Flowerbug's Inkspot

The Gang's All Meer cute window card

This stamp set was one of the top free choices at my New Catalog Launch party earlier this month.  People are loving it!

I chose to create a window card to highlight these cute critters.  We stamped them in Early Espresso and colored in with Crumb Cake blends markers. 

**Did you know that when stamping an image you plan to color with our Blends markers you can use any color of our Classic ink pads?  They are water based and the markers are alcohol based.  

See the stamp set here.  It's a free choice you receive for any $50 order during our Sale-a-Bration promotion. This lasts through March. 

 

Details:

• Coastal Cabana frame is 4" X 3 1/2" and I used a 2 5/8" square die to cut the window.
• The main card is 5 1/2" X 8 1/2" thick White card stock
• 1 3/8" scalloped circle for the greeting and 1 1/2" circle in Daffodil Delight
• two 1/2" X 4" strips of Birthday Bonanza designer series paper
• The twine bow is from the Metallic Baker's Twine & Sequins combo pack; another FREE Sale-a-Bration choice!

Little Ladybug; get it FREE

Here's the other card we made at my January Flowerbug's Team Meeting featuring the Little Ladybug stamp set: 

I thought the Friendly Silhouettes cat tails/grass die-cut would work well with this set.  See the little ladybugs behind the grass?  I did trim off the 'cattails' so it's just grass here.

Sending Positive Thoughts; love this new stamp set!

This Positive Thoughts stamp set seems to be a 'sleeper' to some people but it caught my eye right away!  Everyone asked where the stamp set was when they saw my cards. 

I knew I could make pretty cards with the images; the leaves, flower and feather are perfect with lots of fine details. But the greetings; they are some I will definitely get a lot of use of. 

This soft, botanical card is one I made for an online swap I participated in.  I used Mint Macaron, Pretty Peacock and of course the pretty Petal Pink. The new champagne rhinestones and Petal Pink/Champagne ribbon was color inspiration. 

I also used the new Stitched So Sweetly dies; my top pick in the entire new catalog!  See them here.

I'll share a second version of this card with you tomorrow.

My colors are Blushing Bride, White and Granny Apple Green.  I used the new Coastal Weave embossing folder from the Mini catalog, the Stitched Nested Label dies too. 

I curled the little petals up with my bone folder and added the Gingham Gala adhesive-backed sequins to the center.
