Accordion Style Fun-Fold card with video

July 15, 2020

Here's another easy fun fold card that shows off all sides of your designer series paper. And uses up thin strips too!

I made them during my weekly 'Stamp With Me' Facebook Live last week.

I chose to use the Brights 6 X 6" designer paper pack and the Many Mates stamp set.

Aren't they fun? The back is flat and does not open. You could include a full card base on it instead of a flat piece if you'd like. I will write or sign the inside on the larger White part.

You might notice there are dots around some of the punched pieces. I used my Blends markers to add that fun detail. I also colored in some of the words on the greetings too. This stamp set is fun!

When you adhere the greeting on the front add adhesive to just the very top flap.

Last card in the Joseph’s Coat series with a video & free project sheet for each!

August 13, 2025

Here’s the last card made with the Joseph’s Coat technique this week. You can see the video tutorial below.

It features the Textured Notes stamp set seen here. I love this set! But I love the dies in the bundle even more. See the bundle here.

I used two of our newest In Colors here – Secret Sea and Timid Tiger. I love the fact that the Secret Sea matches the Cloud Cover card stock I used for the card base; when sponged lightly.

Both of these colors are part of the big In Color sale during August, 2025! It includes card stock, inks, markers, designer papers, embellishments, kits and lots more! Check out the many discounted products here.

If you’re wondering how to make this incredible colorful effect please watch the video below. I also gave the step by step directions in this post.

Gorgeous Joseph’s Coat technique with free project sheet & video

August 12, 2025

Here’s another beautiful card made with the Joseph’s Coat technique. I shared it on last week’s Live video. It’s so fun!

Save

My colors include Secret Sea, Timid Tiger and Darling Duckling. The stamp set is called Artistic Leaves and can be seen here.

This technique involved adding color to White card stock and then heat embossing images in Clear powder over the colors. Next rub a dark ink pad (Memento Black here). The embossed images resist the black ink – it must be water-based ink!

Watch the video below to see how it’s done. It’s super fun and such a cool effect.

I stamped the inside leaf with color by inking it in Timid Tiger ink and adding Secret Sea to the outer edges. Then I stamped the coordinating stamp in Darling Duckling.
