The last of the Beautiful Fun Fold card swaps


This is the last bunch of Fun Fold cards this week; each one has been made by my talented Flowerbug's Team.  

Sue made this pretty and unique card using the Positive Thought stamp set. 

She is super creative and loves to create her own ideas.  Look at this unique card!

She used the Positive Thoughts stamp set and the Cross of Hope dies (on sale right now for just $10.80; they were $27.00!)

  • Petal Pink – 5 1/2" X 4 1/4"
  • Blackberry Bliss 6 3/4" X 5 3/4" scored at 4"
  • Whisper White – 7 1/2" X 5" scored at 3 5/8"

Next is Karen's pretty card featuring the Magnolia Blooms stamp set and the Magnolia Lane designer paper.  This pretty paper is also on sale; at $8.05 right now while supplies last here.  She colored the flower in with the Petal Pink blends markers.

Candy made this beautiful card, also with the Positive thoughts stamp set and coordinating Nature's Thoughts dies.  

That gorgeous rectangle die-cut is from the Ornate Layers dies here.  They're amazing!!!  Her colors are Rich Razzleberry, Very Vanilla, Crumb Cake and a splash of Coastal Cabana.  Here's the inside view:

Mary made this pretty card using the Free as a Bird stamp set and the Bird Ballad designer paper.

  • Green & Gold fun fold card with Changing Leaves bundle; & a free project sheet too!


    Today I'm sharing the second card I made during last week's Live video. My projects focused on new Online Exclusive products.  There's lots of beautiful texture on this monochromatic card.

    This card features multiple new Online Exclusive products released last week.

    Did you know that Stampin' Up! releases a bunch of new online extras multiple times a year?  These items are not in any printed publication and are seen only online. Most people don't realize that they can be ordered online or at local events.

    • Green & Gold specialty DSP seen here
    • Greetings of the Season stamp & dies bundle seen here
    • Changing Leaves stamp, dies & hybrid embossing folder bundle seen here

    I'll be featuring this pretty Green & Gold specialty designer paper for one of my upcoming card kits:

    Here's the inside view of this card.  I call it a center flap fold. It allows you to use two different pieces of coordinating designer paper.

  • Changing Leaves Hybrid embossing folder technique; with free project sheet & video tutorial


    I joined quite a few swaps featuring our newest group of Online Exclusives and this is one of the cards I made:

    It features the Changing Leaves bundle seen here.  It includes a stamp & die bundle AND a coordinating hybrid embossing folder as well. 

    I used two different embossing techniques on this card. If you look closely at the die-cut leaf you'll see there's ink in the recessed part of the leaf.  That was done by adding ink to the embossing folder before I cut & embossed the leaves.  Please watch the video here to see how it's done. 

    My colors include the new Basic Beige and Mossy Meadow with White. I also ran a piece of Basic Beige CS through the clean folder and added ink with a blending brush afterwards. 

    In the two cards below you'll see that the Beige card stock looks different.  The left card was done by blending Mossy Meadow ink very lightly over the textured CS. The right card was done by adding ink to the embossing folder before I textured it. Two totally different results! Again; watch the video below to see how it's done. 

    For the greetings I used another new Online Exclusive stamp set called Everyday Greetings. It's a fabulous greeting set. See it here. 

    The oval die-cut is from a new set of dies called Greetings of the Season dies seen here. They're paired with a stamp set but are great on their own too. 

    Did you know that Online Exclusives simply mean that they're seen online and not in any printed publication? Anyone can order them! See them all here; there are tons of them!

    The adorable Lily Pond Lane designer paper is the star of these colorful cards. I created 5 card designs; 3 of which are fun folds. What I like about this DSP is how versatile it is; young or old, men, women or kids – it's great for anyone! 

    Each month I create two card kits where the DSP is the focus of the projects. These cards can be purchased as a pre-cut kit to go or choose the PDF tutorial option. Those who choose the kit will make 2 each of the 5 cards for a total of 10 cards.
