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.

Timeless Arrangements with Countryside Inn DSP; all new!

April 28, 2023

I've been super busy prepping for my new catalog launch party tomorrow. If you're in or near Minot, ND please stop in at 1st Lutheran Church from 10-12:30 pm. There's lots to see!!

I always join a few online swaps so I can get great samples for my display boards. I made this pretty card for one of them.

I chose the Timeless Arrangements bundle and added squares of Countryside Inn designer series paper. I've used this layout before and thought it would work well with the dies in the Timeless Arrangements bundle.

Ad you can see on the dies shown below there are 4 different dies that they've added a long piece to; it's perfect to add to the stitched greeting dies for layering. And they're spaced differently so they layer perfectly with each other!

My colors are Balmy Blue, Night of Navy with a splash of Lemon Lime Twist. I'm so glad this happy color is back in our color line!

The new catalog goes live May 2nd; you can order from it then. In the meantime don't forget that you are welcome to pre-order either my In Color bundle (details here) or my new Designer Paper Share (details here).

In Color bundle special offer ends May 1st!

April 27, 2023

Each year with the new in colors release I offer my customers a special In Color Bundle. I include lots of items so you have perfectly coordinating products to create with.

I created these CUTE cards with all 5 new In Colors and the Crafting with You bundle.

I used many products that are included in my special bundle: card stock, ink, ribbons, dots and designer series paper. They're a great example of all you can create when your products coordinate so perfectly.

If you look closely you can see that I stamped a background in each color of ink using the new Cheerful Daisies stamp set.

Look at the die-cutting machine; it even has textured paper going through it! I did that by cutting a slit with my craft knife. The large white angled die-cut is made with the new Countryside Corners dies.

Everyone who pre-orders my In Color bundle will receive a free bonus of a ribbon share & In Color dots too!

In Colors include: Pebbled Path, Moody Mauve, Copper Clay, Boho Blue & Wild Wheat

Interested in the In Color bundle? There are three choices for you through May 1st:

Option 1: Get the 5 ink pads, 5 ink refills, 20 sheets 8 1/2" X 11" cardstock, 10 sheets new 6" In Color DSP and get the free ribbon share & in Color gems. $93 (*Long distance customers add $8.50 for Priority shipping for options 1 or 2)

Option 2: Get all of the In Color items above PLUS 5 new In Color Blends markers – pay for 4 and get 1 FREE. Cost $142 total

Option 3: Add on the new Designer Paper share to either option 1 or 2 – 80 sheets of 6 X 6" DSP. Cost is $28.50. *see photo below. *click here to order it separately.

*Long distance customers message me here if you'd like one of these options and I'll send you an invoice.

Here are another fabulous group of cards with these in colors, created by Sue Stampfield. She shared these cards in a swap group I'm in with her. She used the Circle Sayings bundle; another new product you can get on May 2nd! *or earlier if you are a Demonstrator

A NEW catalog bundle – Timeless Arrangements. And a NEW Designer Paper share too!

April 26, 2023

If you're near me in Minot, ND I hope you'll plan to come to my New Catalog Launch party on Saturday, April 29th. It's at 1st Lutheran Church from 10-12:30 pm.

I have been prepping and working hard on samples, displays, special offers and more. I love to spoil my customers with yummy treats too!

Would you like to receive every sheet of designer paper in the new Annual Catalog? I'm doing my usual designer paper share with the new catalog. It includes 12 different packs of NEW DSP.

Go here to sign up for your share. Or message me here with any questions you have. (Locals please message me to sign up)

Check out this pretty card made with a brand new bundle from the upcoming 2023 Annual Catalog by Stampin' Up!

It's called Timeless Arrangements and Demonstrators could pre-order it before the catalog launches on May 2nd for customers. It was one of my top choices; I've made at least 4 cards with it so far and will be sharing them with you in the next week.

My colors include Starry Sky, White and Fresh Freesia. I paired it with a new package of 6 X 6" designer paper called Bright & Beautiful.

Here's how I stamped the inside. I used two of the foliage images on one block and stamped them repeatedly in first and second generation.

I shared another version in my video yesterday; see it here. This card features Petal Pink with Starry Sky along with a bit of Calypso Coral. Which do you prefer?

click here or on the photo below to watch the video; it's the second project.
