• Wow! Check out this fabulous fun fold that’s actually easy! Video & free project sheet too

  I'm super excited to share this neat fancy fold card with you today.  I made it on a recent video which I've added towards the bottom of this post.  

  

  I chose to use the beautiful Botanical Textures DSP seen here with Petunia Pop, Black & White.

  It starts out with a 11" X 4 1/4" piece of card stock that you score three times.  Then you add a 'bridge or brace' in the center that does the fun pop-up work.  Watch the video to see how it's done. And check out the free project sheet below too.  
  

  I stamped the greeting with the Linked Together stamp set and the leaves with the Textured Notes stamp set. The greeting die-cuts are from the Stylish Shapes and Spotlight on Nature dies. 

  It folds perfectly flat for mailing too!  

  

  I hope you'll watch the video below to see how to assemble this neat card. It's super fun to play with.

• Double Easel fun fold card with video & free project sheet

  March 24, 2025

  ---

  I shared this neat fun fold on last week's Live video.  I record them on Facebook Live then upload to YouTube so you can view them either place. 

  

  My color combination is Summer Splash with Black & White.  The new Botanical Textures DSP inspired this fun fold card. 

  I love how the three butterflies die-cut is placed on 3 Black circles; they would have been lost if placed directly on the DSP. 

  We made this project at last week's Team gathering.  They loved it! 

   

  

  Products used:

  • Botanical Textures DSP seen here
  • Sketched Butterfly bundle
  • Beautiful Butterflies stamp set
  • Fancy Border dies (seen here) 
  • Label punch
    

  I created a free project sheet with measurements & directions for you. Click on this link to download or print it.  Download Botanical Butterfly Easel card

  I also included the video below. What do you think of it?  I hope you'll try one!

• Last of the Clean & Simple Team swaps!

  March 21, 2025

  ---

  Today I'm sharing the last of the March Team swaps with the Clean & Simple theme.  No designer paper!

  Lori created with pretty card with the Linked Together bundle seen here. 

  

  This bundle has stamps, dies and masks which is how she created her background.  All using Bubble Bath ink! 

  

  I love her soft background and the die accents she added by the greeting.  Just gorgeous!  

  

  Next is a pretty card made by Tracey. She chose to use the You are Remarkable stamp set seen here.  

  

  She also stamped a soft background behind the flower using the Elements of Text set.  Her color include Daffodil Delight & Crumb Cake with a bit of green on the leaves.  

  I love how she stamped the inside; that bee is adorable. 

  

  And lastly is this beautiful all White card made by Jonna.  

  

  White on White is hard to photograph; I wish you could see how elegant it is in person!  

  She used the Seaside Wishes bundle along with a bunch of score lines on the left side. This little touch anchors the seashells wonderfully!  

  I hope you've enjoyed seeing my talented team swaps this month!
