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!

  • Explosion ‘Wow’ cards with step by step video tutorial and template.

    We made explosion cards on Facebook Live Monday night.  I host a free class called Stamp with Me Live on the last Monday evening of each month on my FB page here.  Be sure to follow me there.

    I always upload the video on my NEW YouTube Channel afterwards so even if you're not on Facebook you can watch it later.  

    I chose to use the Favored Flowers designer paper – it's a free Sale-a-Bration choice right now; while supplies last.  You can earn it free with any $50 order from Stampin' Up!.  See it here.

    The card starts out as a gate-fold fun fold card.  Easy enough….  I chose to fussy cut a few flowers & leaves from the pretty DSP to add to my greeting element.  The greeting is from the Fitting Florets stamp set. The white stitched circle is from the Stylish Shapes dies.  I also added a few Brushed Brass butterflies; love these!  They're so dainty and nice & flat.  

    Here's the inside view of the explosion insert:

    I added the layered squares on the diagonally at the center of the explosion piece.  Note that this is only adhered on the very outside edge of the inside card.  It sort of floats.  Please watch the video here to see exactly how it's done.  It's quite difficult to explain how this is done in writing.  

    **I created a free project sheet for this card; Download it here

    Below is the template I used for the designer paper explosion layer.  You'll start out with a 4" X 8" piece of designer paper and score vertically at 2", 4" and 6".  Then score on the diagonal 4 times as shown.

    I hope you try making one of these; they're so fun!

  • What a Fun Sketch! Check out #CC 57 made with the pretty Favored Flowers DSP

    We have 2-3 sketch or color challenges each month on our Flowerbug's Team.  I decided to use the Favored Flowers Sale-a-Bration designer paper for my version.   

    Sketch CC Favored Flowers Save

    I also used the Cane Weave 3D embossing folder and Happy Labels stamp set. Both are new in the Jan-June Spring catalog.  

    I love this sketch because it's simple and unique.  A few rectangles and a strip of card stock are your starting point. Then add other elements as needed.  My diagonal strip is going the opposite way but that's okay; sketches are a starting point that you can change as needed. 

    Sketch 38 Save

    My measurements are: 

    • Petal Pink card base 5 1/2" X 8 1/2"
    • DSP 2 3/4" X 4"
    • Calypso Coral  2 1/2" X 4"
    • Evergreen 1" X 5"

    I did fussy cut a flower from the pretty Favored Flowers DSP. See it here.

    Sketches are a wonderful starting point to creating a card.  I highly recommend them.  You can find many on Pinterest; just search card sketches.
