A neat overlapping fun fold card with free project sheet, video & punch trick!

March 10, 2026

Yesterday I shared one of the three fun fold cards I made in the video tutorial last week. Today I’m sharing the second one.

My colors include Mossy Meadow, Crumb Cake, White and the retired Boho Blue. The colors in the new Delicate Dreams DSP includes a brand new In Color coming out in May. It’s called Hydrangea Hue. I don’t have it yet so I had to substitute.

The Delicate Dreams designer paper AND the Delicate Whispers bundle are out of stock right now but you can add your email to the list to be notified when it’s available. Click on the links to do this. They should be back in stock in a few weeks.

The front top flap overlaps the lower one. I added a strip of the Boho Blue and besides texturing it with the Beautiful Pattern embossing folder I used my To the Point punch to mimic the Mossy Meadow punched piece. I love this punch!

Here’s how you do it.

You must insert the layer in the back of the punch and wiggle it between the slot. You don’t insert it through the usual space. See the card stock sticking out of the upper part of the punch? *If you don’t want the usual size of your punch this is how it’s done.

Here’s the inside view of this card with the upper flap lifted:

And here’s the view with both flaps lifted:

Notice the colored die-cut on the White layer here? I cut that die from the White layer and sponged it with Mossy Meadow ink. Then re-inserted it into the White CS. I love this effect!

If you’d like the free project sheet for this card layout click here. You can download or print it off. It includes measurements, supplies, photos and step by step directions. If you’re loving my free project sheets I suggest you create a file on your computer and save them all there. Easy inspiration!

I’ll share the last card tomorrow. Don’t miss it!

Below is the video tutorial for this card and two more.

Ornate Garden; simply done

April 3, 2020

Today I have another card featuring the new Ornate Garden products; the new early release from the upcoming 2020 Annual Catalog. You can see all of it here.

For this card I chose to use the Ornate Border dies for the pretty edge. The greeting is from the Ornate Thanks set and the embossed daisy is from the Ornate Style stamp set.

Save

You might see a little halo around the right daisy…. I first stamped it in Terracotta Tile, but it didn't show up well enough. So I tried to stamp again to heat emboss it in White. I was off a bit but I'm okay with it anyway. The stitched oval is a die from the Stitched Shapes dies.

I made a bunch of these for a swap last month; it's a pretty easy card with just a few special 'extras'.

Stamp with me! Tonight: Thursday, April 2nd at 8 pm on Facebook Live

April 2, 2020
Sadly, my April events are all cancelled due to the current pandemic. I haven't had a month without seeing my stamping friends in many, many years! We're having virtual clubs instead this month but it just won't be the same!

I know many of you are in the same situation so I decided to do a weekly 'Stamp with Me' Facebook Live on Thursdays at 8 pm CDT. It's a virtual stamping class. Join me Thursday night, April 2nd here on my FB page.

Save

We'll be making these 3 cards plus a bonus technique I'll demonstrate. Remember you don't have to use these exact products! You can easily substitute other paper, stamps etc.

If you don't have the Magnolia Lane designer paper you can use any other paper you own instead. It will be fun to see what everyone uses; we'll share our projects with each other afterwards.

Here are the supplies and measurements so you're ready to stamp with me:

- Card bases; one White 5 1/2" X 8 1/2", two of Mossy Meadow 4 1/4" X 11"
- Designer Paper – two designs cut at 4" square. Cut one on the diagonal in half. For the other, make a mark at 1 1/4" from the upper right and also from the lower left.
- Good Morning Magnolia stamp set
Extras: (it might look like a long list; but it's mostly accessories)
- Black Memento & Petal Pink inks
- Blends markers – Petal Pink, Light Mossy Meadow
- one large oval die-cut (largest Stitched Shape oval die or cut a rectangle at 2 1/2" X 3 1/2")
- a 1 1/2" White circle and a Petal Pink Pretty Label punched piece. (You can easily substitute any shapes here)
