Stunning Prairie Grass sunset scene with a masked moon & video tutorial


I'm thrilled to share this amazing card with you today.  We made it at my July card clubs. 

I created a beautiful sunset with stamps, ink and a 'moon mask'.  I used Blending Brushes with Secret Sea, Darling Duckling and Timid Tiger inks.  

It features the beautiful Prairie Grass stamp set seen here.  Since I'm from North Dakota where we have tons of 'prairie' this set was a must have!  *Unfortunately it is now out of stock but you can add your email to be informed when it's available. It should be back around August 11th. 

After stamping the grassy image we added a post-it note mask made from a circle punch. Then we blended the inks on little by little.  It's important to use less ink and more time to get this pretty soft effect. 

See the flap on the left side of the card above?  That flap holds down the front of the card.  So simple but a fun technique. Notice the light sponging on the greeting inside?  

I created a free project sheet for this card.  You can print or download it by clicking on the following link: Download Prarie Grass July 2025

And here's the video below where I share how to create this gorgeous card and two other cards featuring this amazing Prairie Grass stamp set.

  • Forever Friends kit; a beautiful set of foil accented cards & envelopes


    Two weeks ago I had time to create at a stamping get together at our church.  I took 3 kits and make them in about an hour and a half.  Stress free and fun!  I love using our kits because I have everything I need to make the cards; I simply need adhesives and a bone folder.!

    Here's the start of my 9 cards.

    And here are the finished cards!  I did change up the greetings because I needed a bunch of thank you cards.  I kept the kit mostly as is since they were so pretty as designed.  

    This kit is called Forever Friends and can be seen here.  It's $21 and includes everything you need to create 9 cards with coordinating envelopes like stamps, a block, ink, embellishments & more.  

    It's just one of our many kit available in our Kit Collection online.  

    Each kit includes pre-cut pieces and printed images. Some kits include stamps, ink and a block. Others do not and are ready to finish without any stamping.  You can choose what fits your needs.  

    Below is a snapshot of some of the kits in our collection.  They are available from one year; but supplies can run out within that year. But they'll restock them once they do for up to that year.  See them all here. 

    Have a wonderful Memorial weekend!

  • Beautiful Balloons card swaps


    This week I've been sharing card swaps made by my Flowerbug's Team.  Our swap theme for May was to use new products from the 2023-24 Annual Catalog.  

    This colorful, birthday card was made by Sharon. It's full of texture, patterns and is also a simple fun fold. 

    She trimmed off an inch from the right side of her card front to reveal the neat fringe die-cut on the inside of the card.  The pattern paper is from the Bright & Beautiful 6 X 6" paper seen here.  

    More details:

    • Colors include Boho Blue, Berry Burst, Lemon Lime Twist & Blueberry Bushel. 
    • The balloons & greeting are die-cuts from the Beautiful Balloons bundle
    • The texture on the card front is made with the Basics 3D 3 pack of embossing folders seen here. They're part of our Online Exclusives.

    Both of the cards today are made with the Beautiful Balloons bundle seen here.  It's a fabulous set of balloon themed stamps & dies. 

    Next is another simple fun fold made by Lori.  Her colors are Lemon Lime Twist, Misty Moonlight, Blueberry Bushel & a bit of Berry Burst.  

    Measurements:

    • Lemon Lime Twist card base 4 1/4" X 5 1/2"
    • Misty Moonlight 3 1/4" X 11" scored at 5 1/2"
    • Bright & Beautiful DSP 3" X 5 1/4"
