Card ideas for the Box & Cards; free project sheet with video tutorial


I shared this beautiful box with cards on yesterday’s blog post. You’ll see it in the video and project sheet below too. Today I’ll focus on the cards included in the pretty box.

The featured products include the Lovely Blossoms suite. This card box can fit up to 6 cards with envelopes inside. It’s super easy to make too! It’s included in the free project sheet seen below.

For these cards I used the Lovely Arrangements bundle seen here. And the Lovely Blossoms designer series paper seen here.

This first card is a fun fold card; quite unique!

It doesn’t look much different from the front. The colors include Cloud Cover, Secret Sea, Old Olive & White. Here’s a photo of it open:

The White inside layer has two extra folds in it. There’s a narrow flap adhered to the card front that let’s it open in an unusual way. The measurements are in the free project sheet below.

This next card is deceptively simple; but I added a simple trick to layering the DSP on the front:

The main image is from the Lovely Blossoms DSP. This DSP includes multiple printed elements perfect to make the focus of the card. It’s the printed Olive DSP under it I want to call your attention to. Both pieces measure 3″ X 4″. I cut the Olive DSP in half on the diagonal and added that as a layer to the flower layer. Quick and easy but unique. Instead of the traditional even layers this adds interest to your card.

Lastly is a card that shows off a special die-cut in the Lovely Arrangements bundle:

It’s Petal Pink with Secret Sea and White. That multiple circles die is so cool! It truly adds some playfulness to the card. The greeting is stamped on a circle die-cut from the Spotlight on Nature dies seen here.

My free project sheet includes these 3 cards plus the template and instructions for the card box as well. Click here to download or print it.

Below is the video tutorial for the box and tips on assembling the fun fold card at the top. Don’t forget to follow me on my YouTube Channel here or my Facebook Page here.

  • Simple fun fold card with Wildflower Designs with video & free project sheet


    I shared two cards featuring the Wildflower Designs bundle in last week's video. Here's one of them: 

    Can you see the simple but different card layout here? The back of the card is a full 4 1/4" X 5 1/2" layer. The Lost Lagoon folded card is 8" X 5 1/4" scored at 4".  So easy but unique too.

    I wanted to use Pretty in Pink with a current color and chose Lost Lagoon to pair with it.  I think they work beautifully together. 

    What do you think of the new Dashing Designs embossing folder? I love it! 

    The Wildflower Designs bundle can be seen here.  I love the stamp set a lot but the dies won me over. There's so many possibilities with them! 

    I made the card on the right below first.  Then tried it again for the left card.  Can you spot the difference?  

    When I made this card for our Team swap my first one did not include the frame.  Otherwise they're the same. Which do you prefer? 

    Watch the video below; it's the first project I share.

  • 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.

    Watch the video below; it's the second project I share. I'll share the first card in a day or two.

  • 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!
