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.

Get inspired by these Christmas card swaps by my Flowerbug’s

October 17, 2023
I'm sharing three more of my Flowerbug's Team Christmas card swaps today! I know you'll be inspired by one or more of them.

First is a beautiful card made by Karen. She chose the Regal Reindeer bundle from the Annual catalog.

She paired it with the pretty O Holy Night designer paper from the Holiday catalog. What a beautiful scene she created!! See the Regal Reindeer stamp set here and the coordinating Reindeer dies here.

Next is an elegant card made by Ginny who featured the Christmas Classic bundle from the Holiday catalog.

She added a 2 3/4" square of the Joy of Christmas designer paper on the upper right and textured the entire White panel with the Christmas Tidings embossing folder seen here. I love these layered die-cuts! See this bundle here. It's one of my favorites in the Holiday cataog.

Here's the inside view of her card:

Paula also used the Christmas Classics bundle on her card:

Other products include:
- Garden Walk 6 X 6"designer paper from the Holiday catalog (2 pieces at 5 1/4" X 2")

Gorgeous Night Divine Fun fold card

October 16, 2023
We held our monthly Team swap this weekend and I'm thrilled to share the cards with you! Our themed was Christmas cards.

First is this stunning card made by Roxann:

She chose the Night Divine bundle seen here. Unfortunately I noticed the stamp set is out of stock now; it should be back in a few weeks. She also used the O Holy Night designer paper seen here.

Here's the bundle: such beautiful greetings and the dies…!!

You can see her fun fold a little better in this image below:

Measurements:
- Night of Navy card base 5 1/2" X 8" score at 1", 2" and 5", panel under greeting is 1 7/8" square
- left vertical piece 3 1/4" X 5 1/2" score at 4"
- Vanilla inside front and back are 5 1/4" X 2 3/4", greeting 1 3/4" square
- Designer paper 5 1/5" X 7/8" strip on lower front, 3 1/8" X 1 3/4" panel under nativity, sky is 3 1/8" X 2 1/2"
Here's the back side; she textured it with the Stars at Night embossing folder and added a donkey die-cut.

The O Holy Night designer paper has been in and out of stock the past month of so. It's currently back in stock!

Artist of the Month projects with the Bag of Bones suite!

October 13, 2023

Our Artist of the Month for September was Candy who chose the Bag of Bones bundle. She did an incredible job on her projects!

The suite is no longer available because the Glow in the Dark bats & ghosts have been discontinued. This means you can still get everything else individually.

First is a card showing off both the Bag of Bones bundle and the Them Bones designer paper.

She tore her paper and pieces it on her card base. Then she stamped the skeleton using Versmark onto Black card stock heat embossing it with White embossing powder. Love the boots and hat on him! The circles are die-cuts from the new Deckled Circle dies in the 2023 Holiday catalog.

Here's the Them Bones designer paper:

Next is a neat monochromatic card in Basic Gray and Gray Granite. She stamped the background with the skeleton bones!

The tombstone, fence, bats, cat and dog are all die-cuts from the Bag of Bones bundle. The dog and cat are stamped on our Glow in the Dark specialty paper. You must use Stazon in for this or it may run. She sponged on gray ink onto the tombstone and fence for a 'spooky' look.

Next is a cute treat holder made with that same tombstone die-cut. She simply added a few strips of card stock inside the two die-cuts to create a pouch.

This card is so fun; she featured a panel from the Them Bones designer paper to show off the dancing skeleton. Love his suspenders, hat and bow tie!!

These skeletons are all heat embossed with White embossing powder onto Black card stock. You can see a few of the glow in the dark bats and ghosts here. Unfortunately they are sold out now and will not return.

Here's a slimline card showing off more of the Them Bones designer paper. Her colors are Basic Gray, Pumpkin Pie and Cajun Craze.

Isn't it cute how the skeleton on the bottom has his dog on a leash?!

This next card shows off a neat background effect. She used the Deckled Circle dies

The background is made by sponging on the houndstooth mask (Abundant Beauty decorative masks) then debossed it with the Distressed Tile embossing folder. She then dragged the Blackberry Bliss ink pad across it. Cool!

Didn't she create a fabulous group of projects. She truly showcased this Halloween suite wonderfully! Fantastic job Candy!!!
