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:

Other products used are the Arches dies, the Mini Corrugated embossing folder and a thin strip of Florals in Bloom DSP too.

Technique: I sponged the die-cut flowers with coordinating ink to add depth. Two quick ways to add easy detail and depth to your projects is to use Stampin' Dimensionals and sponging. It's amazing what sponging can add to your projects!

You can see many of the dies in this bundle in the photo below.

A fun layout with the Impressions Abloom bundle; with free project sheet!

May 28, 2025

I shared this striking card on last week's video. It has a color combination I love!

Save

The colors include Summer Splash, Strawberry Slush, White & Darling Duckling. It features the Impressions Abloom bundle seen here.

I love the split view of the stamped panel. I did this by stamping first and cutting it into thirds afterwards. It's simply 3 1/2" X 4 1/2", cut into 1 1/2" panels.

The Impressions Abloom bundle has it all; floral and greeting images with fabulous, coordinating dies. I'll be sharing a another card made with it this week.

Save

This stamp set is both a 2-step set and a distinktive style which means it gives multiple hues of color with one inking. I've been loving this bundle! Between the flowers, greetings and dies it's a sure winner!

Below is the video tutorial for this card and another; both using this wonderful bundle. I hope you watch it; don't forget to subscribe to my YouTube channel too!
