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.

June 3, 2020
Crafters are always ready for new products, right? Even if you think you there will always be more that you 'need'! It's not hoarding or collecting if you actually use it, right?

Hopefully you have your new catalog now. If you do not have a local demonstrator let me know if you'd like one; they cost just $5 for shipping to you. You can see all of the new products here online.

Here's a card I made using all 5 of the beautiful new 2020-22 In Colors:

The card base is Misty Moonlight and the three 1 1/4" strips are Just Jade, Magenta Madness and Cinnamon Cider. I added the greeting die-cuts in White and Bumble Bee. These pretty die-cuts are from the Tasteful Labels dies on page 179; they're awesome and one of my favorites I've used a ton.

For my long distance customers I'm holding a Virtual New Catalog Party Wednesday evening from 6-9 here on Facebook.  I'm so excited about this; it's the first time I've held one!

Quick Framed Panel card; three ways!

June 1, 2020
For last week's Stamp with Me Facebook Live I chose to make framed panel cards. There are likely many ways to frame a stamped panel but I chose to highlight three of them – Stamped, Textured and Designer Paper. Look!

On these first two cards I stamped leaves on card stock using White Craft ink. The colors above are the new 2020-22 In Colors in Just Jade and Misty Moonlight. I used the Layered with Kindness (retiring!; see it here) and the brand new Forever Fern stamp sets. The punch is Label Me Fancy seen here.

Just look at the detail on the Distinktive images here on the Forever Fern stamp set. I'm in the middle of creating a new Wonder template for 8 quick, beautiful cards using this stamp set. I cannot wait to share it with you!

I do not have the new Misty Moonlight ink yet so I used Night of Navy, stamped off once. It's close!

Measurements:
- Card base 5 1/2" X 8 1/2" scored at 4 1/4"
- long pieces are 1" X 4 1/4"
- short pieces are 1" X 3"
- stamped panel is 1 3/4" X 3"
- Navy layer is 1 7/8" X 3 1/8"
This next card is the new Cinnamon Cider with Bermuda Bay. I also used the new Forever Fern stamp set here. The butterflies are from Butterfly Wishes set.

The next card is Seaside Spray with Night of Navy and features the Layered with Kindness and Butterfly Wishes. which coordinated with our Butterfly Duet punch. The Ornate Floral embossing folder is new and in the upcoming Annual catalog but it's available now.

Lastly is one made with Garden Lane designer series paper (on sale right now) in Garden Green & Mint Macaron.

Each week I share the measurements for our Monday stamp sessions a day or two early. Everyone preps their card supplies and create right along with me on my Facebook Page. They're loving my quick & simple cards; we make 3 each week on Monday nights at 7:30 pm CT. You can see the cards we're making tonight!  Join us here!
