Great silhouette cards with Simply Marbelous DSP with Honeybee Home bundle

I saw a group of cards made by France Labrecque and I just had to make some.  Look!

Save

I changed them up a bit but kept the same premise of a die-cut circle with these gorgeous Honeybee Blooms dies in silhouette.  I added a bit of color on the White layer before texturing them.  The card above features the Gingham embossing folder.

Here are the 6 cards I made; one with each color of Designer Paper in the Simply Marbelous DSP pack.  This beautiful paper is FREE through February, 2022 with any $50 Stampin' Up! order.  See it here.

I cannot decide which color is my favorite but I lean towards the yellow or blue. 

Save

The embossing folder on the card above is called Macrame; it's in the 2022 Stampin' Up! Annual Catalog or seen here. 

Save

For each card I used one of the greetings in the Honeybee Home stamp set which is part of the Honeybee Home bundle seen here.  The greeting dies are from the Ornate Frames dies in the Annual catalog seen here.  

Save

This incredible Simply Marbelous 6 X 6" DSP is still available; if you want it I'd get it now while they still have a supply.  It's always possible it could run out before the end of February. 

Save

One neat thing about this pretty designer paper is each sheet has a softer, less distinct pattern and this beautiful swirly pattern. And each color is a combination of light & dark hues so it works with many, many shades of each color!

Which is your favorite?

Here's the video!  Click on the picture below to watch it. These cards are the 3rd project I share.

• Neat fun fold card 3 ways! With free tutorial & video

  February 9, 2026

  ---

  We made this special card at my January card clubs. They could choose between 3 colors and themes too!

  Save

  I featured the Addressed to You stamp set for all three cards. See the cute ovals & rectangle with the ‘filled in’ images on the right? Those are all part of this unique stamp set! See it here.

  Save

  I used the retiring Textured Notes dies seen here. They’re the stitched edge rectangle dies used twice on this card. They are on the last chance list right now and reduced in price too!

  Save

  This card opens with a type of flip/flap feel. Here’s how we cut off the tabs on the card base. Once you score your card you’ll make a pencil mark from the top and bottom at 1″. Then trim off the corners.

  Save

  My colors include Pool Party, White and either Pretty in Pink, Fresh Freesia or Peach Pie.

  I created a free project sheet for this card with measurements, supplies and step by step directions. Click here to print or download it.

  Save

  More details:

  • I used the images that finished the lined oval & rectangle to decorate the inside ‘left’ edge on the cards.
  • We used Blends markers to color in the small images.
  • The DSP is the Beach Boardwalk designer paper for the left edge.
  • The greetings are from the stamp set called ‘The Right Words’ seen here. It’s one of my favorite greeting sets.

  Save

  I was in the middle of the video tutorial for this card but the video failed right before I started the project. And I made my last packet. So I do not have a video for it. But hopefully the project sheet above helps you out.

• A new fun fold card with the Nature Walk suite; wow!

  February 6, 2026

  ---

  Karen’s swap card blows me away! I haven’t seen a card fold like this one before and I just love her color choices too.

  Save

  Isn’t it beautiful?! Can you tell that the front, main layers are ‘caught’ on the diagonal textured layer on the lower left? That’s what is keeping the flap tucked in.
  This is how it opens:

  Save

  Her colors include Cloud Cover, Secret Sea, Old Olive & Basic White. I’ll share measurements below.
  Did you catch the pretty textured layer? That’s the new Stone & Vine 3D embossing folder. And did you notice the ‘wood look’ die-cut in Olive near the greeting? That and the greeting are included the Nature’s Symphony bundle seen here.

  She used the Nature Walk suite for her card which includes gorgeous nature focused products. See it all here.

  Save

  Here’s how she finished the inside of her card:

  Save

  Measurements as follows:

  -card base 7″ X 5 1/2″ scored at 4 1/4″
  -White 7″ X 5″ scored at 3 3/4″. Make a mark on the shorter end at 1″ from the top and the bottom. Trim off the rectangle to the score line for the front flap
  -Secret Sea front is 3″ square, side is 2 1/2″ X 5 1/4″, the diagonal piece is 2 1/2″ X 2 3/4″ cut in half and inside is 4″ X 5 1/4″
  -DSP front is 2 3/4″ square, side is 2 1/4″ X 5″

  Thank you for creating and sharing this amazing card with us Karen!
