Wonderful leaves, trees & lighthouse card ideas


Today's post features the third post of my talented Flowerbug's Team swap cards.  I've been featuring them all week!  Our theme was to make a card with trees, leaves or water.  It was a fun theme and the cards were gorgeous and unique!

The first card here is made by Jacki.  She chose to use the Paradise Palms bundle from the 2022 Jan-June catalog.  

She textured her White layer with the Painted Texture embossing folder and added a 2" strip of the Abstract Beauty specialty DSP across the middle.  It looks like sparkly water!

Next is a card made by Brenda using the Artfully Layered bundle seen here.  I LOVE her unusual color combo of Pool Party, Basic Gray & Petal Pink! 

 

There are so many wonderful textures & details here!  Look closely to find them all; this bundle includes some special dies in it. 

~~~

Jonna made this lighthouse card with the Sailing Home stamp set.  Unfortunately this stamp set was on the retiring list and is already sold out.  

Her colors are Night of Navy, Crumb Cake & White.  She used the Stitched Rectangle dies to create a window; popping up the 'frame' with Dimensionals.  I love how she wrapped the linen thread around the greeting.  

Stop in for the last set of amazing swap cards tomorrow!

  • More Team card swaps


    Today I’m sharing the other card swaps my Team members made featuring Online Exclusive products.

    First is Karen’s card made with the Homemade Sweetness suite seen here.

    It’s a book-binding fold where the left side is adhered together and just the right part opens.

    Check out the embossed layers with the Ladybug Picnic embossing folder. It’s so neat! Unfortunately it’s out of stock right now; but it will be back. If you want it be sure to add your email to the product to be informed when it’s back.

    Next is Candy’s card made with the Cutest Crew stamp set seen here. She wanted to use the dies but they were out of stock. They came back for two days and are now out of stock again! Popular set!

    Her colors are stunning! Bubble Bath with Smoky Slate and White. She stamped the kittens on the Nested Essentials die-cut and colored them in with Smoky Slate & Bubble Bath Blends markers. The embossing folder is the Hearts of Love embossing folder.

    ~~~

    Here’s Joan’s card featuring the Splash of Sparkles specialty designer paper.

    She layered 3 different pieces of this foiled paper with Pretty in Pink before adding her greeting layer on top. Neat layout!

    ~~~

    Lastly is Jess’s card featuring the Lovely Stripes embossing folder seen here.

    The vertical strips of DSP are from the Made with Love. I like how she alternated the DSP strips with the card stock strips. This is the first swap she joined; she did a great job!

    Her greeting is from the Cutest Crew stamp set.

    That’s it for our March swaps. I hope you are inspired by their creations!

  • Check out these Team Swaps!


    The swap theme for my Flowerbug’s in March was to use our favorite Online Exclusive product. I’ll be sharing them today and Wednesday this week.

    First is a pretty card made by Jacki featuring the Sunflower 3D embossing folder seen here. It’s currently in low inventory; they sure have trouble keeping these in stock!

    She used White with Crumb Cake for a super clean look. The die-cut shape on the textured Sunflower layer is from the Branching Out dies seen here. One of my absolute favorite sets of dies I consider a ‘must have!’

    I also love how she added the wrap of Linen Thread around the greeting layer; simple but so effective!

    ~~~

    Her sister Jonna made this next card. Did they decide to both use the Sunflower 3D folder?!

    Her card is all Vanilla. Another clean & simple card; both are so elegant! I find when you use mostly one neutral color the card feels quite sophisticated. The greetings on both cards are from the recently retired Branching Out stamp set.

    Next is a pretty card from Kim.

    She used the pretty Floral Charm designer paper here with Early Espresso, Bubble Bath & Pecan Pie card stock. This pretty DSP will be on the retiring list in the next week or so. The beautiful leaf die-cut is from the Nature’s Symphony dies seen here. They are out of stock currently but they’ll be back! The greeting punch is our Heartfelt Hexagon punch seen here. I love this punch!

    Tomorrow I’ll share lots more of the fabulous swap cards made by my Team.

  • Springtime Scenes card with video & free project sheet


    I shared this card last week with a video and a free project sheet. Think of using any designer paper you own. It’s a great layout!

    I chose the Easter Joy Specialty paper inspired me with the color theme. Shy Shamrock with Balmy Blue & White. Unusual but it sure works!

    It’s a simple ‘fold back’ fun fold where you add one extra score line at 2 3/4″ to this 11″ X 4 1/4″ card base. Of course it’s scored in half at 5 1/2″ as well. I cut the Balmy Blue layer to perfectly layer onto the inside White. It gives the illusion of multiple layers.

    That pretty die-cut leaf is from the Pleasant Patterns specialty paper seen here. For my stamps & the leaf die I used the Springtime Scenes bundle seen here. I love this set with the neat dies and stamps.

    Here’s the free project sheet for this card. Click here to print or download it.
