Pretty Bridge fold card with Snowflake Kisses with free project sheet & video tutorial

December 23, 2025

I shared this pretty card on last week’s Live video. It features the Elegant Pine Snowflake designer paper and the Snowflake Kisses bundle.

My colors include Pretty Peacock, White & Lost Lagoon above. The Elegant Pine Snowflake designer paper is beautiful and can be seen here.

I created a second card with Secret Sea as the card base instead of Pretty Peacock. Which do you prefer?

This card is a bridge fun fold layout. It starts out with a 5 1/2″ X 8 1/2″ card base but requires two extra cuts from the center score line down 1 1/8″ from each edge. It’s easy with our Paper Trimmer. Watch the video below to see how it’s done.

I created a free project sheet for you with photos and measurements. Click here to print or download it.

I hope you try one. If you haven’t made one before please watch the video below. They are quite fun to make & open!

The photo below shows the card closed, the main panel lifted and the inside! Tip: We used a handmade stencil to sponge snowflakes on the inside. *cut snowflakes from a piece of card stock and sponge or blend ink through the windows.

Below is the video tutorial which includes a second card with this bundle. I hope you watch it! Don’t forget to subscribe to my YouTube channel here.

Easy stack & cut layout with Regal Winter with free project sheet & video

September 9, 2024

This is one of the cards I shared on last week's Live video. I chose to feature the beautiful Regal Winter suite seen here. It's new from our 2024 Holiday catalog by Stampin' Up!

Isn't the color combination pretty? It's Blueberry Bushel with Wild Wheat & White. It's interesting that I chose the color combo from the pretty Regal Winter designer series paper but afterwards I realized they are complimentary colors. Check out pages 132-133 in the 2024-25 Annual Catalog. Blues & purple are complimentary colors with yellow hues. I explain how to do this this in my video seen here.

If you have trouble combining colors together start with two main colors. Using our designer papers as a starting point can make it quite easy. I tend to grab the card stock and hold them next to each other. I can usually tell if they work well. But if you can't try using our color wheel information on the pages above.

Isn't that double die-cut pretty? It comes as one die but cuts the main and the outer frame all at once. Click here to see the Regal Flora bundle and here for the Regal Winter designer paper.

I stamped the leaf image in Wild Wheat and the blue flower is stamped & die-cut. Next I colored the white areas with a Wild Wheat Blends marker. Love the golden highlights!

How did I cut the three pieces of designer paper for this card? I explain in the video below and in the tutorial above. But basically you stack 3 pieces of designer paper measuring 3 3/4" X 5" and cut into 3 pieces. It's incredibly gorgeous designer paper!

As long as you cut them all together it does not matter where your cuts are. You'll get 3 card fronts from the pieces you'll get. These are layered onto another 4" X 5 1/4" piece of card stock.

Below is the video tutorial for this and one other card. I hope you watch it AND follow me on my YouTube channel too!

Holiday Catalog Launch Party with lots of new product displays

September 7, 2024

My new Holiday Catalog open house event went wonderfully on Wednesday; it was a big smash with lots of people attending. I was ready with fabulous displays and yummy food. Of course I forgot to take photos of the food but I did remember to grab some of the displays.

First is the Splendid Autumn display:

I also included swaps from the Caring Leaves stamp set in the upper left.

I made samples of some of the die-cuts I have to help showcase how they can be used.

Next is my Regal Winter display:

I shared a few of these cards on last week's Live video which you can here and another one here.

Next is the Nest of Winter suite which is filled with wood grains, birds and nature.

I shared some of these cards in this video seen here.

I created a sample for the dies in this suite too. I should have colored them in but I didn't take the time.

I'll share more soon!
