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!

Rings of Love Triple Panel card with video & measurements

August 16, 2022
Here's one more card I made during last week's FB Live with the free Rings of Love designer paper in our Sale-a-Bration offering.

Save

I cut a 3 1/4" X 3" piece of the designer paper and then cut it into three 1" strips. I then layered it onto three strips of Evening Evergreen CS.

I textured the Crumb Cake layer with the Timber embossing folder – it's also a new Free Sale-a-Bration choice in August; with any $50 Stampin' Up! order.

I love how the three panels create a 'scene', making the DSP the star of the card. See the Rings of Love DSP here.

Measurements:
- Poppy Parade 5 ½”X 8 ½”
- White is 5 ¼” X 4”, Crumb Cake 5” X 3 ¾”
- Evergreen is 5 1/8” X 3 7/8”, DSP is 1” X 3 ¼”
- Evergreen strips are 1 1/8” X 3 3/8”
Get the details & see my other 2 cards in the video below:

Perched in a Tree Explosion card with video tutorial!

August 15, 2022
I can't stop using the Aspen dies! I absolutely love this tree die-cut!

Did you know these dies are free during August with our Sale-a-Bration promotion? Any $100 Stampin' Up! order and they're yours free!

Save

I created this card on last week's FB Live video. You can watch it here.

For the card front, I simply added a layer of the Rings of Love DSP behind it for a soft background. You can keep it this simple or create your own background!

However I made the inside of the card extra special with an Explosion fold. These look so difficult to do but honestly they're not! Please watch the video; afterwards you'll want to make one!

Save

The left card has the Rings of Love DSP and the card on the right features the Storybook Gnomes designer paper. For greetings I used the Soft Seedlings & Perched in a Tree stamp sets.

Save

I also shared an easy ribbon trick in the video; if you have trouble with bows I hope you watch.

Measurements:
- Card base 4 1/4" X 11" scored at 5 1/2"
- DSP – 3 7/8” X 5 1/8”, inside is 8” square
- Greeting strip 1” X 4”
- White 4” X 5 ¼” & inside is 3 ½” square

Stamparatus ‘Step’ technique with Amazing Phrasing set

August 12, 2022

I played with the Rings of Love DSP on this week's FB Live and this is one of the cards I made. It's so bright & cheery!

Save

I wanted to really show off the fun phrases you can create from the Amazing Phrasing stamp set seen here. I used just a bit of my favorite pattern in the Rings of Love DSP seen here. That was my inspiration for the colors – Mint Macaron, Poppy Parade & Petal Pink.

In the video I show you how easy it is to get the images stamped perfectly in place. It is quite simple yet crazy cool!

Save

I did stamp the 'amazing' one extra time and fussy cut it to pop it up on the card front. I also colored a few rhinestones with Blends markers to add some coordinating sparkle.

The Rings of Love DSP is free with any $50 order and the Amazing Phrasing stamp set is free with a $100 order. I love Sale-a-Bration!!
