Center pop-out Fun fold card with video & free project sheet

September 8, 2025

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.

This designer paper is part of our Online Exclusives. To see all of these new items click here. Or download & save the Download Online Exclusives flyer

I used the Branching Out stamp set for the greeting and the fabulous new Traditional Labels dies seen here.

In the photo below you can see the scored bridge strip that pops out the center. To understand how to assemble this card please watch the video below. It will make sense then!

Friends for Life card with free project sheet & video tutorial

June 17, 2024

On last week's video I shared two cards featuring the neat Friends for Life bundle and the Full of Life designer paper. Here's the first card:

Save

I love the bright colors here! The colors are inspired by the Full of Life DSP – Berry Burst, Lemon Lime Twist, Shaded Spruce, Balmy Blue & Daffodil Delight. There is a layer of Shaded Spruce under the White layer to show off the heart die-cut.

This neat bundle is on sale in June; discounted by almost 20%. See the Friends for Life bundle here.

Save

Notice the heart die-cut from the front layer? I saved it and added it inside the card.

Save

I stamped the hearts on another part of the DSP and used the coordinating die to cut them out. The 'wishes' greeting is from the Perennial Postage dies seen here.

I kept the layout quite simple because the DSP, die-cuts and stamping are the star here. I die-cut the heart from the White layer before I stamped for ease of time during the video. I stamped the 'BEST' greeting first and then added the vertical highlight image in different colors, stamping off first for a lighter hue. I love the effect!

Below is the video for this card and another; both featuring this Full of Life suite. I hope you watch it to get the many tips I like to share in my videos. Don't forget to subscribe to my YouTube Channel while you're there!

Hello Hollyhocks kit – pretty AND easy!

June 14, 2024

I spent a few relaxing minutes putting together these pretty cards last weekend. It's the Hello Hollyhock kit from our Kit Collection.

Save

They turned out beautifully! You can see this Hello Hollyhocks kit here. It's a non-stamping kit that's all inclusive and would make a great gift or perfect for a relaxing crafting experience.

My cat Jazz loves to hang out with me while I stamp.

She wasn't much help but she did settle into the kit box somehow but was quite a tight fit!

Stunning cards in the Thoughtful Journey kit to go; or choose the PDF tutorial

June 13, 2024
I couldn't wait to play and create with the gorgeous Thoughtful Journey designer paper. I think scenic paper like this makes card making a breeze! I decided to make each card a fancy fold too.

Save

I design my kit around the paper and added supplies so all you need to add is stamped greetings. I chose to use the So Sincere set this time; which you can add on at a discount.

This incredibly beautiful designer paper is filled with watercolor scenes and backgrounds making is super easy to create with.

Save

Opt in for the card kit to go by June 18th; supplies may be limited. The PDF tutorial will be emailed to you immediately after payment; check your spam folder. The pre-cut kit is mailed at the end of June.
