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


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.

  • Dressed to Impress meets Ornate Frames for a gorgeous hand made box!


    These are the boxes I included in my Spring Retreat last month.  I think they're gorgeous and was so happy with how they turned out!

    They're hand made from White and Lovely Lipstick card stock with fussy cut flowers and leaves from the Best Dressed designer series paper added to the top. The greeting is from the Dressed to Impress stamp set. The pretty die-cuts are from the Ornate Frames & Ornate Border dies which are now available again!  See them here. 

    Here's a picture of the assembly process: 

    Here are the box dimensions:

    • Top is 3 3/4" X 5 1/2" scored at 3/4" on all sides
    • Bottom is 3 5/8" X 5 3/8" and scored at 3/4" on all sides.  

    Tips:

    • Once you have the box pieces cut and scored you can use the Ornate Border dies to die-cut the pretty windows in the sides.  
    • Cut the White frame using the Ornate Frames dies. Stamp the greeting and add fussy cut leaves and flowers. 
    • Fill with chocolate!

  • Introducing the new 2020-22 In Colors!


    They're in my hands!  The new In Colors that is.  Look at these gorgeous new colors we'll all get to play with soon!

    I added a few of our current colors of card stock with each new color so you can compare them.  The Misty Moonlight is like soft, worn denim. 

    This one seems like a color we've never had before!  It's a honey brown or rich, caramel color. 

    The Magenta Madness is a pretty bright pink.  If you've been around long enough it reminds me of the Pink Passion we used to have years ago.

    The Bumblebee is a golden version of Crushed Curry but a bit brighter. 

    Just Jade is a pretty green and also seems different from anything I remember us having before.  It's lovely! 

    Here's a sneak peak of 5 cards I made with LOTS of brand new products!  Everything is new but the White card stock. 

    How many new products can you spy here?  

    We are going to absolutely LOVE these new colors!  I cannot wait to play and create new, favorite combinations with our current line of colors.   

    Special offer! Each year at my Open House event in early June I offer my local gals a fabulous bundle of our new In Color products . This year I'll be offering it online to everyone (in the USA)!   It's usually consists of the In Color ink pads, ink refills, assorted In Color card stock, In Color designer paper and embellishments (or ribbon).  Then with that purchase they get the set of In color markers free!   It's a great way to have it all and not worry about needing ink refills or markers later.  

    However Stampin' Up! is already running low on a few of these items so I may have to change it up this year.  I'll know more the last week of May, which is when I'll open it up to everyone.  The Covid-19 crisis is sure causing havoc with shipping and inventory; not just with SU but globally.  But we make do with what we have right?  And that will include a ton of new and excited products!
