2 more fun fold card ideas for you; from the Flowerbugs!

Happy Thanksgiving!!  I hope you enjoy a wonderful holiday weekend and spend it with friends or maybe stamping!

We'll be with our kids in Fargo and besides enjoying our turkey dinner we'll be playing games, going to an escape room and I'll be addressing some Christmas cards too.

Here are more of our Flowerbug's Team swaps featuring fancy folds.  

Candy made this 'book binding' card with the Kindest Gnomes; see it here.  

Save

Measurements are: 

• Cherry Cobbler card base 4 1/4" X 11" scored at 4 1/4" & 5 1/2"
• DSP 1" X 4" on the 'binding', 1/2" X 4" strip across
• Evergreen layer 4" square

Roxann made this amazing Diamond Fold card.  She used the Splendid Day specialty designer paper from the 2022 Holiday Catalog; seen here. 

Save

Her colors include Petal Pink &Soft Sea Foam. It's finished size is 5" square so it does not fit into a standard A2 size envelope.  

Measurements:

• Card base 5" X 10".  Score at 2 1/2" & 5".  You'll find the upper center at 2 1/2" and make a mark.  From the top, cut down on both sides to the first score line, removing those upper corners. 
• Then make a mark from the bottom up on each side at the 7 1/2" mark.  Cut from the bottom center; also at 2 1/2", and cut to the 7 1/2" mark, removing the bottom outer corners. 
• Soft Sea Foam squares are 3 1/4"
• Designer paper squares are 3"

Maybe someday I'll create one of these and share how it's done. It's a neat card!

I sure have some talented Team Members, don't I?  They always impress me with their creativity, colors and ingenuity.

• Awesome Dance with Me fun fold card

  January 22, 2025

  ---

  Look at this gorgeous fun fold card Karen made for our Sale-a-Bration Team swap this month!

  Save

  She used the Dance with Me stamp set and the Floral Delight designer paper.  I love the spotlight technique she did too!  You can see an example of it in the SAB catalog here.  This neat spotlight technique is done with masking paper and a blending brush. It's so easy! 

  This set is free through February with any $60 purchase.

  Her colors include Pool Party, White & Daffodil Delight.  She used the Stylish Shapes dies to create her window fun fold effect.  The greeting is from the Day to Celebrate stamp set; also from Sale-a-Bration.

  Save

  I plan to create this fun fold next month but in the meantime here are her measurements:

  • Card base 8 1/2" X 5 1/2" score at 4 1/4"
  • White inside 8" X 5 " scored at 2", 3 1/2" & 5 1/2"
  • DSP front is 4" X 5 1/4", inside 1 1/4" X 4 3/4"
  • large circle die-cut is 3", white for the dancing couple is 2 1/2"

  Save

  I love this card!  Thanks for doing an awesome job Karen!

• Opt in for my Card stock shares

  January 21, 2025

  ---

  I have cardstock share's happening this month. We used to have these in the mini catalogs but they stopped offering them so I now offer them to my customers on occasion.  

  Save

  Here's how it works.  Instead of getting 24 sheets of 1 color in a package (like the catalog offers), I provide 6 sheets each of 4 different colors. It's a great way to get a nice sampling of our card stock.

  These colors coordinate with the new Designer Papers in the Spring catalog. 

  1. Wildflower Birthday – 6 sheets each of Pretty in Pink, Peach Pie, Pool Party & Soft Sea Foam

  2. Floral Delight – 6 sheets each of Daffodil Delight, Pecan Pie, Lemon Lolly & Old Olive

  3. Beautiful Bokeh – 6 sheets each of Berry Burst, Fresh Freesia, Balmy Blue & Calypso Coral

  4. Friends of the Ocean – 6 sheets each of Pumpkin Pie, Summer Splash, Melon Mambo & Lemon Lime Twist

  5. Storybook Moments – 6 sheets each of Mossy Meadow, Boho Blue, Basic Beige & Pebbled Path

  6. Timeless Plaid – 6 sheets each of Misty Moonlight, Old Olive, Calypso Coral & Wild Wheat

  *If you'd like any of these let me know.  I'll figure postage once you tell me how many shares you'd like and provide your zip code as well.  Email me here for a quote. 

  These shares will be offered for just a few weeks; so contact me soon.
