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.

Splendid Day cards with an easy background technique; video too.

June 30, 2022

Check out this pretty card using the Splendid Thoughts bundle. I shared how to make it in a recent Live video seen here.

I think the Brick background is so pretty with the die-cuts. I used the 'Direct to Paper' technique. I used the Brick Wall embossing folder on the Calypso Coral CS and then used an open White Craft ink pad to lightly brush ink onto the textured CS. I purposely keep my White Craft ink less inked than desired because I love doing this!  If yours is well inked you may want to use a sponge instead.

The colors include White, Calypso Coral, Soft Sea Foam and Petal Pink. The Splendid Day Specialty designer paper is gorgeous and full of Foil & Copper accents on one side and subtle prints on the other. Here's what the entire suite looks like. It will be available tomorrow, July 1st.

I stamped a few of the die-cuts and the greeting in Smoky Slate ink. I fussy cut the greeting and added it to the curved 'half circle' die-cut over the ribbon.  I'll share more Splendid Thoughts projects tomorrow.

Thursday is the last day; crazy Kits Collection BOGO deals!

June 29, 2022

Have you tried any of our current Kit Collection kits yet? Check them out here ASAP. Tomorrow is the last day of the BOGO promotion.

I demo'd them on last week's Live so you could see how wonderful they are. Click here to watch.

How does the BOGO work?

It's quite unusual in that the second kit at 50% off can be the more expensive one.

Such as; buy one for $12 and get a second kit at $20-25 at half off! Crazy but true!

The first kit I'm sharing is the Light the Candles kit seen here. It includes everything you need to complete these 8 cards.

Save

I love how bright & colorful this kit is and the dimensional strips are easy to use. The cute glittery prints are quite eye catching.

These kits are 'all inclusive' which means everything is supplied for you. Many include the ink and stamps and others have pre-printed sentiments with no stamping needed. There's something for every taste or need. Click here to see them all.

The Robot Buddies kit is perfect for kids. It has a neat robot stamp set in it and includes TWO ink spots! too.

Save

Click here to see all of the 17 kits available! Remember these change frequently. If they run out of stock they usually come back. They say they'll be available (while supplies last) for a year after they're introduced.

Save

Due to popular demand I have another Annual Catalog paper share going. There are 2 spots left.

Contact me here if you'd like one. It's $26 for eighty two 6 X 6" sheets!

My colors include Mossy Meadow, Polished Pink & Balmy Blue. The pretty die-cut flowers are all from the Awash in Beauty designer paper.

Do you see the little bit of color on the Pink blossom die-cut? I used Wink of Stella and my White craft ink to add color. Watch the video below to see how.
