STUNNING Christmas card swaps full of glitz & shine!


This is the third batch of swap cards made by my Flowerbug's Team for our November Glitz, Shine & Glimmer swap. 

First is a gorgeous card made by Roxann.  She thought of doing just an ornament but added it to a card front instead.  

Measurements:

  • Navy card base 8 1/2" X 5 1/2"
  • Shining Brightly specialty designer paper 4" X 5 1/4" (2023 Holiday catalog)
  • Ornament die-cuts from Gold foil, More Dazzle & Shining Brightly papers – stars from the Stars at Night dies (2023 Holiday catalog)
  • Greeting – Night Divine stamp set (2023 Holiday catalog)
  • Ribbon is the Navy & Gold ribbon (2023 Holiday catalog)

The Stars at Night & Night Divine bundles are both on the Last Chance list & available while supplies last. It looks like the Shining Brightly paper is sold out….. 

~~~

Next is an amazing 'Swing & Swap' card by Sharon. I might accuse her of being an overachiever with this card as it's over the top amazing!

It's hard to tell in the photo that the stars element swings back & forth.  It's so fun to play with! 

Products:

  • Navy card stock
  • Night Divine stamp set
  • Shining Brightly specialty designer paper (2023 Holiday catalog)
  • Silver & Gold adhesive-backed paper (Online Exclusives but sold out now)
  • Stars at Night & Deckled circle dies (2023 Holiday catalog)
  • Star Trinkets (2023 Holiday catalog but sold out)
  • Snowflake Sky 3D embossing folder (2023 Holiday catalog)

Measurements:

  • 10 1/4" X 5 1/2" score at 1 1/4", 3" & 6"
  • designer paper – two 1" X 5 1/4" strips, two 1 1/4" X 5 1/4" strips
  • circle 2 1/2"
  • strip for sway mechanism 1/2" X 2", small hole cut in top

Isn't it a fantastic card?!

  • Fragrant Forest & Countryside Corners in a fun fold layout with video


    I've been sharing my Fragrant Forest projects from last week's Live; this is the third one. I have a video below to watch plus free project sheets for each card too.  See this stamp set here.

    I chose a simple color combo of White & Pretty Peacock. The designer paper on the upper flap is the Hello, Irresistible from our Online Exclusives line. 

    The die-cuts are the Countryside Corners from the Annual catalog; seen here. Can you see the raised lines on the inside white? I used my Simply Scored 1/4" from each edge. 

    Here's the free project sheet with measurements, photo and more: Download Fragrant Forest Funfold card

    I couldn't decide if I like the clean look of the card on the lower right or the added forest on the lower left card. Which do you prefer? 

    Here's the inside view of the upper left card.  I used the Lasting Joy stamp set for my greeting and sentiments. I find I'm reaching for this one often. See it here. 

    You might wonder just how I achieved inking only the bottom half of this stamp on the inside of the left card above. Watch the video here. 

    I cut my stamp apart! 

    Cutting your stamps can make them so much more versatile!  And they fit right back together on your block if you do want to use the entire stamp.  Try it!

    On last week's Live video I featured the Fragrant Forest stamp set. Trees are one of my 'go to' choices for card making; I like most botanical images though. I find them comforting and versatile and this large background stamp is truly beautiful. 

    I kept my colors to White & Pretty Peacock. If you ever struggle with color combos try just one with White or Vanilla; they're usually quite beautiful. 

    Dies used here include the Countryside Corner dies (2023-24 annual catalog) & Forever Forest dies (2023 Holiday catalog) for the die-cut mountains on the bottom of the card . The greeting die-cut is from the Stylish Shapes dies; a definite must have! See the Fragrant Forest stamp set here. 

    Here's the inside view:
