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.

Dainty Delight swap with a few new colors!

April 25, 2023
Here's my swap for our Flowerbug's 'Fancy Border' theme. I chose to use the returning color 'Berry Burst' with Black & White.

The embossing folder is called Painted Texture 3D; you can see it here.

Tip: Need thread or twine to add to your card? I used thread from our White 3/4" Frayed Ribbon under my greeting. I simply pulled one thread from the ribbon end, smoothed it out with my fingers, and would it into a circle.

The flower & leaves die-cuts are from the Dainty Delight bundle; as well as the pretty greeting. See it here. The stamp set & dies are carrying over into the new Annual Catalog however they will no longer be a bundle at 10% off.

I used two NEW products on this card. Can you spot them?

New items:
1. A few flowers are in one of our newest In Colors – Moody Mauve.
2. The greeting die-cut is from the new Timeless Arrangements.
See the Basic Border dies here: I love these dies; they're so versatile. I'm so glad they are carrying over into the new Annual catalog.

Two pretty ‘Fancy Border’ card swaps by my Flowerbugs

April 24, 2023

Here are the last two swap cards made by my Flowerbug's Team for our 'Fancy Borders' swap in April.

This first card was made by Sharon. She used the Textured Chic DSP (retired/sold out) and the Around the Bend bundle seen here.

Love the multiple curvy scalloped borders!! Her colors include Petal Pink, Soft Succulent and Calypso Coral. She also used the Two-Tone Flora bundle seen here. This is returning in the new catalog but it will no longer be a bundle at 10% off.

Next is a white on white card made by Ginny. What an elegant card!

She used the Fern 3D folder and two sets of dies – Border Basics and Stylish Shapes. Simple & gorgeous.

See the Basic Border dies here: I love these dies; they're so versatile. I'm so glad they are carrying over into the new Annual catalog.

Two more ideas with the Border Basics dies

April 21, 2023

Continuing on to share team swaps featuring fancy borders here is a unique card made by Paula. I would never have thought of this!

She used the Abigail Rose Designer Paper for her card front and the Basic Border dies for her lower edge. The retiring Harvest dies seen here(discounted to $15.20 from $38) are the flowers on the front. She cut the front flap with the dies as well as the back card base! So cool!

The front flap is 2 5/8" wide. Her card stock is Crumb Cake. Love the brass butterflies inside!

Next is a pretty card made by Mary using the Sending Smiles bundle. The stamp set & dies are carrying over into the new Annual catalog but they will no longer be a bundle at 10% off.

She used the same exact die as Paula did above; the Basic Border dies are wonderful!

Her colors include Fresh Freesia, Navy, Granny Apple Green and Daffodil Delight. She also used the pretty Brass Butterflies on her card front.

The Designer Paper is the Hues of Happiness DSP from the Annual Catalog but it's sold out now.
