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!

Need a quick gift box for the Holidays? Use your designer paper!!

December 24, 2020

Are you a last minute wrapper? I can help! I made these fast gift boxes on this week's FB Live. Honestly they are super easy and you can make them wide or tall depending on where you score.

Save

Each one is made from 2 pieces of 12 X 12" designer paper; these are from Toile Tidings which is now discontinued and out of stock. Double sided paper is preferred and makes them extra special. I used the same patterns for each box; flipping the pattern so they coordinated.

I know some of you might think it's frivolous to use your designer paper for gift boxes. Now consider how much DSP you have stored up! Use it; you can do it!

And here is another version with the new True Love designer paper; all Black & White! It's from the upcoming 2021 Spring Catalog!

Save

I colored some of the flowers on the paper with both Rococo Rose and Purple Posy Blends markers. Then I added two ribbons; Black glittered and Purple Posy.

You can watch the video here. Scroll towards the end for the boxes.

Quite Curvy & Classic Christmas Strips

December 23, 2020

I totally enjoy making these strip cards! It seems like I always have little strips of paper left over from a project. Most times I can toss them without a thought but now & then I have trouble doing that. This technique puts them to great use!

Save

You can catch my tips on this technique in the video below.

I used the Classic Christmas designer paper on this card. It's available now through January 4th or while supplies last. The colors are Shaded Spruce, Sahara Sand & Cherry Cobbler. See it here.

I also used the Quite Curvy stamp set and dies. They are available now and will be in the upcoming 2021 Spring Catalog. See them here now.
