Three more background ideas on these Team swap cards

July 14, 2023

Our Flowerbug's Team card swap theme was to create our own backgrounds. I shared three cards yesterday and here are three more:

Yellow is the underlying color on each of these swaps which is a perfect color for summertime. First is a pretty card in a blue & yellow combo by Candy.

She stamped the Timeless Tile background stamp and then textured it with an embossing folder. She also used the Bottled Happiness stamp set. Her colors include Misty Moonlight & Daffodil Delight. Such a beautiful card!

~~~

Next is a card made by Jacki with the Hello Ladybug stamp set & Ladybug Builder punch.

Save

She stamped her background with the daisy image in the stamp set, heat embossing it with White embossing powder. It sure pops on the Black card stock! She added Daffodil Delight & White card stock for a poppin' color combo.

I LOVE her bumble bee! She used the punch for the body (adding Daffodil Delight strips to the Black body) and the wings are punched from Window Sheets. So clever and fun.

Next is another pretty card made by Paula. She featured the Petal Park, Two-Tone Flora and Timeless Arrangements stamp sets.

Save

Her colors include Daffodil Delight, Black, White & Old Olive, stamped off. She added a few Brass Butterflies and our Black & White gingham ribbon.

I'll share the rest of our swaps next week. Have a great weekend!

Here's a card I made for an online swap featuring the new Love of Leaves bundle seen here.

Save

I got the idea from a card in the catalog but changed it up quite a bit. I added a piece of the beautiful Gilded Autumn Specialty designer paper behind the die-cut leaf. Can you see the stitching around the stitched Rectangle window? These Stitched Leaves dies stitch on the outside and on the leaf itself! They're amazing!

The colors here are Mint Macaron, Soft Suede & Cajun Craze. I'll post the card I made with the die-cut leaf itself soon.
