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!

Easiest Shake Card Ever; plus the quickest Christmas cards you can make!!

December 2, 2020

Have you wanted to make a shaker card but didn't want to deal with the Foam Adhesive and window sheets? Well I have a solution for you! Use a clear envelope! Yes; it works beautifully!

Save

I used one of the Wonder of the Season cards, cutting it down to 4" X 5 1/4" and adding another layered strip. I then inserted it into one of our clear envelopes (seen here) and folded the excess to the back, securing it with Tear & Tape. Then I added some Sequins for Everything and sealed it up. It's adhered to a Real Red card base and the greeting is adhered to the front.

The stamps are from the Tag Buffet stamp set.

You can watch how I did this in the video below; it's one of the first projects.

In the video I also shared the Wonder of the Season Memories & More projects. These cards are beautiful and filled with gold & red foil accents. I love these because they are super quick & easy! All I added were some Red rhinestones! No stamping or extra card stock!

Here are a few I made:

Remember I only used three products on these! All you need are the cards (seen here) and the cards & envelopes (seen here) and Red Rhinestones.

Save

You can use the 3 X 4" cards for the pretty card bases so the foil accents show. Or flip the front to the inside and use the larger 4" X 6" cards on the front. This way you can still see that pretty foil on the inside!

Aren't those Joy dies amazing? They include all 3 layers of the greeting. It also includes the words Joy & Peace too.

Video with Stampin’ Up! Stitched Dies for some easy WOW cards!

November 30, 2020
Look at these fun and unique cards made with the Stitched Triangle dies!

Save

Aren't they neat? Our Stitched dies are quite versatile and can be used in a variety of ways as you can see!

I used the Well Said stamp set, Well Written & Stitched Triangle dies. The DSP is 5 1/4" X 4" and the Vellum ¾" X 4”

These cards were created on last week's FB Live video. If you're not following me yet here's the link to my FB page. Be sure to like & follow so you catch them every week on Tuesdays at 11 am CT.

Check out the Stitched Rectangle cards below. I cut all of the Playful Patterns Designer Paper layers at the same time using just 2 dies.

Save

How did I do it? Start out with a piece measuring 5 1/4" X 4" and choose the 3rd & 6th dies from the outside. Perfect layers!

I then layered the Designer Paper with card stock and added a die-cut greeting from the Best Year stamp set.

Supplies & Measurements:
- Coastal Cabana, Crushed Curry, & Calypso Coral
- Tasteful Label dies, Detailed Bands dies, rhinestones
- DSP – 5 ¼” X 4”, and cut with dies at 3 ¾” X 3” & 3 1/8” X 1 ¾”
- CS – 4 5/8” X 3 ¼” and 3 3/8” X 2”
