The NEW Butterfly Bouquet bundle is here!!


Stampin' Up! is releasing one of the upcoming Annual Catalog bundles early!  Plus they added on two exclusive papers along with it!  But these papers are only available through May 3rd, while supplies last! Click here to see them online. 

I joined an online swap and created these pretty cards: 

The bundle consists of 1 large butterfly stamp and 12 coordinating dies.  There is a big pack of 6 X 6" Butterfly Bijou Designer Paper and also new Natural Touch specialty paper; 2 sheets of wood grain 12" X 12" paper. Download the Butterfly Bouquet flyer

If you plan to get the Butterfly Bouquet bundle or Designer Paper I have an extra perk for you!  All online orders in March receive a FREE 15 project PDF full of ideas for you!  See details below! 

Which card do you prefer?  Mint Macaron or Calypso Coral?  I sure like the soft papers in this Designer Paper!

Here's the flyer so you can see the details for each of these new products.  It's important to note that the two papers shown are only available from now through May 3rd while supplies last.  You can order tomorrow, March 2nd. 

Look at the photo below; see how this sheet of paper coordinates with the large multiple butterfly die? It might be hard to tell but the die is laying on the paper.  So cool!  

I used three of these butterflies on my cards; the green, blue and yellow!  Such happy spring-like colors!

Measurements are:

  • Card Base 5 1/2" X 8 1/2"
  • Designer Paper 2" X 5 1/2"
  • Natural Touch paper 2" X 4"
  • Black 2 1/4" X 4 1/4", plus 1/4" and 1/3" strips and die-cut butterfly
  • White scrap for Painted Poppies die-cut

On the card below I did color parts of the yellow butterfly with my Calypso Coral Blends marker.

  • Boughs of Holly Suite projects; with a special fun fold you’ll be amazed at!


    I think everyone is loving the Boughs of Holly suite seen here; the paper is stunning and the Leaves of Holly bundle is incredible as well!  

    These are the last swap cards from our Christmas swap with my Flowerbug's Team.  I hope you've enjoyed their amazing & creative projects. *Scroll back to see them all. 

    Marilyn made this pretty card:

    Her colors include Mossy Meadow & Cherry Cobbler with White.  She stamped a few spatters on the designer paper before texturing it with the Gingham embossing folder before adding the die-cut greeting and leaves.  This greeting die-cut with the attached holly leaves is so pretty & unique. 

    Measurements: Card base 5 1/2" X 8 1/2", DSP is 4 1/2" X 3 1/4", the Cherry Cobbler layer is 4 3/4" X 3 1/2" 

    Here's a photo of the entire Boughs of Holly suite:

    Next up is an amazing card by Paula.  She made a vertical Pillar card.  I've never seen one before.  

    The way she attached the mini envelope across the front 'bridge' is so neat.  Here are the directions she shared with me:

    The dimensions are:
    • 8-1/2 x 5-1/2 cardstock in Evening Evergreen
    • On 8-1/2 side score down 1/4, 1, 1-3/4, 2-1/2  6, 6-3/4, 7-1/2 and 8-1/4.
    • Banish all score lines toward the center
    • DSP strips are 5/8" X 5 1/4" and the center DSP is 1 3/4" X 5 1/4", the bridge piece across is 5/8" X 3 3/8"  

    It folds flat to fit in a A2 size envelope.  

    Products used include the Mini Pocket Envelope die, the tag was Tailor Made tags and the Rectangular Postage Stamp punch for the greeting. She also added the Flat Jingle Bells on page 27 of the Holiday catalog and the Wintry 3D embossing folder for the texture on the pocket. 

    The tag pulls out of the pocket for even more interest. 

    So creative and unique!  

    Here is a photo of all of the incredible swap cards by my Team in October. I hope you've enjoyed this weeks posts featuring their cards.

  • 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. 

    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.

  • Merriest Moments & Spruced Up Christmas card ideas


    This week it's all about sharing October's Team swaps with a Christmas theme.  I know you love seeing what they make as much as I do!

    First is a gorgeous card made by Kim with the Merriest Moments stamp set & Merriest Frames Hybrid embossing folder.  These products were a bundle in last year's Holiday catalog, but this year they are offered separately.  

    She used Starry Sky and White card stock with beautiful Silver embossing on the greeting and some of our gorgeous Silver mesh ribbon under the center panel.  

    Did you know you can cut and emboss card stock at the same time with our Hybrid embossing folder & dies?  See them here; it's sooo cool! 

    Absolutely stunning!

    ~~~

    Next up Paula used the same dies and stamp set, plus she added the Christmas Banners bundle to it as well.  

    Her colors are Real Red with Garden Green & White.  

    She turned it into a fun fold too but scoring the front panel one extra time at 2 1/8".  Look closely at the many die-cuts she has here! 

    Next is a beautiful card made by Brenda in blues & white with lots of layers.  

    She used the Spruced Up bundle seen here for the trees with lots more product as well.  

    Details:

    • Twigs & Springs embossing folder for the large White layer (seen in the annual catalog here)
    • She embossed her Vellum card stock with the Wintry 3D embossing folder
    • The DSP is the Storybook Gnomes seen here
    • That iridescent Snowflake is from the Wonderful Snowflakes seen here; all cut & ready for you & a great value!

    Stay tuned for more incredible swap cards by my Team.
