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.

More fabulous Flowerbug’s Christmas cards

October 28, 2021
I shared some of my Team Christmas card swaps yesterday here. And today there's more beauties; all made with stamps from the 2021 Holiday Stampin' Up! catalog.

this first card was made by Candy using the Reflected in Nature stamp set & Welcoming Woods. I LOVE her colors of Navy, Cherry Cobbler, White & Smoky Slate. A gorgeous card!

Next is a super neat fun-fold window card made by Candace. She used the Penguin Place bundle in Navy, Coastal Cabana, White & Black. The penguins are extra special punched from Black glimmer paper.

Save

At first glance it looks like a regular card front. But wait…. look!

Save

She cut a window on the front using our Stitched Rectangle dies revealing the cute penguin layer inside. They're actually attached to a second card base inside that flips down.

She used the Whimsy dies to add a stitched border to each inside layer. Love this detail.

Save

Isn't it cool?!

Measurements:
- Navy card base 4 1/4" X 11" scored at 5 1/2"
- Coastal Cabana inside card base 5 1/4" X 8" scored at 4"
- White pieces 4 3/8" X 2 7/8", Navy layer is also 4 3/8" X 2 7/8" inside
Barb made this unique card using the Be Jolly stamp set. Her colors are Misty Moonlight, Red & White.

Save

She heat embossed the stars on the front layer with White embossing powder. She also sponged the edge. She used our Layering Circle dies for her Santa. But look how it flips open to reveal a greeting!

Save

Such a fun surprise and it's just a 1/2" flap hidden under the front layers. So smart!

Here's the inside view:

I love sharing what my Flowerbug's Team make; they're fabulous stampers!

Christmas card swaps!

October 27, 2021
I love sharing the cards my Flowerbug's make for our Team swaps. We had a great turnout for the October meeting and swap.

Marilyn made this first card using the Welcoming Woods stamp set. Her colors are Soft Succulent, White & Evening Evergreen.

Save

Products used are all from the 2021-22 Annual Stampin' Up! catalog:
- Wintry 3D embossing pair seen here
- Hippo & Basic Border dies
- Tidings of Christmas 6 X 6" DSP
- 2021-23 In Color Shimmer Vellum
- Soft Succulent ribbon
And here's the inside. She punched a strip of Evening Evergreen CS with the Evergreen Border punch and then textured it with the Evergreen Forest 3D embossing folder!

Save

Next is a card made by Paula featuring the Tidings & Trimmings bundle in the Annual catalog.

Save

Her colors include Real Red, Evening Evergreen & White. The star is cut from the Be Dazzling specialty paper in the previous Sale-a-Bration catalog.

I love how she wove the ribbon through the scalloped openings in the die-cut. This die is from the Scalloped Contour dies seen here.

~~~

Next is a pretty card made by Mary featuring the Evergreen Elegance stamp set; also in the Annual Catalog.

It's a fun fold card where you fold back the front flap of the card.

Save

The designer paper is also the Tidings of Christmas and that nice large White die-cut is from the Seasonal Labels dies seen here. They coordinate with the wonderful Christmas Season stamp set.

Nature’s Harvest card with embossed vellum

October 26, 2021
I just realized I hadn't shared this pretty card we made in September at my Card Clubs. It features the Nature's Harvest bundle seen here in the 2021 Stampin' Up! Holiday catalog.

Save

The colors include Bumblebee, Just Jade, White, Gold & Vellum. When I use vellum I always think 'Why don't I use it more?' It can be the perfect layer without adding 'too much'.

Details:
- The Vellum card stock is embossed with the Timber 3D embossing folder.
- The coneflowers are colored with Stampin' Blends markers.
- That glitzy wheat stalk is part of the Harvest dies and from the Be Dazzling specialty paper that was available during Sale-a-Bration.
- The greeting is from the Delicate Dahlias (Sale-a-Bration) stamp set on a Tasteful Label die-cut
Save

Measurements:
- Bumblebee card stock 5 1/2" X 8 1/2" scored at 4 1/4"
  • Vellum CS 3 3/4" X 5"
  • White scraps for circle, greeting and flower
  • Be Dazzling paper scrap for stems
  • Penguin Playmates DSP 1 1/2" X 4 1/4"
Save

And here's the video!
