Christmas Season Gatefold card with a Designer Paper twist; FB Live video!

October 25, 2021

We're making these pretty cards tonight on FB Live 'Stamp with Me'. It's at 7:30 pm CT here.

It's actually a gatefold card but the front panel is a piece of designer paper that leaves a reveal of the right edge of the card base which is textured.

For these two cards I chose to use the In Good Taste DSP (Annual Catalog on the left) and Cork paper on the left from the Holiday catalog.

Or see it on my YouTube channel here on Tuesday.

Look at her amazing coloring on the cups! And it’s a fun fold with a gift card option too!

Next is a sweet card made by Candy who also used this bundle:

Save

Her colors include Pretty Peacock, Lost Lagoon & Pumpkin Pie.

She textured the Lost Lagoon layer with the Plaid 3D embossing folder. The circle is about 2 1/2″ around and is a Stylish Shapes die-cut as well as the greeting die-cut.

~~~

And lastly today is a perfectly Autumn card made by Gwen. It’s her first time swapping! She did a wonderful job!

Save

Each of these cards features the More Than Autumn bundle and they’re all so unique. It’s a pretty big bundle with a wide variety of images and dies. She used the new Gathering Together specialty paper seen here. She added a center strip under her images that’s 1 3/4″ wide. Cajun Craze with Very Vanilla are her card stock colors. The greeting die-cut is from the Perennial Postage dies.

Thanks for stopping in; I hope you enjoyed the card swaps today. I’ll share more soon!

A neat vertical ‘Book Binding’ card fold with video tutorial

September 16, 2025

Here’s the second card I shared on last week’s video. It’s a neat book binding card that’s vertical instead of the usual horizontal card.

Save

The colors include Gray Granite & Early Espresso with White. I chose these colors to match the Toile designer paper from the Holiday Catalog. See it here.

Save

The view above shows the card open. The card starts as a normal 8 1/2″ X 5 1/2″ card base but has two extra score lines. See the measurements and directions here on the free project sheet. Click on this link to download or print it.

I made multiples of this card for an online swap I participated in. I love swapping and making multiples of the same card.
