This fun fold card I’m sharing today is super fun to open and to make. It looks like a normal card from this photo:

But look how it opens! The center pops out for a nice surprise.

My colors include Cajun Craze, Early Espresso & Basic Beige. The designer paper is from the Gathering Together pack seen here.

Check out these CUTE Potions & Spells Halloween card swaps

September 19, 2024

Last weekend we held our monthly Flowerbug's Team swap – our theme was Fall or Halloween cards.

Today's first card is made by Ginny who chose the Potions & Spells bundle.

Save

Such an adorable card! She cased it from Julie Gilson. I love the colors of Granny Apple Green, Black, gray, Peach Pie with bits of purple & yellow.

Check out this cute bundle here.

Save

The White background is stamped with a few small images, then ink is added lightly with a Blending Brush before it's textured. The cat, broom and stack of books are adorable!

Save

Next is a fun card made by Robin who used this same bundle. She also added a ghost from the Playful Ghosts stamp set.

Save

She's a master at sponging her backgrounds. I sure love her color scheme of purple, green & black.

Next is Candy's striking card also using the Potions & Spells bundle.

Save

She used the bubbles image to make her own background. The oozing slime and bubble die-cuts are the Old Olive glimmer paper. I love the White Deckled Circle die-cut behind the cauldron. It looks like a moon.

Here's the inside of her cute book-binding card:

More swaps coming tomorrow!

September 18, 2024

Are you drawn to monochromatic cards like me? Today's project is entirely green tones. It's a card we made at Club in August and it features the beautiful Changing Leaves bundle.

Save

The colors include Old Olive, Mossy Meadow & White. I chose the very special Changing Leaves bundle for this because of the neat textures you can achieve with the 3D embossing folder that matches the large leaves die.

Save

This bundle has been out of stock for quite a few weeks but should return around September 23rd. See it here.

The White rectangle is from the Deckled Rectangle dies seen here.

Save

It's a Dutch Door card fold where the side opens up and brings the center layers with it. This long piece is 11" X 2 1/4" and is scored at 5 1/2". It's attached to the bottom of the 5 1/2" X 4 1/4" card base. Check out the free project sheet for it.
