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.

Everyday Happiness fun fold card kit to go; or choose the PDF tutorial option

February 12, 2025

I chose to feature the new Everyday Happiness designer paper for one of my card kits to go in February. Each month I offer two new kits in my shop here.

These soft & pretty cards are all fancy folds. You'll make 2 each of the 5 card designs. It's always great to learn a few new fold ideas and have samples in hand to case later.

The kit includes these Stampin' Up! products – a share of each – Everyday Happiness DSP, the Iridescent gems & Lost Lagoon cording. You'll want to have the Pretty Peacock ink and greeting images. I used the With You in Mind and Layering Leaves sets but you can substitute others easily. *Add on $40 in product to your kit order and choose a free SAB item!

The pre-cut kit includes all card bases, layers and punched or die-cut pieces. You will need a paper trimmer for your new DSP.

To reserve a pre-cut kit to go for $31 click here. To purchase the PDF tutorial for $16 click here.

The PDF tutorial will be emailed to your immediately after payment. Please check your junk mail! The kit with product will be shipped to you at the end of February, barring any product shortages.

*Supplies needed: a paper trimmer (for your new DSP), greeting images, ink & adhesives.

Remember I have other kits as well; check them all out here and save on shipping.

Beautiful DSP Diamond Gatefold card with video & free project sheet

February 11, 2025

I shared this pretty fun fold card on last week's Live video. You can see it here or scroll down a bit.

It features the Spring Corners bundle seen here and the Bloom Impressions DSP from our Sale-a-Bration promotion. This DSP can be seen here. It's free with any $60 purchase! Unfortunately it's in low inventory status and may be gone soon. I love it and thought it was one of our best offerings.

The Spring Corners set is one of my new favorites; I love the unusual corner style greetings and other images but the dies are special too! As you can see in the front panel I die-cut the coneflower image and then replaced the flower centers with Melon Mambo pieces. So easy and a fun trick!

Here's how it looks when it's opened below. Notice the greeting is in two lines horizontally. I cut the 'corner' shaped stamp set at the corner point so I could have a normal inside greeting. When I want to use it as a corner stamp it easily fits back together on my block again.

Here is the free project tutorial with measurements, directions and a supplies list. Just click on this link to download or print it. Download DSP Diamond Gatefold card

Below is the video tutorial for this card and another special fun fold. I hope you watch it and don't forget to subscribe to my channel!

Bright Borders fun fold with Bloom Impressions DSP

February 10, 2025

We made these pretty cards at my Clubs in January. I featured the Bright Borders stamp set with the To the Point punch and the Sale-a-Bration Bloom Impressions DSP.

Unfortunately the To the Point punch is out of stock and isn't expected to be back until April! I was worried about this when I saw it was in low inventory.

The gorgeous Bloom Impressions DSP is a free choice during Sale-a-Bration and is also in low inventory. If it does run out it's possible they'll turn off the item number if they cannot get more in stock before the end of February. So grab yours here now!

This is a fun fold card – sometimes called a 'back-fold'. The far right inside is scored so it can bend backwards. The greeting layers are adhered to that side and hold the card closed. It's a great way to show off our coordinating colors in our beautiful designer papers.

You can get the measurements in this free project sheet. Also watch the video below. Click on the following link to print or download it. Download Jan 2025 Bright Borders back fold

Below is the video tutorial for this card and another special fun fold. I'll share the other card & free project sheet tomorrow. I hope you watch it and don't forget to subscribe to my channel!
