Boughs of Holly Suite projects; with a special fun fold you’ll be amazed at!


I think everyone is loving the Boughs of Holly suite seen here; the paper is stunning and the Leaves of Holly bundle is incredible as well!  

These are the last swap cards from our Christmas swap with my Flowerbug's Team.  I hope you've enjoyed their amazing & creative projects. *Scroll back to see them all. 

Marilyn made this pretty card:

Her colors include Mossy Meadow & Cherry Cobbler with White.  She stamped a few spatters on the designer paper before texturing it with the Gingham embossing folder before adding the die-cut greeting and leaves.  This greeting die-cut with the attached holly leaves is so pretty & unique. 

Measurements: Card base 5 1/2" X 8 1/2", DSP is 4 1/2" X 3 1/4", the Cherry Cobbler layer is 4 3/4" X 3 1/2" 

Here's a photo of the entire Boughs of Holly suite:

Next up is an amazing card by Paula.  She made a vertical Pillar card.  I've never seen one before.  

The way she attached the mini envelope across the front 'bridge' is so neat.  Here are the directions she shared with me:

The dimensions are:
  • 8-1/2 x 5-1/2 cardstock in Evening Evergreen
  • On 8-1/2 side score down 1/4, 1, 1-3/4, 2-1/2  6, 6-3/4, 7-1/2 and 8-1/4.
  • Banish all score lines toward the center
  • DSP strips are 5/8" X 5 1/4" and the center DSP is 1 3/4" X 5 1/4", the bridge piece across is 5/8" X 3 3/8"  

It folds flat to fit in a A2 size envelope.  

Products used include the Mini Pocket Envelope die, the tag was Tailor Made tags and the Rectangular Postage Stamp punch for the greeting. She also added the Flat Jingle Bells on page 27 of the Holiday catalog and the Wintry 3D embossing folder for the texture on the pocket. 

The tag pulls out of the pocket for even more interest. 

So creative and unique!

  • The easy way to make a shaker card!


    You may think a shaker card needs foam adhesive strips or a die-cut window.  Not true! 

    You can make them easily from clear envelopes!  *did you know we have clear envelopes in our Annual catalog? See them on page 135 or here online.  You get 50 envelopes for just $7. 

    Just add your paper inside the clear envelope (making sure it fits tightly so the shaker pieces don't move behind), pour in some shaker elements like loose sequins or beads, and seal it up.  It's a super fun card to receive; it's a bit addictive to shake!  

    The designer paper is the Walk in the Woods and the stamps are from the More Wishes stamp set; both found in the Holiday catalog. I stamped the greetings on a die-cut from the Nested Essentials dies.  

    These cards are included in one of my Christmas card kits to go.  I have three different kit options to choose from; you can see them all here.  

    The kits include everything you need except stamps, ink and adhesives.  You can add on the stamp set at a 10% savings with the purchased kit. These Christmas card kits are limited; opt in while they're available.

  • Double-Decker fun fold card with video tutorial and free project sheet


    Here's the second card we made at my September card clubs. It's a 'Double-Decker' fun fold card. 

    It features the pretty All About Autumn specialty paper that is so popular it's been hard to keep in stock! It should be back around the middle of October.  See it here.  

    For the circle die-cuts I chose to use both Stylish Shapes for the Vanilla circles and Deckled circle dies for the Early Espresso circle.  The die-cuts in Vanilla & Copper Clay are from the Magical Meadow dies.

    The greetings are from one of my favorite stamp sets in the Holiday catalog – So Sincere.  

    Here's the free project sheet for you: Download Sept '23 Double Decker card

    A double-decker card is where the center layer is popped up by a small box attached to the inside, back of the card like this.

    You need to adhere the back layer before adding this box. Then you top it with your center layer; for my version it's a piece of designer paper.

    I added a second circle to the inside designer paper layer for signing.  But one of my smart customers thought of adding it to the back so it doesn't cover up any of the pretty paper. A great idea! 

    **Here's the free project sheet: Download Sept '23 Double Decker card

    Below is the video tutorial for this card; I hope you watch!
