Team Swap cards featuring sponging techniques!


Our latest Flowerbug Team swap featured sponging techniques and they knocked it out of the park!  Look at these: 

The first card was made by Deloris. She used the Celebrate Sunflowers bundle.  These items are carrying over to the next catalog but they will no longer be a bundle at 10% off.  You can see it here. 

Her colors are Bermuda Bay, Daffodil Delight and White. I absolutely LOVE the unique colors she used here and isn't her sponging amazing!?  That stitched rectangle of vellum adds the perfect, soft background for the beautiful flower.  

Next is a fabulous card made by Candace using A Good Man stamp set.  

Her colors are Crumb Cake, Night of Navy & Pool Party.  

She sponged the edges of her stamped pieces and rubbed the Crumb Cake ink pad directly on the Painted Textures embossing folder before running it through the Cut & Emboss Machine.  *See that folder here. 

That stitched tag is one of our new dies coming in the 2021 Annual Catalog.  It's called 'Tailor Made Tags'. the greeting is from the Inspired Thoughts stamp set; also new! She colored the image in with Blends markers. 

Stop in again tomorrow for more cards featuring sponging techniques!

  • Two more card kits & tutorial are now available for pre-order!


    I chose the Painted Patch designer series paper for one of my October card kits & tutorials (I have 3 this month!). The colors are incredible together and the patterns are fresh & fun. Look at these Fun Fold cards!

    This card kit includes 5 sets of cards and you’ll make 2 of each one. This kit is all unique fun fold layouts.

    I paired the Painted Patch DSP with the Painted Patch gems and the Calypso Coral & Copper ribbon. You’ll get a share of each of these products along with the 10 pre-cut cards and the PDF tutorial. Everything is pre-cut for you except the package of DSP. You’ll use the directions in the tutorial to cut your new paper. It’s so easy to create these cards when it’s all ready to go.

    I create my kits so you do not need a specific stamp set to finish them. All you need are some greeting images and a few inks.

    This kit can be seen here. It’s $32 plus shipping (order more than one to save $$). There is also a PDF tutorial available for $17. See that here.

    The tutorials are emailed to you immediately after payment. The pre-cut kits are mailed out at the end of October.

    I’ll share the third card kit tomorrow; it’s a Christmas card kit! Here’s a sneak peek:

    You can see it here on my Shop.

  • Quick & easy card layout to make multiples of; with measurements & free project sheet


    I shared multiple cards using this neat layout on last week’s video. I was inspired by a card I received from my friend & team member Judith.

    The designer paper is called Autumn Opulence and can be seen here. This specialty pack includes two pages of coordinating printed die-cuts.

    I think this layout is a great way to use your designer paper. You can get lots from each sheet and make multiple cards quickly.

    The greeting is from the Radiant Sunflowers stamp set.

    I used Pecan Pie, Cajun Craze and Vanilla for my colors. That textured layer is made with the Softly Woven embossing folder seen here.

    I created a free project sheet for this card; it includes measurements, supplies list and directions. Click here to download or print it.

    Below is the video tutorial for this card. I’ll share the other two cards soon.
