.  There is very little waste.  I love being able to create my own patterns with different color combos.  It's so fun and reminds me why I love stamping!

After you've stamped and cut your 5 layers, you can choose to stamp your greetings in the open area or add greetings using a punch or die-cut.

Now choose a coordinating piece of card stock to create the colored layers for the card fronts. Below is the template with measurements. Again it starts with an 8 1/2" X 11" piece of colored card stock. Each piece measures 3 5/8" X 4 7/8".

  • More Monochromatic swaps featuring flowers

    I’m sharing more of my Team’s monochromatic swaps today. These pretty cards all feature flowers. 

    This first stunning card is made by Barb who used the Spotlight on Nature stamp set. I was shocked to see it on the Last Chance list and it’s already out of stock! 

    August Joan Spotlight Save

    Joan is a master at coloring!  Look at the shadow effect she achieved on the flowers and leaves! It looks like it’s raised but it’s simply stamped and Blends marker was added all around the image.

    The other stamps she used are Sentimental Framing and Textured Notes. The inks are Granny Apple Green & Memento Black. She added Holographic Resin Dots, a linen thread bow and Wink of Stella on the butterfly to finish it off.  

    She gave me measurements I can share with you too! 

    • Lemon Lime Twist 4 1/4″ X 5 1/2″
    • Granny Apple Green 3 1/2″ X 11″ scored at 5 1/2″
    • White 3 1/4″ X 5 1/2″, inside is 3″ X 5″, greeting is 3 1/4″ X 1″
    • Season of Elegance DSP 2 pieces at 3/4″ X 5 1/2″

    Here’s a view of the card opened:

    You’ve created a beautiful card Joan!

    Next is a card made by Joan’s mom, Barb. It’s her first time swapping with us and she did a wonderful job! 

    August Barb Gallery Blooms Save

    Barb chose the Gallery Blooms stamp set. She stamped the flower in Night of Navy and used Wink of Stella to pull the color into the image. Very cool idea! 

    She used the Textured Notes dies (2nd & 3rd largest) for her blue layers of Night of Navy and Blueberry Bushel. 

    Measurements:

    • Night of Navy card base 4 1/4″ X 11″ score at 5 1/2″
    • Blueberry Bushel 4 3/4″ X 3/4″, scrap for greeting
    • White 2 3/4″ X 4 1/2″ for die-cut, inside is 3 1/2″ X 4 3/4″

    Beautiful job Barb!

    Next is a pretty card made by Candace featuring the pretty Charming Day bundle seen here. 

    August Candace Charming Day Save

    Her colors include White, Soft Seafoam and Basic Gray.  She added color to the floral die-cut with Blends markers and then added Wink of Stella to all of the die-cuts. 

    The pretty leaf die-cuts also have Soft Seafoam Blends added. The texture is the Exposed Brick embossing folder seen here.   I just love the clean look of this pastel color with White.

    Here’s the inside view.  Simply stamping the flower image in the same ink is a beautiful say to finish it.

  • Beautiful Monochromatic swaps with 3D embossing folders

    This week I’ll be sharing my Flowerbug’s Team swaps for August.  Our theme was monochromatic and they are all wonderful!

    The two cards today are both made with 3D embossing folders. This first pretty card was made by Tracey. 

    Save

    Her colors include Petal Pink, Calpyso Coral and Cajun Craze. She used the Happy Hibiscus bundle. It was on the Last Chance list; but only the embossing folder & dies are left but they are discounted and they easily stand alone without the stamp set!  See them here. 

    She started with the Beautiful Bokeh DSP seen here and after texturing it added ink with sponging and the ‘Direct to Paper’ method. This is when you add ink by tapping or rubbing the ink pad directly onto the paper.  She blended Calypso Coral on the large flowers, Timid Tiger on the Medium ones. She finished by dragging White Craft ink across it all. 

    Here’s how she stamped the inside:

    This next card was made by Lori. She used the beautiful Sunflower 3D embossing folder seen here.  

    This folder is out of stock right now.  But you can put your name on a list (on the link above) to be notified when it becomes available again. 

    August Lori Sunflower Save

    Her colors include Daffodil Delight with Early Espresso.  The card base is Crushed Curry. 

    She sponged Daffodil Delight ink to the raised areas and it looked so much like Crushed Curry she used that for the card base. I love that she added an extra sunflower to the front to give it more dimension!  This one is fussy cut. 

    Her greeting is from the More Messages bundle seen here.   

    I’ll be sharing our swap cards all week; stay tuned!

  • How to use the Sunflower 3D folder on Designer Paper; with video

    The Sunflower 3D embossing folder is so popular I featured it on my team card swap this month.  The theme was monochromatic.  

    Save

    What do you think?  Can you guess what DSP I used here?  

    Sunflower card Country Home Save

    It’s the Country Home DSP seen here.  Once I textured it I chose the debossed side (raised flowers are on the opposite side) to add ink to. 

    I first lightly rubbed Pecan Pie ink across the embossed surface. Then added a bit of Calypso Coral ink over that.  The effect is quite subtle but so pretty.  

    This gorgeous Sunflower 3D embossing folder seen here is out of stock right now.  It’s so popular this is the second time they ran out! But you can put your name on a list (on the link above) to be notified when it becomes available again. 

    SUNFLOWER 3D EMBOSSING FOLDER Save

    The greeting is from the Label Me Grateful set and stamped on an Arches die-cut and layered on another die-cut.  My cardstock includes Pecan Pie, Basic Beige and Early Espresso.
