Check out these Team Swaps featuring Specialty Paper – with measurements!

March 4, 2026

Our card swap theme for February was to feature our beautiful specialty papers. Today I’m sharing three of them with you.

First is a neat fun fold card by Karen. She chose the Lovely & Beautiful specialty DSP and her card shows off both sides wonderfully!

She also used the Three Banner bundle for her greeting. Love that saying! See this punch bundle here.
The stitched square die-cut from Stylish Shapes dies hides the inside panel perfectly.

Measurements are as follows:

Card base 5 1/2″ X 4 1/4″
White 5 1/4″ X 4″, inside is 2 3/4″ square
DSP 5″ X 6″ score at 2″ on the 6″ side
Calypso Coral square die-cut 2 3/4″

Next is Kim’s card who also chose to use the Lovely & Beautiful DSP. She heat embossed her greeting on Vellum!

Notice the brand new embossing folder – it’s called Lazy Daisy and coordinates great with the DSP she chose.

Measurements:

Card base 8 1/2″ X 5 1/2″ score at 4 1/4″, Olive layer 4 1/8″ X 5 3/8″
DSP 4″ X 2 1/4″
Fresh Freesia 4″ X 3″
Gold strip 4″ X 1/2″

Next is a neat shaker card made by Joan. She used the Good Luck stamp set.

Her colors are Shy Shamrock (of course!) and Shaded Spruce with Gold accents.

Measurements:

Shy Shamrock card base 8 1/2″ X 5 1/2″ score at 4 1/4″, top layer is 3 3/4″ X 5″
Shaded Spruce 4″ X 5 1/4″
circle window is 2 3/4″
White inside 3 1/2″ X 4 3/4″

I’ll share more Team swaps tomorrow.

Neat fun fold card 3 ways! With free tutorial & video

February 9, 2026
We made this special card at my January card clubs. They could choose between 3 colors and themes too!

Save

I featured the Addressed to You stamp set for all three cards. See the cute ovals & rectangle with the ‘filled in’ images on the right? Those are all part of this unique stamp set! See it here.

Save

I used the retiring Textured Notes dies seen here. They’re the stitched edge rectangle dies used twice on this card. They are on the last chance list right now and reduced in price too!

Save

This card opens with a type of flip/flap feel. Here’s how we cut off the tabs on the card base. Once you score your card you’ll make a pencil mark from the top and bottom at 1″. Then trim off the corners.

Save

My colors include Pool Party, White and either Pretty in Pink, Fresh Freesia or Peach Pie.

I created a free project sheet for this card with measurements, supplies and step by step directions. Click here to print or download it.

Save

More details:
- I used the images that finished the lined oval & rectangle to decorate the inside ‘left’ edge on the cards.
- We used Blends markers to color in the small images.
- The DSP is the Beach Boardwalk designer paper for the left edge.
- The greetings are from the stamp set called ‘The Right Words’ seen here. It’s one of my favorite greeting sets.

I was in the middle of the video tutorial for this card but the video failed right before I started the project. And I made my last packet. So I do not have a video for it. But hopefully the project sheet above helps you out.

A new fun fold card with the Nature Walk suite; wow!

February 6, 2026

Karen’s swap card blows me away! I haven’t seen a card fold like this one before and I just love her color choices too.

Save

Isn’t it beautiful?! Can you tell that the front, main layers are ‘caught’ on the diagonal textured layer on the lower left? That’s what is keeping the flap tucked in.
This is how it opens:

Save

Her colors include Cloud Cover, Secret Sea, Old Olive & Basic White. I’ll share measurements below.
Did you catch the pretty textured layer? That’s the new Stone & Vine 3D embossing folder. And did you notice the ‘wood look’ die-cut in Olive near the greeting? That and the greeting are included the Nature’s Symphony bundle seen here.

She used the Nature Walk suite for her card which includes gorgeous nature focused products. See it all here.

Save

Here’s how she finished the inside of her card:

Save

Measurements as follows:

-card base 7″ X 5 1/2″ scored at 4 1/4″
-White 7″ X 5″ scored at 3 3/4″. Make a mark on the shorter end at 1″ from the top and the bottom. Trim off the rectangle to the score line for the front flap
-Secret Sea front is 3″ square, side is 2 1/2″ X 5 1/4″, the diagonal piece is 2 1/2″ X 2 3/4″ cut in half and inside is 4″ X 5 1/4″
-DSP front is 2 3/4″ square, side is 2 1/4″ X 5″
