Fun Folds – Flowerbugs Inkspot

Check out these Team Swaps featuring Specialty Paper – with measurements!

March 4, 2026

Our card swap theme for February was to feature our beautiful specialty papers. Today I’m sharing three of them with you.

First is a neat fun fold card by Karen. She chose the Lovely & Beautiful specialty DSP and her card shows off both sides wonderfully!

She also used the Three Banner bundle for her greeting. Love that saying! See this punch bundle here.
The stitched square die-cut from Stylish Shapes dies hides the inside panel perfectly.

Measurements are as follows:

Card base 5 1/2″ X 4 1/4″
White 5 1/4″ X 4″, inside is 2 3/4″ square
DSP 5″ X 6″ score at 2″ on the 6″ side
Calypso Coral square die-cut 2 3/4″

Next is Kim’s card who also chose to use the Lovely & Beautiful DSP. She heat embossed her greeting on Vellum!

Notice the brand new embossing folder – it’s called Lazy Daisy and coordinates great with the DSP she chose.

Measurements:

Card base 8 1/2″ X 5 1/2″ score at 4 1/4″, Olive layer 4 1/8″ X 5 3/8″
DSP 4″ X 2 1/4″
Fresh Freesia 4″ X 3″
Gold strip 4″ X 1/2″

Next is a neat shaker card made by Joan. She used the Good Luck stamp set.

Her colors are Shy Shamrock (of course!) and Shaded Spruce with Gold accents.

Measurements:

Shy Shamrock card base 8 1/2″ X 5 1/2″ score at 4 1/4″, top layer is 3 3/4″ X 5″
Shaded Spruce 4″ X 5 1/4″
circle window is 2 3/4″
White inside 3 1/2″ X 4 3/4″

I’ll share more Team swaps tomorrow.

April’s card kit to go

April 9, 2020
I chose to use the Well Dressed designer paper for my card kit to go this month. This paper is full of stylish images and soft florals.

This month's kit includes 4 unique fun-fold cards but you get two of each! Plus I added an adorable pre-cut bag filled with mini cards too! Look!

Each card is finished differently giving you lots of options! This kit to go includes $20 in product plus more!
- a full package of the 6 X 6" Best Dressed designer series paper seen here.
- 1 full spool of Mint 3/8" satin ribbon
- a full package of Pearl jewels
- a pdf tutorial for all 8 fun fold cards plus the purse and mini cards
- the pre-cut kit! It includes pre-cut, punched and die-cut pieces ready to stamp and assemble.
- You'll cut your own designer paper using the measurements in the tutorial.
I used the Dressed to Impress, Butterfly Gala and Peaceful Moments stamp sets to finish mine. In the tutorial I give you two examples of each card so you can make either or both. Add on either stamp set or bundle at a 10% discount!

You have two choices: get the pre-kit to go which includes the pdf tutorial. Or opt to purchase the pdf tutorial alone.

You can see and purchase both here on my Tutorial Shop. Be sure to opt in by Friday, April 17th!

Here are some comments from happy customers:
- Your directions are always so easy to follow and your projects are unique.
- Wow! That was slick! I’m sure I will be ordering more from you in the future.
- I absolutely LOVE your cards and can't wait to get my fingers inky!!
- I just received the March card kit and love it! Please sign me up for the monthly kits.
- LeeAnn, I purchased this class last Sunday. I made all the cards, and had a great time. I loved all the different folds and color choices. Thanks for making my week!

Music From the Heart; in a rainbow of colors!

April 8, 2020
I saw a card like this online made by Diane Barnes and had to make it for my friend Becky's workshop a few weeks ago. She loves color! It's made with the Music From the Heart stamp set seen here. It's just $17!

We stamped the treble clef multiple times and the greeting on a separate piece of White CS. Then we fussy cut the words apart and colored each one with a Blends marker.

The rainbow of sponged colors are done on another piece of card stock measuring 4 1/4" X 5 1/2"; the same size as the finished card. Our sponge daubers work perfectly here. It looks pretty messy but you are only seeing a 'peek' of in on the edge so it really doesn't matter much. It's the rainbow of colors you're wanting on the edge.

Measurements:
- White full card 5 1/2" X 8 1/2"
- White sponged layer is 4 1/4" X 5 1/2"
- White stamped layer is 3 3/4" X 5 1/2"
Details:
- Ink colors are Real Red, Pumpkin Pie, Daffodil Delight, Granny Apple Green, Pacific Point, Gorgeous Grape.
- Blends colors are Real Red, Pumpkin Pie, Daffodil Delight, Granny Apple Green, Light Navy, Dark Highland Heather

Did you want a Little Ladybug stamp set? Now you can get one; FREE!

April 7, 2020

The cute Little Ladybug stamp set from the Sale-a-Bration promotion was very popular; everyone wanted it! It was free with a $300 order but that was difficult for many people to achieve.

If you've been wishing and hoping for this set now you can get one; from me! I have 10 of them and the first 10 people to order over $100 online using this host code will get one. 49HFZ6G3 **I have 1 left as of April 10th.

**I suggest you consider getting any of the new Ornate Garden products OR get the retiring 2018-20 In Colors before they retire later this month. Everything goes fast once the retired list comes out!

Besides getting a free stamp set you'll also get a pre-cut cards kit and written tutorial! Here's one of the cards in the kit; it's a cute, interactive waterfall card.

Here's how it looks when you pull the ribbon; you get to see every ladybug. The card opens up also with more fun inside!

Everything is cut out and ready for you to stamp using your very own brand-new Little Ladybug stamp set!

The kits will go out mid-late April; as soon as the reserved sets are spoken for. If you're wondering if there's any left just send me an email at lagreff60@gmail.com to check.
