Diagonal Fun Fold with new products! Free project sheet & video too.

December 24, 2024

Today I'm sharing a neat fun fold I hadn't made for awhile. It's a diagonal fold that is fun and easy.

I used a few new, upcoming products from both the 2025 Spring and the 2025 Sale-a-Bration catalogs. The greeting & punch are made with the Bright Borders set and coordinating To the Point punch. The designer paper is the Toadstool Gardens 6" DSP from the SAB catalog. It's free with any $60 purchase from January 7th – February 28th, 2025.

I made over 20 of them for a mail out swap I joined. The colors include Melon Mambo & Granny Apple Green.

I share how to make it in the video here and seen below. Basically it involves trimming off half of one side of the card base, flipping it and adhering it back to the card front. The only confusing this can be adding your designer paper. I suggest using a non-directional paper when trying this out.

Here's the free project sheet you can print or download. Click on the following link: Download Bright Borders Diagonal fun fold

Below is the video if you'd like to see how to assemble this card. I also share a pretty Sophisticated Sled project too.

Ombre sponging technique with Flowering Foils

March 5, 2020
Before I talk about today's project I have to let you know that they Golden Honey Designer Paper is no longer available. It was one of the free choices during Sale-a-Bration. Unfortunately these products are only available while supplies last. So don't delay on your orders!

This next card is a version of a card I'm sending to my new Team members who purchased the Starter kit this month. I chose to use Bermuda Bay with Black and White; you know the 'Black & White with a pop of color' theme. It's a classic and always works!

Save

I started out with a 2" X 5" strip of the Flowering Foils specialty designer paper. It's gorgeous with silver and rose gold foil designs. You can see it here. It's a free choice with any $50 order while supplies last.

I inked a wedge of sponge in Bermuda Bay ink and lightly sponged from bottom up. I always start off of the card stock when I want a smooth look. Also sponge in a soft circular motion; almost like you are washing it. You can see me demo this in my FB Live video here.

Other Details:
- Rare Blessings stamp set for the greeting
- Stitched So Sweetly dies
- pearls are colored with the dark Bermuda Bay Blends marker
- The flower is fussy cut from the same designer paper and colored with light Bermuda Bay Blends marker

I made a pretty stitched frame with the Stitched Rectangles dies and Silver Foil paper. Added a greeting and a fussy cut flower from the Flowering Foils paper. I sponged it with Petal Pink ink for a bit of soft color.
