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!

Quick cards with the Stack & Cut template! Video & measurements too!

October 10, 2022
I featured the Stack & Cut template for this project from last week's Stamp Camp class. Scroll down to see the template; it's one of my favorite ways to use designer paper and for quick cards too!

Save

I chose to feature the Celebrate Everything designer paper for a colorful thank you card. Here are the products I used:
- Greetings are from the Charming Sentiments stamp set
- Leaves are from the Simply Fabulous stamp set
- The white die-cut is from the Painted Label dies. The Poppy Parade circle is 2 1/4"
Save

And here is the template. Remember that you can use just one piece of DSP for one card; or stack two pieces and get 2 cards. This works best with double sided designer paper.

Save

I hope you try making some Stack & Cut cards soon. Like I said it's a wonderful way to use your designer paper.

Christmas Card Class – Attend class or get the pre-cut kit & tutorial!

October 7, 2022

Each year I offer my local gals at least 3 Christmas card classes so they can create beautiful cards to send to their family & friends. I also offer my long distance customers a chance to get these same cards in a pre-cut kit & tutorial as well.

Here are the beautiful cards for October's class:

Save

I love the variety – from cute to beautiful; they satisfy all of your holiday card needs.

For these cards I used the Christmas Season (2022 Annual Catalog), the Christmas Scottie, Sweet Candy Canes and Peace to You stamp sets from the 2022 Holiday catalog. You can substitute other sets for these if you'd like to.

The local class is on Saturday, October 29th at 10 am. Cost is $25 and you'll make 3 of each card with stamped, coordinating envelopes too. RSVP to attend by Thursday, October 20th please.

The pre-cut kit to go includes 12 cards, all cut, die-cut & punched pieces. It includes ribbons but not gems, texturing or stamped images. The cost is $25 plus shipping.

Go here to get the kit to go; while supplies last.

You can combine kits and save on shipping. You can see them all here.

I am not offering the PDF tutorial separately at this time.

I just love these cards!!

Last of the Team swaps; gorgeous cards from the Holiday & Annual catalogs

October 6, 2022

Today is the last of the swaps from our Flowerbug's September swap event. I've sure enjoyed sharing their talent with you and hope you've been inspired by them. If you haven't seen them all, click here and scroll down.

First up is a a card by Ginny who featured the Painted Pheasant stamp set seen here. I just love the colors she achieved on the bird!!

Save

She inked the stamp with markers; spritzed with water and stamped. A clever way to get multiple colors on this image.

Her card base is Petal Pink with a bit of Soft Succulent and Cajun Craze added too.

~~~

Next is a pretty card made by Marilyn with the Gathered White bundle seen here.

Save

She used the Deckled rectangles & Stylish Shapes dies in addition to the dies in the Gathered White bundle. Her colors are Crushed Curry with Early Espresso & White.

~~~

Lastly is Tracey's cute card made with the Cheerful Basket bundle. There's so much life & texture to this card!

Save

Her colors are Crushed Curry, Cherry Cobbler, White & Soft Suede. The embossing folder is called Gingham, the letters are stamped on the Celebrate Everything host DSP and the apples are colored with Blends markers.

The 'apples' is made with the adorable Alphabest bundle seen here. This punch & stamp bundle is so easy to use! It's photopolymer and allows you to easily and quickly customize your projects. See it here.
