What a Fun Sketch! Check out #CC 57 made with the pretty Favored Flowers DSP


We have 2-3 sketch or color challenges each month on our Flowerbug's Team.  I decided to use the Favored Flowers Sale-a-Bration designer paper for my version.   

I also used the Cane Weave 3D embossing folder and Happy Labels stamp set. Both are new in the Jan-June Spring catalog.  

I love this sketch because it's simple and unique.  A few rectangles and a strip of card stock are your starting point. Then add other elements as needed.  My diagonal strip is going the opposite way but that's okay; sketches are a starting point that you can change as needed. 


My measurements are: 

  • Petal Pink card base 5 1/2" X 8 1/2"
  • DSP 2 3/4" X 4"
  • Calypso Coral  2 1/2" X 4"
  • Evergreen 1" X 5"

I did fussy cut a flower from the pretty Favored Flowers DSP. See it here. 

This designer paper is free with any $50 purchase during our SAB (Sale-a-Bration) promotion through February 28th.  But remember that it's while supplies last!  

Sketches are a wonderful starting point to creating a card.  I highly recommend them.  You can find many on Pinterest; just search card sketches.

  • How to make the embossing folder the star of your card; with video!


    I shared a few ways to highlight the texture on your 3D embossing folders on last week’s video. I shared the cards I created with the 5 new In Colors and how it’s done.

    This is the Floral Spray 3D embossing folder seen here. It’s currently out of stock unfortunately. Please put your name on the list to be notified when it’s back.

    Steps: I textured the CS first. Then rubbed my Craft White ink pad over it lightly. It catches on all the pretty raised areas, highlighting them beautifully. This can take some practice and I recommend you ink pad not be fully inked.

    I wrapped matching In Color ribbons across the cards and added a greeting. So simple but stunning in person.

    The greeting die-cuts are from the Scalloped Blooms dies seen here. The greetings are from the Opulent Oasis & Balloon Festoon stamp sets.

    Of course this technique; I’m calling it ‘white-washing’ shows up best on darker card stock. Here’s one I did with the Fern & Flora embossing folder seen here:

    This is our new Peaceful Pine in color. The greeting tag is from the new Classic Labels Mix & Match ephemera seen here. Love these pretty White labels!

    Below is the video tutorial with tips for success on this technique.

  • Beautiful Scenic Coast swap card


    Look at this beautiful Scenic Coast swap card made by Darla. Our Team swap theme was to use new product from the 2026 May-August catalog.

    She used multiple new products here. First is the Scenic Coast DSP seen here and the Sunset Coast bundle here for the main image. I love how she added yellow to the lighthouse and green to the hills. They are small itty pieces inserted in the die-cut windows. Wow!

    The background is Crisp Cantaloupe textured with the So Swirly embossing folder. The White ‘Thank You’ die-cuts are from the Words & Wishes dies seen here.

    Just plain stunning! And she is a very new swapper on my Team too! You did a wonderful job Darla!

    Thanks for stopping in today!

  • Cutest Crew Club card; quick & cute! Free project sheet too


    This is one of the cards we made at my April card clubs; it features the Cutest Crew bundle.

    The Cutest Crew bundle (seen here) has been so popular they cannot keep it in stock! The dies were available last week but now they’re gone again. They should be back the week of May 18th though. Be sure to add your email to the product page so you get a notification as to when they’re available.

    My colors are Coastal Cabana with White, Pecan Pie & Crumb Cake. I used the Hobby Haven and Wood Grain Wonders designer papers on my card. Here’s the cat version:

    I colored the critters in with Blends markers; stamping the images with Black Memento ink. The stitched die is from the Nested Essential dies seen here; one of my favorites.

    I stamped the paw prints image repeatedly in the inside and added one of the pet die-cuts.

    Which is your favorite?

    I shared a video last week on Facebook and it’s now uploaded to my YouTube Channel. Plus you can access the free project sheet here.
