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!

Hat’s Off; a neat bundle with so many possibilities. Video tutorial too!

June 28, 2021
The Hat's Off bundle was a bit of a sleeper to me when I first saw it. But seeing what other's created with it made me buy it.

Once I played with it, I absolutely loved it! See this bundle here.

I created this card for my June card clubs.

Save

I chose these colors; Gray Granite, Real Red, Crushed Curry and Misty Moonlight. I stamped the background stars with Versamark ink. I love the tone on tone this ink pad provides.

The stars are from the Stitched Stars dies and the texture is from the Checks & Dots embossing folder duo seen here.

Scroll down to watch the video.

Annual HUGE Stamping Sale is Saturday!!

June 25, 2021

Each year my customers and I host a HUGE crafting sale. We sell our excess product to make room for more; or to make money to buy more!

This year we have over 30 people participating and this is what is looks like! Remember most but not all is Stampin' Up! but it is all paper crafting items.

This first picture is just a quarter of our 25 tables. There's lots more inside and out.

It's in Minot, ND this Saturday, June 26th from 9-3 pm at 429 Cedon Drive. People who shop at our sale are so happy with the deals they've gotten. They never want to miss one.

It's absolutely amazing and the selection and prices are crazy! It's actually hard for me to see some of the Stampin' Up! products sell at these ridiculous prices. But then again, what good does it do sitting on a shelf?!

Here are some photos of our set up this year:

If you live near me in Minot, ND I hope you can come. If you don't, well I sincerely apologize for teasing you!

I hope you understand, but I cannot shop for anyone long distance. There just isn't time as we are open for just a few hours & tear down immediately after the sale while everyone is there to help. It takes a lot of people for this sale to run smoothly.

*If you want to come next year we traditionally hold it the last week of June.

I am planning a BOGO the end of July and hope to offer my retired products online to everyone.
