Artistic Sketched Garden fun fold card with free project sheet & video

April 27, 2026

I shared this neat accordion card on last week’s video. Most Tuesdays at 11 am CT I post a Live video on my FB page here. Then the following week I share the free project sheet for it here on my blog. Be sure to follow me here by subscribing to my blog on the right side, my YouTube Channel or my FB page. Don’t miss a thing!

I featured the Artistic Sketched Garden designer paper here; it’s new and will be available in the upcoming 2026 May – August Stampin’ Up! catalog. Each sheet is a black & white combination of florals or prints.

I paired it with Melon Mambo and Black here. The vase of flowers is fussy cut from a sheet of the DSP. I used the Perennial Postage dies to cut a piece of In Color DSP as a background. That simple strip of Black CS really sets of the colors here.

You can’t tell what type of fun fold it is in the photo above. But look at this one:

It’s so cool and gives you plenty of places to add designer paper. Here’s the free project sheet for all three cards. Click here to download or print it.

In the video below you’ll see how I made this card and two more easy fun folds. Please subscribe to my YouTube channel here.

2 Pretty Team card swaps with neat technique ideas!

March 12, 2025
Today I'm sharing two Team Swaps from last month. Both have neat product ideas.

First is Tracey's cute card. Can you guess what the tiny scallops on the DSP is?

She used the Petal Pink scalloped ribbon under the DSP! Tracey has a special gift on fun ways to use ribbon & twine. This effect is so pretty & delicate looking. It's currently in low inventory.

Measurements:

The DSP is 5 1/4" X 1 3/4", the White 5 1/4" X 4", the card base is 5 1/2" X 8 1/2" scored at 4 1/4". The layer under the ribbon & DSP is 5 1/4 X 2"

Here is a list of the many products she used:
- Hugs for Love bundle seen here (punch will be available in April)
- Moody Mauve, Basic White & Pretty in Pink CS
- Timeless Plaid 6 X 6" DSP seen here
- Spotlight on Nature dies seen here
- 2 3/8" circle punch
- Forever Plaid 3D embossing folder (circle)
- Heat embossing technique
~~~

Next is a pretty card made by Lori. Her special technique surprised me! Do you spot it?

She stitched her die-cut circle (Spotlight on Nature) with the 3 color pack of Baker's Twine!

Her card base is Flirty Flamingo and the 4" X 5 1/4" CS layer is textured with the Exposed Brick embossing folder seen here. The pretty DSP is the Sale-a-Bration Bloom Impressions (now retired). The greeting & die-cuts are from the Memorable Blooms bundle seen here.

I'll share more Team swaps tomorrow!
