We’re making explosion pop-up cards!!

On my Stamp with Me Live I shared these cards and how easy it is to make an explosion card.  

These cards look pretty ordinary from the front but there's a surprise inside; see below:

Isn't it cool?  And it's super easy to do.  It's a 6" square of designer paper that you fold in halves with a bone folder. No measuring at all!

Here's the template for the explosion card.

Here's a masculine birthday made with the Plaid Tidings designer paper and Many Mates stamp set.

These are so fun to make.  And you can add a bit more fun to the card by adding in some confetti, punched pieces or sequins to the inside.  What a surprise they'll enjoy!

  • Christmas Classic with the pretty Brushed Gold cards & envelopes; with video & free project sheet

    I shared how to make this pretty card on last week's Live video:

    Christmas Classics framed Save

    It features two of my favorite products from the 2023 Holiday catalog; the Christmas Classics bundle and the beautiful Brushed Gold cards & envelopes. 

    BRUSHED GOLD CARDS & ENVELOPES Save

    I cut the card base in half so I could get two card fronts from it. I paired the gold accents with Shaded Spruce and the beautiful, detailed die-cut from the Christmas Classics dies.  See the bundle here.  I think it's absolutely gorgeous.  It's rare that I like the dies as well as the stamps!

    I shared a second card made with the other half of the Brushed Gold card base in the video here.  I hope you watch it! I will share the details on that card tomorrow.
