Velvet Meadow gatefold card with video & free project sheet
This is another card we made at my July card clubs. It features the Velvet Meadow specialty DSP seen here.
It’s a simple gatefold card. I matched most of the DSP so it created a full panel on the front. This DSP has fussy or flocked areas on it. It does feel velvety!
I also used the new Exciting Times punch bundle for the center. You can see it here.
Here’s what the inside looks like. I added a strip of the DSP along with the white for stamping and signing. Then added a skinny divider of Bubble Bath for a little accent color.
My colors include Berry Burst, Bubble Bath and Peaceful Pine.
I created a free project sheet for this card; click here to download or print it. Remember it’s a great idea to save these on your computer for easy access.
The video tutorial for this card and one more neat fun fold is below. Thanks for popping in today!

Today's project was inspired by my Team member Candace who made this cool fun fold card for a recent swap.
Isn't it neat! She featured the Beary Cute bundle on her card in Lost Lagoon, Smoky Slate & Pretty Peacock.
My favorite part of her card is that it's quite easy to make! I knew my followers would like to know how to make it so I shared it on a recent video (seen below).
I used similar colors but chose the Magical Meadow stamp set & the Abundant Beauty Decorative Masks seen here.
I used a blending brush, Lost Lagoon ink and the snowflake mask to create my card front. After adding the pretty snowflakes I textured it with the Snowflake Sky 3D embossing folder.
It's a mini slim line card; the finished size is 3" X 5 1/2". I just love the fun of the popped up panels inside!

I shared this card on last week's Live video. It features the So Very Merry stamp set and the Snowflake Magic designer paper.
I made a bunch of these cards for our Flowerbug's October Christmas card swap. You might wonder how I achieved the starburst effect with the Snowflake Magic designer paper. Keep reading plus watch the video seen here or below!
Other products used:
Vellum card stock, Gold Foil paper, Deckled circle dies, Stylish Shapes dies, Blends markers for coloring & Gold heat embossing.
Here's what the inside looks like. Make note of the little designer paper triangles inside; remember this when you see the cutting templates below.
My friend Lyssa Zwolenek inspired these cards and created the template too. She is super creative and so great about sharing ideas!
Below are a few cutting templates for you.
Watch the video hereor below to see how this is done.
Directions:
You'll start out with a 6" square of designer paper.
First cut is at 2". You're left with a 4" X 6" piece on the right.
Cut the 2" strip into a 2" X 4" piece, leaving you with a 2" square.
Next cut the 4" X 6" piece on the right into three 2" X 4" pieces.
See this gorgeous Snowflake Magic specialty paper here.
Now you'll cut each 2" X 4" strip into two pieces by cutting it in half on the diagonal.
Be sure you cut each one in the same direction.
Cut the 2" square in half on the diagonal and then cut each triangle in half. These pieces are used on the inside of the card.
You'll use 4 of the large pieces and two small triangles on each card.

Beautiful cards made with the Rustic Christmas Countdown kit!
I created these pretty cards with the Rustic Christmas Countdown kit. It's meant to be used as an advent calendar but I thought they'd make great Christmas cards.
I will not be surprised if this kit sells out soon. It's gorgeous! The envelopes for the advent calendar are approximately 3" X 4"; a good size to add a treat inside.
I added Mossy Meadow & Cherry Cobbler card bases, some textured strips of the same colors and a few greetings.
The greetings mostly cover up the numbers printed on the wood & gold paper elements in the kit.
For greetings I used the Brightest Glow (annual catalog) and Beary Cute (Holiday catalog) along with circle punches and Tailored Tags dies.
We made these projects at my October Flowerbug's Team meeting. So pretty but super easy!
You could make up to 25 cards using this kit just by adding card bases, a few layers and greetings. The red adhesive-backed sequins, Dimensionals, Cherry Cobbler and craft twine all comes in the kit.
See this kit here online. Our Christmas kits can sell out quick; so don't wait too long. You never know if it will be back in time for Christmas.
The kits is gorgeous as an advent project as well! It also includes the cutest clothespins to close the envelopes.
