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.  

Save

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.

  Here's the inside view where you can see how she trimmed a portion of her card front away to create the window effect. *She'd normally stamp or add to the inside but she had to rush to get them mailed out in time.

• Best Tips for successful Shaker Cards with video tutorial!

  July 21, 2025

  ---

  Who wouldn't like to receive a shaker card?!  They're fun, shakable and hard to resist playing with. 

  Save

  I made a bunch of these for our July Team card swap featuring 'window sheets'. I love the fact that I could get multiple, colorful die-cut flowers with the Extraordinary Floral Washi Tape and the coordinating die-cut. Just add it to another piece of cardstock and die-cut. So fast & EASY! 

  Save

  Notice the sponged green designer paper above. That is the Irresistible Designs 12" DSP seen here.  I added Olive ink to it with a Blending Brush; the printed embossed designs 'resist' the ink.  Pretty cool! 

  I used the Paper Tags stamp set – stamping the greeting directly onto the window sheet with Black Stazon ink. Then I turned it over to add a bit of Flirty Flamingo blends marker on the 'celebrate' part.  

  Save

  My colors include Flirty Flamingo, Old Olive and White for a fresh floral card design. Want to know the steps to achieve a shaker card?  Best to grab the free project sheet below or watch the video tutorial.
