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.

I love this card layout! It is an easy way to show off a peak of your pretty designer paper! I'm calling it a Diagonal Split card.

New Product Sneak Peak; the incredible Sun Prints suite!

April 7, 2022

Today I'm sharing a pretty card made with two new In Colors, a new stamp & die bundle, embossing folder, ribbon and Designer Paper! Whew!

The new In Color I used here is called Orchid Oasis. The greeting and one fern image are stamped with another new In Color called Starry Night. They coordinate beautifully!

Save

This card is a sketch my Flowerbug's Team is currently creating with. We have bi-monthly challenges of sketches or color combos with prize patrol. I thought this sketch would work well with some of our brand new product.

Save

The Nature's Prints stamp set comes with beautiful ferns, leaves, a flower, an ink splat and gorgeous mixed font greetings. It will be super popular! In fact I may feature the Sun Prints Designer Paper in a card kit to go in May; I love it so much!

It's hard to see the fern background on the White layer here. I sponged a bit of Orchid Oasis ink onto the textured fern CS. I wrapped the new 1/8" Orchid Oasis metallic trim around it and added a bow on the right; just like the sketch above. The white embellishments are the Classic Matte dots in the current Jan-June mini catalog.

You can see a peak of the pretty Sun Prints Designer Paper in the background. It is filled with botanical prints in Navy, Pacific Point, Starry Sky & Gray Granite. I'll share more projects featuring this suite next week.
