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!

  • Beautiful Butterflies with Mixed Florals swap card; free project sheet

    Here's one more pretty card I made for an online swap in December.  I just love the colors!  

    Beautiful Butterflies swap Save

    I used Petal Pink, Mossy Meadow & Poppy Parade; all taken from the Mixed Florals designer paper seen here.  It's from our newest Online Exclusives release. See all of the newest items here. 

    There's just something about this layout that I love.  It might be the balance of the vertical & horizontal layers along with the circle.  It just feels right. 

    The greeting and butterfly die-cut are from the new Beautiful Butterflies bundle seen here.  

    BEAUTIFUL BUTTERFLIES BUNDLE (ENGLISH) Save

    There's so many neat things about this new bundle – the wonderful greetings, the pretty Hybrid embossing folder that matches the butterfly die and the fact that there's a large butterfly die that creates a butterfly folded card front like the one below!

  • Storybook Moments fun fold card with video & free project sheet

    I shared this easy fun fold card on last week's video. I made it for an online swap in December.  

    Storybook fun fold . Save

    It features the Storybook Moments designer series paper from our new 2025 Spring catalog. It reminds many people of Beatrix Potter. You can see this unique paper here.   It has two sheets of printed die-cuts in each pack that make it easy to add coordinating layers. 

    I love this fun fold because it uses your card stock so effectively.  It starts with a card base at 11" X 4 1/4".  Simply trim off 3 1/4" square from one end and use it as the extra layer on the front flap.  The DSP in the center is 3" square and the side is 2" X 4". Super simple and a great use of your double sided designer paper.

    I chose to highlight the red fruits in the Fruit Salad DSP along with a bit of Daffodil Delight or Granny Apple Green.  I absolutely love how our projects coordinate so perfectly!  This paper is free during Sale-a-Bration. 

    FRUIT SALAD 6" X 6" (15.2 X 15.2 CM) DESIGNER SERIES PAPER Save

    The greeting is from the Mixed Labels Online Exclusive stamp set. I love the sentiments and have used them a lot. And the coordinating dies are awesome!

    It's an easy fun fold card that has an extra fold on the right. Fold it back towards the center and add a coordinating strip of DSP to show off our double-sided papers!  I love this quick & easy fun fold and how well it makes good use of your designer paper.  I hope you save it and give it a try.
