Modern Christmas card idea

October 15, 2025

Today I have a gorgeous Christmas card idea from our October Team swap. Each month my Flowerbug’s swap cards with a chosen theme.
This first card was made by Jacki who chose the Modern Christmas suite.

Her colors include White, Black and Gold foil accents as indicated by the gorgeous Modern Christmas designer paper seen here. If you love it I have a pre-cut card kit or PDF tutorial you can opt in for too. And it’s also my free tutorial of the month for any online order.

The embossing folder is the So Swirly 3D and her greeting is from the Greetings for You Mix & Match ephemera seen here. This pack of greetings has 6 sheets of gold foil printed greetings!

She used many of the dies in the Ornamental Christmas bundle seen here. I love the gold foil on the ornament. This card is truly elegant!

I love the elegance of the Black, White & Gold.

I’ll be sharing many more of our October Christmas themed card swaps by my Team this week and next. Stay tuned!

Angled Gate-Fold card with a latch closure; template & video tutorial

October 12, 2021

I shared these cards last night on my Monday night Stamp with Me Live. They're called Angled Gate-Fold cards.

Save

These first two cards feature the Painted Christmas designer paper, the Thinking, Thanks & Peace stamp set & Seasonal Label dies. The large greeting die-cut was cut smaller by cutting once and reinserting it to trim off a bit. (shared in the video)

Save

On this card I added dimensionals to only the very left side of the greeting so it could work as a 'latch'. The right side flap slips between the left side and the die-cut greeting to keep the card closed flat. *Watch the video below to see how it's done.

Save

I created an easy template for both the card base and the additional designer paper layer.

Save

One important thing to note about the template below for the DSP layer is to be sure to check the direction & side you prefer before trimming off the angles. You can use this template for both sides; just trim off the opposite edge.

Save

I'll share the other two cards I made on Thursday; they're totally different!
