All Aflutter envelope-flap style card with free project sheet & video

June 22, 2026

This neat fun fold card was created for my June card clubs. I call it an envelope flap closure.

My colors include Darling Duckling, Blueberry Bushel with White. Wonderfully bright for summer! I used quite a few products here so I’ll list them for you.

All Aflutter stamp and dies bundle seen here
Darling Duckling 12 X 12″ Two-toned card stock
Irresistible specialty designer paper seen here
Lazy Daisy & Floral Spray 3D embossing folders
1 3/4″ and 2″ circle punches
Blending Brushes
a sanding block

The Irresistible designer paper is cut into a 3 3/4″ square and scored in the center diagonally. It’s adhered to the back of the Blueberry Bushel card base before that is adhered to the larger Darling Duckling CS.

There are three patterns in this specialty Irresistible designer paper you can see here. When you add ink to this specialty paper it reveals the white shiny pattern.

You can see the two patterns I used on my card here.

And here’s the other version. Note both the blue Irresistible patterns and the embossing folders.

After we textured the 2-toned Darling Duckling card stock we sanded it with a sanding block (from my husband’s shop) to reveal more of the White core.

You can see the All Aflutter bundle here. I love having butterfly images with a coordinating punch! See it here.

I created a free project sheet for this card with measurements, photos and supplies list. Click here to see it.

Below is the video tutorial for this card and one other made with the cute All Aflutter bundle.

I’ll share the second card with the free project sheet tomorrow.

Make a Pig with the Cutest Cow bundle! Video & free project sheet too.

February 27, 2024

We have just 3 days left of Sale-a-Bration! Did you get everything you wanted – for Free?!

~~~

During last week's video I shared how to create a pig with the Cow Builder punch. She's super adorable!

I shared a cute cow card on yesterday's post; see it here. This Cutest Cow bundle is in our Spring catalog and is back & available. It was out of stock for a week or so.

You might wonder how I made the grass. It's from the Garden Meadow dies seen here. Same with the fence! There is a stamp set with these dies too.

My colors are Balmy Blue, Bubble Bath & Granny Apple Green. I made the cloudy sky with the Border Basics dies and a Blending Brush. Watch the video here to see how I put this scene together and how I made the adorable pig.

Cutest Cows card with video tutorial & FREE project sheet!

February 26, 2024

There are just 4 days left of Sale-a-Bration! The free goodies end Thursday!

~~~

I shared this cute card on last week's video. We made it at my February Card Clubs.

Isn't it adorable? My colors include Black, White, Pool Party & Old Olive. The Cutest Cows bundle can be seen here.

Instead of using the image that fits the Cow Builder punch for the front we punched the head and body from White card stock and colored in Black spots. We did use the nose/mouth and eyes/eyebrows images though.

You can download & print the free project sheet by clicking here: Download Feb 24 Cutest Cows Club

The grass is from the Garden Meadow dies seen here. The cloud DSP is from the Sunny Days Sale-a-Bration paper and the striped paper is the Rock & Roll DSP in the Spring catalog.

Check out the inside:

I love the greetings in this bundle that work so perfectly with the cow. 'Milk it for all it's worth!'

Click here or on the photo below to watch the video. I share this plus two more cards using this adorable punch bundle. And they're not just cows!

Quiet Reflection and Delightful Floral Fancy Fold card swaps with measurements!

February 23, 2024
Today I'm sharing the last of our Team fun fold swaps. I'm adding measurements for each of them. If you've missed the previous posts please click on the title of this post and scroll to see each one.

The first card was made by Candy. She made a simple fold back card that is so easy but so pretty!

She is featuring the Quiet Reflection stamp set seen here. Her samples and the next one sold me on this set. I love that it's a monochromatic card – it's totally fitting for this set.

Product used: Deckled Rectangles, Softly Sophisticated stamps & embossing folder (SAB), Gold & Vanilla 3/8" satin edges ribbon

Measurements:
- Misty Moonlight card base 8 1/2" X 5 1/2" score at 2 1/8" & 4 1/4"
- Vanilla 1 7/8" X 5 1/4" textured layer, inside is 4" X 5 1/4", die-cut is 2 1/4" X 3 1/2"
- Misty Moonlight die-cut is 2 1/2" X 3 7/8"
~~~

Karen made this next card using the same Quiet Reflection stamp set. Her beautiful card is also monochromatic; using Pebbled Path with Vanilla.

The front layer opens to reveal a second inside layer that opens. Quite unique and actually easy to make too.

Measurements:
- Pebbled Path card base 6 1/4" X 5 1/2" score at 4 1/4", front layer 2 3/4" X 3 3/4", inside is 2 7/8" X 3 3/4"
- Vanilla front is 2 1/2" X 3 1/2", inside is 7 3/4" X 4 3/4" score at 3 7/8", greeting strip is 3 1/2" X 1/2"
- DSP 2" X 5 1/2"
~~~

Paula made this beautiful card with a few of our Online Exclusive products. We have sooo many now & more coming in March! Check them all out here; I know you'll see a few new things!

The designer paper is the Delightful Floral seen here. She used the pretty Translucent Floral bundle for her greetings and die-cuts. See it here.

Measurements:
- Parakeet Party card base 11" X 5 1/4" score at 4" & 5 3/4" for the right two score lines. From the left score down at 1 3/4" to the 1 1/4" mark from the top and up from the bottom. Move over to the 3 1/2" mark (from the left) and do this again. Now you'll cut across from the first score line to the 5 1/4" score line and cut across.
- Mossy Meadow 2 1/2" square, 1 1/2" X 2 1/2", plus the back card base of 4 1/4" X 5 1/2"
- White inside is 3 3/4" X 5", 2 1/4" square and 1 1/4" X 2 1/4"
- Vellum, DSP & black pieces for flowers & leaves *she colored her vellum
- DSP – 2 pieces 1 1/2" X 5 1/4", 4 pieces 1 1/2" X 1"
It's quite the special card isn't it? It's called a side shutter card and was cased from Wendy Cranford. This paper and bundle are definitely my style.

I hope you've enjoyed our many samples of fancy fold cards this past week. My Flowerbug's are the best!
