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!

The Gorgeous Leaves of Holly bundle is not just for Christmas!

October 14, 2022

The Leaves of Holly bundle is back! It was unavailable for awhile but it's back in stock now.

I made this pretty card for last month's Flowerbug's Team swap. The theme was Fall or Halloween. I wanted to show that this bundle isn't just for Christmas. What do you think?

Save

I used Bermuda Bay, Blackberry Bliss and a bit of Old Olive here. The greeting is from the Charming Sentiments set seen here.

After I stamped the card panel I felt it was a bit busy so I added a layer of Vellum card stock over it. I love the soft feel that the vellum gives!

Here's a peek at the Leaves of Holly bundle. It's full of pretty images and wonderful dies. The greeting die-cut with the leaves attached is my very favorite; see it on the bottom left below. See it in my store here.

Save

For added texture I added sponging around the edge and on the die-cut leaves.

You can see another group of cards I did on a video I just shared. It features my 5 at a time templates.

Pretty Soft Seedlings card & video; an easy fun fold layout

October 12, 2022
I've sure been enjoying the Soft Seedlings stamp set. The pretty maple leaf has so much texture and depth and the greetings are some of my favorites. I think I've used it more than any set in the Holiday catalog!

Save

We just purchased a red maple tree and planted it in our backyard this weekend. It's red foliage is beautiful!

For this card I chose to stamp the leaves in two colors – Soft Suede & Coastal Cabana. I know they're not correct leaf colors, but it's fun to go outside the box at times.

Save

It's one of my favorite fun folds; so easy to do and it can be jazzed up easily with elements & greetings.

I chose to stamp directly on one of the Leaf Label elements in the Leaf Label & Amber gem combo pack seen here. Unfortunately they are out of stock right now; but it will be available again in November.

Save

The package includes 25 leaves and amber gems too; all for $8. They're so fun to play with; you can add texture, or stamp or sponge color on them.

Save

It might be hard to see the measurements in the photo above. Here they are again:
- Card base 4 ¼” X 5 ½”
- Soft Suede 3 ¼” X 11” scored at 5 ½”
- Vanilla 3” X 5 ¼” (2 pieces)
Here's a photo of the inside. I kept is simple since I'll use it as a thank you card.
