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.

Another pretty card with Winterly Tree Tops; plus video & free project sheet too

October 9, 2024

The Stamp Sale is on and ends today (Wednesday). Get 15% off all Annual Catalog stamp sets! Click here to see all of our stamps.

Today I'm sharing the second card I made on last week's video. I chose to feature the Winterly Tree Tops bundle.

I love this color combination of Balmy Blue with Cherry Cobbler!

In the video I shared how to use our Watercolor Pencils along with our Blender Pens. It's a classic pairing that produces beautiful results with easy shading. Watch the video here or below to see how it's done.

Click on the following link to get the free project sheet for this card: Download Winterly Tree Tops Tag

The little white Snowflakes are from the Holiday catalog; they're called White Loose Snowflakes. Sadly they just ran out of stock but should return in a few weeks. The White textured die-cut is from the Countryside Corners dies seen here.

The Winterly Tree Tops bundle is now back in stock!

Do you see the pretty texture? That's done with the Snowflake Sky embossing folder.

Below is the video I shared on my Facebook page. I host a free class there every Tuesday at 11 am CT. It's also on YouTube as well. Follow me!
