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.

Check out this beautiful fun fold card made by Annette for our Team swap in September! Our theme was fun fold cards featuring products in the 2020 Holiday catalog.

Christmas Cards kit to go; all Fun-fold cards! Opt in by the 20th!

October 8, 2020
Yesterday I shared the Plaid Tidings cards kit and today I'm sharing my 2nd cards kit to go (I cannot seem to do just one; there's too many fabulous products!).

I chose to feature the Heartwarming Hugs designer series paper seen below. It includes a variety of tiny patterns of plaid, stripes, dots, and more in traditional Red's and Green's. I especially like the gingham and stripes. Oh and the polka dots too!

Save

Look at these cards! Each one is a unique fun-fold card which is a delight for the recipient. They're creative & fun but not too difficult for a non-stamper to figure out either. They include latch folds, pocket, flip, easel cards & more!

Save

This pre-cut kit includes $20 in current Stampin' Up! product, all for just $28! Yes; you're getting the 10 cards for just a few dollars when you add in tax & shipping.

In your kit to go you'll receive:
- 1/2 package of Heartwarming Hugs Designer Series Paper (6" X 12")
- 3/8" Red double stitched satin ribbon
- Red Rhinestone jewels
- the free pdf tutorial for all 10 cards (valued at $15)
This pdf written tutorial is available separately at my Tutorial shop here. It includes step by step directions, measurements, a supplies list and photos.

I used the Wrapped in Christmas stamp set on all 10 cards; it's a fabulous holiday set and coordinates with the Warm Wrap dies.

Save
