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:

  • This Season of Elegance fancy fold is extra special and has a gift card option


    I shared this card on last week's FB Live video.  It's also part of my October kit to go and PDF tutorial as well.  It's unique and truly shows off our double sided designer paper!

    Can you see how it opens? The left panel opens up to reveal another flap that also opens. This Cherry Cobbler layer is scored to allow a gift card to be inserted in the pocket.  If you don't need one, just adhere it down or trim it off.  

    I did create a free project sheet for this card; click on the following link to download or print it off. Download Season of Elegance fun fold card with gift card option

  • Stunning Alpine Air cards – now discounted in October!


    When I saw this new kit called Alpine Air I just knew it would be beautiful!

    Alpine air cards

    They're stunning and great for any occasion.  The other thing I like about these is they work for guys too which can be uncommon.  And they're so easy to assemble. It includes everything you need – a greetings stamp set, Misty Moonlight ink spot, adhesives, gems, card layers, envelopes and a clear block. 

    All of the kits in our Kit Collection (28 of them!) are discounted!  Click here to see all 28 kits. 

    This kit was $22 and is now $19.80 and you can see it here.

    These beautiful cards remind me of our trip to the Grand Tetons, Wyoming last month. And also our trip to Norway last year!

  • Sunshiny Happiest Day card with measurements plus more ideas in the video


    I had a blast creating with the Happiest Day stamp set. I shared two more cards in my previous blog posts. 

    Today's project is what I'm calling a 'Sunshiny' card. 

    Happiest day sun

    I chose my color scheme from the Full of Life designer paper I used on the background – Petunia Pop, Balmy blue & Summer Sun.  Of course I added Black for the contrast I like.  

    I thought the Postage Dies were a great way to layer the elements here.  Below is the inside view of this card:

    Happiest Day suns inside

    I added a zig-zag of the Iridescent Striped ribbon under the greeting for the 'glitter' effect. 

    See this adorable Happiest Day stamp set here.

    Here are the measurements; but you can see the other two cards I made on the video here. 

    Measurements:

    • Card base 8 1/2" X 5 1/2" score/fold at 4 1/4"
    • White postage die-cuts 1 1/2" X 2 3/8", large is 3 1/4" X 4 1/2"
    • Black 1 5/8" X 2 1/2", large is 3 3/8" X 4 5/8"
    • DSP – 4" X 5 1/4"

    Check out the video below; I share two more sweet cards for the Happiest Day stamp set.
