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:

Here is the free project tutorial you can print or download. Click here to access it.

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!

Beautiful DSP Diamond Gatefold card with video & free project sheet

February 11, 2025

I shared this pretty fun fold card on last week's Live video. You can see it here or scroll down a bit.

Save

It features the Spring Corners bundle seen here and the Bloom Impressions DSP from our Sale-a-Bration promotion. This DSP can be seen here. It's free with any $60 purchase! Unfortunately it's in low inventory status and may be gone soon. I love it and thought it was one of our best offerings.

Save

The Spring Corners set is one of my new favorites; I love the unusual corner style greetings and other images but the dies are special too! As you can see in the front panel I die-cut the coneflower image and then replaced the flower centers with Melon Mambo pieces. So easy and a fun trick!

Save

Here's how it looks when it's opened below. Notice the greeting is in two lines horizontally. I cut the 'corner' shaped stamp set at the corner point so I could have a normal inside greeting. When I want to use it as a corner stamp it easily fits back together on my block again.
