Cutest Crew card swap

March 26, 2026

Here’s the card I made for our latest Team card swap. What do you think of the color combo?

As you can see, I used the Cutest Crew bundle here. I’m a cat owner so I chose the cats. My colors include Crushed Curry, Smoky Slate, White and Basic Gray.

This adorable bundle is in our Online store and was available last week but now the dies are out of stock again. I have a feeling this is how it will be for awhile. We all love our pets! You can see the Cutest Crew bundle here or the stamp set alone here. *Be sure to add your email to the product page so you get notified when it’s back in stock.

The largest card base is Crushed Curry and the next layer is Smoky Slate which is the part that opens.

I colored in the images with Blends markers. It was fun to color them in cat like patterns.

Thanks for stopping in today! I hope you like my cards.

Vertical Slider card – a neat and easy fun fold with video

November 30, 2022
Tomorrow on December 1st there are two wonderful things happening; deals you won't want to miss!

There will be a Clearance Rack refresh AND the Last Chance list starts too. BOTH of these will have numerous products discounted up to 60%.

I'm not sure what will be on the Clearance Rack but I do know what's on the Last chance list. Download 2022 Holiday Catalog Last Chance here

Go here to see them all Thursday, December 1st.

I am loving this Vertical slider fun fold design! I've made two so far and I can easily see me making more.

It basically a gatefold card but the additional layer holds it closed.

I chose quite unique colors for the Scottie dog. Think of it as a stuffed animal; ha! The colors include Pool Party, Petal Pink and Pumpkin Pie. I wanted to use the Metallic & Shimmer 6 X 6" DSP; I think it's perfect for a celebratory card with the shimmer & dots.

The Scottie Dog punch is 30% off starting December 1st; instead of $19, it will be $13.30!

For the inside I used the ribbon image from the Christmas Scottie stamp set and the greeting is from Charming Sentiments.

The main element comes off when you open the card; plus it slides up and down too. It consists of three 2 1/4" circles. 2 are scored in half and adhered to the back of the main element. Then the last one is adhered over both folded circles.

What do you think? Do the colors work for you?

Measurements:
- Petal Party card base 5 1/2" X 8 1/2" scored at 2 1/8" from each end
- White 2 5/8" square
- Pumpkin 2 3/4" square
- Pool Party 2 7/8" square
- DSP 1 7/8" X 5 1/4"
In the video below I share another version of this Vertical Slider card; plus another special fold and easy treat bags.

Leaves of Holly card with a gift card option & video

November 29, 2022

We made this pretty Christmas card at my November Card Clubs. It features the Leaves of Holly bundle seen here.

I chose these colors – Evening Evergreen, Real Red, White & Soft Succulent. I sure love the dies in this set; the greeting label with the attached holly leaves is special.

*Unfortunately the Holly Berry dies are unavailable right now; they expect they'll be back in stock around December 19th.

I think this is a classic Christmas bundle you'd find yourself using often. It's retiring on December 1st and while supplies last.

I gave my gals a choice of 'berry' options. On the left card below we added two die-cuts from the bundle. On the right card we added a Textural Element that is colored with Blends markers. It was almost a tie on which option they chose.

I stamped the two more open leave images 2-3 times each in the two green colors and added the greeting element over them. You can see how in the video below. It's actually an easy card to make.

If you want to add an easy gift card option to any card simply add a strip of DSP across the bottom of the inside. Punch the center with any circle or decorative punch and aAttach it with glue on the outer and lower edges only.

Click here to watch it or on the photo below. There's a special wiper fun fold card shown too!
