Unique Christmas card swaps; they’re not your average cards!


Today I'm sharing the last of our October Flowerbug's Team Christmas card swaps.  These two cards are not your average Christmas cards! 

First is a pretty card made by Marla.  She put together a unique color combination of Pretty Peacock with Moody Mauve and it works! 

She chose two stamp sets for her card; Ringed with Nature and Vertical Blooms. Both are from the 2023-24 Annual Catalog.  The designer paper is the Earthen Elegance, also from the Annual catalog. 

Measurements:

  • Moody Mauve card base 8 1/2" X 5 1/2" score at 2 1/8" and 4 1/4"
  • Moody Mauve inside 6 1/2" X 3 1/4" score at 3 1/4" and 5 3/8"
  • DSP layers 2 pieces at 1 7/8" X 5 1/4", and inside back is 4" x 5 1/4"
  • White layers 3" square, 1 7/8" X 3" and 7/8" X 3"

Sharon made this super cute reindeer card featuring the Sending Cheer dies seen here.

Can you tell that the reindeer are upside down gingerbread men?  Rudolf is a complete die-cut but the Mrs is half.  She added so much detail on them too! 

  • The 'hello' die cut is from the Rustic Crate dies
  • The antlers are from Autumn Leaves dies.
  • Ears are from the monkey punch. 

She used the Joy of Christmas designer paper on the front, cutting it in half with the Border Basics dies.  A great idea!  

The greetings are from the Horse & Sleigh stamp set (online exclusive). 

Below you can see all of the Flowerbug's October swap cards.  Details on each if you go back each day this week.

  • Wow! Check out this fabulous fun fold that’s actually easy! Video & free project sheet too


    I'm super excited to share this neat fancy fold card with you today.  I made it on a recent video which I've added towards the bottom of this post.  

    I chose to use the beautiful Botanical Textures DSP seen here with Petunia Pop, Black & White.

    It starts out with a 11" X 4 1/4" piece of card stock that you score three times.  Then you add a 'bridge or brace' in the center that does the fun pop-up work.  Watch the video to see how it's done. And check out the free project sheet below too.  

    I stamped the greeting with the Linked Together stamp set and the leaves with the Textured Notes stamp set. The greeting die-cuts are from the Stylish Shapes and Spotlight on Nature dies. 

    It folds perfectly flat for mailing too!  

    I hope you'll watch the video below to see how to assemble this neat card. It's super fun to play with.

  • Double Easel fun fold card with video & free project sheet


    I shared this neat fun fold on last week's Live video.  I record them on Facebook Live then upload to YouTube so you can view them either place. 

    My color combination is Summer Splash with Black & White.  The new Botanical Textures DSP inspired this fun fold card. 
    I love how the three butterflies die-cut is placed on 3 Black circles; they would have been lost if placed directly on the DSP. 
    We made this project at last week's Team gathering.  They loved it! 
     
    Products used:
    • Botanical Textures DSP seen here
    • Sketched Butterfly bundle
    • Beautiful Butterflies stamp set
    • Fancy Border dies (seen here) 
    • Label punch

    I created a free project sheet with measurements & directions for you. Click on this link to download or print it.  Download Botanical Butterfly Easel card

    I also included the video below. What do you think of it?  I hope you'll try one!
