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:

  • Another Positive thoughts card; in a unique color combination


    I have no idea where I came up with this color combination.  I started out with the Petal Pink because I wanted to use the gorgeous champagne edged ribbon.  Maybe I was avoiding green; but the Basic Gray looks beautiful with the Petal Pink!  

    Positive thoughts gray & pink

    The Positive Thoughts stamp set is so easy to play with; the images are soft yet detailed which is totally my style. That embossing folder is called 'Coastal Weave'.  It's a free gift to everyone who places an online order over $65 this month (detailed below). 

    AND, they are coming out with dies to coordinate with this stamp set in February!  I'm so excited about them.  It includes 11 dies for each of the images in the set plus more!  A stitched rectangle, a detailed edgelit and more botanical images.  You'll love them!  They will be for purchase; they're not part of Sale-a-Bration.

    Besides the pretty images the greetings put me over the edge to buy it.  I know I'll use them a lot.

  • Stitched So Sweetly & Positive Thoughts


    Yesterday I shared one version of this card and here is the other.  I had extra background pieces stamped so I tried something else.

    Positive Thoughts.1

    I used the same dies; but added the So Sentimental stamp set for the greeting above.  

    And here is the first version:  Which do you prefer?  This (above) or that (below)?

  • Sending Positive Thoughts; love this new stamp set!


    This Positive Thoughts stamp set seems to be a 'sleeper' to some people but it caught my eye right away!  Everyone asked where the stamp set was when they saw my cards. 

    I knew I could make pretty cards with the images; the leaves, flower and feather are perfect with lots of fine details. But the greetings; they are some I will definitely get a lot of use of. 

    Positive Thoughts swap

    This soft, botanical card is one I made for an online swap I participated in.  I used Mint Macaron, Pretty Peacock and of course the pretty Petal Pink. The new champagne rhinestones and Petal Pink/Champagne ribbon was color inspiration. 

    I also used the new Stitched So Sweetly dies; my top pick in the entire new catalog!  See them here.

    I'll share a second version of this card with you tomorrow.
