Today I’m sharing Sharon’s beautiful card swap. Our October Team swap theme was Fall or Halloween.
She chose to feature the Sunflower Fields suite and the Everyday Arches dies. I’ll share the products used here below.
That gorgeous foil paper behind the arches is theRadiant Foils specialty paper. See how she used the Arches dies for her greeting? She turned it sideways and layered it with a second one in Early Espresso.
I jotted down the measurements for this fun fold card for you.
Pecan Pie card base 8 1/2″ X 5 1/2″ scored at 2 1/8″ & 4 1/4″, lower z-fold 8 1/2″ X 1 1/4″ scored at 4 1/4″ & 6 3/8″

Amazing Side-step Vertical Easel card with Waves of the Ocean suite
We made this remarkable fun fold card at my March card clubs. It features the Waves of the Ocean suite seen here.
Dies featured here:
The Dandy Wishes dies in the Garden Wishes bundle is 20% off right now. You can see that here. I just love the die-cuts and greetings in it. *I wonder if this will be on the retiring list tomorrow…..
The 'Thanks' and 'Amazing' dies are from the Amazing Thanks dies in the 2022 Jan-June catalog. You can see them here. I love the double layering you get with them!!
This card is 4 1/4" X 5 1/2" when finished and lays flat for mailing but stands up beautifully for display.
You can see how this is assembled in the video below. I also list the measurements below too.
The card includes two white panels; one for the middle and one for the back. We stamped the wave from the Waves of Inspiration stamp setusing Pacific Point ink on the middle layer. We added some Bermuda Bay ink on the wave using a Blending Brush. We also added a soft bit of Pacific Point for the sky.
Some left the back empty so they could add a greeting later; depending on what they needed at the time.
As you can see below the gorgeous Waves of the Ocean designer paper includes a variety of 'paint poured' designs & colors. I wanted it to be the main feature of the card and this fun fold made it happen! This designer paper is available through May 1st or while supplies last. This pretty paper, the foil and Waves rhinestones will not be in the new Annual catalog.
Everyone who orders the Waves of the Ocean suite collection from me will receive my exclusive PDF & video for 11 beautiful projects!
I used the Dandy Wishes dies for the 'flower heads'. For the right card below I trimmed off a few of the side pieces to create a smaller flower head.
Measurements:
Pacific Point 4 1/4" X 9" scored at 1 1/4, 2 1/2" & 2 1/2" X 8 1/4" scored at 5 1/2" Waves of the Ocean DSP 2 1/4" X 5 1/4" White X2 – 3" X 4" (front & back) scraps of White & Navy for die-cuts
Easter Friends; simply adorable! Video tutorial included.
I chose the Easter Friends stamp set for one of our Club cards in March. It truly has adorable images! See it here.
I shared a few other projects during a recent Facebook Live. Click here to see it.
Look at this sweet bunny image!
I stamped him/her in Smoky Slate and added a tiny bit of blush on his cheeks. I added a light line of Pool Party blends marker around the edge. The designer papers on this card include the Heart & Home and Hand Penned DSP's. These will likely be on the retiring list which comes out on Wednesday, March 23rd.
They could choose between the bunny or the duck. The duck is colored in with Blends markers; So Saffron & Pale Papaya. All greetings are from the Easter Friends stamp set; stamped in Basic Gray.
