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

October 28, 2022

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.

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:

Stay tuned for more incredible swap cards by my Team.

Two Elegant cards by my Team

July 6, 2021

Yesterday I shared two of my Flowerbug's Team swaps here and today I'm sharing two more. They do a fabulous job on their swaps and I love seeing what they create!

First is Tracey's card featuring the Friends are Like Seashells bundle. The fact that the die has a coordinating embossing folder (seen here) makes these products AND projects uniquely special. See it here.

Her colors are Pool Party & Very Vanilla. She embossed both the Vanilla die-cut layer and the Pool party layer to reveal the embossed dots on the background. Love this!

Lori made this next card with the Simply Elegant Specialty Designer paper seen here. She colored the gold paper with Mint Macaron ink with Blending Brushes. That extra pop of gold foil really brings it all together.

Her dies are from the Stitched So Sweetly set seen here. Beautifully elegant!
