Summer Shadow dies & Shaded Summer; a beautiful pairing!


I'm sharing our Flowerbug Team swaps featuring Sale-a-Bration choices. This amazing card was  created by Paula. 

She used the Summer Shadow dies seen here along with the Shaded Summer stamp set. This stamp set is in the Annual Catalog on page 75 and the dies are a free choice during SAB/Sale-a-Bration. However remember that these dies are expected to sell out before the end of September when SAB ends.  See them here. 

This is also a fun fold card.  Her Black card is 5 1/2" X 8 1/2" and is scored at 2 1/8" X 4 1/4".  The front left panel is folded back.

Look at the many layers of die-cuts she added here!  Lots of Vellum along with Polished Pink ink and Just Jade & Soft Succulent card stock & inks. Placing the die-cuts on Black really brings out the color & details. 


The designer paper on the left panel is from the Pattern Party 12 X 12 Host paper.  It's one of the choices you get free with an order over $150; host rewards kick in at this level.  See it here or on page 171 in the Annual catalog. 

Have a great weekend everyone!

  • Last of the unique ‘Gift Card’ ideas with video!


    I've shared two other special gift card ideas and today I have another.  It's the last one I shared in this video. 

    It features the Penguin Place bundle seen here.   And it's now available but on low inventory; once more.  The punch was out of stock for a long time. 

    This penguin is super cute and quite versatile.  Certainly not just for Christmas!

    Details:

    • His main body is punched out of Black glitter paper. 
    • I fussy cut his scarf from Heartwarming Hugs DSP. 
    • I stamped the snowflakes on the Black CS using our White Craft ink.  

    This card opens up like this: 

    There's a fold inside that brings up the 'gift card' when you lift up the card front.  I did use Thick White CS for this so it stands up to lots of use. Isn't it fun?  It's quite easy too!

    Measurements for the Pull-Up Penguin Gift Card

    • Card base 4 ¼” X 5 ½”, DSP 2” X 3 ¾”
    • Black card 4” X 11” scored at 3 ½” & 8 ¾”
    • Inside Thick White 2 ½” X 5 ½” or 6” scored at 3/4" from each end
    • Front white 2” X 3”, Black 2 ¼” X 3 ¼”, Red 2 ½” X 3 ½”

    Below is the video tutorial.  It's the third & last project I share.

  • Extra special Gift Card idea with a pop up ‘gift bag’ inside the card!


    Here's another gift card idea for you.  It looks harder than it is; honestly! It's a 'gift bag' inside the card! 


    Here's the front view:  I used the angled Heartwarming Hugs designer paper piece I cut off from this card I shared yesterday.  I love it when I can use my paper efficiently! 

    I kept the front very simple as you can see.  The greetings are from the Encircled in Warmth stamp set seen here.

    I even added 'tissue' using the Ever Eden cotton paper!  It's a 6" piece I folded into points. 


    I used our Real Red sheer ribbon on the front for both the bow and the 'handles' inside the bag. Below is a photo of the gift bag cut out.  Measurements are included. 

    Pop-up Gift Bag card measurements:

    • Card base 4 1/4" X 11"
    • White – two at 4" X 5 1/4"
    • DSP 4” X 5 ¼” cut one section off diagonally
    • Purse 4” X 9 ½” scored on the 4” side at ½” & 3”, scored on the long side at ½”, 1”, 4 ½”, 5”, 5 ½” & 9”


    Below is the video for 3 different gift card options.  I'll share details on one more unique card tomorrow.

  • Need Gift card ideas? I have three!


    Last week I created 3 different gift card options on Facebook Live.  You can see it here.

    I'm sharing the first one today: 

    I used the Heartwarming Hugs designer paper seen here) and the Encircled in Warmth & Christmas Season bundle. 

    It's made from a 5 1/4" X 12" piece of designer paper; score it every 4".  Trim off one angle for the pocket and adhere it to a 4 1/4" X 5 1/2" card base.  

    Inside I added a 4 3/4" X 3 1/2" piece of White CS that I textured with the Star-Crossed embossing folder. I decorated the front & inside with stamped & die-cut images from the Christmas Season bundle seen here. 

    Depending on how you decorate this card it can be quite easy to make!  Below is the video for this one & 2 more gift card options.  I'll share details on another tomorrow.
