A set of fun fold cards with NEW designer paper! Free project sheet & video too

April 28, 2026

Yesterday I shared one of these fun fold cards and today I’ll share the other two. All feature the brand new Artisan Sketched Garden designer paper. It’s coming out on May 5th in the May-August catalog from Stampin’ Up!

I shared the top card yesterday and today I’ll share the lower two.

First is this SUPER easy fun fold card. It’s a great way to use your DSP up. The front layer is 3″ X 4″; perfect for 12 X 12″ DSP.

I chose to use two of the retiring 2024-26 In Colors for this one. Summer Splash and Pretty in Pink with Black & White. This Artisan Sketched Garden DSP is all Black & White but I colored the flowers and leaves in with Blends markers. The greeting image is from the Greetings for all Ephemera pack seen here. It’s one of my very favorite greeting packs and it’s carrying over too! The Black punched piece is from the Heartfelt Hexagon punch. Sadly it just retired and is not out of stock.

The inside White layer hides the end of the scored Pink flap. It’s a really neat and simple fun fold card. Click here to access the free project sheet.

And here is the last card in this trio of fun fold cards featuring the new Artistic Sketched Garden DSP. It’s another side flap card:

My colors include Lemon Lime Twist, Blueberry Bushel with White. The scored side flap flips to the right and has the diagonal squares with the greetings attached. The greeting is part of the Greetings for All Ephemera pack again; added to the Labeled with Love punched piece. This is retiring now and available here while supplies last.

My ‘5 at a time’ card templates are addicting!

December 2, 2021

I'm so excite to share this fun & unique idea! I created two templates that help you make 5 cards at a time. It's addicting & you'll be looking at your stamps in a whole new way!

I shared this on last week's Facebook Live and it was a hit! It's so fun to do.

For these cards I used the Merry Snowflakes stamp set (seen here) & Pool Party, Bermuda Bay & Highland Heather inks. The card stock is White, Gorgeous Grape, Bermuda Bay & Coastal Cabana. If you follow me you know these are some of my favorite colors! They're perfect for snowflakes.

Below are the templates. Remember these are 8 1/2" X 11" to start with. For these cards I stamped before I cut but you can certainly cut your pieces first if you'd like to.

As you can see these templates have very little waste.

Before I stamped I scored on the 4 3/4" and 3 1/2" lines leaving the piece intact. You could also draw a light pencil mark so you know where to stamp.

And here is how the White card stock is stamped. (I forgot to take a photo before I cut and layered them.)

Can you see that the images concentrate on two sides of each piece leaving one corner free & clear? Basically you're stamping down the middle and on each of the lines. This keeps the cards from being too busy.

I added a few iridescent Wonderful snowflakes (seen here) to some of them; I cannot get enough of these! They're such a great size & value – you get 24 for $6.

I hope you watch the video below to see the tips & tricks on using these templates.

Below is the video so you can see how it's done.

I'm also sharing this amazing card we made at my November card clubs. I cased it from my friend Susie Wood; she generously shared her idea and card with me. You can see more of her work here on her blog.

Isn't it adorable?! I just loved her colors & design and had to case it almost exactly! And guess what?! The Penguin Place bundle is back in stock!! See it here online; it will not return as a bundle at 10% off after this catalog period.

In addition to the Penguin Place bundle I used the Heartwarming Hugs designer paper (retiring), Circles Collection dies & Black glitter paper (retiring).

The next two photos show the box inside the fold. There's also a flap you attach your circles to. See the measurements below. The video will help you the most though!

Here's how it looks from the side:

Measurements:
- Black – card base 4 1/4" X 11" scored at 5 1/2", Black scalloped circle 2 3/4", plus a 2" X 4 1/2" strip, scored every inch for the flip box & a 3/4" X 2" strip for the flip part
- White inside 4" X 5 1/4", White circle 2 1/3"
  Heartwarming Hugs DSP 1 1/2" X 4"
  Red circle 2 7/8"
Here's the video for this card; I hope you watch it and feel comfortable enough to try making one.

Eden’s Garden card in fresh colors

November 30, 2021
The Eden's Garden collection is featured in greens, gold & white. See it here.

Well I thought I'd play with purple, green & white for this pretty card.

I stamped the images in Old Olive & Gorgeous Grape along one side of the card. Then I textured it with the Timeless Type 3D embossing folder. Lastly I added a greeting on a Picture This die-cut.

Measurements:
- card base 5 1/2" X 8 1/2"
- White 3 3/4" X 5"
- Old Olive 4" X 5 1/4"
