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.

What a Fun Sketch! Check out #CC 57 made with the pretty Favored Flowers DSP

January 30, 2023
We have 2-3 sketch or color challenges each month on our Flowerbug's Team. I decided to use the Favored Flowers Sale-a-Bration designer paper for my version.

I also used the Cane Weave 3D embossing folder and Happy Labels stamp set. Both are new in the Jan-June Spring catalog.

I love this sketch because it's simple and unique. A few rectangles and a strip of card stock are your starting point. Then add other elements as needed. My diagonal strip is going the opposite way but that's okay; sketches are a starting point that you can change as needed.

My measurements are:
- Petal Pink card base 5 1/2" X 8 1/2"
- DSP 2 3/4" X 4"
- Calypso Coral 2 1/2" X 4"
- Evergreen 1" X 5"
I did fussy cut a flower from the pretty Favored Flowers DSP. See it here.

This designer paper is free with any $50 purchase during our SAB (Sale-a-Bration) promotion through February 28th. But remember that it's while supplies last!

Sketches are a wonderful starting point to creating a card. I highly recommend them. You can find many on Pinterest; just search card sketches.

Paula made this cool card with the Dainty Delight bundle; she's so clever!

Her colors are Balmy Blue, Daffodil Delight & Night of Navy.

Details:
- She used the partial die-cut technique. She stamped & heat embossed the flower image first and then die-cut the layered edge to match before texturing it.
- That flowery DSP is the Regency Park paper in the 2023 Jan-April catalog.
- The texture is from the new Cane Weave 3D embossing folder seen here.
- Notice that little tiny daisy on the greeting banner? That's the new Loose Daisy Embellishments seen here. They are not adhesive-backed and can be added with a mini glue dot or a dot of glue. Each one has a little leaf on it!
Next is a pretty card by Karen featuring the Desert Details bundle and the Delicate Desert designer paper.

Her colors include Gray Granite & Calypso Coral with White & Gold. The greeting, pretty flowers and border die are all from that Desert Details bundle seen here.
- Card base 5 1/2" X 8 1/2"
- DSP 5 1/2" X 3 1/8"
- Calypso Coral 5 1/2" X 3 1/2"
- White 4 1/2" X 3/4"
Next is a special card made by Candace using the Lucky Clover bundle.

The Lucky Clover bundle is unfortunately out of stock and not returning. The Lucky Clover punch is now unavailable. I'm sorry if you had your eye on it! You can still get the Lucky Clover stamp set though.

She used 2 different greens for her clovers – Soft Sea Foam, Soft Succulent & Evening Evergreen. What you can't see in the photo is the scoring she did on her black background. She used the scoring board on the diagonal to add a scored texture. So cool!

Happy Chinese New Year; it’s the year of the Rabbit

January 26, 2023
Did you know that 2023 is the year of the rabbit? The sign of Rabbit is a symbol of longevity, peace, and prosperity in Chinese culture. 2023 is predicted to be a year of hope.

Look at this gorgeous card my team member Ginny made for a friend of hers:

She used quite a few new products on this beauty:
- Stamps – Decorative Borders seen here (2023 Spring Catalog)
- Paper – Gold foil & Real Red
- Other – Easter Bunny Punch, Red ribbon, Gold embossing powder, Heat Tool, Brushed Metallic dots
Here's the Decorative Borders stamp set:

You can be sure to see more of this stamp set from me in the near future!

She cased it from a card seen online. I'm so glad she shared it with me so I could show it to you.

Thank you Ginny!
