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.

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!

  • Apple Harvest Fun Fold card

    We made this sweet Apple Harvest card at my card clubs in September.  I love the bright colors paired with Black! 

    Apple Harvest Club Sept Save

    The colors include Parakeet Party, Real Red and Black.  As you can see I gave them a choice of apple images on the front. The left card above has the large apple bunch and the right card below has a pair of apples with blossoms.  And inside the card is a single apple. 

    The Apple Harvest stamp set is in the 2022 Holiday catalog.  The new Apple Blossom dies that coordinate with it are available in September with our Perfect Partners promotion.  See them here. 

    All were colored with Blends markers – Parakeet Party, Crumb Cake & Sweet Sorbet.  I added a bit of color lifter on the large red apples to achieve a look of shine & reflection.

  • A new fun fold card with This Birthday Piggy; join me Live tonight!

    We're making this cool fun fold card tonight on my Stamp with Me live here on Facebook. It's called a 'pillar' fold card.  Join in and watch or prep your pieces and stamp along with me Live. 

    This Birthday Piggy Save

    I'm featuring the This Birthday Piggy bundle seen here.  You can get them separately also, but you won't save the 10% then.

    The stamp set is in the 2022-23 Stampin' Up! Annual Catalog seen here.   These coordinating dies are available in September with our Perfect Partners promotion.  See them here.   

    This Birthday Piggy Save

    The side pillars fold in toward the middle so it fits in a standard A2 size envelope.

    My colors include Polished Pink, Parakeet Party, White & Black.  The designer paper on the sides is our Black & White designs seen here. 

    I used our Blends markers to color the images – Polished Pink, Flirty Flamingo, Basic Gray & Parakeet Party.  

    See those neat confetti pieces?  Those are actually 'windows' die-cut in the White CS so the Pink CS shows through.  They're part of the Playful Piggy dies. Same with the grass, banner and pennants.  The stars are punched with the Witch Hat punch.
