Clever & Amazing interactive triple-tier cake card with video tutorial!

This card might look like an ordinary card with a layered cake on front but it's not!

Each layer opens up to reveal more inside! Click on the very short video below to see it in action!

The Bright & Beautiful designer paper is new in Stampin' Up!'s annual catalog.  It's filled with fun and colorful patterns in many of our new core colors.  Love this paper!

If you've followed me for awhile you know I like to create interesting fun fold cards. I saw something like this card online and knew my stampers would like to see it.  

I cut strips or pieces of the Bright & Beautiful designer paper into sizes that would make a nicely layered cake.  Each piece is folded in half. Once you open them there's an inside message on each layer.  So cool! 

And the best thing is that the middle star die-cut hold the lower flap closed which then holds each layer closed.

• Stunning Amber Autumn card with free project sheet

  November 4, 2025

  ---

  This is the card we made at my October card clubs:

  Save

  Isn’t it beautiful? I got the idea from Akemi Geary from Everyday Stamping. I didn’t change much because I loved it that much.
  It features the Amber Autumn bundle seen here. That beautiful, detailed background die creates the gorgeous backdrop for the pretty colored images and you can also get multiple leaf die-cuts from it by clipping them apart.

  Save

  We colored them with Blends markers and added a few die-cut leaves from the Earthen toned Metallic paper seen here. A thin strip of Autumn Toile DSP, the Irregular ribbon & gems finished it off beautifully.

  Save

  I kept the inside quite simple by stamping a greeting from the Gathering Moments stamp set and adding the acorn & leaves image without coloring it.

  I created a free project sheet for you with photo, measurements and products used. Click here to download or print it.

• An Pillar fun fold card with Amber Autumn; with video & project tutorial

  November 3, 2025

  ---

  I love this fun fold card! So easy yet unique as well.

  Save

  I used the Amber Autumn stamp & dies bundle seen here. I was initially on the fence about this set; did I need another fall themed bundle? But wow; am I glad I bought it!
  See how I finished the back side?

  Save

  I used the large detailed die to add pretty borders to the sides. So pretty! It’s quite easy to snip a few of the connection points on the leaves. Here’s a photo of this pretty bundle:

  Save

  I created a different version on my video.

  Save

  Which one do you prefer? Notice that the pillar is on different sides of each card; do you have a preference?
  Both feature the Gathering Together specialty designer paper. I also used a bit of the Earthen Toned Metallic paper for the die-cut leaves.

  Save

  The card stock colors include Early Espresso, Vanilla and Timid Tiger.
  In the video I shared how to get some highlights on your colored image using the Color Lifter Blends marker.

  Here’s how the back looks on the Timid Tiger card:

  Here is the free project tutorial you can print or download. Click here to access it.

  Be sure to watch the video tutorial for this fun fold card and my other project featuring the Amber Autumn bundle. It’s a gorgeous set of products!
