Our Biker Chicks have been busy with our Swoon collection and for the rest of the month on Wednesdays and Thursdays we will have project ideas from our talented team. Today Biker Chicks Shanna Vineyard, Jenny Chesnick and Heather Leopard have some amazing card ideas to share...
I Do Gift Card Pocket Card by Biker Chick Shanna Vineyard
Swoon Supplies:
6x6 paper pad
Chipboard Shapes
Fabric Favorites
Stick Pins
This is a fun way to give a gift card or money to a newly married couple on their special day!
Create a pocket on the front of your card then machine stitch around the edges to keep it secure.
Add your favorite Swoon embellies, a personalized message inside and you're ready to make some newlyweds smile!
Mr. & Mrs. card by Biker Chick Shanna Vineyard
Swoon Supplies:
6x6 paper pad
Chipboard Shapes
Decorative Edge Cardstock
Dimensional Stickers
Pearl & Jewel Stickers
When using the Decorative Edge Cardstock products the possibilities are endless. I trimmed this one down to fit the spacing I needed for this card. Then layered up some other awesome Swoon goodies to complete this simple but effective greeting.
Wedding Card by Biker Chick Jenny Chesnick
For wedding cards I prefer to use a larger size card. So for this card I cut my paper at 5x10 and scored the ends at 2.5" to create the tri-fold. I used 3D foam squares to attach my sentiment to one side leaving room for the twine to hold the card together
Swoon Supplies:
SW-106 Wedding March/Elopement
SW-133 6" x 6" Decorative Edge Double-sided Textured Cardstock - with foil accents (5 pieces)
SW-134 Journaling Cards - with thermography (10 pieces)
SW-195 Dimensional Stickers (9 pieces)
2 Families Unite Card by Biker Chick Heather Leopard
To make this card I punched strips of paper about ¾” wide by 4 ¼” long. Starting at the bottom of the car, I layered each strip over the other to make an elegant lacey effect. I layered ribbon and a sentiment to keep the rest of the card simple.
6x6 Paper Pad
Dimensional Stickers
Misc Ribbon
Martha Stewart Scallop Punch
My Heart Belongs to You Card by Biker Chick Heather Leopard
I just love the gold and pearl-like pins and I wanted to make them a dominant part of my card. I kept looking at them thinking about how love can really blossom and grow, like flowers. The paper I used reminded me of a garden trellis so I actually kept the pins in the foam packaging so they would give a popped up effect and positioned them to look like flowers growing in the garden. I chose the sentiment, which includes the same trellis-like details and I think this card would be fitting for a wedding or an anniversary.
Swoon Supplies:
6x6 Paper Pad
Cardstock Stickers
Stick Pins and the foam packaging
May Arts Ribbon
Pop Dots
Check back tomorrow for a Swoon project from Biker Chick Robbie Herring.
Have a wonderful day!

I have to have those stickpins! What a clever idea. And, I love the lace layering effect.
