Check out this neat Botanical Expressions fun fold card

July 20, 2026

I shared this pretty card on last week’s Live video. It features a new die from the Online store called Botanical Expressions:

You can see a glimpse of the die in the photo above. It cuts the leaves out but not the edge, so you can make the leaf element as wide as you’d like. See this die here.

My colors include White with Peaceful Pine. The designer paper is the Moonlit Flora DSP seen here. The greeting tag is from the Scalloped Blooms dies. I’ve been using the greeting tags in this set of dies a lot.

This card fold is what I’m calling a Vertical Book-binding Z-fold.

The greeting and butterflies are from the Fern & Flora bundle seen here

Here’s the free project sheet for this card with measurements & directions. Click here.

And below is the video showing you how to assemble this card plus my newest tutorials & card kits to go.

Don’t forget about the July Specials!

Nature’s Prints with an easy white-washing technique video

May 5, 2022

I made this beautiful card on Tuesday's FB live. It's made with the Nature's Prints bundle.

Save

The colors are Orchid Oasis and Starry Sky – two of our newest In Colors that pair beautifully together! They are a rich blue with a hint of purple in the Orchid Oasis color. The white edge on this card is made with the Blossoming Happiness dies.

You might wonder how I colored the leaves white. It's called the whitewashing technique. I stamped them in Orchid Oasis and used White craft ink, a bit of rubbing alcohol and a water brush. You can watch how it's done in the video here. It's my first project of three. You can see the other two below as well as a sample I cased from the catalog too.

They're all made with the Nature's Prints bundle seen here. It was my top pick in the new Annual Catalog by Stampin' Up!.
