Team Card swaps with a Clean & Simple theme

This week I'm sharing our Team card swaps from March.  Our theme was Clean & Simple which can be a challenge for some. We also couldn't use any designer series paper! 

First up is a stunning card made by Deloris.  

March Deloris Save

She masked her White card stock to sponge yellow & blue ink to create a pretty background for the floral stamp.  This flower is from the Spotlight on Nature stamp set.  Her card also has 3 layers of White – the bottom layer is textured.  Gorgeous!

Ginny also used the Spotlight on Nature stamp set on her beautiful card:

March Ginny Save

She used Petunia Pop with Granny Apple green and popped up her flowers on Dimensionals.  Well done!  

Kim is a first time swapper in our group and did a great job on her card: 

March Kim Save

She used the Thoughtful Wishes stamp set and the Exposed Brick 3D embossing folder here.  Her colors include Fresh Freesia and Blackberry Bliss. Sweet & simple!  Good job Kim!

Candy made this adorable card with the Resourceful Rusty stamp set.  

March Candy Save

Her colors include Gray Granite, Real Red, & Balmy Blue.  She trimmed off half of her card front so the circle dies & main image hang over. 

Other products include: New Mini Corrugated embossing folder, New Textured Notes dies, Stylish Shapes and Spotlight on Nature dies. Blends markers for coloring.  Love that tail!  

More swaps will be shared tomorrow!

  • 3 fun fold cards celebrating Strawberry Slush!

    I have THREE neat fun fold cards from our June Team card swap.  My Flowerbug's did an incredible job on their fun fold cards!  

    First up is Sharon's card featuring the Cheers & Sips bundle seen here. 

    June Sharon Cheers & Sips Save

    The top card base layer is scored to creates a box that pops up & supports the front panel. Super neat! 

    She added Fine Tip Glue to her fussy cut drinks for some shine.  To do this you need to let it set awhile to dry. I'd recommend two layers.  If you don't want it to get a bit curvy from the liquid in the glue, add a layer of card stock under it.  

    Her inside greeting is from the Unbounded Love set.  The gems are from the Holographic Resin dots.

    Measurements:

    • Strawberry Slush card base 8 1/4" X 5 1/2" scored at 4 1/4", 5 3/4", 6 1/4", 7 3/4"
    • front CS panel 2 3/4" X 4"
    • DSP 2 pieces at 1 3/8" X 5 3/8", pieces under the greeting are 2 3/4" X 1 1/4", 2 3/4" X 1/4" and inside is 2 3/4" X 1 1/4" 
    • inside White panel 2 3/4" X 4"

    Next is a neat Latch card made by Kathy who used the Sweet Jar bundle seen here.

    Her colors include Cloud Cover and Strawberry Slush. The Designer Paper is from the Florals in Bloom DSP seen here. 

    The front flap opens up to reveal another panel that she stamped with coffee beans and the die-cut from the Paper Pumpkin add on dies (now retired).

    And now for the final card today. This one was made by Paula and was cased from Heidi Colins.  It's called a Buckle card:

    June Paula Floral Impressions Save

    She used the Floral Impressions DSP on the front and cut a window in the front panels so the buckle could slip in.  

    Products used include the Stylish Shapes dies, Swirly EF, In Color flat pearls, and Brass Butterflies.

  • Irresistible Designs emboss resist technique with free project sheet & video

    I shared this card on last week's Live video. I wanted to feature the new Irresistible Designs specialty paper seen here in the new Annual catalog.  It has printed/embossed patterns that are perfect for the emboss resist technique.  

    Irresistable designs this or that Save

    Which color do you prefer? Are you a yellow or a purple person?  

    My colors include Lemon Lolly, Basic Gray, Smoky Slate and Highland Heather. For inks I chose Lemon Lolly, Smoky Slate and Highland Heather. 

    I cut my strips first, then blended the inks on. I textured the center Smoky Slate layer with the Glass & Gardens embossing folders.  The circle die-cut is from the Spotlight on Nature dies.

    I stamped the greeting twice; first on the circle and again on a small piece of card stock.  I fussy cut the 'Celebrate' out and added it with Stampin' Dimensionals.  This was such an easy card!
