All Aflutter envelope-flap style card with free project sheet & video

June 22, 2026

This neat fun fold card was created for my June card clubs. I call it an envelope flap closure.

My colors include Darling Duckling, Blueberry Bushel with White. Wonderfully bright for summer! I used quite a few products here so I’ll list them for you.

All Aflutter stamp and dies bundle seen here
Darling Duckling 12 X 12″ Two-toned card stock
Irresistible specialty designer paper seen here
Lazy Daisy & Floral Spray 3D embossing folders
1 3/4″ and 2″ circle punches
Blending Brushes
a sanding block

The Irresistible designer paper is cut into a 3 3/4″ square and scored in the center diagonally. It’s adhered to the back of the Blueberry Bushel card base before that is adhered to the larger Darling Duckling CS.

There are three patterns in this specialty Irresistible designer paper you can see here. When you add ink to this specialty paper it reveals the white shiny pattern.

You can see the two patterns I used on my card here.

And here’s the other version. Note both the blue Irresistible patterns and the embossing folders.

After we textured the 2-toned Darling Duckling card stock we sanded it with a sanding block (from my husband’s shop) to reveal more of the White core.

You can see the All Aflutter bundle here. I love having butterfly images with a coordinating punch! See it here.

I created a free project sheet for this card with measurements, photos and supplies list. Click here to see it.

Below is the video tutorial for this card and one other made with the cute All Aflutter bundle.

I’ll share the second card with the free project sheet tomorrow.

Also note that some prices are going up. The cost of business is increasing world wide; as I'm sure you've noticed when shopping. Here's a chart showing some of the price changes in the upcoming new Annual Catalog.

Now on to the projects!

I shared these neat cards on last week's Live video. I love it when you can show off both sides of our pretty designer papers!

This card uses almost half of a 12 X 12" piece of designer paper; but it truly makes the most of your printed paper.

I chose the Pretty Prints DSP from the Annual catalog. It includes 4 colors; Calypso Coral, Bermuda Bay, Evening Evergreen and Blackberry Bliss. It's on the retiring list now and discounted to $8.40 instead of $12. See it here.

It's quite an easy fold to make. You make a few score lines and then trim off the top at an angle; then add that trimmed piece to the bottom edge. Watch the video to see how it's done.

Measurements:
- Card base 4 ¼” X 5 ½”
- DSP 5 ¼” X 12” score at 2”, 4”, 8” & 10”. Mark at 2 3/8” and cut off to 4” mark
- White front square 2 1/4", inside 3 3/4" X 5"
- Front square layer 2 1/2"
Save

I chose the Kind & Sincere stamp set for my greetings. I think the mixed font and wide range of phrases is fabulous. Unfortunately it is on the retiring list. It's now $15.60 instead of $26.

Gift card pop-up card; a fun fold that’s easy! Featuring Pretty Prints, Art Gallery & Radiating Stitches dies

April 13, 2023
I shared two neat fun fold cards in this week's Live video. Pretty Prints DSP seen here was featured in both.

This designer paper is an easy favorite; the soft, botanical prints and 4 rich colors are gorgeous!

Here's the card I shared; it's a pop up gift card holder:

The front greeting is from the Art Gallery dies seen here. They're discounted now; they were $34 and are now just $13.60. These words are cut from Evening Evergreen card stock and adhered to a white die-cut from the Radiating Stitches dies. These are on the Online Exclusives products but are currently unavailable. They will be back in May.

My colors include Evening Evergreen (so sad it's retiring!) and Soft Sea Foam.

I used the wonderful Kind & Sincere stamp set for this card; it's discounted to $15.60 and on the Last Chance list. I love the mixed font and how many phrases you can make with the greeting images. See it here.

This next photo shows you how the gift card layer works. The 1/2" flap is adhered to the upper front of the card. The lower fold is tucked in the lower fold of the card base. The ribbon around it secures it closed; there isn't any adhesive used on the lower flap.
