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!

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!

Save

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"
- Cork 1" X 4 1/2"
- Bumblebee 1/4" X 4 1/2" strip
