More fun fold cards!


Each day this week I'm sharing many of the Fun Fold card swaps made by my talented Flowerbug's Team.  They are amazing! 

First is Candace's pretty Double Triangle card:

This card is so fun to make and to receive! You can find all kinds of tutorials for this fold.  Here's a video I made for it: 

The best thing about this card fold is how perfectly it uses both your card stock and designer paper without waste!  And it makes 2 cards at the same time!

Start out with a full 8 1/2" X 11" piece of card stock.  Score it down the center both ways; at 5 1/2" and 4 1/4".  Then cut in half on the diagonal like this:

Now cut two pieces of designer paper measuring 4" X 5 1/4" in half.  Use double sided paper for the best use; two for each card.

Candace used the retiring Peaceful Poppies designer paper seen here, the Painted Label dies and the Peaceful Moments bundle.  I love that splash of designer paper inside the card!

Marilyn made this beautiful card with the Ornate Garden suite of products seen here; an early release from the upcoming Annual Catalog.  

  • The Olive card base is 4 1/4" X 8 3/4" scored at 5 1/2"
  • The Terracotta Tile layer is 4" X 3"
  • Designer paper is 3 7/8" X 2 7/8"
  • The Olive stitched rectangle is 3 1/2" X 2 1/4" 
  • The Terracotta Tile die-cut is from the Ornate Frames dies
  • The White daisy layer is 1 1/8" X 2 1/2", the White inside is 4" X 5 1/5"
  • Stamps are from the Ornate Style & Ornate Thanks stamp sets 

Paula made this striking fun fold card using the Peaceful Poppies designer paper and the Painted Poppies bundle.

This Peaceful Poppies designer paper is retiring and is on the Last Chance list now while supplies last here.  I'm so glad the Painted Poppies bundle will be returning in the new Annual catalog! 

Measurements:

  • Poppy Parade main card 5 1/2" X 8 1/2" scored at 2 1/8" and 6 3/8"
  • Striped DSP is 1 7/8" X 5 1/4"
  • Poppies DSP is 1 3/4 X 3 3/4"
  • White strips are 2" X 4" 

I hope you're enjoying these fun fold cards made by my talented Flowerbug's Team!  More tomorrow!

  • Daisy Garden stamp for easy cards!


    I had time to play with this pretty Daisy Garden background stamp and created this summery card: 

    I stamped the image in Polished Pink ink onto a panel of 3 3/4" X 5 1/4" White card stock.  I colored it in with blends markers in Polished Pink and Granny Apple Green.  I did add a bit of yellow to the daisy centers with a sponge dauber. I colored the White ribbon with the light Polished Pink Blends marker before tying a bow. 

    Next I cut the White CS into three panels measuring 1 1/4" wide before I adhered them to the main card. 

    The 'thanks' greeting is from the Artistically Inked stamp set.  It's stamped onto one of the die-cuts in the Picture This die set seen here.  I love that you get multiple quick 'stitched' die-cuts from just one cut.  They're great for windows or greeting dies and with just one cut and you can use the window of the die-cuts!

  • Want to make a Bay Window card? It’s easy! Stamp with Me Live tonight at 7:30 pm CT!


    Tonight on my Stamp with Me Live we're making 'Bay Window' cards.  These are so fun and actually quite simple to make.  Scroll down to see the measurements.  

    You can watch the video here on my Facebook page.  If you're not on FB you can see it later when I upload it to my YouTube channel here.  *Don't forget to follow me!

    It starts out with a standard 4 1/4" X 11" piece of card stock. Add some scored lines and designer paper and you're halfway there!  

    For this first example I chose to use the Plentiful Plants bundle.  The Bloom Where You're Planted designer paper is on sale in July. You can see it here.  

    I used the Everyday Label punch for the greetings here.  There's an easy way to create a curved edge and a perfect layer.  Watch tonight to see how.  

    Here's the second version I made with the Beauty of the Earth designer paper.  It's also on sale too!  

    I used the same stamp set; Plentiful Plants for the greeting.  I did add a few pieces of the In Good Taste DSP here for the wood paper.  It works so well for nature themed cards.  

    Here's the video!

    Bay Window Cards Measurements:

    • Card base – 4 1/4" x 11". Score on long side at 3/8", 1 7/8", 3 5/8", 5 1/8", 5 1/2"
    • 1st DSP – 4 1/8" x 6". Cut in order at 1 3/8", 1 5/8", 1 3/8", 1 5/8"
    • 2nd DSP – 3 strips at ¼” X 4 1/8”
    • White inside 34 1/8” X 3 ¼”
