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!

Beautiful Fall card swaps!

October 5, 2021
Look at these stunning swaps made by my Team. Our theme for September's swap was autumn cards.

Annette created this first one using a innovative sponging technique

I'm sure you cannot guess how she did this …..!

It features the Welcoming Woods stamp set seen here. She used a variety of colors like Highland Heather, Pumpkin Pie, Crushed Curry and Misty Moonlight.

Here's how she did it: She gathered up a sheet of plastic wrap and dabbed it in ink a few times. Then she dabbed it horizontally across her stamped image piece. With each color change, she re-rolled the plastic wrap & blended the previous one a bit to achieve a beautiful sunset look.

She added some of the leaves from the stamp set to the inside as well.

Gorgeous Leaves paired with the Timber embossing folder

October 1, 2021
Today I get to share two cards made by my talented Team members who used the beautiful Gorgeous Leaves bundle seen here. I shared a bunch earlier this week as well. Click here to see them.

First is a beautiful card made by Marilyn. Her colors include Crumb Cake, Cajun Craze, Old Olive & Crushed Curry.

It's hard to see in this photo but after she stamped the background she ran it through the die-cutting machine with the Timber embossing folder.

Her die-cut leaves are darker than the normal hues since she sponged the corresponding color over each one. Neat effect!

Measurements:
- Crumb Cake 5 1/2" X 8 1/2"
- Cajun Craze 3 3/4" X 5" & Stitched So Sweetly die-cut 2 1/2" X 3 5/8"
- Vanilla 3 1/2" X 4 3/4" & 2 1/8" X 3 1/4"

Next is a lovely card made by Deloris. She also used the Timber embossing folder seen here.

She also added a strip of the Cork specialty paper. This paper can be found in the Holiday catalog on page 55. It sure adds a neat touch to autumn or men's cards!

Her colors include Early Espresso, Cajun Craze & Bumblebee.

Measurements:
- Early Espresso card 5 1/2" x 8 1/2"
- Cajun Craze 3 3/4" X 5"
- White 3 1/4" X 4 1/2"
