Unique Double Triangle fun fold with free project sheet & video

March 11, 2026

Today I’m sharing a super neat fun fold card from last week’s video. I featured brand new products from our Online store. The suite is called Delicate Dreams and it’s beautiful! See it here.

I shared two of the cards here in the last few days. Today I’m sharing the most unique one.

Both upper and lower triangles pull out to reveal this:

It’s made from two scored pieces that overlap in the center. I scored each on at 5 1/2″ and then at an angle as well. Please watch the video below to see how it’s done. It’s fairly confusing to use the tutorial only.

This is how it looks when you open the right side only.

I stamped the ‘wheat’ looking image using Stazon ink because the Earthen Toned Metallic foil would resist a water-based ink. This specialty foil paper coordinates beautifully with the bronze print in this DSP.

That pretty ribbon is the Secret Sea open weave ribbon. The greeting is from January’s product of the Month – the Fabulous Sayings stamp set. It’s sold out now; they’re available only while supplies last.

Here’s the free project sheet for this card. Click here to download or print it.

Below is the video tutorial for these cards; be sure to subscribe to my YouTube channel. Or follow me on Facebook here; I share a video almost every Tuesday at 11 am CT.

Rainbow of Happiness in Black & White with a ‘pop’ of color!

March 24, 2022
I saw a similar card using the Rainbow of Happiness that was in Black & pink and I knew it would be perfect for my Flowerbug's Team swap this month. The theme was Black & White with a 'pop' of color.

I chose to use Magenta Madness. It's retiring this month and available here while supplies last.

I stamped the three rainbows in Black Memento ink using my Stamparatus. Making multiple cards with the Stamparatus is THE BEST WAY! There's no guessing with stamp placement.

Details:
- The stamps (hearts, rainbows & greeting) and cloud die-cuts are all from the Rainbow of Happiness bundle seen here.
- I stamped 'thank you' on scraps of Magenta Madness and punched it out with our Double Oval punch for the rainbow center.
- The designer paper in Black & White is from the All Together 6 X 6" pack seen here.
- The gems are the 2021-23 In Color jewels seen here.
- The Magenta Madness patterned paper is part of the 6X 6" DSP pack seen here.
