An Pillar fun fold card with Amber Autumn; with video & project tutorial

November 3, 2025

I love this fun fold card! So easy yet unique as well.

I used the Amber Autumn stamp & dies bundle seen here. I was initially on the fence about this set; did I need another fall themed bundle? But wow; am I glad I bought it!
See how I finished the back side?

I used the large detailed die to add pretty borders to the sides. So pretty! It’s quite easy to snip a few of the connection points on the leaves. Here’s a photo of this pretty bundle:

I created a different version on my video.

Which one do you prefer? Notice that the pillar is on different sides of each card; do you have a preference?
Both feature the Gathering Together specialty designer paper. I also used a bit of the Earthen Toned Metallic paper for the die-cut leaves.

The card stock colors include Early Espresso, Vanilla and Timid Tiger.
In the video I shared how to get some highlights on your colored image using the Color Lifter Blends marker.

Here’s how the back looks on the Timid Tiger card:

Be sure to watch the video tutorial for this fun fold card and my other project featuring the Amber Autumn bundle. It’s a gorgeous set of products!

This colorful paper including the flowers is all the designer paper; there is nothing raised or popped up here except the tags. The die-cuts in the background are from the bundle seen here.

This next card shows off the Masterfully Made designer paper wonderfully. It looks like it's many strips of torn paper.

Fabulous Gone Fishing bundle swap cards

June 11, 2023

Father's Day is coming up Sunday and the Gone Fishing bundle is perfect for the occasion.

I received two swap cards on the cruise and thought you'd like to see them. First is my friend Susie Wood's card. Her style is similar to mine and we often share cards with each other. My husband and I spent time with her and her husband Deke on the cruise; not enough but we both treasure our friendship so much! Check out her fabulous blog here. She is super creative and a master at fun folds.

Save

Her colors are Night of Navy with Vanilla and Boho Blue. The tag is made with our Very Best Trio punch seen here.

Next is a card I received from Janet Holmes. The curvy border die-cut shows off wonderfully here.

I'll have lots more to share with this bundle soon!

Marvelous Nature Ombre technique with video tutorial

June 9, 2023

Today I'm sharing the other card I made during Tuesday's video. Both featured the new set called Marvelous Nature.

Save

I used an ombre technique where I inked the solid stamped image with three inks consecutively. The top is Pool Party, the middle is Lost Lagoon and the bottom is Pretty Peacock.

Save

You can see this pretty Marvelous Nature stamp set here.

The greeting is from the set but I did use the Stylish Shapes dies for it and popped it up on Dimensionals.

Save

The card base is Lost Lagoon with two strips of Pretty Peacock under the main image. As you can see by the photo below the left card is lighter than the right one. In the video I went over the upper part of the image one more time using the Stamparatus; mostly so I could get a more solid, complete image.
