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!

Colorful Autumn Trees card with a baby wipe technique

September 10, 2025
Fall is in the air here in North Dakota. Look at this gorgeous & colorful autumn tree!

Save

It’s made with the new Autumn Trees bundle seen here. Here’s how I did the tree:
1. I stamped the tree onto Crumb Cake card stock using Crumb Cake ink.
2. Then die-cut it with the tree die from the bundle.
3. Next I inked up a baby wipe with fall colors of Garden Green, Crushed Curry, Pumpkin Pie and Cajun Craze. I rolled it up and pressed it onto the tree die-cut repeatedly.
4. Lastly I used a Crumb Cake Blends marker to add more detail to the trunk.

I used the Birch Wood embossing folder on the Vanilla background and lightly blended Cajun Craze ink over it. The greeting is from the More Messages bundle.

Stack, cut & shuffle card with Gathering Together DSP – free project sheet too!

September 9, 2025

Here’s another beautiful autumn themed card I shared on last week’s Live video.

Have you ever made a triple stack, cut & shuffle card? It’s a great way to make multiples of a card layout and use your designer paper. Simply cut three different patterns of designer paper at 3 3/4″ X 5″. Stack them together and cut all at the same time. This way they’ll all fit together well once you shuffle them into 3 piles. What’s neat is that you don’t really have to measure your cuts! Watch the video below to see how it’s done.

The designer paper here is the new Gathering Together seen here. It’s gorgeous with Champagne foil accents. This paper is part of our Online Exclusives. To see all of these just released new items click here. Or download & save the Download Online Exclusives flyer

My colors include Early Espresso, Crushed Curry and Cajun Craze. The greeting and stamped die-cuts are from the Gathering Moments bundle seen here. The greeting die-cuts are from the Traditional Labels dies seen here. They’re my new favorite set of label dies!
