Country Bouquet Bonus Cards
All week long I have been playing and stamping with the Country Bouquet Bundle! My Card Class From ME featured 3 great cards, and each one was showcased in its own post. If you missed them, check out one here.
But along with the cards that made up my to-go from Maine kits, I also created bonus cards.What are bonus cards? Just additional ideas to inspire you to fall in love with the Country Bouquet Bundle!
I Love That We Are Friends
My first bonus card fell heavy on the purple side…a good color for a friend card. (I have a lot of friends who just love purple!) This card features the Split Card Textures Dies from the 2022-2023 Annual Catalog. It was my first die cutting with the set, and it will not be my last!
I also chose to showcase some purple toned designer series paper on this card. In fact, it it FREE paper, The Favored Flowers 12 x 12″ DSP, a Sale-A-Bration pick when you spend $50 before tax and shipping. This gorgeous paper was also used in my next card….
With Love Purple Flower Card
If this card looks slightly familiar, you may notice that it is identical in design to one of my original Card Class From ME cards. I love to attempt a color swap! You can see the first version (done in Evening Evergreen and gold embossing) by clicking here.
For both of my With Love cards, I did some heat embossing and used my favorite stamp from the Country Bouquet Stamp Set, the open heart outline. And of course, the beautiful designer series paper comes from the Favored Flowers FREE pack, only available with a qualifying order during Sale-A-Bration (ask me for more details!).
Rainbow of Hearts Slimline Card
Not going to lie, this card is my favorite of all the cards I have made to date with the Country Bouquet Bundle. This one was very easy to make, too! I did a lot of punching with the Country Bouquet Punch, some cardstock and dsp.
What really elevates this gorgeous card is the stark white background topped with hearts that have been deepened with like color ink on the outer edges. I used Sponge Daubers and coordinating ink to create this fantastic look.
Polished Pink For You Card
My last bonus Country Bouquet card is extremely simple to make. Simple rectangle layers provide a backdrop for punched pieces. This designer series paper is from the 2021-2023 6 x 6″ Collection (currently on clearance!!).
The Decorative Circle Punch is quickly becoming my favorite go-to punch on cards. And after I did a quick how-to video explaining tips on using the Country Bouquet Punch, I had the hearts and flowers to use on my card. Check out my video here.
Still Time To Get My Cardmaker Collective Club Kits
