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!

3 quick cards from a 6 X 6″ template! Video too!

May 18, 2020

In case you missed it I've uploaded the video for my easy template for 6 X 6" designer paper to make three cards quickly! I also have a project sheet that includes the template, directions, additional measurements and more.

Save

You can use any piece of 6 X 6" designer paper you'd like! Let the colors in your paper help you decide on the card bases and accent colors and embellishments. It's really fun to make cards when you have this easy guide.

As you can see, depending on your designer paper, colors and orientation the cards don't look the same!

Tomorrow is the last day; get two pre-cut kits and save on shipping!

May 15, 2020
tomorrow is the last day to get either of my May pre-cut kits to go. I have two choices! You can choose one or both! If you want both I can combine shipping to save you money.

First is the Quick Cards kit; 10 cards including a few unique folds. And they're not all flowery either! Of course you can 'add' flowers if you'd like to……

Save

This kit to go includes $20 in product AND a pre-cut cards kit; all for $28 plus shipping. The product alone costs just over $24 so you're getting the 10 cards kit for less than $4. It includes a full pack of 6 X 6" Regals designer series paper, a full spool of White Flax ribbon and 1/2 pkg. of Holiday rhinestones.

I used the So Sentimental stamp set on my cards. You can substitute any stamp set you own though.

There are three options for you with this kit. Purchase and see them all here.
1. First is the complete bundle that includes the pre-cut cards, product, pdf tutorial AND the So Sentimental stamp set for $59.50.
2. Second choice is the pre-cut cards kit, product and pdf tutorial for $36.
3. Lastly you can purchase just the pdf tutorial; with no kit or product for $15.
*I have a limited number of these kits available. If you want one; do not wait! Go here to get yours.

**If you are already subscribed to my monthly kits to go I have one of these set aside for you. Do not order another!

~~~

The second available kit includes these gorgeous cards! Stock up on your supply of masculine cards with this kit that requires NO stamping!

Save

It includes $18 in products including 1/2 pkg of Come Sail Away Memories & More cards pack and Memories & More cards and envelopes plus a pre-cut kit needed to complete your cards. It also includes one package of Basic Brads, two spools of twine (Navy & Navy/Sahara Sand) and a few Sail Away trinkets.

I have a limited supply of this kit on hand because many of the products are retiring. Many of these items are on sale right now on the Last Chance list here.

Purchase it here by May 17th.

Both of these kits will be mailed out at the end of this month, which gives you some wonderful crafting time.
