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!

Pretty yet simple Gallery Blooms card with video tutorial & free project sheet.

June 17, 2025

I shared two pretty cards featuring the Gallery Blooms bundle on last week's video. The first was shared here. And this is the second one:

Save

Both featured the bundle and two main colors – Secret Sea with Fresh Freesia. The greeting die-cut is from the Nested Essentials set seen here. I'm so glad it didn't retire!

Get the measurements for this card on the free project sheet below.

Save

There's also a third card (top left) that I'll share tomorrow.

Save

I stamped the flowers on the Fresh Freesia layer to create a background pattern and used the same for the inside of the card. The two sets of flowers are stamped in Secret Sea and die-cut with the coordinating dies.

Save

This Gallery Blooms bundle comes with the stamp set and the coordinating dies and it's part of the Suite Sale of Buy one Get one 1/2 off. See it here.

Beautiful Gallery Suite in an ‘over the top’ card

June 16, 2025

I was playing with the Beautiful Gallery suite for last week's Live video and came up with this card.

Save

It has tons of die-cuts and layers I am calling it 'over the top'. It's not my normal style at all. But I do like it; probably because it has just a few colors in it. That helps it not seen too busy.

The textured 'frames' are done with the Damask Designs folder; both are die-cut frames in the Gallery Bloom dies (which are out of stock right now unfortunately). The smaller frame is popped up with Stampin' Dimensionals. The DSP in the background is the Beautiful Bokeh paper.

My colors include Fresh Freesia with White and Old Olive.

Save

I inked the two different floral stamps with Stampin' Write markers, coloring directly onto the stamp before stamping on my White CS. Watch the video below to get a tip or two on this technique. The rest of the pretty die-cuts are from this Suite seen here.

Save

Remember this suite and both bundles are both BOGO Through June – Buy 1 Get 1 50% off. Unfortunately I saw that the Gallery Bloom dies are out of stock right now.

Save

Below is the video tutorial for this card and another. I hope you'll watch it; and subscribe to my YouTube Channel!
