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.

  • Gingerbread & Peppermint fun fold cards – easy to replicate!

    Merry Christmas!!  I hope you enjoy a wonderful holiday.

    We made this neat card at my December Card Clubs. I love the double Z fold design. And it makes great use of both card stock and designer paper! 

    I used the Gingerbread & Peppermint bundle for the stamps & dies.  Unfortunately it's sold out already.  And so is the Heartwarming Hugs designer paper. Retiring Holiday Catalog time is so hard!  

    Frosted Gingerbread Dec Club Save

    But you can use this card layout with other designs and occasions.  One thing I love about this card is that the inside accordion piece is perfectly sized to get 4 out of an 8 1/2" X 11" piece of card stock so it's great for mass producing.  

    Frosted Gingerbread Dec Club Save

    The colors are Real Red, White & Mossy Meadow.  

    Measurements: 

    • Red card base 4 1/4" X 11" scored at 2 3/4" & 5 1/2"
      Mossy Meadow 2 3/4" X 8 1/4" scored every 2 3/4"
      DSP 2 1/2" X 4" for front, two squares at 2 1/2"
      White 2 1/2" for inside greeting, scrap for die-cut label

    Frosted Gingerbread Club Save

    Other products used here:

    • Real Red 3/8" Mini Ruffled ribbon (Holiday catalog)
    • Meadow dies for the pretty greeting label die-cut
    • Clear rhinestones

  • Plenty of Patterns with new Tropical dies; video tutorial

    This card in Pacific Point & White is so pretty!  I shared how to make it on last week's FB Live.

    Plenty of Patterns Pacific Point Save

    The window frame is made with the Stitched Rectangle dies on a piece of White CS 4" X 5 1/4". The pretty die-cut leaf is from a new set of dies coming out in the 2022 Jan-June catalog called Tropical Layer dies. 

    I used White Craft ink with the Plenty of Pattern masks seen here & below.  I did not use a sponge; I pressed the ink pad directly onto & through the mask on a separate piece of Pacific Point CS.  You can watch how it's done in the video here.  It's the first project.

    The greeting is from the Artfully Layered stamp set that coordinates with the Tropical Layer dies.  It will be in a bundle at 10% off next year.

  • New Artfully Layered stamp set with Plenty of Pattern masks; embossed grid technique & video

    Here's a card made in my series featuring the Plenty of Pattern masks from a recent FB Live seen here.  I think it's super neat!

    I explain how it's done in the video here.  Basically I laid the mask over my card stock and repeatedly pressed my Versamark ink pad directly over it.  Then I heat embossed with Clear embossing powder & my heat tool. I love this effect!

    The greeting is from the Artfully Layered stamp set in the upcoming 2022 Jan-June catalog.  It will be in a bundle with the Tropical Layer dies at 10% off.  

    After I created the embossed grid background layer I used a scalloped stitched rectangle from the Stitched So Sweetly dies to die-cut a piece from the center.  Then I adhered the outside piece to my Black layer and added the center piece on Stampin' Dimensionals. I wanted the Black to show a bit behind it.

    The oval die-cut for the greeting is from the Beautiful Layers dies; also from the upcoming new catalog. Adding a 1/2" Black strip brings the Black outer layer forward a bit.
