Country Wreaths & Christmas Barn card ideas by the Flowerbug’s


This week I've been proud to share my Team Christmas card swaps from our October swap event.  I am thrilled with the quality of our swaps each and every month!  

Today's projects feature some pretty bundles in the 2022 Holiday catalog by Stampin' Up!  First is a fabulous card by Candy with the Cottage Wreaths bundle. 

Oct Candy Country Wreath

Her colors include Cherry Cobbler, Old Olive, White & Crumb Cake. 

Details:

  • It's an easy fun fold card; she trimmed off 1" on the right side of her card front to reveal the Lights Aglow DSP on the inside edge.  
  • She textured the Crumb Cake layer with the Timber 3D embossing folder. 
  • Silver 3/8" edge ribbon and Festive Pearls are the embellishments

Next is a book binding fun fold card by Mary; she also featured the Country Wreaths bundle.

A book binding card is made by adding an extra score line to your 4 1/4" X 11" card.  Score at 4 1/4" and 5 1/2". 

The DSP layers are 3/4" X 3 7/8" and 3 7/8" square.  Red layers are 7/8" X 4" and 4" square. 

She used the Gingham Cottage DSP on her card front and Real Red & Garden Green card stock.

Lastly today is a beautiful scene made by Roxann with the Christmas Barn bundle seen here.

Her colors include Cherry Cobbler, White & Mossy Meadow.  She used Blends markers to color the images and our new Very Best Trio tag punch on the corners.  

Here's her inside view:

  • Do you ever make cards made from leftover pieces?

    I had a bunch of fussy cut coffee cups leftover from a previous project plus a stack of A Little Latte designer paper layers too.  Here are some of the cards I made with them.

    Aren't they great?  You'd never know I made these with leftover pieces! It's a fun challenge to put random layers together in a pleasing way. I really enjoyed making these as thank you's for my online orders. 

    Here's a photo of the cute A Little Latte designer paper. There are two sheets of coffee cups you can fussy cut.  Or get the Latte Love bundle that has dies to match. 

    A LITTLE LATTE 12" X 12" (30.5 X 30.5 CM) DESIGNER SERIES PAPER 

     I knew I needed a neutral base to add the layers to so I started out with a textured White layer added to my card bases. I chose the So Swirly embossing folder seen here. After adding the DSP pieces & coffee cups I finished the cards with greetings and a twine bow.

    I keep a small bag of White die-cut greeting pieces on my desk so I grabbed some of those for my greetings.  Done! 

    I think they turned out great.  Do you ever grab your leftovers to create with?

    Today's card is the second one I shared during last week's Live video.  I chose to feature the Labeled with Love bundle.

    There's just something classy about a mostly white card. To me it seems like there's more focus on the main element – in this card a pretty butterfly tag. And the texture is a quiet backdrop. 

    Here are some of the products I used:

    Is this your style of card?  Or is it a bit too clean & simple?
