A neat Diamond Pop-up Fun Fold card with video & free project sheet

January 19, 2026

I shared this pretty fun fold card on last week’s Live video. If you missed it you can watch it here on YouTube or here on Facebook.

Isn’t it a neat card fold? And it’s super easy to make. I also love that it shows off our coordinating designer series paper so well. Here I used the Lovely & Beautiful Specialty DSP seen here. It’s gorgeous prints include gold foil accents.

I made two different versions because I needed multiples of them for our January Team swap with my Flowerbug’s.

The center greeting layer is added with two folded strips of paper positioned next to the center score line. This allows the greeting to pivot and pop-up when you flex the card. These are about 1 1/2″ X 1/2″ and I simply fold them in half and placed with the score lines next to each other.

You can see how the center panel ‘pops’ up when it’s opened. I really love this fold!

I used the Greenery Lane bundle for the greeting and the White leaf die-cut. You can see this bundle here.

The other two dies are from the Perennial Postage dies seen here.

I created a free project sheet for this fun fold card. Click here to download or print it.

Below is the video tutorial for this card.

Let it Snow?! Are you having a White Christmas?

December 25, 2020

Merry Christmas everyone! I hope you are enjoying your Holiday today and that you are able to spend time with some of your favorite people. This year is so unusual and difficult for many who are isolated. I wish you the best and thank you for your support this past year.

We did just get snow this week; very unusual for us in North Dakota! So it's a white Christmas after all.

Here are two of my favorite wintery cards featuring my Life is Beautiful stamp set.

Need a quick gift box for the Holidays? Use your designer paper!!

December 24, 2020

Are you a last minute wrapper? I can help! I made these fast gift boxes on this week's FB Live. Honestly they are super easy and you can make them wide or tall depending on where you score.

Save

Each one is made from 2 pieces of 12 X 12" designer paper; these are from Toile Tidings which is now discontinued and out of stock. Double sided paper is preferred and makes them extra special. I used the same patterns for each box; flipping the pattern so they coordinated.

I know some of you might think it's frivolous to use your designer paper for gift boxes. Now consider how much DSP you have stored up! Use it; you can do it!

Save

And here is another version with the new True Love designer paper; all Black & White! It's from the upcoming 2021 Spring Catalog!

Save

I colored some of the flowers on the paper with both Rococo Rose and Purple Posy Blends markers. Then I added two ribbons; Black glittered and Purple Posy.

Save

You can watch the video here. Scroll towards the end for the boxes.

Quite Curvy & Classic Christmas Strips

December 23, 2020

I totally enjoy making these strip cards! It seems like I always have little strips of paper left over from a project. Most times I can toss them without a thought but now & then I have trouble doing that. This technique puts them to great use!

Save

You can catch my tips on this technique in the video below.

I used the Classic Christmas designer paper on this card. It's available now through January 4th or while supplies last. The colors are Shaded Spruce, Sahara Sand & Cherry Cobbler. See it here.

I also used the Quite Curvy stamp set and dies. They are available now and will be in the upcoming 2021 Spring Catalog. See them here now.
