Flowerbug's Inkspot

Look at the wide variety of kits! And they're all discounted in October!

I love when they discount our kits because they're fabulous and always a great deal. But now they're even more tempting! 

Like I mentioned in yesterday's post they are wonderful for quick crafting, gifts and perfect for gathering to create with friends.  No prep or planning ahead!

I am going to highlight a few of my favorites and also add them with links below. 

~~~

First is our newest kit called 'Alpine Air'.  It's now $19.20. See it here.

This kit has all the pieces you need to create nine all-occasion cards with an elegant mountain theme. Whether you want to say hello, wish a happy birthday, or show support, you can pair each sentiment with the water-colored mountain scenes and precut paper pieces to make cards for any adventurer or nature-loving friend.

Another favorite is the Card Keeper Box. It's $22.50. See it here. 

This kit comes with everything you need to make 10 beautiful all-occasion cards. With a variety of sentiments, you can create an assortment of cards fit for birthdays, saying thanks, and more. And don’t miss the coordinating card container! This cute storage option is the perfect solution for keeping these all-occasion cards organized and ready to go.

Next is the Painted Floral cards kit.  Just $12.60! See it here.

More New Catalog Product displays

A few week's ago I held my Holiday Catalog open house and I shared a few of the displays earlier. Today I'll share the rest for you. 

 

The Season of Elegance suite includes two bundles, the designer paper, an embossing folder, gems and ribbon.  See it all here. 

The Season of Elegance specialty designer paper was a top seller at the event.  It's stunning! See it here online.

I created a display for the Christmas Label dies that coordinates with the bundle seen here.  I love these so much!  The dies aren't just for the Holidays! 

And here are the Peaceful Season dies at are part of the bundle seen here: 

Next are the Reindeer Days & Sentimental Christmas displays: 

Most of these are swaps I received; only the two on the right lower edge are mine.  I love swapping - especially to get samples of products I didn't buy and to show styles that are different from mine. 

Here's a close up of the last display board - Snowy Scenes Suite, Humble Home bundle & Take a Bow DSP:

See all of the new Holiday catalog products here. There's lots of new & exciting stuff!

Holiday Catalog Launch Party with lots of new product displays

My new Holiday Catalog open house event went wonderfully on Wednesday; it was a big smash with lots of people attending.  I was ready with fabulous displays and yummy food.  Of course I forgot to take photos of the food but I did remember to grab some of the displays. 

First is the Splendid Autumn display: 

I also included swaps from the Caring Leaves stamp set in the upper left. 

I made samples of some of the die-cuts I have to help showcase how they can be used.  

Next is my Regal Winter display: 

I shared a few of these cards on last week's Live video which you can here and another one here.

Next is the Nest of Winter suite which is filled with wood grains, birds and nature. 

I shared some of these cards in this video seen here. 

I created a sample for the dies in this suite too.  I should have colored them in but I didn't take the time. 

I'll share more soon!

Incredible Seagull fun fold card with measurements!

Lori made this adorable card for our August card swap.  

It looks like a normal card front doesn't it. But wait!  It opens up like this:

Isn't that neat?  The side flaps sneak under the front panel. 

She chose the use the Lily Pond Lane designer paper for her card.  It's actually on sale right now - but the sale on our Designer Papers end tomorrow!  See all of the papers on sale here. 

She added a white layer in the back for signing. It needed to be able to fold for the card to work so there's a crease in the center. 

She used the Charming Duck Pond stamp set for her images & greetings. It's part of the Lily Pond Lane suite. 

Measurements:

• Card base - 2 pieces at 4 1/4" X 8 1/4" score at 2 1/4", 4" and 6 1/4" - the widest flap is on the left and right sice when the 2 pieces are sitting next to each other. 
• 4 1/4" X 4 1/4" front. Glue onto the middle of the folded pieces to hold them together. 
• White - 4" square for back of card
• DSP 4 X 4" front, 2 at 1 1/2" X 4" inner panels & 2 at 2" X 4" outer panels 

Thank you for the measurements Lori!  Here's an view of this neat card from above. 

I hope to make one of these cards on a video soon.
