3 Flowering Cactus Fun Fold cards with video!

I created these cards on Facebook Live last week using the Flowering Cactus product medley seen on pages 8-9 of the Spring Catalog.  But I purchased the refill kit instead of the main suite because I wanted mostly the paper, twine and felt accents. 

You'll find the video below.  For those of you on Facebook you can see it here.  

I share a FB Live video each Tuesday at 11 am CT.  Join me here!

This fold is called a Joy Fold card; a favorite of mine that is basically two half cards folded into one another. 

The colors are Mint Macaron, Highland Heather and White.   The greeting is from Happiest of Birthdays.  The inside greeting is from Happy Thoughts set in the Spring catalog.

Next is an accordion style card.  I kind of made this one up; trying to use just half of a sheet of card stock for the fold.

This greeting die-cut is from the Stitched So Sweetly dies and that embossing texture is made with the Tasteful Textile 3D folder.  The greeting is from Simply Succulents stamp set in the Spring catalog.

Lastly is a super simple fun fold card that shows off your designer paper well; on the front and the inside of the card. *See measurements in the photo below.

  • NEW Everyday Details card with a unique Designer Paper layout with video tutorial

    I joined quite a few online card swaps for the new 2024 Spring & Sale-a-Bration catalogs and today's post features one of them. 

    Everyday Details swap Save

    It features the Everyday Details bundle and the Poetic Expressions designer series paper. Both are in the upcoming 2024 Spring Catalog that goes live on January 4th.  The colors include Boho Blue & Misty Moonlight with White. 

    There's a few special details I'd like to point out:

    1. The designer paper triangle is originally a 4" square, cut in half. I added it to a textured layer (4" X 5 1/4")
    2. The dotted circle die-cut is from the Everyday Details bundle; there are a variety of sizes in the set. It is adhered over a White stitched circle die-cut from the Stylish Shapes dies. 
    3. I stamped the cup image in Misty Moonlight ink. The flower is colored a soft white by using our Craft White ink and a Wink of Stella pen. I shared how to do this in the video here.  You can also use a Blender pen, a water pen or Watercolor Pencils.

    Here's a close-up of this technique.

    I thought I'd take a photo of all of the swaps before I mailed them out:

  • Translucent Florals card made with colored vellum

    I created this pretty card with the Translucent Florals bundle.  I used our vellum card stock and changed it from opaque to Fresh Freesia. 

    Translucent Florals card Save

    It's really easy to do.  Here's how:

    1. I cut a good size piece of vellum from the main sheet and laid it onto my grid paper.
    2. Then I pressed my open ink pad onto the card stock until it was covered.
    3. To smooth the ink out use sponges or a blending brush. Let dry or heat set before die-cutting. 
    4. Die-cut the flowers, leaves and white centers

    Products & measurements:

    • Translucent Floral bundle
    • White card stock – card base 8 1/2" X 5 1/2" score & fold at 4 1/4"
    • Painted Texture embossing folder – white is 3 1/2" X 4 3/4"
    • Fresh Freesia card stock 3 7/8" X 4 7/8"
    • Granny Apple Green 4 1/4" X 1" strip 
    • Vellum card stock – a large piece colored with Fresh Freesia ink and a small piece with Granny Apple Green ink
    • Blending Brushes 

    Here's a photo of this pretty bundle. See it here.
