A neat overlapping fun fold card with free project sheet, video & punch trick!

March 10, 2026

Yesterday I shared one of the three fun fold cards I made in the video tutorial last week. Today I’m sharing the second one.

My colors include Mossy Meadow, Crumb Cake, White and the retired Boho Blue. The colors in the new Delicate Dreams DSP includes a brand new In Color coming out in May. It’s called Hydrangea Hue. I don’t have it yet so I had to substitute.

The Delicate Dreams designer paper AND the Delicate Whispers bundle are out of stock right now but you can add your email to the list to be notified when it’s available. Click on the links to do this. They should be back in stock in a few weeks.

The front top flap overlaps the lower one. I added a strip of the Boho Blue and besides texturing it with the Beautiful Pattern embossing folder I used my To the Point punch to mimic the Mossy Meadow punched piece. I love this punch!

Here’s how you do it.

You must insert the layer in the back of the punch and wiggle it between the slot. You don’t insert it through the usual space. See the card stock sticking out of the upper part of the punch? *If you don’t want the usual size of your punch this is how it’s done.

Here’s the inside view of this card with the upper flap lifted:

And here’s the view with both flaps lifted:

Notice the colored die-cut on the White layer here? I cut that die from the White layer and sponged it with Mossy Meadow ink. Then re-inserted it into the White CS. I love this effect!

If you’re loving my free project sheets I suggest you create a file on your computer and save them all there. Easy inspiration!

I’ll share the last card tomorrow. Don’t miss it!

Below is the video tutorial for this card and two more.

July 22, 2021
Here's a sneak peak of a few products from the upcoming 2021 Holiday Catalog.

I used the new bundle called Nature's Harvest and the coordinating Harvest Meadow Designer Series Paper. From the Annual Catalog I used the two dies called Tailored Tags and Stitched Leaves. These are going to be one of my 'go to's'! Click on the photo to see them in my store.

The colors here are Cinnamon Cider, White & Soft Succulent. I stamped the flowers in Soft Succulent ink and water-colored them with ink and an aqua-brush. The die-cut in the bundle cuts it out perfectly. The greeting is heat embossed with White powder.

Look at these fabulous floral cards!

July 21, 2021

Here are a few more of my Flowerbug's Team swap cards for July:

First is one made by Paula who featured the Color & Contour Bundle seen here. She stamped each flower and die-cut it with the Scalloped Contour dies. She also stamped the other flower image for the stem and leaves. That large scalloped rectangle is also included in this bundle. There are actually 5 scalloped rectangle in this set!

Her colors are Daffodil Delight, Fresh Freesia and Polished Pink. The spatter background image is in this set as well. Her greeting is stamped on a Tailored Tag punch.

Next is a pretty card by Marilyn. She used the Hand-Penned Petals stamp set. Her background is from the new Stitched Greenery die seen here. She also used the Hand-Penned Designer paper and Circles dies.

Love this color combination of Mint Macaron, Daffodil Delight and Highland Heather. She colored in her floral image with Blends markers. Love that sparkly Highland Heather ribbon!

Lastly is a pretty card made by Roxann featuring Positive Thoughts & the coordinating Nature's Thoughts dies. That wonderful background texture is from the Tasteful Textile 3D folder.

Her colors feature Petal Pink, Daffodil Delight, Polished Pink, Olive and Soft Sea Foam. There are lots of pretty die-cuts & details on her card! The greeting is one of my very favorites.

I'll share more of our swap cards tomorrow!

Colorful swap cards with Pattern Party hostess paper

July 20, 2021

This weekend we held our monthly Flowerbug's Team swap and the theme was to make cards with yellow. It could be a lot, or just a little. We thought it was a great 'summertime theme'. I'm so proud of their cards; they are all quite talented!

This first card was made by Barb. She used the Back on Your Feet stamp set, the Basic Border & Meadow dies.

I just love how she colored the giraffe the same colors as her designer paper! What a well coordinated card! I believe she used our amazing Blends markers for coloring. And look at her inside! She used the extra die-cut edges to decorate the inside to match!

Next is Mary's card featuring the same Pattern Party designer paper. You can only get this paper with hostess rewards. You can see it on page171 of the annual catalog; or click here.

She used the Tailor Made Tags and the Biggest Wish stamp set. She also colored her clear rhinestones with a Blends marker before adding them to the tag.

I'll share more of our swap cards tomorrow!
