Great cards made with the Celebration Expression Memories & More pack

April 3, 2026

I hadn’t touched the Celebration Expression Memories & More cards yet; so I found an hour or so to create these:

Aren’t they fun? These printed Memories & More cards come in both 4″ X 6″ and 3″ X 4″ cards. They are discounted and retiring! See them here. I did use the ‘Memories & More cards and envelopes’ as the card bases which made it super simple. These cards are a nice size – 4 1/4″ X 6 1/4″ which is larger than our traditional size. They are now in the last chance list and retiring soon!

You’re likely wondering where the greetings came from. And I didn’t stamp a thing! Each of the greetings came from the Saying Something Ephemera pack. These are fabulous! They’re also discounted, in low inventory right now and will likely retire soon. See them here.

I’ll share these cards in sets of 4 next:

I did add a few layers of card stock on these cards to bring some solid backgrounds to the greetings. I also added some rhinestone gems & ribbons – Balmy Blue gingham, Timid Tiger 1/4″ and Bubble Bath 1/8″ ribbons.

It was so much fun to simply play with the cards, layering them or adding CS strips here & there. What a perfect way to create without a lot of product. This would be perfect to take to a crop or crafty play day with friends.

Team Card swaps with a Clean & Simple theme

March 19, 2025

This week I'm sharing our Team card swaps from March. Our theme was Clean & Simple which can be a challenge for some. We also couldn't use any designer series paper!

First up is a stunning card made by Deloris.

Save

She masked her White card stock to sponge yellow & blue ink to create a pretty background for the floral stamp. This flower is from the Spotlight on Nature stamp set. Her card also has 3 layers of White – the bottom layer is textured. Gorgeous!

Ginny also used the Spotlight on Nature stamp set on her beautiful card:

Save

She used Petunia Pop with Granny Apple green and popped up her flowers on Dimensionals. Well done!

Kim is a first time swapper in our group and did a great job on her card:

Save

She used the Thoughtful Wishes stamp set and the Exposed Brick 3D embossing folder here. Her colors include Fresh Freesia and Blackberry Bliss. Sweet & simple! Good job Kim!

Candy made this adorable card with the Resourceful Rusty stamp set.

Save

Her colors include Gray Granite, Real Red, & Balmy Blue. She trimmed off half of her card front so the circle dies & main image hang over.

Other products include: New Mini Corrugated embossing folder, New Textured Notes dies, Stylish Shapes and Spotlight on Nature dies. Blends markers for coloring. Love that tail!

More swaps will be shared tomorrow!

Corner DSP pop up fun fold card with video tutorial & free project sheet

March 18, 2025

I shared this card on last week's video and am happy to share it with you here today. I also have a free project sheet below too.

It features the Lovely Garden designer paper seen online here.

Save

My card base is Melon Mambo with Black, White & Garden Green accents. The greeting is from the Layering Leaves stamp set and the Stylish Shapes dies.

I made a second version during the video (seen here) in different colors.

Save

The stitched die-cut I used on the DSP is from the new Textured Notes dies seen here. I love these! I bet they'll sell fast!

Save

I fussy cut extra flowers to pop up over the printed flower in the DSP.

Save

Here's the template for the DSP part of this card. My generous friend Susie Wood shared this with me.

Save

In the photo below you can see how this card opens. The DSP measures 6" side and 7 1/4" tall and is scored at 2" from the upper and left sides. Then fold it at an angle matching up the score lines. Watch the video below to understand this.

Pretty Center pop-out fun fold card with free project sheet & video tutorial

March 17, 2025

I'm so excited to share this super neat fun fold card with you today! It's called a Center Pop-out fun fold. I found this neat fold from my friend Terri Gaines.

Save

I chose to feature the Thankful Garden bundle seen here and the Lovely Garden Designer paper seen here.

Save

I love these stencils! They are so easy to work with. Watch the video below for a special tip on lining them up.

This card looks like it might be hard to assemble but with the center 'brace' that helps the center panel pop out it's quite simple. It will really help you understand how to make it if you watch the video tutorial below.

Save

My colors include Melon Mambo with Blueberry Bushel. Here's how the card looks with the inside brace added before I adhered the center panel:

Save

I made the yellow/green version on the video to show a different color combo.

Save

I colored the flowers by using the stencils included in the bundle. So easy and makes you look like a true artist with the high and low lights added with blending brushes.
