Stunning Garden Poetry Fun-fold card kit with tutorial option

March 12, 2026

The Garden Poetry designer paper was a firm choice for one of my card kits. It’s absolutely breathtaking with the coordinating prints in leafy and watercolor designs.

I wanted to show off both sides of this beautiful paper so I chose to feature fun folds for these cards.

I love the vibrant colors so much. If you enjoy creating with ‘ready to go’ kits I hope you’ll try one or more of my kits to go.

This kit to go includes multiple products to create cards like these click here. The kit includes all 10 pre-cut cards, 1/2 pkg of the designer paper, a share of the Garden Epoxy gems and the Berry Burst ribbon and costs $31. Plus you’ll receive the PDF tutorial AND the link to the exclusive video tutorial.

The PDF tutorial includes photos, measurements, a supplies list and step by step directions. You’ll need a paper trimmer to cut your new designer paper using the measurements in the tutorial. You’ll also need a few ink colors, greeting images and adhesives to finish your cards. I have a limited supply of these kits available; reserve yours soon!

If you’d like the PDF tutorial click here. It’s $16.

Easiest Shake Card Ever; plus the quickest Christmas cards you can make!!

December 2, 2020

Have you wanted to make a shaker card but didn't want to deal with the Foam Adhesive and window sheets? Well I have a solution for you! Use a clear envelope! Yes; it works beautifully!

I used one of the Wonder of the Season cards, cutting it down to 4" X 5 1/4" and adding another layered strip. I then inserted it into one of our clear envelopes (seen here) and folded the excess to the back, securing it with Tear & Tape. Then I added some Sequins for Everything and sealed it up. It's adhered to a Real Red card base and the greeting is adhered to the front.

The stamps are from the Tag Buffet stamp set.

You can watch how I did this in the video below; it's one of the first projects.

In the video I also shared the Wonder of the Season Memories & More projects. These cards are beautiful and filled with gold & red foil accents. I love these because they are super quick & easy! All I added were some Red rhinestones! No stamping or extra card stock!

Here are a few I made:

Remember I only used three products on these! All you need are the cards (seen here) and the cards & envelopes (seen here) and Red Rhinestones.

You can use the 3 X 4" cards for the pretty card bases so the foil accents show. Or flip the front to the inside and use the larger 4" X 6" cards on the front. This way you can still see that pretty foil on the inside!

Watch the video below to see these projects & more!
