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!

Cheerful Daisies card; perfect for Springtime!

May 17, 2023

I'm excited to share this pretty card with you. We made it at my May card clubs. It features the Cheerful Daisy bundle.

Save

I absolutely love the colors! I chose Lemon Lolly, Garden Green, white and the new Azure Afternoon. I think the blue washed layer from the Fresh as a Daisy designer paper shows off the white & yellow daisies perfectly.

Here's how we finished the inside:

Save

I sponged extra yellow on the Lemon Lolly daisy centers before adding the White die-cut over them. Here's a photo of the dies display I made: I did not add the separate individual daisies that fir over the large yellow die-cut below. On my card they're white.

Save

The ribbon wraps all around the card front and ties on the far left. The greeting covers the knot so you see mostly the ends.

Save

Check out that amazing, detailed greenery die-cut! It even comes out of the die easily. Love it!

Save

See the Cheerful Daisies bundle here; I think it's wonderful! Best daisy set we've had for awhile.

Quick cards with just ONE sheet of the Fresh as a Daisy designer paper!

May 16, 2023

The Fresh as a Daisy designer paper seen here is filled with pretty daisy prints and soft washes of colors – many are our newest In Colors and Core colors!

Here are the 4 cards I made from just one sheet!

Save

This one sheet has a bunch of printed, blocked patterns ready to make fast cards with.

Save

One of my favorites is this one; featuring a pretty bouquet of white daisies on our new Bubble Bath pink color.

I added a strip of White card stock below, ribbon, a greeting and a pretty foliage die-cut which are both from the Cheerful Daisies bundle.

Save

I LOVE this one! Again, white daisies on a washed background. I paired this piece over a strip of Early Espresso cardstock on a Lemon Lolly card base. I heat embossed the greeting in White on the die-cut in the Cheerful Daisies bundle. White twine finished it off!

Save

What a gorgeous scenic background this is! I dd nothing to it but stamp the stems & leaves and added the die-cut daisies, greeting and gems. The colors are Copper Clay with Crushed Curry.

Save

Lastly is this pretty triple-panel card in Azure Afternoon with Copper Clay. I cut the daisy panel into three pieces measuring 1 5/8" X 4" tall.

Again I heat embossed the greeting in White embossing powder onto a piece of Copper Clay card stock. I added a die-cut daisy to the side.

Save

I'm featuring this pretty paper in one of my May card kits to go. I have a limited supply of them so grab yours while you can. See it here.

Clever & Amazing interactive triple-tier cake card with video tutorial!

May 15, 2023

This card might look like an ordinary card with a layered cake on front but it's not!

Save

Each layer opens up to reveal more inside! Click on the very short video below to see it in action!

The Bright & Beautiful designer paper is new in Stampin' Up!'s annual catalog. It's filled with fun and colorful patterns in many of our new core colors. Love this paper!

Save

If you've followed me for awhile you know I like to create interesting fun fold cards. I saw something like this card online and knew my stampers would like to see it.

I cut strips or pieces of the Bright & Beautiful designer paper into sizes that would make a nicely layered cake. Each piece is folded in half. Once you open them there's an inside message on each layer. So cool!

And the best thing is that the middle star die-cut hold the lower flap closed which then holds each layer closed.

Save

I have enjoyed playing with the Beautiful Balloons bundle this month. You cannot go wrong with balloons; they're great for birthday's, graduations, weddings or any celebratory event.
