Gorgeous Petals of Beauty fun fold card with video

April 6, 2026

This pretty card was a big favorite of my club gals in March.

It features the Brushed with Beauty suite which includes many items that are now on the Last Chance list!
The Petals of Beauty bundle was used mostly for the stamped images and die-cuts. See it here.

My card base is Very Vanilla with the following additional colors: Mossy Meadow, Petal Pink, Darling Duckling.

Look at the airy Vanilla flower petal die-cuts above. They are not meant to match which I love!

You cannot tell but there is a window sheet sandwiched between the top and bottom layers. It adds a bit of surprise to the card. The rounded leaf die-cut is cut from the new Wood Grain Wonders 12 X 12″ specialty paper seen here. It has a very faint wood grain to each sheet in all wood tones. I added a bit of Mossy Meadow ink to the one on the right above.

I added designer paper to the inside layers as well; all from the Brushed with Beauty DSP seen here.

Gingerbread & Peppermint fun fold cards – easy to replicate!

December 24, 2021
Merry Christmas!! I hope you enjoy a wonderful holiday.

We made this neat card at my December Card Clubs. I love the double Z fold design. And it makes great use of both card stock and designer paper!

I used the Gingerbread & Peppermint bundle for the stamps & dies. Unfortunately it's sold out already. And so is the Heartwarming Hugs designer paper. Retiring Holiday Catalog time is so hard!

But you can use this card layout with other designs and occasions. One thing I love about this card is that the inside accordion piece is perfectly sized to get 4 out of an 8 1/2" X 11" piece of card stock so it's great for mass producing.

Plenty of Patterns with new Tropical dies; video tutorial

December 23, 2021

This card in Pacific Point & White is so pretty! I shared how to make it on last week's FB Live.

Save

The window frame is made with the Stitched Rectangle dies on a piece of White CS 4" X 5 1/4". The pretty die-cut leaf is from a new set of dies coming out in the 2022 Jan-June catalog called Tropical Layer dies.

I used White Craft ink with the Plenty of Pattern masks seen here & below. I did not use a sponge; I pressed the ink pad directly onto & through the mask on a separate piece of Pacific Point CS. You can watch how it's done in the video here. It's the first project.

Save

The greeting is from the Artfully Layered stamp set that coordinates with the Tropical Layer dies. It will be in a bundle at 10% off next year.

Below is the video with these projects & lots more!

New Artfully Layered stamp set with Plenty of Pattern masks; embossed grid technique & video

December 22, 2021

Here's a card made in my series featuring the Plenty of Pattern masks from a recent FB Live seen here. I think it's super neat!

Save

I explain how it's done in the video here. Basically I laid the mask over my card stock and repeatedly pressed my Versamark ink pad directly over it. Then I heat embossed with Clear embossing powder & my heat tool. I love this effect!

Save

The greeting is from the Artfully Layered stamp set in the upcoming 2022 Jan-June catalog. It will be in a bundle with the Tropical Layer dies at 10% off.

After I created the embossed grid background layer I used a scalloped stitched rectangle from the Stitched So Sweetly dies to die-cut a piece from the center. Then I adhered the outside piece to my Black layer and added the center piece on Stampin' Dimensionals. I wanted the Black to show a bit behind it.

Save

The oval die-cut for the greeting is from the Beautiful Layers dies; also from the upcoming new catalog. Adding a 1/2" Black strip brings the Black outer layer forward a bit.

Below is the video with this project & lots more!
