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:

  • Easy Treat Bag with video & free project sheet!

    If you ever need a fast & easy way to gift treats or a small gift I recommend this quick treat bag. I shared how to make it in a recent video and you can scroll down to get the free project sheet. 

    Easy treat boo bag

    It's made from a piece of designer paper that's 8 1/2" wide X 6" tall.  The bag is 4 3/4" tall and about 4" wide at the top.  A nice size!

    The 'Boo' bag is made from the Them Bones designer paper and the tag is also from the paper.  It's part of a full sheet of individual panels you can use for cards etc.  

    I made the Boo bag before the video and the Christmas bag during the video. See this video here.

    Below is a photo of it open.  I added about 6 small candy bars inside and there was room for more yet! The layered greeting tag holds the bag closed with a mini clip.

    I punched two holes in the top of the bag to thread the Silver & White ribbon through for a tied bow. This ribbon is a new favorite; it's sparkly and thin so it's easy to work with. Unfortunately it's out of stock until mid November.

  • Trucking Along window fun fold card with video & free project sheet!

    Today I'm sharing one of my October card club projects; it features the Trucking Along punch bundle.  See it here; it's now back in stock!! 

    Oct Club Trucking Along

    I used an easy technique on the window and tire rims. See how they're a soft white?  Using our White Craft ink pad, I grabbed a bit of White ink with a blender pen and colored these areas. You can add more color if you'd like it whiter, but I like the almost opaque look.  

    Note one card has presents and the other a tree in the truck bed.  These are stamped on a separate piece of White paper and fussy cut before adding to the truck.

    I created two options for my Club members; a birthday or a Christmas card. This Truck bundle has a wide variety of stamps & greetings.  I did use the Happy Birthday image from the Enjoy the Rhythm set and the inside Christmas greeting from the Brightest Glow stamp set.
