Cute as a Bug fun fold kit to go or PDF tutorial

January 16, 2026

Here’s the second kit to go I’m offering in January; the Cute as a Bug fun fold card kit:

Stampin’ Up! knocked it out of the park with this CUTE designer series paper! *see it online here It’s unique color combinations and whimsical critters make creating with it so enjoyable.

I created 5 different fun fold layouts and doubled them for a total of 10 unique cards.

The PDF tutorial includes step by step directions, photos, measurements and a supplies list. I also recorded a video tutorial exclusively to those who purchase it or the kit to go. This tutorial is just $16 and can be seen here.

The pre-cut kit to go can be seen here. Reserve it now and it will be mailed out later this month (likely around the 22nd of January).

The kit includes the following: 1/2 pkg of the Cute as a Bug DSP, a share of the Ladybug Garden epoxy gems, the Old Olive rick-rack ribbon and exclusive video link. It also includes 10 pre-cut cards! Everything is cut for you except your new designer paper. You’ll use the measurements in the PDF tutorial to do that; it’s easy! Then just assemble and add your stamped images to the greeting pieces provided. (Any greetings will work; feel free to use what you have).

My kits are super easy to complete. I get tons of compliments and repeat customers each month.

Be Dazzling specialty paper is sold out! Fabulous Summer Shadow dies projects with video!

September 17, 2021

I cannot believe the many ways you can use these Summer Shadow dies seen here! I shared two bright, fun cards yesterday here and have more yet today.

Save

I sure love the leaves in Coastal Cabana & Pool Party! The flowers are Melon Mambo & Blushing Bride.

Save

The greeting is from the coordinating stamp set in the Annual Catalog called Shaded Summer seen here. I love the greetings & font in this set! That heat embossed greeting/die-cut is from the Messages die.

Save

Next up I created some colorful cards using the Sale-a-Bration Be Dazzling specialty designer paper. As of today this paper is SOLD OUT unfortunately. They did predict they'd run out of this paper before Sale-a-Bration is over.

Just so you know, these Summer Shadow dies (and the Sheep dies) are also expected to run out!

Save

I used Blends markers to color my flowers. You can see this in the video below. The card base is Granny Apple Green and the vertical strips are Poppy Parade on the left & Magenta Madness on the right.

Which is your favorite?

I'm so sorry that this gorgeous paper is unavailable now. I hope most of you ordered it while you could!

The pretty Summer Shadow dies unleashed my creativity!

September 16, 2021

I sure had fun playing with the Summer Shadow dies this week. I planned to make 3 cards and ended up with 6! I had to make myself stop, which rarely happens. I started out with this amazing card inspired by one made by Beth McCullough.

Save

I die-cut a bunch of flowers & leaves from Mango Melody, Granny Apple Green Coastal Cabana and Magenta Madness and added them to Black CS that I embossed with the Hello & Thank you embossing folders. The greeting from Shaded Summer is on a die-cut from the Messages die. See the pink & black gingham ribbon? It's originally Black & White but I colored it with my Magenta blends marker.

As you can see in these eye catching cards you can do a lot with these dies!

Save

I also made this neat card with a paper piecing technique. I inserted petals into the outline flower and secured them with tape. The black & White DSP behind the fie-cuts is from the Pattern Party DSP. It's a huge pack of 48 sheets – a hostess choice with orders over $150 seen here or on page 171 of the annual catalog.

The colors are Coastal Cabana, Magenta Madness, Black, White & Mango Melody.

Save

The Summer Shadow dies are free during Sale-a-Bration (this promo ends Sept 30th). Now is a great time to stock up on essentials when you earn free products with your orders. Card stock, inks, In Colors, Blends markers, Designer Paper etc. Check these dies out here!

Easy 8 Card Wonder with Christmas Season

September 15, 2021

Last month my local gals made these cards at class. It's made with my Easy 8 Card Wonder template. I just love creating my own designer paper with our gorgeous colors and stamped images! It's one of my favorite things to create.

Save

I chose to use these colors: Old Olive, Early Espresso, Rich Razzleberry, Cajun Craze & Bermuda Bay.

The stamps include Little Delights, Sparkle of the Season, Thinking, Thanks & Peace; all from the 2021 Holiday Catalog.

I stamped an entire 8 1/2" X 11" piece of White card stock using the Christmas Season stamp set. On the reverse side of this is the printed template so I know just where to cut each piece!

Save

You can get the PDF tutorial for this one sheet wonder here on my Tutorial Shop. Once purchased you'll receive it via email. Be sure to check your spam or junk folder for it!

*Those who've purchased this tutorial from me from my Shop have been sent an updated file free of charge!
