Flight & Airy surprise accordion fold with video & free project sheet


I shared this beautiful card in last week's Live video. We also made it at my local Card Clubs as well.  

There are so many fabulous projects and features on this pretty card front I'll list them here:

  • The colors are Fresh Freesia with Boho Blue & White.
  • The Fresh Freesia layer is first cut with the Perennial Postage dies before texturing. 
  • The beautiful texture is from the Layering Floral 3D embossing folder seen here.  I cannot recommend this folder enough!  I rubbed my Craft White ink pad directly over the deep texture to highlight the flowers. *watch the video
  • The pretty butterfly is from our Paper Butterfly Accents. We added Boho Blue & Fresh Freesia ink to it with Blending Brushes. 
  • The greeting stamps are from the Heartfelt Hellos stamp set.  It's one of our free choices with a $50 order during Sale-a-Bration.  See it here. 
  • The White greeting label is made by punching the ends of a 1" wide strip of card stock with our Handmade Tag punch.  It's layered onto the Heartfelt Hexagon punch.
  • See the Flight & Airy designer paper here.  It's another free Sale-a-Bration choice with a $50 order through February, or while supplies last.
  • The inside layers were also made with the Perennial Postage dies (like the front layer) 

But the coolest thing about this card is that you get a fun surprise once you open it! 

There's a full strip of Flight or Fancy designer paper inside, folded accordion style in the center. This leaves the outer areas flat for adding greetings etc.  Remember there's a video tutorial to watch here or below. 

You can add more labels, greetings or punches on each of the accordion folds as well if you wish.

    Kim made this amazing card for our April Team swap:

    She combined new and current products for this beautiful card cased from Karen Hadler. That beautiful textured flower is from an upcoming bundle called Opulent Oasis. It includes a new die that textures; it’s called Textured Impression dies. I’ll share more details on this new product soon. It will be released on May 5th in the 2026 May-August catalog.

    The designer paper is called Lovely & Beautiful and can be seen here. The pretty leaf die-cut is from the Nature’s Symphony dies.
    Here’s how it looks once opened:

    So many layers!! The card stock colors include Old Olive, Petal Pink and Fresh Freesia.

    Measurements:

  • Three pretty swap cards with great layouts


    Our Team swap theme was nature or animals this month. I’m sharing three pretty cards I think you’ll want to case.

    First is a card made by Jonna who is featuring the Nature’s Symphony suite.

    She used the Nature’s Symphony stamp set and the Nature’s Walk designer paper here. I love the layout so much! Adding your greeting strip across the front is a fantastic way to break up the large layers.
    Her colors include Pretty Peacock and White.

    Measurements are as follows:

    – Cloud Cover card base 8 1/2″ X 5 1/2″ score at 4 1/4″
    – Pretty Peacock large layer 5 3/8″ X 4 3/8″, small layer 3″ X 4 1/4″, strip 4 1/8″ X 1″, inside is 4 1/8″ X 5 3/8″
    – White 2 3/4″ X 4″, inside 4″ X 5 1/4″
    – DSP 4″ X 5 1/4″

    Inks used: Pretty Peacock and White Craft ink.

    The next card is made by Tracey who used a new to me’ tearing technique on her pretty card:

    She used the Floral Charm designer paper. Actually it’s just one sheet and measured 3″ X 4″ before she tore it. The technique she used is called ‘Rip & Flip’. You tear the lower half off and flip it to reveal the other side. Slide the torn piece under the upper portion to hide the ‘cut’ side. So cool!

    Look at the ribbon above the greeting circle. She formed loops of Berry Burst 1/4″ shiny ribbon and adhered it underneath the flowers and greeting. So smart and unique!
    The colored and die-cut flowers are from the Extraordinary Flora bundle seen here.

    Measurements:

    – Pretty Peacock card base 5 1/2″ X 8 1/2″ score at 4 1/4″
    – Berry Burst 4 1/4″ X 3 1/4″
    – DSP 4″ X 3″
    – White circle die-cut

    Lastly is Candy’s card featuring the Nature’s Symphony stamp set with a neat technique:

    She cased this technique from Kim Quade. She created a window with the Stylish Shapes dies and another piece of paper. She used Blending Brushes inside the window for the soft, multicolored look and stamped the leaves before removing her mask.

    Her ink colors include Balmy Blue, Daffodil Delight and Fresh Freesia. She stamped the images with Secret Sea. Beautifully done!

    I’ll share more swap cards tomorrow.
