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!

I demo'd them on last week's Live so you could see how wonderful they are. Click here to watch.

How does the BOGO work?

It's quite unusual in that the second kit at 50% off can be the more expensive one.

Such as; buy one for $12 and get a second kit at $20-25 at half off! Crazy but true!

The first kit I'm sharing is the Light the Candles kit seen here. It includes everything you need to complete these 8 cards.

I love how bright & colorful this kit is and the dimensional strips are easy to use. The cute glittery prints are quite eye catching.

These kits are 'all inclusive' which means everything is supplied for you. Many include the ink and stamps and others have pre-printed sentiments with no stamping needed. There's something for every taste or need. Click here to see them all.

The Robot Buddies kit is perfect for kids. It has a neat robot stamp set in it and includes TWO ink spots! too.
