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.

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

May 26, 2023

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.

Save

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.

Save

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.

Have a wonderful Memorial weekend!
