Bright Borders fun fold with Bloom Impressions DSP


We made these pretty cards at my Clubs in January.  I featured the Bright Borders stamp set with the To the Point punch and the Sale-a-Bration Bloom Impressions DSP. 

Unfortunately the To the Point punch is out of stock and isn't expected to be back until April!  I was worried about this when I saw it was in low inventory. 

The gorgeous Bloom Impressions DSP is a free choice during Sale-a-Bration and is also in low inventory.  If it does run out it's possible they'll turn off the item number if they cannot get more in stock before the end of February.  So grab yours here now! 

This is a fun fold card – sometimes called a 'back-fold'. The far right inside is scored so it can bend backwards. The greeting layers are adhered to that side and hold the card closed.  It's a great way to show off our coordinating colors in our beautiful designer papers.  


You can get the measurements in this free project sheet.  Also watch the video below. Click on the following link to print or download it.  Download Jan 2025 Bright Borders back fold

Below is the video tutorial for this card and another special fun fold.  I'll share the other card & free project sheet tomorrow. I hope you watch it and don't forget to subscribe to my channel!

  • Stunning cards in the New Horizons card kit to go; or choose the PDF tutorial option


    I couldn't decide which Designer Paper to feature for my April card kit to go so I did a poll on my Facebook group.  The majority asked me to use the New Horizons DSP.  I was leaning that way myself but their overwhelming response sealed the deal.  

    Here's a peak at the cards in this month's kit.

    This paper almost makes the card itself! The scenes are so beautiful you don't need much to finish them off.  Because of that this month's kit includes an extra set of 2 bonus cards for a total of 12 instead of the usual 10.

    This kit is what my monthly kit subscribers will receive.  Opt in for the pre-cut kit by April 18th. It's $28 plus shipping. 

    You'll receive the following in your kit:

    • 12 pre-cut cards, die-cut & punched pieces
    • 1/2 pkg of the New Horizons 6 X 6" DSP
    • a share of Pebbles Enamel Shapes
    • a share of 1/8" cotton combo ribbon
    • the PDF tutorial with photos, supplies, measurements & step by step directions. 

    You will need the following to complete the cards:

    1. Paper Trimmer, adhesives, Black, Blackberry Bliss & Evening Evergreen inks
    2. Stamps – I used the On the Horizon stamp set but you can substitute what you already own.  #Add on the stamp set or bundle at 10% off and it will ship with your kit! *message me here to get a total if you want to add on the stamp set or bundle 

    Click here to get the PDF tutorial.

    Click here to get the pre-cut kit to go (best deal)

    The PDF tutorial is emailed to you immediately after payment.  The kit will ship out at the end of April, barring any back-orders.  

    Here's a recent comment from a customer: I just received my kit loved the way you packaged it together I have bought other kits and yours is one of the better ones. The PDF is simple to understand for me and I so appreciate the time it took you to do all this. Many thanks.

  • Flowering Tulips Matchbox cards; easy fun-fold cards with video


    Happy April 1st!!!  It even feels a bit like spring is coming here in North Dakota.  I've been able to get out for walks again lately without worrying about slipping on ice.

    I wish we had real tulips out but it's too early here. 

    Here are two more Matchbook style cards featuring the Flowering Fields designer paper and Flowering Tulips stamp set.  The set includes lots of greetings and many different tulips too.

    I made them on a recent FB Live; the link is below. 

    Measurements:

    • Card base 4 1/4" X 6 1/2" scored at 5 1/2"
    • DSP 3 3/4" X 5 3/4" scored at 4 5/8", 3/4" X 4" lower strip
    • CS layer 4" X 5"
    • White inside 3 3/4" X 4 1/2" 

    Isn't this designer paper pretty?!  See the Flowering Fields DSP here. The dies for the greetings include the Layering Circles, Tasteful Labels & Beautiful Shapes.   

    Here's the Flowering Tulips bundle:

  • How to achieve the Inked Block Technique; you only need 3 things!


    I shared the Inked Block technique on Tuesday's Facebook Live video.  It's fun, easy and you need just 3 things!

    I chose to feature the Garden Wishes stamp set & a variety of colors. This first one is Highland Heather, Gorgeous Grape & Pacific Point. 

    You need a clear block, Stampin' Write markers and a spritzer filled with water.  Below are the measurements for the cards. 

    Watch the video here to see how it's done.  It's the first of 3 projects I share.   

    Tips for success:

    • Use Stampin' Write 'water based' markers on your block; do not use Blends which are permanent markers.
    • Start with the lightest color first so you don't get a dark color on your marker tip
    • After filling up the block with ink (I colored on the diagonal) spritz it with water until dots form. 
    • The more water you add the better the inks blend.  But don't do too much or the colors blend too much. 
    • Press the block directly on your White card stock and hold for a few second. 
    • Have a tissue or paper towel ready to dab up excess water off the paper. 

    The Stampin' Write markers I used on this next card are Granny Apple Green, Coastal Cabana and Pacific Point.

    The card below has a softer feel.  The colors are Pale Papaya, Pumpkin Pie & Polished Pink. 

    Which one is your favorite?
