Gears & Textures bundle; another wow with Candace’s fun fold card

January 28, 2026

Today I’m sharing a neat card made by Candace; my talented team member. She used the Gears & Textures bundle to make this:

You can see the Gears & Textures bundle here. It’s so special & unique and perfect for masculine cards. But as you can see in Candace’s card it’s great for gals too!

She made her own paper with the stamps in the set. She used Pretty in Pink, Night of Navy & Flirty Flamingo inks. She added die-cut gears from the Metallic Textured Specialty papers seen here.

If you want to make a card like this start out with a 4 1/4″ X 11″ piece of card stock scored at 5 1/2″. Trim off a 1 1/2″ piece from one end. Then trim off another 2 1/2″ piece which is the vertical center piece. The stamped paper layers are 1 1/4″ X 4″ on the top & bottom and the center is 2 1/4″ X 4″.

Thanks for the amazing fun fold card Candace!

Another Nature’s Harvest sample – Sneak Peak!

July 23, 2021

I created this card for an online swap I participated in. I love to join card swaps! I can create one card and make multiples of it. Then I get a nice variety back that I didn't have to think of! Plus I receive cards that may not be my style but are my customers style. Isn't it wonderful that we are all different?!

I decided to focus on the 'blues' in the Harvest Meadow designer series paper. I am usually very happy with a monochromatic card. They can be very easy on the eye.

Save

I cut out two of the 'tall flower/botanical' die-cut in White CS and adhered it to the largest tags in the Tailor Made Tags dies seen here. I added a bow in White Baker's Twine. The greeting is one of the dies in the Nature's dies along with the tall flowers.

The Nature's Harvest bundle can be found in the upcoming 2021 Holiday July/December Mini Catalog. If you're on my customer list you should be receiving this catalog AND your Sale-a-Bration catalog any day now. This catalog goes live on August 3rd along with Sale-a-Bration too!

In this photo you may be able to spy the texture on the tag. It's called Timeworn Type 3D embossing folder. It's subtle design will be a favorite of many!
