Easy Triple Accordion fold with tutorial, measurements & video

We made this pretty Triple Accordion card last night on a FB Live video seen here.  It's a neat fold that is also quite easy to make. 

Save

I used the Awash in Beauty designer paper along with the coordinating True Beauty bundle seen here.  

It stands up nicely but also folds into a 5 1/2" X 4 1/4" A2 size card.

Measurements: 

• Card base 4 1/4" X 11" scored at 2 3/4", 4 1/4", 7 1/4" & 8 1/2"
• Pink layer is 4" square. Cut 2
• DSP – 2 pieces at 3 7/8" square

You can get a share of this pretty designer paper in my Annual Catalog paper share. I still have a few spots left! Message me here Details are at the bottom of this post.

My colors include Mossy Meadow, Polished Pink & Balmy Blue.  The pretty die-cut flowers are all from the Awash in Beauty designer paper.  The Organic Beauty dies are designed perfectly to match the DSP!  The only stamping I did here are the two greetings; all of the flowers are die-cut from either card stock or DSP.

Do you see the little bit of color on the Pink blossom die-cut?  I used Wink of Stella and my White craft ink to add color. Watch the video below to see how.

• Unique Charming Day fun fold card with video tutorial

  August 25, 2025

  ---

  I shared this cool fancy fold card on last week’s Live video.  It looks like an ordinary card at first glance… 

  Save

  I colored the main floral image with a Wink of Stella and ink from my ink pads.  Watch the video to see how it’s done.

  I featured the Floral Charm DSP that’s discounted right now during the In Color promotion.  See it here. It’s almost $2 off.  My favorite thing about it is the color coordination. Each pattern has a soft, matching back side.

  Save

  I also used the Charming Day bundle that coordinates with the DSP.  See that here. 

  Here’s how the card opens.  I’m calling it a double diagonal center fold card. The center stays in place but the outer triangles lift up and to the outside as shown below. 

  Save

  I have a complete project sheet for you with measurements, directions, supplies and photos.  The video tutorial will help you understand how to assemble this card; see it below.  Click on the following link to print or download this project sheet: Download Double Diagonal Center fold cards

• These pretty cards are the last of the Monochromatic Team swaps

  August 22, 2025

  ---

  I’ve been sharing our Team swaps this week that all feature a Monochromatic theme. This means the colors should include hues of similar colors. 

  First is a pretty and soothing card made by Jacki.   

  Save

  She used the Prairie Grass stamp set seen here.  Her colors include Very Vanilla with Crumb Cake.  Her greeting is from the  stamp set seen here.  

  I love how the grass image repeats itself on the Vanilla layer in the background.  

  Measurements:

  • Crumb Cake 8 1/2″ X 5 1/2″ score at 4 1/4″, 3″ X 4 1/4″
  • Vanilla 4″ X 5 1/4″, 2 3/4″ X 4″ 

  ~~~

  Next is a pretty wedding or anniversary card made by Marla.  

  Save

  She used the Lifetime of Love stamp set seen here and the coordinating dies seen here.  I love how these delicate dies inlay so perfectly.

  Her colors include Navy, Misty Moonlight, Crumb Cake & White. She also used a new embossing folder called Jolly Holly Hybrid seen here.  These leaves allow her to lift them a bit to add more dimension. 

  The Designer paper is 2 5/8″ wide and is the Country Lace pack and is discounted and on the Last Chance list now.  See it here. 

  ~~~

  And lastly is this soft & pretty card made by Paula. 

  Save

  Her card features the blue tones of Blueberry Bushel with Azure Afternoon. Her stamp sets are Elements of Text seen here and Textured Notes seen here. The greeting is from the Label Me Grateful stamp set seen here. 

  I hope you enjoyed seeing the beautiful Monochromatic swaps this week.  I have a super talented team!

  Today I’m sharing two more of my Flowerbug Team swaps and both are fun fold layouts.  Our theme was Monochromatic cards and these cards include similar colors.  

  First is Kim’s card featuring the Peace on Earth bundle that’s coming in the new 2025 Holiday catalog in September; just a few weeks away!  The long leaves die-cut is from the Memorable Blooms dies but is now retired.

  Her colors include Cloud Cover with Pretty Peacock & White.  For the large oval die-cuts she used the Impressions Abloom dies seen here.  The Damask Designs embossing folder was used on the Cloud Cover 2-toned card stock panel. 

  Measurements:

  • card base 11″ X 4 1/4″ score at 2 3/4″ & 5 1/2″
  • 2-toned CS textured panel 2 1/2″ X 4″
  • Peacock inside 5 1/4″ X 4″
