TWO Cactus Cutes fun fold cards with video & measurements!

Here are two more Cactus Cuties cards from last Tuesday's FB Live.  Follow me here on Facebook to see each video and more! 

This first card features three of the new In Colors from the brand new Annual Catalog.  They're Sweet Sorbet (red), Parakeet Party (green) and Tahitian Tide (turquoise).  Aren't they vibrant and eye catching!

Check out my In Color bundle here; it's available just through May 7th.  Get free product when you opt in for it like the In Color matte dots seen here.  The Tahitian Tide DSP on this card is part of my In Color bundle too!  

I call this card a Dutch Door card fold.  It's pretty easy to do and makes great use of your card stock too.  Watch how with my quick tip in the video here.

This next card is one we made at my April card clubs here in Minot.  It's called a Split Panel card.  The designer paper is from the recently retired Pattern Party host DSP.  We have a new host DSP called Design a Daydream that is just as great in the annual catalog.  I love these free paper options for hosts!! 

Save

My colors include Granny Apply Green, Bermuda Bay and Mango Melody.  A little bit of Coastal Cabana too.  We used the Cactus Builder punch for the pot, cactus and flowers.  You can see the measurements below.

This style of fun fold card is super easy; I hope you'll try one!

  Today I'm sharing more of our Team swaps from our latest gathering.  

  First up is Tracey's swap featuring the Full of Life designer paper.

  Save

  This pack of paper is filled with bold patterns and bright colors; see it here.  She layered 3 pieces of designer paper with Berry Burst card stock. The greeting is heat embossed on the back side of one of these patterns.

  The butterflies are from the Paper Butterfly Accents seen here. They are available in the online store now.

  Save

  
  

  Her fresh color combination is Lemon Lolly with Soft Sea Foam. She added this pretty soft yellow ink to the daisy centers and layered the dies so nicely they look super realistic!  The embossing folder is the Exposed Brick 3D which is currently out of stock; but it will be back!

• Fabulous Team Swaps!

  May 22, 2024

  We held our monthly Flowerbug's Team Meeting on Saturday and I wanted to share the card swaps they made. 

  First is a beautiful card made by Candy who featured the new Loveliest Tree stamp set seen here.  

  Save

  Her colors include Mossy Meadow, Blackberry Bliss and Cajun Craze.  Gorgeous!!  The embossing folder is the Eyelet 3D folder seen here.

  Save

  There are dies that go with it too. I believe she colored the tree in with Blends markers. She also used Wink of Stella on the tree image – it shows up very well in person but not as much in person.

  Next is a neat fun fold card made by Jacki. She chose the Trusty Tools stamp set & dies.  

  Save

  See the stamp set here and the dies here.  They were a bundle in the Spring catalog and carried over into the new Annual Catalog. 

  The designer paper is the Countryside Inn DSP seen here that carried over and is now online.
