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!  

Here is a photo of all of the incredible swap cards by my Team in October. I hope you've enjoyed this weeks posts featuring their cards.

  • Sweet Citrus video; a Grapefruit version with optional gift card


    We made this CUTE fun fold card at my February Card Clubs and it was a big hit!  Everyone loved the fresh color combo and how cool the textured fruit images are.  

    I used the Sweet Citrus bundle seen here and these colors: Flirty Flamingo, Pale Papaya and Granny Apple Green.  You can sure see the texture in the photo above.  Did you know you can use our Hybrid embossing folders to texture and die-cut all at once?  It's super cool and saves a step. 

    I show how in the video along with how to stamp the fruit perfectly using the Stamparatus.  Perfect every time! 

    The card is a bit different in that the lower panel can be left open to add a gift card or money into.  Or seal it up; your choice.  

    Card measurements: 

    • Card base 4 1/4" X 11" scored at 4" & 9 1/2"
    • White 4" X 3 1/2" for textured front, stamped front panel is 2 7/8" X 4", inside is 4" X 3 1/2"
    • Granny Apple Green 3" X 4 1/8"
    • Pale Papaya strip 4 1/4" X 3/4"
    • Dandy Designs DSP 4" X 1 1/4"

  • Sweet Citrus bundle with a Hybrid embossing folder; you can texture & cut at the same time!


    In a recent video I shared multiple projects featuring the Sweet Citrus bundle.  Every card I make with this set is my favorite!  How can that be?

    Let's start with colors – they're Balmy Blue with Daffodil Delight and Garden Green.  So fresh and spring-like.  

    The designer paper is called Country Gingham seen here. 

    The images and greetings are all from the Sweet Citrus stamp set. It comes in a bundle with dies AND a Hybrid embossing folder. See it here

    What is a Hybrid embossing folder?  It's one that allows you to cut AND texture at the same time.  You can use it the usual way as well.  But using the die & folder together eliminates a step.  I show how it's done in the video here. 

    There are many reasons to get this bundle but the greetings are a big one.  So perfect and coordinate nicely with the stamp theme.  

    I shared lots of samples in the video; I hope you watch it!  Remember to follow me on Facebook here or on YouTube here.
