3 more pretty fun fold cards for you with measurements; one is a sneak peek of upcoming product!


I hope you're enjoying the awesome fun fold cards I've been sharing this week.  My Flowerbugs Team swaps were incredible this month!  Our theme was to make fun fold cards featuring a new In Color. 

First up today is Candy's card which features Secret Sea with Cloud Cover & Vanilla. 

She used the Textured Notes bundle seen here.  It's one of my favorites!  She created her own background using the stamps in the set and Secret Sea ink – stamping off first for some. 

Measurements:

  • 7 1/4" X 5 1/2" scored at 4 1/4"
  • Vanilla panels 2 3/4" X 5 1/4"
  • Cloud Cover 1 1/8" X 5 1/4"
  • greeting die-cut 2 1/4" X 3/4", layer is 2 3/8" X 7/8" 

The textured panel is done with the Pressed Flowers embossing folder seen here.

Next is a lovely card made by Ginny featuring the Beautiful Gallery designer paper seen here.  It's part of our Suite BOGO sale too; in fact the entire suite is included!  

Her layout shows off the entire scene pictured on the DSP. This fold is perfect for scenic papers! 

Measurements:

  • Cloud Cover card base 8 1/2" X 5 1/2" scored at 2 1/8" & 4 1/4"
  • DSP – front panel is 4" X 5 1/4", inside is 2" X 5 1/4"
  • White is 2" X 5 1/4"

Lastly we have a sneak peek of some upcoming product from Kim. She used a suite featured in a Demo event called Creativity Now this month. She was able to pre-order the Peaceful Garden suite items that will be in the upcoming Holiday catalog in September, 2025. 

Her card is a simple Z-fold that really shows off that front White textured panel.  And look how the die-cut greeting label fits in that embossing panel! *notice those new flower gems….

She did a neat technique for her greeting panel. She used Secret Sea ink and a Blending Brush over an entire sheet of White card stock. Then she stamped and die-cut the label and the inside sprig from that. Super idea!

Measurements:

  • card base 8 1/2" X 5 1/2" score at 2 1/8" & 4 1/4"
  • White front is 4" X 5 1/4", inside is 3 1/2" X 4 3/4"

  • Three pretty swap cards with great layouts


    Our Team swap theme was nature or animals this month. I’m sharing three pretty cards I think you’ll want to case.

    First is a card made by Jonna who is featuring the Nature’s Symphony suite.

    She used the Nature’s Symphony stamp set and the Nature’s Walk designer paper here. I love the layout so much! Adding your greeting strip across the front is a fantastic way to break up the large layers.
    Her colors include Pretty Peacock and White.

    Measurements are as follows:

    – Cloud Cover card base 8 1/2″ X 5 1/2″ score at 4 1/4″
    – Pretty Peacock large layer 5 3/8″ X 4 3/8″, small layer 3″ X 4 1/4″, strip 4 1/8″ X 1″, inside is 4 1/8″ X 5 3/8″
    – White 2 3/4″ X 4″, inside 4″ X 5 1/4″
    – DSP 4″ X 5 1/4″

    Inks used: Pretty Peacock and White Craft ink.

    The next card is made by Tracey who used a new to me’ tearing technique on her pretty card:

    She used the Floral Charm designer paper. Actually it’s just one sheet and measured 3″ X 4″ before she tore it. The technique she used is called ‘Rip & Flip’. You tear the lower half off and flip it to reveal the other side. Slide the torn piece under the upper portion to hide the ‘cut’ side. So cool!

    Look at the ribbon above the greeting circle. She formed loops of Berry Burst 1/4″ shiny ribbon and adhered it underneath the flowers and greeting. So smart and unique!
    The colored and die-cut flowers are from the Extraordinary Flora bundle seen here.

    Measurements:

    – Pretty Peacock card base 5 1/2″ X 8 1/2″ score at 4 1/4″
    – Berry Burst 4 1/4″ X 3 1/4″
    – DSP 4″ X 3″
    – White circle die-cut

    Lastly is Candy’s card featuring the Nature’s Symphony stamp set with a neat technique:

    She cased this technique from Kim Quade. She created a window with the Stylish Shapes dies and another piece of paper. She used Blending Brushes inside the window for the soft, multicolored look and stamped the leaves before removing her mask.

    Her ink colors include Balmy Blue, Daffodil Delight and Fresh Freesia. She stamped the images with Secret Sea. Beautifully done!

    I’ll share more swap cards tomorrow.
