Turtle & Friends Fun Fold swaps


Today I have a few special fun fold cards made with the Turtle & Friends bundle seen here.  They were for a Flowerbug's Team swap we held last month with an 'Animal Fun Fold' theme. 

The first card was made by Paula. Her cute card is called a Double Dutch Door fold. 

I love the rounded corners on her front layer and the sweet background made with images from the Happy Hedgehogs stamp set.  She sponged the sky & grass too.  

Measurements:

  • Evening Evergreen card base 4 1/4" X 8 1/2" tall scored at 5 1/2", and the lower doors piece is 8 1/2" X 3" wide scored at 2 1/8" & 6 3/8" 
  • White upper stamped layer is 4" X 2 3/4"
  • Lower DSP (Pattern Party host) layer is 1 3/4" X 2 3/4
  • Granny Apple Green inside is 4" X 5 1/4" 

To put this card together you add the scored horizontal piece to the vertical card base and add the inside layer over it. 

Next is a fun fancy fold card made by Marla.  I'd forgotten about this unique card fold!  It looks like a normal card at first glance. 

But when you lift the front it reveals this!

She used the Expressions in Ink specialty DSP in the annual catalog for her card front.  She also used the Hammered Metal 3D embossing folder for the Garden Green strip. 

Measurements:

  • Garden Green 2 pieces at 4 1/4" X 5 1/2" plus a 1 1/2" X 4" piece for the embossed strip
  • Whisper White inside is 3 3/4" X 11" scored at 1" & 6" 
  • Expressions in Ink DSP 4" X 5 1/4" 

It's so fun to see what my Flowerbug's Team members create; we each have our own style and I love that!

  • 3 completely different cards with the Friendly Hello bundle; WOW!


    Our Sale-a-Bration promotion is everyone's favorite time of year; who doesn't love to get something free?!  

    This year our product line includes a stamp set & 12 X 12" designer paper combo called Friendly Hello.  I love both the stamps and the DSP.  The stamps include floral, botanical and greeting images and the paper can be either soft & pretty or bright & eye catching! 

    Look at these three extremely different cards all featuring the same stamps & DSP:

    This card is one I made for an online swap I participated in.  I chose to use the Granny Apple Green sheet of DSP and paired it with Black & White. It's a simple layout that really shows off the colors & products.

    Details:

    • The greeting is stamped onto a die-cut from the Hippo & Friends die. 
    • That delicate leaf die-cut is from the Tropical Layers dies in the Jan-June catalog.  
    • The butterfly is from the Catching Butterflies Sale-a-Bration stamp set. 

    Next is a pretty swap Ginny made but so much softer in colors.  

    She covered the entire card front with her Designer Paper and added a banner from another sheet of the DSP under the main White scalloped piece.  She stamped in Gray Granite and colored in the bird & flowers with Blends markers.  

    Lastly today is another card I made for a swap.  I paired the Pool Party sheet of this Designer Paper with Early Espresso.  I've always loved these colors together.  I stamped the flowers in Early Espresso ink onto our Vellum card stock and immediately heat embossed with clear embossing powder.  Yes you CAN emboss with our Classic ink pads!  

    I textured the Pool Party card stock with the new Gingham embossing folder and rounded the upper right corner.  I also cut our new frayed 3/4" White ribbon in half lengthwise and wrapped it round the left edge of the card stock.  

    Thanks so much for stopping in to see my projects today!  If you want to get this pretty pack of Designer Paper & the Friendly Hello stamp set click here to see it.  It's free with any $100 purchase right now!

  • Pretty Botanical swap cards; all Monochromatic!


    This week I'm showcasing my talented Flowerbug's Team swaps with their monochromatic cards.  

    First up is Karen's card; she used the Amazing Silhouettes stamp set; seen here in the new Jan-June catalog.  

    She stamped the floral image three times on her White CS using Evening Evergreen ink.  The last one is stamped on Vellum and fussy cut.  She added a double tag die-cut from the Tailored Tags dies along with a bow in Soft Succulent ribbon.  

    Next is a pretty card in Fresh Freesia made by Paula S.  She used a favorite stamp set of mine; the Queen Anne's Lace stamp set, along with some sponging and distressing of the edges.  

    Our In Color sheer ribbon is wonderful; easy to work with, soft & lovely!  

    Next is a pretty & very detailed card made by Sharon.  She used Soft Succulent with Evening Evergreen and the Ever Eden specialty designer paper. 

    She created double stitched window frames with the Stitched Rectangle dies. They're adhered over a scalloped rectangle made with the Stitched So Sweetly dies.  Her leaves are die-cut from our Shimmer In Color Vellum using the Forever Flourishing dies.  The greeting is from the Prized Peony stamp set. 

    Stop in for more Monochromatic card swaps tomorrow!
