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.

One Sheet Purse mini album; Double free Sale-a-Bration choices ends tomorrow!

March 30, 2020
Here's a cute one sheet mini album you can make with one 12 X 12" designer paper sheet. I made it during a recent Facebook Live. See the video here.

I chose to use the Pleased as Punch Designer Series paper. It coordinates with four of our current punches; the Umbrella, Tulip, Small Blooms and Heart punch pack. This paper is only available through March! See it here and get it while you can.

The finished size is about 4" X 3". You can add photos anywhere including inside the pockets.

I used the Under My Umbrella bundle (seen here) and the Small Blooms punch for the flowers. I rounded the corners with the Detailed Trio punch.

Measurements:
- Start with an 8 X 12" sheet of paper
- Score it at 4" on one side horizontally (Be aware of the direction of your paper!)
- Rotate the paper and score it at 3", 6" and 9". Cut up to the score line. (See video; it starts about 19 minutes in.)
- The cover/wrap is 4" X 8 1/2"
