Stunning Marbled Elegance swap cards


Today I'm sharing some card swaps I received from a mail out swap I participated in.   These cards all feature the Marbled Elegance suite seen online here.  

First up is a pretty card made by my friend Kelly Acheson: 

She added a bunch of gold elements plus a fussy cut 'xoxo' greeting. She heat embossed the greeting, used Gold Foil for her die-cut heart and DSP layer plus the new Twisted Gold thread and Gold Adhesive-backed Hearts. Whew!

This next card was created by another sweet friend from Minnesota, Kay Kalthoff.  

She used the Classic Wedding bundle seen here.  So cute!  Love the car with the 'just married' banner added to the back.

Next is a beautiful card made by another Minnesota friend; Sandy Carlson.  

Her colors are Melon Mambo with Gold & white. She used two of the heart dies in the bundle plus textured the White square die-cut with the So Swirly embossing folder.  I love banners and adding that 2" banner on the left adds a good amount of this Marbled Elegance DSP without overpowering the card.

Lastly we have a gorgeous card made by my friend Ruth Bingle from Arkansas. We love to hang out together on our SU trips. She's a doll!

Her card has a center flap opening.  I didn't get a photo of the inside though.  She used the Metal plate folder for her embossed strips on the side.  Isn't that gold textured heart die-cut gorgeous!?

I'll share more card swaps tomorrow.

  • Get inspired by a sketch with this sweet Splash of Sparkles card


    Each month I give my Flowerbug’s a creative challenge and they can participate if they’d like. This month it was a sketch:

    You can find card sketches like this all over Pinterest or other online sites. I think they’re a wonderful and easy way to create a card. Remember that sketches are a starting point; they don’t have to be exact or even that similar. They’re a great way to be inspired.

    I chose the Splash of Sparkles specialty designer paper for mine. See it here.

    My colors include Bubble Bath, Timid Tiger, Gold & White; all inspired by the beautiful designer paper. Who would have thought to combine these colors together? But the DSP is the magic that makes it work.

    I used a few different products here:

    Here’s a link to my sketches board on Pinterest. I hope you find some to be inspired by!

  • Another version of the Triple Flap fun fold card with Easter Joy DSP


    Today I’m sharing Jacki’s amazing card swap from our Team’s February swap.

    She used Pretty in Pink with Crumb Cake and the Easter Joy Specialty designer paper. The fun dies in Crumb Cake are from the Swirled Designs bundle seen here.

    This is what it looks like when you open the left flap:

    And here is the card fully opened:

    Isn’t it neat?! I loved it so much I had to case this fold. I shared my version yesterday. See it here.
    I also shared a free project sheet with measurements on yesterday’s post.

    What a special and fun card she made! Thanks Jacki!

  • Gorgeous Triple Fold card with Garden Poetry with video & free project sheet


    I shared this stunning card on last week’s Live video. It features a few of my favorite products..

    I chose to feature my favorite new designer paper – Garden Poetry seen here. Aren’t the patterns and watercolor backgrounds beautiful?

    This is Poppy Parade, Black & White.
    The other items I used are the Nature’s Symphony bundle, the Perennial Postage and Springtime Scenes dies (flower).

    The front left flap opens like this:

    Then you open the right side and fold the left in and this is what you see:

    I fussy cut a flower from the designer paper to add inside. The Black die-cut leaves are both from the Nature’s Symphony dies.

    Here’s the free project sheet; click here to download or print it off.

    The card was inspired by my teammate Jacki, who shared this neat fun fold in our February swap. I’ll share her card tomorrow.

    Below is the video tutorial; I hope you like it enough to make one. It’s a super fun card!
