3 great fun fold ideas from my Team swaps

You're going to love these fancy fold cards made by my Flowerbug's Team for this month's swap.  I shared a few others yesterday and here are three more:

Lori made this cute 'gift box' card.

Oct Lori Take a Bow Save

She used the Take a Bow DSP seen here and the Peaceful Christmas dies too.  She wrote the 'Merry' greeting by hand. It's like a pocket card except the top is a fold that pulls up the inside like this:

Oct Lori Take a Bow Save

Measurements: 

  • DSP 2 pieces of each at 3 7/8" X 4 1/2" (striped), Red is 1 1/8" X 4 1/2"
  • Real Red 4 1/4" X 2" score in half at 1" (poke two holes for threading ribbon), 3" X 4 1/4" inside pocket
  • White 2 3/4" X 4" inside pocket layer
  • scraps for die-cuts 

Next is a sweet card made by Joan who did make a pocket card!

Oct Joan Christmas Friends Save

She used the Christmas Friends stamp set (seen here) along with the Deckled Circle dies.  Isn't her coloring fabulous?  She has a knack for coloring with the Blends markers.  

Next is an adorable card made by Sharon who chose the Sweetest Star bundle and also used the Take a Bow DSP. 


Oct Sharon Sweetest Star Save

She scored her colored Santa from center to each point and added it to the inside of her punched star window with two stacked dimensionals in the center.  Love this idea!  See the Sweetest Star bundle here.

  • Forever Friends kit; a beautiful set of foil accented cards & envelopes

    Two weeks ago I had time to create at a stamping get together at our church.  I took 3 kits and make them in about an hour and a half.  Stress free and fun!  I love using our kits because I have everything I need to make the cards; I simply need adhesives and a bone folder.!

    Here's the start of my 9 cards.

    And here are the finished cards!  I did change up the greetings because I needed a bunch of thank you cards.  I kept the kit mostly as is since they were so pretty as designed.  

    This kit is called Forever Friends and can be seen here.  It's $21 and includes everything you need to create 9 cards with coordinating envelopes like stamps, a block, ink, embellishments & more.

    It's just one of our many kit available in our Kit Collection online.  

    Each kit includes pre-cut pieces and printed images. Some kits include stamps, ink and a block. Others do not and are ready to finish without any stamping.  You can choose what fits your needs.  

    Below is a snapshot of some of the kits in our collection.  They are available from one year; but supplies can run out within that year. But they'll restock them once they do for up to that year.  See them all here.

  • Beautiful Balloons card swaps

    This week I've been sharing card swaps made by my Flowerbug's Team.  Our swap theme for May was to use new products from the 2023-24 Annual Catalog.  

    This colorful, birthday card was made by Sharon. It's full of texture, patterns and is also a simple fun fold.

    She trimmed off an inch from the right side of her card front to reveal the neat fringe die-cut on the inside of the card.  The pattern paper is from the Bright & Beautiful 6 X 6" paper seen here.  

    More details:

    • Colors include Boho Blue, Berry Burst, Lemon Lime Twist & Blueberry Bushel. 
    • The balloons & greeting are die-cuts from the Beautiful Balloons bundle
