3 great fun fold ideas from my Team swaps

October 24, 2024

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.

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:

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!

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.

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.

Another way to use the Border Basics dies – cut once for two card front!

June 28, 2023

Here's the third card I made for last week's live video; it also features the Masterfully Made designer paper, Wanted to Say dies and the Border Basics dies.

Save

My colors are Lemon Lime Twist, Cherry Cobbler and White. The flowers in this pretty designer paper are so real; you almost want to touch them.

You can see this beautiful designer paper here. It's discounted in June; down to $10.62.

Save

The photo below shows both cards made with the same designer paper. I loved this pattern so well I didn't change it up for the second card.

The greeting and hearts are all from the Wanted to Say dies seen here.

Save

The pretty scalloped stitched border is made with the Border Basics dies seen here. Start with a piece of White card stock measuring 4" X 5 1/4" and cut it in half with the scalloped die-cut. Now you have the start for two cards!

Below are all three cards made with this three products, all seen on the video below.

Cut once for two card fronts with the Border Basics dies; video tips & tutorial too

June 27, 2023

I shared one of the cards I made in last week's video and here's another one. Both feature the same three products: Masterfully Made designer paper, Wanted to Say dies and the Border Basics dies.
Save

I used the White die-cut leftover from the card I shared yesterday on this card; basically getting two cards from one die-cut!

The Border Basics dies are wonderful and so versatile since they die-cut the stitched edge on both sides. Below is a photo of the inside of the card:

Save

The Celebrate, Happy Birthday, stars and present die-cuts are all from the Wanted to Say dies seen here:

Save

Here are both cards I shared; each with a different piece of the Masterfully Made CS. As you can see I added a thin line of card stock to rest the 'Celebrate' die-cut on. I love the effect!

Save

Save

The photo below shows both cards; one cut for two card front!

Save

I cut the right side of the card front off (on the left card) and used that piece on the card on the right. Essentially I cut the card front in half and added it to the card on the right, adding DSP underneath to show off the angles. One cut; two cards!

Masterfully Made & Wanted to Say quick card ideas with video tips

June 26, 2023

And our annual Stampin' Sale is done! Each June my customers and I host a paper crafting sale – this year we had 30 sellers and we had a fabulous turnout!

Save

That photo was just the stamps for sale; we had so much more! I wish you could be here for it, but I know it is a long way for some to Minot, ND. But if you're near me, plan for the weekend after Father's Day. Make a road trip if you can.
We had one person come from St. Louis and another who was in town visiting from Peru! They were so glad to be here for this annual event.

Last week I shared three card ideas featuring three products: Masterfully Made designer series paper, Wanted to Say dies and Border Basics dies. Here's one of them:

Save

The Masterfully Made designer paper features a torn edge look to a few of the sheets. I chose this one because of it's beautiful colors. I added Berry Burst, Fresh Freesia and Azure Afternoon in the die-cuts from the Wanted to Say dies. This set of dies has a detailed and a layered die for each set of words in the set, plus a bunch of other dies like the flowers I used here. You can see them here.

Save

The angled border on the White card base is die-cut with the Basic Borders dies seen here. I love these and use them often. You can see them here. I saved the piece I die-cut and used it on another card. Here are both of the cards I made, using two different sheets of the Masterfully Made DSP.

Save

You can see this beautiful designer paper here. It's discounted in June; down to $10.62.
Save

As you can see, there is no stamping on the front. But I did add a greeting to the inside:
