Diamond Gatefold fun fold card with Season of Green & Gold specialty paper – video too!

September 16, 2024

On last week's Live video I created this beautiful fun fold card. It shows off both sides of our double sided designer paper beautifully!

I chose to feature the stunning Season of Green & Gold specialty designer series paper seen here online. It's filled with shades of green with gold foil accents and is part of our Online product line.

I cased my friend Susie Wood who made the card on the left below:

She used the Regal Flora designer paper in Cherry Cobbler with Blackberry Bliss. So very pretty! Find more projects by my talented friend from Iowa here on her blog.

I love this neat fold!

Details:

The pretty gold die-cut is from the Peaceful Season bundle seen here.
The greeting is from the Something Fancy stamp set seen here
The leaf die-cuts are from the Delicate Forest dies seen here

Look at the extra details inside too. Wedding cards are fun because you can go over the top a bit! This gorgeous card will be given to my youngest son who's getting married this week. I'm so thrilled for him and his fiance'. We're excited to welcome her into our family!

It used a pieces of designer paper measuring 12" X 5 1/4" that is adhered to a card base of 4 1/4" X 5 1/2". It's scored at 2", 4", 8" and 10". Then the corners are folded down. Here's the simple template I drew:

Circle Celebration; so fun!

April 20, 2021

I have to share this neat card Chanda made for her Card Club swap. I love seeing their style and what my gals make.

Save

She stamped the images from the Circle Celebration stamp set (seen here) all over her 4" X 5 1/4" White CS. Then she stamped more and punched and fussy cut them out to add dimension to the card.

I believe her colors are Bermuda Bay, Crushed Curry and Real Red.

Such a fun and happy card. Great job Chanda!

I'll be using this fun stamp set in a Kit to Go in May; the cards are so fun!!

3 Flowering Cactus Fun Fold cards with video!

April 19, 2021

I created these cards on Facebook Live last week using the Flowering Cactus product medley seen on pages 8-9 of the Spring Catalog. But I purchased the refill kit instead of the main suite because I wanted mostly the paper, twine and felt accents.

You'll find the video below. For those of you on Facebook you can see it here.

I share a FB Live video each Tuesday at 11 am CT. Join me here!

This fold is called a Joy Fold card; a favorite of mine that is basically two half cards folded into one another.

The colors are Mint Macaron, Highland Heather and White. The greeting is from Happiest of Birthdays. The inside greeting is from Happy Thoughts set in the Spring catalog.

Save

Next is an accordion style card. I kind of made this one up; trying to use just half of a sheet of card stock for the fold.

Save

This greeting die-cut is from the Stitched So Sweetly dies and that embossing texture is made with the Tasteful Textile 3D folder. The greeting is from Simply Succulents stamp set in the Spring catalog.

Save

Lastly is a super simple fun fold card that shows off your designer paper well; on the front and the inside of the card. *See measurements in the photo below.

Save

The colors here are Mint Macaron, Calypso Coral and White. The pretty Coral twine comes in the refill kit.

Here's the video for you; enjoy!
