Pretty card with a unique layout and new Spring Catalog products

December 30, 2025

Here’s the second card I shared on last week’s video. It features new product from the upcoming 2026 Spring catalog:

Isn’t it pretty? My colors include Pecan Pie with Basic Beige and a small strip of the Nature’s Walk designer series paper.

The stamp & dies bundle is called Nature’s Symphony. The textured triangle is the new Stone & Vine 3D embossing folder. The greeting is from the new Prayer’s & Promises stamp set – it’s a wonderful new set for sympathy or thinking of you greetings. The greeting is the Labeled with Love punch seen here.

I’ll be sharing lots more new product in the next few weeks. In fact, in my weekly Live video today at 11 am CT I’ll share ALL of the new products I pre-ordered from both the 2026 Spring catalog and the newest Online Exclusives too. Join me here! Don’t forget to follow me so you’ll be notified with I go Live.

This layout is simply one extra ‘diagonal half’ of a 5 1/2″ X 4 1/4″ piece of card stock added to the card front. Easy but has a unique look to it. This could be designer paper or card stock like I did here.

Below is the video tutorial I shared last week. It includes a second fun fold card as well.

Honey Bee with Golden Honey Designer Paper

January 28, 2020
I know some people do not like yellow but I always have. When I was young I chose to a yellow and orange them for my bedroom! (The walls were yellow and the only orange were in accents so it wasn't too garish!)

When yellow is paired with Black and White it's a happy and striking color combination in my opinion!

Here I used Daffodil Delight with the pretty Golden Honey Designer series paper. It's one of the free choices during our Sale-a-Bration promotion. I was thrilled to see another black and white designer paper in the offering this year! You can pair it with just about any color! It also has gold foil accents on many of the sheets. click here to see it.

My gals made this card at my New Catalog Stamp a Stack this last Saturday. The new Honey Bee bundle coordinates with this paper beautifully.

Measurements:
- Daffodil Delight main card – 5 ½” X 8 ½” scored at 4 ¼”
- Black 3 5/8” X 4 ¾”
- White scrap for hive and for ‘thank you’ greeting
- Golden Honey left is 2 ½”X 3 ¼”, right is 2” X 3 ¼”

Fun Latch Fold card with Music From the Heart

January 27, 2020
I had to use my friend Dawn Olchefske's new stamp set for January club. It's the set she designed for her million dollars in sales achievement! It's a fabulous music themed set called Music From the Heart. Look!

Look at this fun latch fold card!

The Classic Label punch is perfect to create the 'latch' for this card closure. We did have to widen the opening a bit by punching off to the side an extra 1/4" on each side as I wanted a larger front layer than the punch allows for. If you watch the video below you'll see what I am referring to.

I decided to offer a choice of card themes for my gals; Valentines, Anniversary and Birthday. I used the Heart to Heart set for the Valentine's greeting. This pretty foiled paper is called From the Heart specialty designer paper. You can see it here.

Did you know that you can 'play or stamp' Happy Birthday with the individual notes in this set? Isn't that the best idea ever?! Although creating a 'guitar' from two stamps in this set is even more clever! If you have a musical person in your life you need this set!

Be sure to watch my video to see how to make this fun fold card. It's amazingly easy!

Measurements:
- Real Red 4 1/4" X 8 3/4" scored at 5 1/2"
  White inside 4" X 5 1/4", front and inside flaps 2" X 3 3/4"
  Black 2 1/4" X 8" scored at 4"
  From My Heart Specialty DSP 3" X 4"

Sponge Brayer on an embossing folder? Cool effect!

January 24, 2020
Have you ever used a sponge brayer? Did you even know we carry them? We do! On page 181 of the annual catalog. Click here to see them.

I used Pool Party ink and the sponge brayer to add ink to the flat side of the Parisian Flourish embossing folder seen here. Then I inserted my card stock or envelope flap into the folder and ran it through the machine. Super easy! Then just rinse the ink off your embossing folder when you're done. Our ink colors are water based so it comes off easily.

Click below to watch the video; it's at the end of this one below:

I used another 'stitched heart' on the front of this card using the Heart Doilies seen here. The few die-cuts are from the Stitched Be Mine set of dies in the annual catalog. See those here.

I shared how to do this stitched heart doily in a previous FB live video. Click here to see it. It took me about 8 minutes to stitch and I do NOT stitch by hand much at all. Maybe once a year. That should tell you it's easy!
