Fabulous fun fold card with the Fluffy Squirrel bundle

November 28, 2025

I hope you are enjoying your Thanksgiving weekend. We are spending it with my kids, eating, playing games and visiting more family.

I am proud to share Candy’s swap card with you. It’s for our ‘foil’ themed November Team swap. She featured the Fluffy Squirrel bundle seen here.

There are so many things that absolutely make this card a winner! She did case it from Ruth’s Stamping Corner.
First of all the Need for Tweed designer series paper; how perfect! Then there’s the cute acorns that are included in the punch! Then the Earthen Toned foil paper circle – punched with our 2 3/8″ circle punch. And what about that neat fold she created!

It’s basically a book-binding card fold but with a twist. She is great about sending me her Measurements:
– Lost Lagoon 11″ X 4 1/4″ score on long side at 2 1/8″, 4 1/4″ & 5 1/2″, 2nd piece is 3 1/4″ X 4 1/4″
– Vanilla – 2″ X 4″ and her sentiment is 3″ X 7/8″
– Need for Tweed – 3″ X 4″, 1″ X 4″ & 2″ X 4″

Thanks for making this adorable swap card for us Candy!

Artist of the Month Sending Smiles cards!

June 23, 2022

Each month my Flowerbug's Team has a featured 'Artist of the Month'. For June, Marilyn chose to use the Sending Smiles bundle seen here.

She made 5 projects and I'm showing the first three here:

Save

Her card base is Orchid Oasis and the flowers are stamped in Orchid, Polished Pink, Daffodil Delight and Old Olive. The flower centers and leaves are separate images so it's easy to have multiple colors on your flowers.

She layered the two 'Sending' dies using our awesome Adhesive Sheets; no glue mess! The Birthday Wishes greeting is heat embossed and die-cut with one of the long dies in the bundle.  The background texture is the Quatrefoil embossing folder seen here.

~~~

Next is a simple card with just a few layers using Fresh Freesia and Parakeet Party.

Save

I love the stamped background she did using Versamark. The White layer is textured with the Painted Texture folder. The Brass Butterflies are the perfect finishing touch!

Her measurements are 2 7/8" X 3 7/8" for the White and 3" X 4" for the Parakeet Party.

~~~

Next is a fun fold card featuring the new hostess paper pack called Design a Daydream. Anyone can get this with hostess benefits if the order is over $150.

Save

Here's a tip on making this diagonal fun fold card. Cut your card base at 4 1/4" X 11" and score it at 5 1/2". Now with your card base laying flat and horizontally, cut off the upper left half of this card base on a diagonal. You'll add the layers of card stock and DSP to that but flip it before adhering it to the main card.

She used the Layering Circles dies for her greeting. I love that you can personalize your greetings with so many options. This was one of my top 3 sets in the new Annual Catalog. In fact it was one of the ideas I shared with Stampin' Up! for my Million Dollar stamp set!

Save

There are 22 stamps in the set and 14 dies!
