Christmas card swaps – fun layouts and fancy-fold cards


I have lots of beautiful cards to share with you this week; all from my Flowerbug's Team swaps. You'll love the theme – 'to use glitz, shine or shimmer'. 

This first card was made by Tracey.  I think we all love the fractured card layout! 

If you want to learn how to make a fractured card here's a link to a video I did.

Products used:

  • Walk in the Forest designer paper (2023 Holiday catalog) 
  • More Dazzle specialty paper (2023-24 Annual catalog) – 1/4" strips
  • Brightest Glow stamp set (2023-24 Annual catalog)
  • Holly leaf die-cuts are from the St. Nicolas dies (Holiday catalog)
  • Christmas Tidings embossing folder (Holiday catalog)
  • Stylish Shapes dies – for 1 7/8" Vanilla square

Next is a neat interlocking gatefold card made by Candace. I'm not sure of the name of this fun fold but see how the circle die-cuts are entwined? One is adhered to each side of the front folds.  

Products used:

  • Gift of Giving stamp set (2023 Holiday catalog)
  • Shining Christmas specialty designer paper ( was in the online exclusives; now sold out)
  • Stylish Shapes dies for circles (2023-24 Annual catalog)

She added designer paper to the inside too! 

Measurements:

  • Cherry Cobbler card base 11" X 4 1/4" score at 2 3/4" from each side.
  • Designer paper is 2 1/2" X 4" – 4 pieces; 2 for the front and 2 for the back
  • Largest circle die-cut is 3", White inside is 2 1/2" 

Stop back in for more gorgeous card swaps tomorrow!

  • A fun layout for the Full of Life designer paper – video & free project sheet too!


    Before I share today's project I have to shout out that the new Holiday catalog starts today! Plus my Open House & BOGO event is today from 4:30 – 6 pm. 

    ~~~

    I LOVE the Full of Life designer series paper!  This card shows just how fabulous it is!

    The clouds and sun die-cuts make this card extra special. They're from the Brightest Skies dies seen here.  The greeting is from the My Small Business stamp set seen here. 

    It was one of my August Card Club projects and everyone loved it. I coordinated the designer paper to match the card bases; here's another example below:

    The greeting for this one is from the Trusty Tools stamp set.

  • Unique fun fold card with the new Regal Winter suite – free project sheet & video too


    I shared the neatest fun fold card on last week's video.  It features the upcoming new suite called Regal Winter from the Holiday Catalog.  This catalog goes live on Wednesday, September 4th. 

    My colors were inspired by the beautiful Regal Winter designer series paper. Fresh Freesia, Blackberry Bliss & White. 

    It looks like a normal card front doesn't it?  It's not!  The right side has a fold to it and the edge is tucked under the diagonal layer. 

    Isn't that neat?  And it's super easy to make too, but to understand it you may have to watch the video below. Or click here to see it.  

    Here's the view of the inside once opened.  That center Blackberry Layer is attached to only the left side. The DSP strip is centered on it and helps you center the whole piece between the two outer flaps.  It's easy; watch the video! 

    **I'll be sharing two more pretty cards featuring this new suite on Tuesday's FB Live video (Sept 3rd). If you're on Facebook I hope you're following me.  If not find me here.
