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!

  • Easel card fold with Modern Christmas with a free project sheet! Mystery boxes are still available!


    On last week’s video I shared two fun fold cards featuring the Modern Christmas suite. I shared one yesterday and today I’m sharing the Easel fun fold card. I haven’t made one of these for awhile and forgot how quickly they come together.

    Black, White & Gold are so classy. I did use one bundle and two sets of dies to create this card.

    I used the Traditional Labels bundle seen here for the greeting heat embossed in gold. And the Peace on Earth dies for the center die-cut. Plus the Peaceful Greenery coordinating embossing folder seen here. And lastly the Scenic Adventure dies here for the trees die-cut. Whew!

    There’s just something about a mostly white card that makes it elegant.
    I did create a free project sheet for this card. Click here to print or download it.

    Below is the video for this card and another fabulous Z-fold card. I hope you watch it and if you’re not already subscribed to my YouTube channel please do!

  • Modern Christmas Triple-Z card with video & free project sheet


    First; I’ll let you know I still have several Mystery Boxes left. Don’t miss the opportunity to get over $200 in free products! See the details here.

    I shared this super neat card on last week’s video. I love this fold! It looks like work but it’s so easy!

    Isn’t it fabulous?! I found several others online and had to try it. I chose to feature the Modern Christmas suite seen here.

    The scored lines to create this fold are simply 1″ & 3″ for both the card base and the 3 strips. Watch the video below to see how it’s put together.

    The main image of trees is stamped on the die-cut from Branching Out. See these dies here; they coordinate with the stamp set but stand alone too. The greeting is from the Traditional Labels bundle seen here. I cut a second die-cut in Gold and split it apart across the middle so it shows.

    Here’s how I stamped the back side:

    The trees & greetings are from the Ornamental Christmas bundle seen here. I love the playful style of the stamp set.

    The card bekiw is the card I made during the video. I changed it up a bit.

    The beautiful gold & black paper (and the above trees DSP) is from the Modern Christmas DSP seen here. It’s so elegant and fits with the star die-cut from the Modern Christmas bundle quite well. The circle die-cut is from the Spotlight on Nature dies seen here.

    I created a free project sheet for these cards. Click here to print or download it. I do recommend you create a file for project sheets or card ideas. It’s so handy to access it quickly.

    Below is the video tutorial for this card and another as well. Both feature this beautiful Modern Christmas suite. I’ll share the other card tomorrow.

  • Two more of my favorite kits. There are still Mystery Boxes left!


    My mystery boxes are selling well; be sure to grab yours while there are some left. *see below

    I wanted to share two more of my favorite kits from our Kit Collection seen here.

    First is a thank you kit called Thank You Kindly’. It’s an elegant set of cards that are both special & easy to make.

    They’re mostly white with gold foil accents & that stunning black pre-printed greeting. This is a non-stamping kit. It’s currently in low inventory so it will likely sell out soon. It’s just $14 and can be seen here.

    Next is the gorgeous Harvest Home Garland that can also be made into a wreath. It would be great for your Thanksgiving table or used as a wreath.

    It took me about 1 1/2 hours to make mine. I even added some sponging/blending to the paper leaves (which wasn’t in the directions. It have everything you need except hot glue – recommended to attach the leaves to the rope. It’s so pretty and I love the non-traditional colors that still have an autumn look. See it in the store here.
