Beautiful DSP Diamond Gatefold card with video & free project sheet

I shared this pretty fun fold card on last week's Live video. You can see it here or scroll down a bit.  

Save

It features the Spring Corners bundle seen here and the Bloom Impressions DSP from our Sale-a-Bration promotion.  This DSP can be seen here. It's free with any $60 purchase!  Unfortunately it's in low inventory status and may be gone soon.  I love it and thought it was one of our best offerings.

The Spring Corners set is one of my new favorites; I love the unusual corner style greetings and other images but the dies are special too!  As you can see in the front panel I die-cut the coneflower image and then replaced the flower centers with Melon Mambo pieces.  So easy and a fun trick! 

Save

Here's how it looks when it's opened below. Notice the greeting is in two lines horizontally.  I cut the 'corner' shaped stamp set at the corner point so I could have a normal inside greeting.  When I want to use it as a corner stamp it easily fits back together on my block again.

• Striking and fun Black Magic technique with video!

  June 30, 2026

  ---

  I shared this pretty card on last week’s Live video. It’s the Black Magic technique!

  Save

  My colors include Peaceful Pine, Old Olive (ink only), Golden Glow and White. It features the Fern & Flora bundle seen here.

  Save

  What is the Black Magic technique? It’s where you start with a light neutral piece of card stock and add color with sponges or markers. Then stamp images in Versamark and heat emboss with clear embossing powder. The magic happens when you cover it completely with a water based ink (here I used Secret Sea). Then wipe off the ink that does not ‘stick’ to the heat embossed areas. True magic!

  Watch my video tutorial further below to see this technique in action.

  Save

  On this card I used mostly the stamp images; only the greeting die-cut is from the dies. I added a few In Color butterfly gems and the pretty Golden Glow ribbon too.

  I created a free project sheet for this card; click here to download it or to print it.

  I made one with Golden Glow as the card base and the other as Peaceful Pine as the card base.

• Pretty Fern & Flora card; with free project sheet & video tutorial

  June 29, 2026

  ---

  There’s something about crisp white on a card. It gives a feeling of elegance to your projects.

  Save

  This card features the Fern & Flora bundle seen here. The designer paper is called Moonlit Flora and the embossing folder is called Fern & Flora and can be seen here. Unfortunately the Designer paper AND the embossing folder are out of stock right now. Very popular products!

  I took a little creative license and added White fern die-cuts here. I love the way they show up against the Moonlit Flora designer paper strip.

  The colors include Peaceful Pine, with White and the new Golden Glow in color.

  Save

  Which do you like better? All green and White on the upper right, or the pop of the additional Golden Glow?

  The pretty Moonlit Flora designer paper offers multiple patterns: See it here. Be sure to add your name to the product so you get an email when it’s back in stock.
