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.

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!

  • NEAT Center Pop-up Fun Fold card with video & free project sheet


    I hope you're enjoying your holiday weekend.  We are having a quiet one at home, getting yard work done and also enjoying time off together. We've had lovely rain lately. The grass is green and I hope my garden takes off once the weather warms up a bit. 

    On last week's Live I made a super neat fun fold card.  This photo shows the card front which starts out as a gatefold card. 

    I chose the Wildflower Designs bundle because it seems to have everything I like in a bundle – florals & botanicals, lovely greetings and wonderful dies too.  

    The designer paper is the Country Woods seen here.  It's currently unavailable as they ran out of stock. But it should be back within a week or so.  That pretty die-cut circle is from the Spotlight on Nature dies seen here.  Love these dies so much! 

    Here's what it look like open: 

    I was inspired by two of my team members to try this fun fold card layout.  I thought it looked quite complicated but they assured me it wasn't.  They were right!  It was just a few extra score and cut lines. I hope you'll watch the video below to see how it's done.  

    The center dies are included in the Wildflower Designs bundle seen here.  All of these patterns are included in the Country Woods designer series paper pack. No wonder it's already sold out!  

     

    Compare these cards; I changed both the front and the inside.

  • Last set of swaps made by my Team using the new In Colors


    Here are the last of this month's Team swaps:

    Mary made this pretty card using two new In Colors – Petunia Pop & Summer Splash.

    She used the new Unbounded Love bundle and the Unbounded Beauty designer paper.  The bundle is not available right now and the DSP is in low inventory. Popular items for sure!! The embossing folder is Distress Tile 3D. 

    Measurements:

    • White card base 5 1/2" X 8 1/2" score/fold at 4 1/4".
    • Petunia Pop 5 1/4" X 4" & 3 1/2" X 2 3/4"
    • Summer Splash 5" X 3 3/4"
    • DSP 3 1/4" X 2 1/2" 

    Rita made this cute card with the 2024-26 In Color designer paper. 

    Her card base is White as is her textured layer although it's hard to see here.  She added a Nested Essentials DSP die-cut vertically that adds some fun interest to the card.  

    ~~~

    Lastly is Paula's pretty card; she used the same colors and designer papers as Mary's card above. Petunia Pop is beautiful with Summer Splash. 

    She used the Unbounded Beauty suite here; see it on page 54 of your new Annual catalog. It starts out as a center gate-fold card but turns into so much more when you open it!  

    It's a center fold pop up card!  I was amazed by it and thought it looked super hard to make.  She assured me it wasn't so I took on the challenge and made one on my Tuesday Live video seen here.  

    Isn't this an amazing card?  It looks so challenging to make! 

    I'm not going to share measurements for this card today since it's very similar to the card I shared on the Tuesday video.  I will post the video & free project sheet for my card on Monday.

    Thank you so much for the inspiration & encouragement Paula.  You were right; this card was easier than I thought!

  • Neat card layouts you’ll love on these Team swaps!


    Today I'm sharing more of our Team swaps from our latest gathering.  

    First up is Tracey's swap featuring the Full of Life designer paper.

    This pack of paper is filled with bold patterns and bright colors; see it here.  She layered 3 pieces of designer paper with Berry Burst card stock. The greeting is heat embossed on the back side of one of these patterns.  

    The butterflies are from the Paper Butterfly Accents seen here. They are available in the online store now. 

    Measurements:

    • White card base 5 1/2" X 8 1/2" score/fold at 4 1/4"
    • DSP – largest 4 1/2" X 3", tall 2" X 4", 2" square
    • cardstock layers – largest 4 3/4" X 3 1/3", tall 2 1/4" X 4 1/4", 2 1/4" square
    • Greeting is 3/4" X 2 3/4" (used the Happy Labels Pick a Punch on the ends) 

    Next is a beautiful card made by Ginny; she chose the incredible Thoughtful Journey designer paper (out of stock & unavailable until the week of May 27th).

    I shared another version of this card here last week.  

    To make this card you need just a few pieces of paper to start with, plus your greeting. 

    • Card base 5 1/2" X 8 1/2" score/fold at 4 1/4"
    • DSP 3 1/2" square – cut from the left side at 1/2", 3/4", 1" and 1 1/4"
    • Misty Moonlight card stock is 4 1/4" X 3" 

    Next is a soft & pretty card made by Jonna. She chose to feature the Cheerful Daisy stamp set & coordinating dies seen on page 75 of the Annual Catalog. 


    Her fresh color combination is Lemon Lolly with Soft Sea Foam. She added this pretty soft yellow ink to the daisy centers and layered the dies so nicely they look super realistic!  The embossing folder is the Exposed Brick 3D which is currently out of stock; but it will be back! 

    Measurements:

    • Card base 5 1/2" X 8 1/2" score/fold at 4 1/4", upper layer is 5" X 2 1/4"
    • Lemon Lolly layer 5 1/4" X 4"
    • White textured is 5" X 3 3/4", stamped White is 5" X 2"

    I'll be back with more swaps tomorrow!
