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!

Pretty Daisy Daydream card & sneak peek of upcoming Paper Pumpkin kits

April 7, 2025

I created this beautiful card using the March Daisy Daydream Paper Pumpkin kit. It's one of my alternatives made with items in the kit.

Save

I used the card base and the stamp set but added a few other items such as:

Perennial Postage die-cut that I sponged the edges on
leaves die-cuts from the Cheerful Daisy dies
Daffodil Delight ribbon (adhered loops to the back)
a Mossy Meadow layer
Adhesive-Backed Metallic gems

Each month all of my Paper Pumpkin customers (and team members) receive a free tutorial filled with alternative ideas. It's really fun to receive a kit each month and start playing with the items in the box.

Go here to subscribe to receive a box each month. You can manage which kits you'll receive – skipping or adding an extra.

Here is a sneak peek of the next three months of Paper Pumpkin:

And there is an add on just for PP subscribers called Hugs Abloom dies seen here. This set of dies will work with each of the upcoming 3 months of kits!

Timeless Plaid card kit for great men’s card ideas. Reserve yours now!

April 4, 2025
If you're like me you tend to make more cards for the gals than the guys. So I thought I'd focus on men's cards for one of my kits & tutorials in April. I chose to feature the Timeless Plaid designer series paper for these terrific cards.

Save

Aren't these great card ideas? Many are fancy fold cards and perfect for the men in your life. The color combinations with the plaid DSP are quite eye catching.

You have a few options here: Choose the pre-cut kit or the PDF tutorial.

This card kit includes the following items:
- the pre-cut card kit including punched and die-cut elements
- 1/2 pkg Timeless Plaid Designer Series Paper (6" X 6")
- a share of the Faux Glass Dots
- a share of Linen Thread
- the PDF tutorial with photos, measurements, a supply list and step by step directions.
The PDF tutorial is $16 and can be seen here. The pre-cut kit is $31 and is seen here.

Reserve yours soon! The PDF tutorial is emailed to you immediately after purchase. The kit is sent out at the end of April barring inventory/supply issues.

For the kit to go you'll need greeting images (I used With You in Mind and Unbounded Love sets but any will work), adhesives, inks and a paper trimmer to cut your new designer paper.

I have multiple kits and tutorials available on my shop here. Check them out!
