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!

Inspired Thoughts Bundle; a beautiful scene

May 12, 2021
I created this card for an online swap I participated in last month. I just love it!

The main 4 trees die-cut can be cut apart which opens a whole world of possibilities!

Here's how I made it:
1. Die-cut the trees and hill using the Inspiring Canopy dies (seen below).
2. Cut the 4 trees apart at the bottom connection point. Set aside.
3. Sponge clouds using Pool Party ink onto the 4" X 5 1/4" Basic White CS. I used the Basic Border dies (cloud).
4. Sponge Calypso Coral ink onto the bottom third of this piece.
5. Adhere the trees to the edge of each side.
6. Add the hill piece; trim off excess from hill and trees. Adhere to the Calypso Coral card base.
7. Finish with Genial Gems.

Fresh In colors with new Shimmer Vellum flowers

May 11, 2021

I'm not sure if I'll ever get tired of playing with the new 2021-23 In colors. They are fresh and spring-like; almost fruity.

For today's card I added four 1 1/4" X 4" strips of the new 6 X 6" In Color designer paper to a standard 5 1/2" X 8 1/2" white card base. It had prominent placement on my In Color display last week at my New Catalog Launch party.

Save

I cut out a die-cut label from the Scalloped Contours dies and stamped my greeting (from the Sweet Ice Cream set) using Soft Succulent ink.

The flowers are from the soon to retire (June 2021) Perennial dies. The colored flowers are cut from the new Shimmer Vellum; available here in all 5 of our In Colors! So pretty!!

Save

I colored the pearls on the flowers with the In Color Blends markers. Having these coordinating Blends markers means I can color any gem I want to match! Two of these Blends are already on back-order! They are HOT items!

Circle Celebration Easy 8 Card Wonder Kit to Go!

May 10, 2021
As you know I love creating One Sheet Wonders. I have created lots of them in the years I've been a demonstrator. I create the cards and my husband makes the templates. You can see them all here in my Shop.

For these cards I used my Easy 8 Card Wonder template and the Circle Celebration stamp set. You can see the stamp set here.

Save

The colors are Poppy Parade, Night of Navy, Bermuda Bay and Daffodil Delight. I wanted them to be bright and happy celebratory cards. I think I succeeded!

For the greetings I used the stamp sets Many Mates & Itty Bitty Birthdays but you can easily substitute what you own.

Here's a look at how I made the main 'wonder' piece. I used slightly different colors on this sheet, but it gives you the idea.

Save

I stamped all over a sheet of 8 1/2" X 11" White card stock; the printed template is on the reverse side. After stamping I flip it over and cut on the printed lines. Each piece is numbered so I know which one goes with which card in the tutorial. The PDF tutorial includes measurements for other pieces needed.

You can purchase the PDF tutorial here.

There is also a kit to go option for $28. It includes the following:
- Circle Celebration photopolymer stamp set
- 8 pre-cut cards including layers, punched and die-cut pieces
- The printed 8 1/2" X 11" White card stock
- The complete PDF sent via email
*You will need the inks in the colors stated above (or similar colors), a paper trimmer and adhesive. The kit does not include stamped images, gems or ribbon.

If you want the pre-cut kit to go contact me at lagreff60@gmail.com. I cannot give a link to purchase here due to SU regulations.

I have two kits to go this month; see the other one here. Opt in for both and save on shipping!
